I can't wait for you to get 100000 subs Doug. You are my favorite place to get Dolphins content.

[@williamoakes2159]

"Next man up" is a losing strategy if the team has no depth...

[@theodoresmith5272]

No depth? How about too many starters that should have been backups. Teams need to be 4 deep at cornerback. We are about 1 and a half.

[@benfloydy]

"It's backups all the way down"

[@charlesc7950]

Do not let Jonnu get away. He's a beast.

[@benfloydy]

Of course they will, it'd be too obvious and simple to keep a working part. Their plan to bring on the lumbering Frankenstein monster that is Julian Hill as a grotesque pardody of the complete every down TE is nearly at fruition. 🙄

[@anthonycaniano9892]

There are too many players on this team that don't take their craft seriously and sign with the Dolphins just to live in South Florida. Teams like the Bills are more successful because they have players that are serious about winning or they are gone, no one signs with them because of the weather or nightlife. McDaniel and Grier need to change the culture here or nothing will ever change. That means bringing in guys who put winning above partying and the sun. Thanks Doug for all your work.

[@benfloydy]

Unfortunately true. I think it's far more true than the myths about being soft or a warm weather team ... we just have good players seeking semi-retirement all the time. Its one reason why Griers habit of giving huge long contracts to vets pains me so

[@gex1309]

Doug, what happened to Jaylen Wright? I had such high hopes for him, and by the end of the season, I honestly forgot he was on the team. As always, great vid, sir. 🐬🆙️

[@DolphinsEzekiel]

We’ll see a combination between achain and wright next year

[@Sharpshooter111]

He was given some reps when achane was out and again when Mostert was out, but then towards end of season it was almost all achane, a tiny bit Mostert, no wright. Yet, when wright was being given a few reps a game, he had the highest yards per carry of the running backs. Maybe because they weren’t expecting him to run or didn’t know his routes, but still. Maybe he’s not as good as we were hoping but I still think he’s going to be utilized more, hopefully next season

[@rogerrosu1643]

Question of the day: Will the Dolphins try to void Hill's contract because he voluntarily sat out the fourth quarter of the Jets game, if he asks for a trade? Is that why he's not asking for a trade?

[@benfloydy]

He was making the odd run, but it was very apparent our RBs weren't the problem with our run game, and no real reason to swap out A Train and Mostert.

[@The_Zilli]

At 12-5, we'd be the weakest 12-5 team in the history of the NFL. The win/loss record wouldnt change the reality that this team is not built for a Superbowl run especially if they have to go on the road in the AFC.

[@benfloydy]

I dunno, there have been some pretty impressively record-flattered teams over the years.

[@Dolcanes]

What are you even trying to say

[@benfloydy]

@@Dolcanes They're saying if we'd won the games we probably should have won we'd just have a flattering record. Like the Vikings.

Doug it was a crazy season and I got to the point after our 9 losses I couldn’t watch anything Dolphin related but your show. 30 years man a Phinfan and I am telling you this year hurts. But you my friend helped me I couldn’t even watch TD sometimes love you two guys 2025 let’s see how it goes. Phins up!

[@mrcummings2339]

The effort this year was lethargic.😮

[@theodoresmith5272]

@mrcummings2339 teams know how good they are. I've heard former players in interviews say that can effect vet players who will start to protect their bodies for the next season of they think the team isn't really a playoff team.

[@zachr.8786]

Season may not have gone the way we wanted. But THANK YOU DOUG for all the laughs ( shout out to ya pops) news and info throughout the season. I'm down in Delaware I dont have many Dolphin fans that i can relate to all Eagle and Reds*ins fans hahaha Happy for you and the growth of the channel been here for a while and look foward to the new year and new season. I know ill be informed about Miam Dolphins football ! Happy New Year to you and the family and FINSUP ! Also my 2 cents is this team will be mediocre until Ross is gone like Dallas wont be until Jerry is gone.

[@danielpilarski4896]

It's been a great year for our defense. Hope we don't lose our d coach. But will understand if he wants to be a head coach

[@josem-1-2-3]

Hey Doug, you, Reason and Curtis from Ace per Head are 3 of the best analytical Dolphin's minds. You all should collaborate for an off-season segment. Help us the fans unbox the best direction the organization can go as future roster moves: draft, free agency and trades.

[@pabloastudillo6903]

Brother Doug I want you to know that without a doubt in my military mind you are the best- we appreciate your hard work and professionalism- Thank You Stay The Course

[@jim1407]

The only reason weaver is being talked about for a head coaching job is because he’s being talked about for a head coaching job, Miami’s defense slid some in the rankings but yeah, it was talked about the day he was hired, everyone knew this stop was just a springboard, there goes your “continuity”

[@user-oo7vd2jv4i]

The reason we went from the best to the worst offense is the o-line and handling difficult personalities. I think Wilkins was a key contributor in handling the larger personalities like Hill. Chub I think will step up this year as handling them better.

