    McDaniel has just dug his own grave. Does he really think this is going to save his job? We have all seen his offense operated without Tua.

    Dig in for a long rebuild, the Dolphins will not be competitive for a long time.

    I just saw this and was going to post it. As I said in one of the other threads, I was a supporter of Tua and I believed in him. I think his 2023 season was unbelievably lights out and felt we were RIGHT there on the edge to take the next step and I thought last season was going to be that season to do it. Sadly, it didn't and Tua has been regressing ever since.

    I watched a video this morning on every pass Tua threw in 2024. He looked sharp and his throws were on a dot...until the Houston Texans game. After that game where his hip was injured, his throws were not as sharp or crisp, often lofting...and they've only gotten worse since then. I always knew Tua was going to have a short career, but I didn't think it was going to start spiraling down as soon as it has.

    Benching Tua and starting Ewers is a smart move on McDaniel's part. McDaniel's future in Miami is in question. His benching Tua demonstrates he's willing to look elsewhere for answers, but can McDaniel put together a string of wins to show that he is still the guy. Does Ewers have what it takes to step up and show that he could be the answer?

    Three weeks to go to find out.
