Mike Florio joins to break down the Dolphins' decision to bench Tua Tagovailoa, explaining that Tua had reached a point where he was unplayable and the move allows Miami to get a real look at rookie Quinn Ewers. Florio shares his belief that Tua has likely hit his ceiling as an NFL quarterback and doesn't expect him to secure another starting job, though a backup role could be possible. He also weighs in on the decision-making behind the benching, suggesting it was driven by Mike McDaniel—potentially influenced by comments from Stephen Ross—and may have been partially about McDaniel protecting his own job. The segment wraps with a TNF recap of the Rams-Seahawks thriller and Florio's thoughts on the MVP race heading into the final weeks of the season.

Mike Florio from Pro Football Talk joined the show. Mike said something just feels different this time with the Steelers in regards to Mike Tomlin being back next season. He referenced the times changing a bit and them going about their business differently the last few years in the off-season. Mike said the Steelers are stuck in a rut with a lot of people making a lot of money. Mike thinks Art Rooney II will sit back on this until he starts noticing more and more empty seats in the stadium because that means dollars lost. He said if he was a season-ticket holder, he would not attend the next home game (MNF 12/15 vs MIA) if they lose in an ugly way to the Ravens on Sunday. Mike thinks it's a complicated reality with coaches thinking about the greener pastures that could be out there. Could Mike see Penn State making a play for Tomlin? Mike talked about the current cycle of coaches in the NFL and another reason why Tomlin might be the hottest candidate out there if he and the Steelers move on. Mike said we don't know for sure that the Giants are interested, but there is some dot-connecting being done.

Mike Florio from Pro Football Talk joined the show. The guys asked Mike about his card collecting days and he explained why 1976 was a big year. Mike also gave quite an interesting take on an ice cream topping. Once the talk got to football, it turned to Aaron Rodgers and if he would play in Chicago on Sunday.

The guys asked Mike about the tussle between Ja'Marr Chase and Jalen Ramsey on Sunday, which resulted in Ramsey's ejection and Chase's suspension.
