    Mike mcdaniel may not survive end of season collapse

    Wouldn't have even thought this was a possibility a month ago but there seems to be some smoke here and we all know the saying about smoke and fire.

    MIKE MCDANIEL MAY NOT SURVIVE END OF SEASON COLLAPSE



    With the Dolphins on a five-game losing streak and on the verge of missing the playoffs, head coach Mike McDaniel’s job security is up in the air at the moment. Per Armando Salguero of Outkick, he is reporting; “If McDaniel survives, there’s no guarantee for defensive coordinator Josh Boyer, according to a club source.”

    Salguero is very plugged into the Miami Dolphins organization, and the fact he is reporting “IF” McDaniel survives tells you that Coach McDaniel’s seat is hot right now.

    Miami was 8-3 entering the month of December, leading the AFC East and in the #1 spot overall in the AFC. The failure to win a game or missing the playoffs, even if they win this week, would be a crippling collapse. One that may cost the head coach his job. Brian Flores, the last two years won 10 games and 9 games; the organization added three superstars and gave up multiple first-round draft picks, and spent over $305 million in contracts to Tyreek Hill, Terron Armstead, and Bradley Chubb. To win fewer games or equal games and miss the playoffs may be something McDaniel cannot survive.

    Many believe that defensive coordinator Josh Boyer and special teams coordinator Danny Crossman will be relieved of their duties after the season because both units have performed so poorly this year. The question ownership and the front office is facing is, if you are replacing two of your coordinators, does it make much sense to keep the head coach who hired them? Or is it easier to start over?

    The outcome of Sunday’s game vs. the Jets and if Miami makes or misses the playoffs will answer a lot of these questions, I am sure. But, should Miami lose (or win but not get the necessary help) and miss the playoffs, next week may be a busy week in Miami Gardens with some big changes coming.

    There is also the fact that last offseason, Miami was willing to part with draft capital to acquire Sean Payton and Payton was talking to assistant coaches and lining them up to take the Miami Dolphins head coaching job. That fell apart once the team was sued by previous head coach Brian Flores. Payton is itching to get back into coaching, per numerous reports, and Miami may still be an attractive spot for him.

    Sure seems like Denver and possibly Miami really want Sean Payton.

    It’s whoever Brady wants after he signs with Miami. Tua is already getting run out of town. Brady drooling at getting a shot with tyreek and waddle

    wouldn't surprise me.

    I feel for Tua. He's a nice kid but I don't think he will last much longer in the NFL. Miami should have drafted Herbert.

    He throws plenty fine. Their offense would be lethal with those targets.
    His biggest holdup this year is how bad Tampa is at their receivers getting open. Mike Evans takes so many plays off. When he tries Brady puts it on him. Tyreek and Waddle will create a Randy Moss type setup for Brady.

    The team was over hyped starting when they had a comeback win against Baltimore. Dodged the bullet a few times until the cream of the crop schedule showed up and poof, they suck like I knew they would. Tua is alright, but at any given moment he could get hit in the head with a feather duster and be out for a month. Knowing Miami like I do, they will probably fire the head coach, then resign Tua to a larger contract, then get caught talking to the wrong people again, and all before the Super Bowl game is played.

    Talk about an overreaction...

    McDaniel would have other suitors if he got canned.

    He might have other suitors... but I could see Miami doing this. If I was Miami's owner... I had the money to burn.... I'm not even a Miami fan... and I think I'd can him. lol This losing streak just shows me he can't figure out how to stop the bleeding. If he can't make the playoffs after going 8-3... bye.

    Not many teams win in the NFL when the QB1 gets hurt.

    I liked what i saw from McDaniel when The QB was playing.

    As a huge Dolphins fan, I was surprised at how little criticism Tua received after that horrendous performance in San Fran. That might have been the worst QB performance I have ever seen. In recent memory anyways. He missed several easy passes. Then the following week at the Chargers was almost equally bad. I wanna believe Tua can last in this league but I don't see it. He is accurate but seems injury prone which was my biggest concern when they drafted him and he just doesn't have the arm strength.

    It sure seems that McDaniels instilled a good attitude to this team. Focuses on being your best. Sometimes it seems they get away from the running game and he underutilized Gesicki all season long. They were really Lucky to beat the Steelers. Their D bailed them out several times.

    Bridgewater was a bad decision. He is even more fragile than Tua. Skyler Thompson could be a good QB in the league. He's Purdy-like.

    The Dolphins spent a lot to win today with Hill and Chubb and getting their new HC. I honestly don't know what they should do if the rumors are true.
