Mike McDaniel at the Breakers on the Tua-Teddy dynamic at QB and Hill comparison with Deebo.

- Start date
in so many words, Tua is the starter, Bridgewater the back-up

Too much background noise for me to follow what the coach was saying.
From the same press conference:

Whoa whoa whoa a coach who addresses issues with short concise answers. I think I need a nap I feel dizzy from the complete flip in press conferences
Love McDaniel even more if that's possible.
Hopefully Teddy has been spoken to sternly for creating drama when there is none based on his ego that he's now a backup.
FWIW, he's fallen to earth harshly; it wasn't so long ago that he did reject a starting QB offer from us to return to NO to back up Brees. If he's needed, I will root like hell for him, but in general #NotAFan

I don't even think Teddy was trying to create any drama. His pride probably wouldn't say he's a backup. Jacoby Brissett gave a similar non-answer when he was asked last year. The "QB controversy" was media manufactured notably by the pissant Mike Florio of PFT who routinely has it out against the Dolphins.
I never thought there was even a question that was the case. Bridgewater is now on his 5th team in the league and the reason he has been on so many teams is he just hasn’t been good enough anywhere to keep the starting QB job.
He is an upgrade over Brissett as backup QB but Tua is and should be the starting QB for the Dolphins.
Teddy was probably trying to position himself to be the successor to Brees which, considering how well he played in New Orleans, and that Jameis eventually got that role despite not being as natural of a fit, I can't blame him.

Active Roster
I feel with Teddy we might be a 8-9 or 9-8 team with this roster. But with Tua we could be 12-5 or 13-4.

Ps. McD also called the report of Brady to the Phins from journalist Dale Arnold, “fake news”.
Just as an an aside, Florio is definitely pro Flores, decrying racism in hiring and believing his claim that Ross tried to bribe him. Another "do as I say....." considering he lives in Bridgeport WV which has a population of 95% white and 1% Black.
How do you not love this guy already.

Love how he immediately shuts down the rumor and isn’t scared to say it in front of everyone, unlike the past 3 years where they’d skirt around the issue and let it simmer right there waiting for the **** to pop but would reel it in just to let it simmer some more.
It’s a refreshing change and I absolutely love it.
