Was there a reason for doing nothing?
The Miami Dolphins, specifically owner Stephen Ross, did not give the fans what they wanted: a clean break from head coach Mike McDaniel. There is a caveat to that, however, Ross never gave him the thumbs up either. With long-time Ravens head coach John Harbaugh now on the market, that is important to keep in mind.
McDaniel told members of the media that he is the Dolphins' head coach until he is told otherwise.
