Mike McDaniel is a class act

Sean Payton is one of the biggest pieces of **** this league has ever seen. Not only did he steal prescription drugs from the team but he put bounties on rival players, demanded that the team train in another state so that he could be near his mistress and quit on the team after he blew up their salary cap with horrible decisions.

**** him.
And didn’t he say teddy bridgewater would be replacing Tua as the starter plus what he said about Hackett.. Peyton is a fool
 
He didn’t kneel to end the game… it was a turnover on downs. A little bit different…
Well, if McDaniel really wanted to, he could have had Tua and Company put up 90-100 points today. But he pulled Tua and others after three quarters and then chose not to kick the FG and basically ran the ball to end the Dolphins' possession.
 
They showed him on 3rd down. He was grimacing.

Everything about his demeanor at that moment was that he really wanted to go for the record, but he was told not to do it.

But boy, he really wanted to.

So don't blame him. Yes, it was ultimately his decision, but the NFL is a brotherhood of sorts these days and sports history will look kindly upon him for showing mercy to an outclassed team and their coaches.
Hmmm... I think all along he was not going to go for it with a FG. Now, if it happened organically due to a run off tackle like Brooks almost did, then yeah he wouldn't have minded.
 
Quote from McDaniel:

“Chasing points and chasing a record is not what we came to do,” Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said about not going for 73 with the field goal."

“It’s not really what I’m about,” McDaniel said about not kicking the field goal. “I will be fine getting second guessed by turning down NFL records. I’m very okay with the decision. The leaders of the team supported it. The captains supported it. That’s not the way you wanna get the record. That’s called karma and I wanna keep good karma with the Miami Dolphins.”
 
Lol. Cmon man. We threw a 60 yrd bomb when we were already up by 60. We were already running it up

That was Mike White to Chosen Robbie Anderson Chosen Chosen.

Not running it up when it's bench players doing it.

Let those scrubs do whatever they can.
All back-ups (or most of them, I assume) want to be starters , so these guys are just showcasing their talents. If they can't be starters in Miami, then they may get a chance elsewhere. It's just like in preseason, where players want to look good on tape, hoping to land a roster spot somewhere.

That was the back-ups getting much needed reps. ;)

But I know how Broncos fans must feel...the same way I felt when ****ing Feidler came in for the Jags and right away chucked a bomb for a TD enroute to the 62-7 thrashing they put on us. I was NOT happy... For that reason, I never accepted Jay as our QB...IDGAF what he did.

What I said..way to go Mike
 
"class act" ? the Dolphins were already FIFTY points ahead !!! SMH
Well when Denver gifts you multiple turnovers in front of their end zone, you do what you do. It wasn't about embarrassing them, they did that to themselves.

Class is for teachers. Shoulda gone for the record and be remembered for decades to come.
MCDaniel was being a teacher in that instance. He was teaching how to win with class while not piling onto a team that you are already beating by 50 points.
