Miami Dolphins Stick with Coach Mike McDaniel Despite Poor Start
No Big Changes Planned Despite 1-6 Record
The Miami Dolphins are not planning to make any significant changes, even after a tough start to their season. Head coach Mike McDaniel will remain at the helm, despite calls for his firing following a recent loss to the Cleveland Browns.
Owner Stephen Ross continues to support McDaniel, believing in his ability to turn things around.
McDaniel Takes Responsibility
McDaniel has openly admitted that the team's performance has been subpar and that everyone, including himself, is accountable. He even stated that considering his job security is offensive to him and the team. His commitment to improving the situation remains unwavering.
High-Profile Losses and Internal Issues
The Dolphins have faced several high-profile losses this season, including a close game against the Carolina Panthers. Tensions rose when quarterback Tua Tagovailoa called out some teammates for being late to team activities, only to retract his comments later. The team is under immense pressure to improve.
Finding Their Identity
McDaniel emphasized the need for the team to figure out who they are and what they're made of. He noted that the only things that could change the situation are if fans stop showing up to games or if the players stop playing for him. So far, neither has happened.
Looking Ahead
The Dolphins will face the Atlanta Falcons this week, hoping to bounce back from their struggles. Despite the challenges, the team is determined to turn things around and get back on track.
