The Miami Dolphins suffered a difficult loss against New England’s patriots on Sunday as the pressure increased on the property to make a decision on their general manager and chief coach.
The press conference after Mike McDaniel game after defeat 33-27 did not exactly much to inspire confidence among fans. He was asked about the team’s failure to become the room below in his final possession of the game.

“That’s where frustration resides for me is that it was not to decide what it cost us, or a late game call, that sometimes happens,” said McDaniel. “But this was not one of those times. I got the game, but I need to do a better job supervising the orchestration within our multiple personnel groups.
“To win games, you have to win the game and not lose the game, honestly. And that’s how you lose the game. You are moving the ball through the field, you are first and 10 and then you find yourself in second and 20. That was critical.
Later he regretted that the team does not run correctly in critical situations. The defense of the Patriots came to Tua Tagovaila twice in the final campaign and committed a delay of the penalty of the game.

McDaniel’s smart lines have fallen into deaf ears and fans are more frustrated by the week. A plane flew over the Hard Rock stadium that required McDaniel’s layoffs and general manager Chris Grier.
Miami’s schedule is not easier either.
The Dolphins will play the Buffalo Bills on Thursday night with the New York Jets that stalk around the corner. Miami could start 0-3 against divisional opponents.
McDaniel said he was not necessarily concerned with his job safety despite starting the 0-2 season.
“I think that if I worry about the security of my work, I will not do my job, and I think that inherently it is against all the things I believe,” he said. “I have never felt right to any kind of: I have never felt right to this position, and it is very important for me to spend all my hours of vigil worrying exactly how to do my job and all the residual effects of that is that there are many people affected.

“Yes, I will not spend a moment thinking about all the things that people, whatever people want to think. I am thinking about this team and the buffalo tickets here after ending this podium.”
