The Miami Dolphins have been horrible in their first two games of the 2025 season and its beginning has firmly put the chief coach Mike McDaniel in the hot seat.
The Dolphins lost to the Indianapolis Colts and the New England patriots and will enter their third game of the season against the Buffalo Bills with the second points differential in the NFL in -31.
The former star supporter of the NFL Shawne Merriman predicted that the change would arrive soon to the Dolphins.

“That team will be disassembled soon, and I think it will begin with the chief coach, Mike McDaniel,” he told Pak Gazette Digital. “I think they are going to start (searching) to trade or put aside some of their most frustrated players. You have a frustrated Tyreek hill. Tyreek Hill is a very, very key figure in your costumes.
“Then, when you see him frustrated, and things like that happen … being frustrated can only turn to many men and could be a bad situation for him and could be a bad situation for the organization.”
Merriman also said he was far from being impressed with McDaniel’s press conference after the defeat against the Patriots.
McDaniel offered a disconcerting event when asked about the team’s failure to become third and fourth inactive 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.”
Merriman said he really didn’t inspire trust.

“I don’t know if Mike McDaniel is getting the season,” he told Pak Gazette Digital. “I would hate to see someone to be fired. But just seeing what I have seen in their press conferences, and I have seen it before and this happened with (the former coach of the Chargers Brandon Staley), it is when it is known that if certain coaches are not ready to be in that position as a chief coach for how they handle the worst adversity at the time. Some of the answers Mike McDaniel are not ready to be ready to be ready to be ready to be ready to be ready to be ready to be ready to be ready to be ready to That position in that position at that time.
The Dolphins legend, Dan Marino, offered a more sunny perspective to Pak Gazette Digital earlier for the week.
“I think it’s a group effort obviously. Mike is a brilliant offensive mind. He has demonstrated that,” said Marino. “Yesterday (Sunday), it’s just at the end, like all games in the NFL, he went down to the last quarter. Almost all are like that, and you have to play the four rooms. We did it and had the opportunity to win.
“The Dolphins, yes (De’von) Achane did not come out of the limits, I really feel that we would have won that game. That happened, there are a couple of mistakes, and the next thing you know you lose the game. That is why it is so critical in the end, especially to play errors free football. But Mike is a very good football coach.”
Winning solves many things in sports, and Dolphins could change the ship with an annoying victory over Bills.

However, the Dolphins are on a six -game losing streak against the Bills and have not defeated them since September 25, 2022. It is their only victory against them since December 2, 2018. In addition, Miami has not defeated the Bills in Buffalo since Christmas Eve in 2016.
