Why so long?
The decision to keep him was baffling and he failed at every opportunity he was givendjphinfan, Dablur, Unlucky 13 and 1 other person like this. -

He had a golden opportunity and blew it.

IMO, the worst Dolphins QB to see the field in a regular season game in the last 35 years, minimum. Completely unable to play at the NFL level, which shouldn't be shocking given that he was a bad QB in college. And given that he was a freaking 25 year old rookie, I cannot fathom what they ever thought they were going to squeeze out of him in development. The dude is older than Lamar Jackson, Sam Darnold, Kyler Murray, and of course Tua. There was never any upside.
We need to go with a veteran backup next season, and then potentially think about drafting a long term solution in 2026, which hopefully would be done by a different, better GM.Tuanon4Life likes this. -
But yes, after epic bust Rosen, I agree Skylar gets the nod.Phin McCool likes this. -

I like McDaniel, but this was one of his biggest mistakes. I don't know what he saw in him.

I still have reservations about Jones as a potential backup. As much as I like Tannehill, I don't know if he would be an experienced veteran backup that could run this offense, seeing how terrible our line is at providing protection.
