There could be others that I am missing.

At least those teams won their division, and got a first round bye. Dolphins couldn't even manage to do that. Those teams were juggernauts throughout that regular season before meeting their fate in the playoffs. The issue with the Dolphins were seen as early as the game at Buffalo, yet for some reason their were still many who saw them as arguably the biggest favorite to make the Super Bowl until getting smacked down by Baltimore

Listening to Mike McDaniel's post game press conference, pretty sad stuff. What's also interesting is how quickly that fanbase is turning. They aren't saying fire him, but they are a step from that (based on the comments).

I don't think there is an appreciate from fans on just how hard it is to win. It's hard to win in the regular season- I can't stand that ridiculous winning when it counts stuff. All the damn games count. It's hard to put together consistent winning seasons- people that discredit what Mike Tomlin has done, if it wasn't such a big deal, why don't more coaches do it? It's hard to string together multiple dominant seasons. It's hard to win a playoff game. It's hard to have a deep playoff run. It's even harder to do that consistently. And hardest of all, winning a Super Bowl.

It's going to be interesting to see how McDaniel adapts and what Grier does to improve an obviously very talented team. They are good, but don't do well against winning teams. The diet version of the Dallas Cowboys. We'll see.

They might need to make the move to move away from Tua, similar to how the Rams moved away from Goff. The question is who is available that is a clear immediate upgrade.

We have an OC though. I can see a new head coach with a defensive background or a defensive head coach in general that needs an offensive spark paying him a truckload of money for him to come and call plays, which I think he'd take over coming back here. With that said, I'd welcome him back. We had a major brain drain between losing Saleh, Ryans, and McDaniel, as well as in the front office with Peters, Adofo-Mensah, Carthan, and Mayhew. With the front office though, we seem to have bounced back with the 2024 draft and hopefully 2025 as well.

Lmao, I've never thought he was very good. about time this dude finally fell back down to earth

these coordinators should really just stick with their teams that made them successful, but money talks

What coach has done well in Miami since Shula?

This. He'll be in demand as an OC. I doubt he's back with us in 2026, although it'd be cool if that somehow happened.
