If McDaniel can’t get players to get to meetings in time, he certainly can’t control anything DURING the game. And the biggest thing to show you there’s no hope is the fact that while we’re just now finding out all dysfunction (other than the fact that it shows up in the field), Grier is in the building! It’s no way this is all news to him! The fact that HE tolerates this is another HUGE bad sign. And I knew then that Fangio leaving was dysfunctional Dolphins stuff
Spot on Mike! The one thing I'd disagree with you with is Grier and McDaniel not getting fired if we win 7 or 8 games next year. I think we are only going to win 6-8 games and both of them will be gone. The big question will be does Ross hand ownership over to his daughter or someone else? I get the feeling Ross isn't happy, but I think he went all in knowing he wasn't going thru another coach/GM search, or rebuild. If they make the playoffs, they'll most likely keep their jobs, and get at least another year, but if not, I just can't see it. We'll see in time, but I agree, this team isn't going to be any better next year.
(I’m new to your channel; Phin’s UP!) Q: HOW long have we been SOFT…5 years? 10 years? 15 years? How about our Strength and Conditioning Coach?…this season was YEAR SEVENTEEN, yes, 17 years of Dave Paluka running the show. DOES ANYONE think this is a common denominator? Do we use cutting edge technology? Do we have a “strength program”? Because if we did, we would have “conditioned players”!! How long have we called a finesse team, a soft team? WHY all the strained parts, the “soft tissue issues”? Does anyone demand players show growth or at least even weight training? I’ve asked this question to other hosts on these other forums and get no response; is it just ME?
The 2025 season is hopeless. People are saying that McDaniel and Grier need to come back next year bc of all the bad contracts and no knee GM will want to deal with it. News flash: Grier will have to restructure and make new contracts this offseason to make cap room. This will be a a same or worse problem next offseason! We may was well cut bait now! They still won’t address the qb position correctly. We’re at the point where we need to be drafting a QB early next year. They’ll probably go get a journeyman backup. We needed that last year!
“Oline is the hardest working group”. That’s not even McDaniel’s or this team’s DNA. They have easy practices and a lot of days off. How is anyone working hard??
Mike you are realist Ross has no clue but he does not care because he has all of us sucker fans that keep buying tickets and Merchandise you literally have 1000's of dollars siting behind you. What organization would you go to Miami or San Francisco it's a no brainer ? Grier and Mike McDaniel will both be on the hot seat what coach will even want to come here ?
I don’t know about everybody else but I’m getting tired of being picked on constantly about how stupid my team is, how weak my qb is but they’re just picking on me on a surface level. They don’t really see how stupid our GM and our coach really are.
Chris Grier's and Mike McDaniel's failure to build a dominant O-LINE has been the team's biggest problem. New people need to be hired. A new play caller needs to be hired for next season. McDaniel is not good enough to develop an effective running game. He is also not good enough to design effective passing patterns to combat defenses dropping 2 high safeties. Make the change!
Not a fan now, I think this may be Ross's last year. He couldn't sack Grier without sacking McDaniel and getting rid of Tua as he just paid them all. He created a mess, like he's done for all the time he's been here. Reading between the lines, Ross is done, he knows no good GM is coming to clean up the mess. After a losing season next year, Grier will retire with his secrets, Ross will pass the team on, Tua cut or traded. Finally, you will have a fairly clean slate. Not sure why he sold 10%, but that may become clearer in the future. The Dolphins need a complete burn down of this clown show.
After 3 days of reading and watching the collapse of the 24 season, I think you're right here. Old man Ross is cutting bait after 2025 and he's gonna watch it burn down with his fiddle. He's made his money on the dolphins. Leave the next guy with the bad contracts, negative cap space and the clean up. No owner in their right mind keeps Grier and McDaniel on after hearing the last 3 days of total ineptitude.
@MickRac10 It's more fun now to follow the Dolphins as a reality TV show. I'm worn down with frustration. Frustration with a billionaire making the same mistakes over and over. He's had great ideas but can't make them work. Sean Peyton, Brady, Jim Harbaugh, Lamar Jackson as QB. You can see and smell the ineptitude.. If Ross's family gets control, nothing will change, I suspect. Maybe they will sell when he dies. Can't see anything but a top 3 pick next year, which might be a blessing with some great potential QBs hopefully available.
@mikemars5984 I'm still confused on why Ross has to tamper with Brady or Payton. Brady was going to be a FA and Payton wanted to come here as far as Ive read. Even Harbaugh. I think Ross is just one of those billionaires who thinks he has to do underhanded things to get what he wants, when the easiest way is just to be a normal human being. He could be autistic lol
When I saw this nerd’s first order of business was to call and coddle Tua, I knew this was doomed. You have to come in with an objective view of this team with a win first attitude and that means Tua or any player may not fit that. Jimmy Johnson wanted to trade his HOF QB! McDaniel bangs the table for a contract extension for his QB that barely scored 7 pts in his only playoff game! Get this dufus outta here. He kisses Tua on the forehead on the field! Is he running a daycare or a football team??
I mean I don't think you're a qualified GM either. I may hate the lack of changes but I won't say they can't fix any of it until they don't. And if they don't next year ALL the main outs are after next season and everyone will be gone
Freaking Grier talking about a Super Bowl when He has not won a Playoff Game in 25 Years, We wanted Herbert not the Smurf that Breaks and Chokes every Year.
Ross doesn't care about the fan base because he has tourists and the fans from other teams buying tickets and coming down to the stadium for a 3 day vacation. Ross has stuck his middle finger up at all of us. Hes content with selling pieces off and he's made his money from his 500 mil investment. I believe the 10% he made of the sale to Tsai covered that 500 mil. This season is already lost. They may beat New England and the Jets once or twice, but every other game is already in doubt. If vrabel takes over the patriots, McDaniel wont be able to beat them because hes a far better game coach then McDaniel will ever be. And the pats have great draft picks in this draft with a ton of cap space and enough good roster players to turn that team around in 1 year.
McDaniel is too weak. It’s ok when we’re winning as everyone’s in good spirits,but he hasn’t got enough character to lift players when we’re losing. His dumbass play calling won’t get much respect from players either
Facts . That press conference was hard to watch.
It was a joke
Not sure how Ross didn’t back track and fire them after that presser. Wait, never mind. Ross doesn’t care.
Amen!!! Preach it brother!
Spot on Mike with the problems with this team!
GOLD. Spot on everything
You are the best Mike! Couldn't have said it better.
Thank you for the kind words
100% Agree Mike.
If McDaniel can’t get players to get to meetings in time, he certainly can’t control anything DURING the game.

My understanding is that we would not get comp picks for weaver because he was only here for one year. Needs to be at least two.
One of the Beat Writers Reported that fact about Weaver
What can we say mike our gm and head coach are super geniuses unless they are not

the problem that miami have with compensatory picks is that Chris (failed scout and patriots fan) Grier is making the picks.
Not going to any game next season. I'm done.
Only attitude to have
18:30 😂😂😂
Would love to have Lou for DC

Change NOTHING! And things will get better!

Just don't buy season tickets and merch.and I bet you the situation will quickly change
We can hope

Ross brings back GM, HC and QB and expects a different result 🙄
Only one question. How can two people be so incompetent and still have their jobs?
I mean I don't think you're a qualified GM either. I may hate the lack of changes but I won't say they can't fix any of it until they don't. And if they don't next year ALL the main outs are after next season and everyone will be gone
Freaking Grier talking about a Super Bowl when He has not won a Playoff Game in 25 Years, We wanted Herbert not the Smurf that Breaks and Chokes every Year.
That's all he does it talk a good game.