[@iec7587]

We never had near the best oline and dont have the worst. Teams countered MM's scheme and either he didnt know what to do or wouldnt adjust (a scheme tailored around Tua's shortcomings but ran it with other QBs) , the league put a stop to our illegal motion, Tua got hurt again and doesnt play well against good teams, and the inability to run block with any consistency.

[@Tito-d6t]

Think about it Doug, 65,74 and that damm 89 played way too much and I would be willing to bet those three had at least 40% of that negative growth.

[@ericflick5697]

I would agree with the picks the only other one I will give some flowers to is Jaylen Wright. Jaylen was not utilized as he can be and the OL being fixed I think he will be a great downhill RB. Time will tell if I am right and he will rival Achane as number one RB.

[@mcmclear]

Fins up!

[@Mark_conor]

Should have put tyreek getting arrested in the thumbnail 😂

[@DrP00per]

The only honorable mention I'd add is Alex Ingold. When he wasn't in, the entire office changed.

[@theodoresmith5272]

We were what I thought we would be. Last year was the year. We lost talent but put up a smoke screen that we would be better than the bills. Lol. We should have retooled. Instead we mortgaged the next 2 years. Uncle Phil got fired a year to late. Adam gase and tbomb got fired a year to late. Seems Grier and Michael will get fired a year to late. Grier went T-bomb. We have a lot of underperforming overpaid vets. We have very little youg good talent. We don't have an elite qb. We are in salary cap hell.

[@jare114]

[@patchreefs]

Doug, I didnt know that Reggie McKenzie was still with the Dolphins. Episode 448 with Poupart and Perkins on (All Dolphins Podcast) mentioned at about the 6 minute mark of the video that the Tennesee Titans are interested In Reggie McKensie for their GM position. Why didn't we use Reggie for our GM position? He is now our Manager of Player Personnel. AS THE WORLD TURNS. He could of been our GM and taught Chris Grier how to become our new GM . Again we play a new episode of the Twilight Zone. Doug, If I am wrong let me know. George

[@bryangonzalez4604]

My biggest surprise was Malik Washington, my Defensive player goes to Seiler, Offensive player definitely Devon and Jonnu, most disappointing, Tua, Tyreek, Javon, and Poyer, most surprising to me imo is Malik, Dodson, and chop. My MVP is either Campbell, Arron Brewer or Jason Sanders.

[@benfloydy]

My biggest surprise was Holland, and not in a good way. 😢 My biggest positive surprise was Chop actually looking like he might be a player after a dubious start. My complete lack of surprise was Tua getting injured and the OL stinking as bad as ... the players Grier thought were good enough to start on the OL.

[@benfloydy]

Campbell was my MVP. Without him turning the clock back, we'd likely have won only 2 or 3 games, no joke.

[@bryangonzalez4604]

@@benfloydy you know Ben after Grier and Mike said they might take the OL more seriously it actually made me happier that we may finally address the OL. Because when Doug said what he said it makes sense because maybe Ross wants them to do it now since he’s an owner that wants to win and since they don’t like Tua getting injured my thoughts is that maybe they either trade for a QB Like JJ McCarthy or they sign a good backup kinda how I wanted them to get Minshew. If they do what we’ve been telling them then maybe we could do well in 25 as long as they address the OL and draft and sign good OL for Tua since now they really care about giving Tua more protection. Since I’m a huge OL guy I would keep guys like Paul, Jackson (when healthy) Brewer, and maybe in round 1 if one of the best guards is available at 13 I would draft one of them and then maybe sign a Vet so they can learn from them like Calais Campbell. You know Ben I’m glad I chose to be a dolphins fan because you know Ik we all are frustrated with the team rn but sometimes you just gotta still root for the team in the good or bad. Sure we sucked this year but we had some bright spots here and there. What worries me is Mike doing play calling, I would hire Doug Pederson since he knows the dolphins well or even Darell Bevel as OC. For DC I would get Salah and Special Team Darren Rizzi. I hope you have a good rest of your day/night Ben and PHINS UP.

[@bryangonzalez4604]

@@benfloydy well if tua was healthy we would’ve been 12-5 but we wouldn’t have won the division but it would’ve been something another MVP I said was Brewer to bring him in with no injury history is a good sign and Paul as well those 2 I would keep long term.

[@jim1407]

Third year should have been the so-called break out season when all things are solidified, everyone is on the same page, it was evident game one there was no focus or continuity, sorry, it is on the coaches, Head and Assistants.

