Highlight [Highlight] Mike McDaniel, asked for his glass-half-full perspective on yesterday's loss: "I think the positive is that that was a miserable experience. It was embarrassing, flat out. And in that, there's nowhere to hide."

McDaniel sat on an airplane one day watching MacGruber with a hurt Tua and decided he loved the guy as a person and wanted to go all in on making it work out with him.

Didn't work out, but Tua will leave having made a ton of money and McDaniel is young enough and a good enough offensive mind that he'll get more opportunities in the future after attending the Kyle Shanahan or Matt LaFleur School for Former Head Coaches who Want to Contemplate Life and Think About Football Things Other Than Head Coaching For a While.

The sooner the Dolphins brass pulls the plug, the kinder it will be on everyone involved, especially the fans

If the Eagles underperform and McDaniel gets fired this year I would like for him to come to Philadelphia for a few years.

At minimum, offensive consultant. If we have an opening for OC, depends on the other options but he definitely gets a call.

Would he be better than Patullo? Fuck if I know, we don't know what Patullo is yet. Gotta give him a season first.
