Did the Panthers get Mike McDaniel fired now?

He's almost certainly gone, but I will say McDaniel did seem to get the most out of Tua at QB.

I feel like Tua is basically what Bryce's ceiling is with an actual innovative offensive mind calling plays for him. Tua has better size, but they both have similar arm strength limitations.

Also one of the things that might keep McD around all year is their offense (as putrid as it is) is designed very specifically to protect tua and take advantage of their track star wrs and rbs. 

they probably don’t have the personnel to just line up under center and run the ball like happens with most interim head coaches.

Easily?  Jayden Daniels was offensive rookie of the year last year, and Bo Nix looks good as well.

They'd never do it, because it really would be insane to do, but if I'm the Commanders, I'd seriously consider trading Daniels after this season, especially as he'd get a HUGE return for him.

He's RG3 part 2, with his body type and style of game, I just can't see how he holds up long term, he's going to end up having a seriously injury prone career.

It would take some massive balls (or pure insanity) to pull the trigger on trading him, but I do think 5 years from now it would be looked back upon as a smart trade.

A coach and GM would never survive a year or two after making that trade. You’d lose the locker room on top of losing the majority of games. 

If he ends up being injury prone that isn’t a coach’s / GM’s fault. If anything you’d be more likely to keep your job if he’s injury prone as it gives you an out for the season(s) spinning down the drain.

Oh 100%, totally get it, I'm just saying I can't see how he stays healthy with the way he'd built and the way he plays

Tua has a much better arm. Threw that long TD to waddle. What’s Bryce’s longest completion this year and what’s Tuas?

Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross was less than thrilled after the Miami Dolphins lost against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday, 27-24, dropping their record to 1-4 on the season.

"He was really frustrated, just like I was," head coach Mike McDaniel told reporters Monday. "We talked about the challenge ahead to get ready for the Los Angeles Chargers, and that was really the extent of it."

    • Just as we won those close games we could have just as easily lost them. So the jury is out on if we were more lucky than good ( see the sweep by the saints) Were moving forward on paper. And how badly dont we all want to see us back to at least Above average form. Its about time. 
    • If you're looking for a pat on the back it sounds good in theory until you realize they also had the 2023 Panthers as the top draft class.
    • Going into the 2003 and 2015 seasons we were supposed to be the joke of the league each time. In 2003, John Fox was supposed to still be in rebuild mode. We had a guy named Peppers on the defensive line who was supposed to be pretty good. We had Rodney Peete as our starting QB and a line that was a lot of hope and not much experience. Our new running back was a guy the Redskins, errrr Commanders, had jettisoned for being too old. We had a good kicker and writers thought that was needed because there were going to be more field goals than touch downs. Heck, it looked like they were right up until just before halftime of that first game when we had to yank Rodney Peete and put in some Cajun duded whose name couldn't be pronounced. And Steve Smith? He wasn't Smitty yet. Moose Muhammad, well, he was close to being written off as a bust. You know how that turned out. And then in 2015, we had Cam Newton, who was electrifying to watch but hadn't really won anything yet. There was an offensive line in front of him that looked like it was made in a defunct Swiss cheese factory and our big hope on offense was the great Kelvin Benjamin. And then he got taken out for the year with a knee injury in training camp. Ted "Feet of Lightning, Hands of Stone" Ginn became our default go to guy beside our next best hope, yeah, Devin Funchess. Our defense was pretty good, a scrappy bunch with frikkin' awesome linebacker play and a cornerback who had done more than drank the Kool-Aid, but had snorted the powder. He played like a superhero and became sort of a bat-man during the season. By the Super Bowl he had completely lost his freaking mind, though, and managed to talk his way out of a contract with the team next year. No one was expecting us to win the NFCSouth that season, much less almost go undefeated and into the Super Bowl. So, 2026? Who knows? But our best seasons came when no one had a reason to believe in us, except us.