[@iec7587]

much easier to do when you get the HC/QB right and we missed on both

[@jim1407]

@ right, when he passed on Herbert, it showed me a little something about this GM and the face he wanted for the franchise, I’ll keep the rest of that to myself.

[@digemsmacks5690]

Starters on the field matters.. Look at the Chiefs for an extreme example, that was the actual K.C Chiefs Football team on the field Sunday and the Superbowl Champs and frontrunners got beat . down but it was all backups. Same thing in Miami or any other team with too many missing pieces at critical positions like T, G, QB, WR, CB, DE Thats the issue in Miami, not enough actual starter quality players on the field together at the same time. The more complex the scheme the higher % of 1's you need on the field to succeed, there's a reason both 49ers and Miami both flopped this year yet the Lions maintained while losing half their Defense; its almost like they drafted Football Players and have a constant influx of young talent and the drop-off wasn't as steep for them 😮

[@grizzlyxl2082]

Should have kept the offensive line together. Should have paid both Robert Hunt and Connor Williams.

[@alexsmash5316]

Connor Williams retired halfway through the season lol. Dolphins dodged a bullet with that one.

[@grizzlyxl2082]

@alexsmash5316 Wait isn't he playing for Seattle right now. I think he actually dodged the bullet. He retired to get out of Miami

[@alexsmash5316]

@@grizzlyxl2082 he retired while playing for Seattle. He blew out his knee while playing for Miami and they opted not to resign him. Good move on Miami’s part.

[@steverob8432]

Tua is an absolute bust. “Only one person can run this genius offense”, when we throw out practice squad guys is a joke. Just admit he’s limited and Herbert was the right pick instead of simping.

[@benfloydy]

What does it achieve if you think Herbert was a better pick? You gunna get points for that? Tua obviously isn't a bust, but his contract is. But we have to work with that for at least one more season, no takey baksies. Let's build an OL and make ANY QBs life a bit easier.

[@steverob8432]

@ it’s just another example of why this GM and coach who worships Tua should have gotten fired. Franchise, pro bowl player staring them in the face and we take the midget with a bad hip and lack of arm talent.

[@Ryans319]

Biggest Disappointment: Tyreek Hill. I just didn’t see the same player. He shrunk this year. MVP: Achane. I think overall he was a huge part of the offense. Defensive MvP : Sieler. When he was out, you could tell.

[@iec7587]

SOS is not just opp winning % because the schedules are so imbalanced, it is also when you play a team (we played the Rams when they were not good but their win% is good for example, when teams are injured, etc). You have to look at their rankings of when we played them. Power Ranking Guru is a much better measure of SOS than just win%. We had the easiest at the end of the year and bottom third to start the year. It was similar last year as well. Year 5 of the great rebuild. Umm ahh next year ummm we'll do better and the idiot with the baseball cap shouldn't be allowed to speak about what he is going to do. Regarding Hill's actions and player tardiness. It wont be tolerated again????????It shouldnt have been tolerated in the first place.....this isnt HS

[@JackieMcpherson-kz4mv]

What if the Fins use all their draft picks, then they go out and TRY to trade huntley and thompson for a backup QB, for example, huntley, thompson for Kenny Pickett

[@oneminutebeerreviews6628]

Of course the injuries hurt, any team losing their starting QB is going to struggle. The problem was that we had no back-up Thomson is not the man, Snoop with a pre-season could be. but he is a game to game back up not a take over the season back up and very few teams have Don Strock anymore. Hill wasn't a disappointment, there were games during the Tua time on IR where he got very few targets, he can't catch it if its not thrown to him. His display in the game just gone against the Jets, that's a different story, get that man out of this team asap.

[@kyleflory7441]

I hate the fact though that we say we Should’ve/Would’ve/Could’ve gone places with Tua healthy. We are at the stage where if there is a qb there in the draft they’re going to pull the trigger. For me I’m banging the table for Jaxon Dart in the 3rd. He’s innovative, smart, love the way he throws the ball. Dolphins drafted Tua over Herbert fine whatever I’m over it, just give me Jaxon Dart now. Let him sit and develop, then unfortunately if Tua goes down you can have a reliable backup and a possible piece to build around.

[@benfloydy]

You're kidding yourself if you think they'll draft a QB in the first 3 rounds.

What a difference a real QB can make. Washington ended 2023 season with a 4-13 record and entered 2024 with one of the worst rosters in the NFL. Enter J. Daniels. He put the team on his back and led them to a 12-5 record, will probably win offensive rookie of the year and his improvisational skills were fun to watch and left you in awe. Meanwhile, Fins had a far more superior roster but our QB is Tua. Team sport? Go back and read how J. Daniels changed the pathetic Washington team from a laughingstock to a 12-5 team and a playoff berth. Thats what a good QB can do for a team. Tua simply isnt good enough.
