With more than half the league eliminated from the 2025 playoffs, several owners have begun the difficult next step to hopefully make their team better by firing the current head coach. The Patriots have been in that position the last two years, and fortunately, they aren't this year. Plenty of their rivals aren't facing the same fate, the most notable of which is the Dolphins.
The Miami team has been questionable for several years, despite the initial excitement surrounding the hiring of Mike McDaniel. He was expected to bring the kind of success the franchise had been longing for, only to be fired after four seasons and plenty of questionable decisions.
