This mental rep BS has to go!

We set an NFL record for missed tackles, and WE STILL are getting a lot of injuries. McDaniel's mental reps over actual practicing and hitting is killing this team. It is showing up on the field as missed tackles, 4th quarter let downs due to fatigue, and it is not helping at all with injuries.

When you practice the way you play, and actually physically hit in practice; you develop a resistance to injuries because your body and soft tissue adjust to this type of environment. A team that practices soft, plays soft. I actually like McD, but that mentality has to go....or he has to go!

As a fan of McDaniel, his approach, and his personality, this makes sense to me. I didn’t know “mental reps” were a thing they did instead of full contact practice (and - not to doubt you but do you know for a fact the former takes time away from the latter?) if that’s true then yeah I agree- you need to practice how you want to play. Its obvious.

Miami should have been on a plane on Monday up to an outdoor practice facility in WI. Monday could have been rest in the plane, Tuesday should have been acclimation with no pads and drills, Wednesday full practice outside.

But nope, Monday off, Tuesday walk through, Wednesday flight and no practice. Comical.
