Pressure Grows on DolphinsMike McDaniel After 1–6 Start and 31–6 Loss

Insiders indicate owner Stephen Ross could move up a decision if he concludes the locker room is no longer with the coach.

Overview

  • Miami fell to 1–6 with a 31–6 defeat to the Browns that featured four turnovers, six fumbles, three interceptions, and 11 penalties for 101 yards.
  • Mike McDaniel accepted responsibility postgame and said every aspect of the operation should be evaluated, starting with himself.
  • Reporting from Albert Breer outlines early-season firing rationales that include losing the locker room or wanting to audition defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver.
