The Miami Dolphins may have made the hire of the year when the front office brought in former San Francisco 49ers run game coordinator and offensive coordinator, Mike McDaniel, to take over as their head coach.
McDaniel started with the Denver Broncos in 2005 as a Coaching intern and has worked his up the ladder to become an NFL head coach at only age 39. He is highly regarded for what he did with the 49ers’ run game and his ability to get the most out of star players such as Deebo Samuel.
McDaniel is the perfect fit for a roster that includes Jaylen Waddle and Tyreek Hill as his main goal offensively is to get his athletes the ball in space so they can take off toward the end zone. McDaniel is also a big believer in quarterback [autotag]Tua Tagovailoa[/autotag], he believes that he is a great quarterback for the system he is trying to run as Tagovailoa delivers a catchable ball for receivers that won’t put them in danger.
Tagovailoa and former Dolphins head coach, Brian Flores, never seemed to wind up on the same page. So having a coach, like McDaniel, who believes so deeply in him is only going to provide him with confidence.
On the Dan Le Batard show with Stugotz, McDaniel spoke of the former Crimson Tide’s signal caller highly saying, “From what I have witnessed, if I was going to catch a football, Tua has the most accurate and the most catchable… My job is to make sure his best years as a football player are right in front of him right now.”
