Another season, another final regular season game the Miami Dolphins need to win in order to be in playoff contention. There are plenty of bad breaks that explain why they're in this situation, but does anyone care to hear them? The bottom line is the Dolphins need this win and they’re sending out their seventh-round rookie Skylar Thompson to lead the offense.
Is this an ideal situation? Absolutely not, but there is a path forward to win this game. McDaniel was hired for his deep understanding of NFL offenses and his ability to put up points.
