The NFL Combine is underway and our eyes are on the Dolphins with 11th pick. Tobin is upset to hear that Jeff Hafley and Jon-Eric Sullivan are really not as close of friends as he thought they were, and Leroy of course thinks he is ridiculous. We discuss whether or not the Dolphins should tank this season, Tobin thinks so and Leroy tells us to be careful what we wish for. We dip into our mixed bag to to finish out this hour, as we hear from Hafley, Spo, Norm, and more!
Tobin is in full effect after the Miami Heat drop a totally winnable game to the Bucks, as he and Leroy break down the struggles, question Spo's rotational decisions, and debate what tough conversations and moves may need to be made — all while rumors swirl that the Panthers could trade Sergei Bobrovsky before the deadline. The NFL Combine is underway with a focus on the Dolphins at 11, as tanking becomes a heated debate, mock drafts are examined, and we hear from Hafley, Spo, Norm, and more. Panthers defenseman and Latvian Olympian Uvis Balinskis joins the show to talk about his time in Milan, the Olympic Village, and the team's push for a three-peat. The final hour features reaction to drama surrounding the Men's USA Hockey Team, more Heat accountability as Spo addresses the defensive breakdowns, and a fun close with Rats Off A Ship, the Browns' QB situation, CJ Stroud, and more.
The scouting combine is off and running and the Dolphins brass did their media runs. On today's show Travis is reacting to all the soundbites of potential roster moves, team-building philosophies, draft concepts and so much more from the head coach and general manager of the Miami Dolphins.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Big O talks Dolphins Coaching Staff 021326
In this episode, we explore:The Green Bay Connection: We trace the roots of this hire. How did Jon-Eric Sullivan's 22 years in the Packers' front office and Jeff Hafley's defensive turnaround in Green Bay convince Stephen Ross to "copy-paste" the Packer Way into Miami?The Obstacles (The $100M Problem): The honeymoon ends when the spreadsheets open. We look at the brutal math facing Sullivan:The Tua Conundrum: With Tua Tagovailoa benched at the end of 2025 and carrying a massive cap hit, we analyze the "Russell Wilson-style" dead money hit Miami might have to swallow to move on.The Salary Cap "Nuke": Miami is currently over the cap with aging stars and injured veterans. We discuss the potential release of Tyreek Hill (following his 2025 knee injury) and how Sullivan plans to rebuild the trenches with limited "spendable" cash.Success or Skepticism? I ask the tough question: Is this the right move? Ross has a history of hiring "first-time" guys who flame out. I debate whether Hafley's defensive mind and Sullivan's scouting pedigree are enough to fix a franchise that hasn't won a playoff game in a quarter-century, or if this is just another "reset" that will lead to another search in three years or less?
Dolphins Head Coach Jeff Hafley joins Travis to discuss a wide range of topics. They'll get into the weeds behind schematics and game planning, the teaching aspect of the profession, leadership, and how he wants the rest of the NFL to perceive his Miami Dolphins.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Packers Total Access : BREAKING NEWS! Two Defensive Coaches Are Leaving With Jeff Hafley
Frozen Tundra Frequencies - Talking Green Bay Packers 24/7/1265
There are still plenty of moves to be made around the NFL, but the Green Bay Packers have decided on a few big things in recent weeks, starting with retaining Matt LaFleur as head coach and hiring Jonathan Gannon to replace the departing Jeff Hafley at defensive coordinator. Tex Western and guest Justis Mosqueda break down why LaFleur staying made sense, what kind of scheme Gannon will likely bring to Green Bay, and how the team needs to supplement their personnel to fit their new defense. More changes are coming on the coaching staff as well and they look at how the team might replace some other departing (or potentially departing) assistant coaches.We at FTF condemn the violent and unlawful actions of ICE and CBP, and we believe that the deaths of Renee Good, Alex Pretti, and others are reprehensible. We stand with the communities in the Twin Cities and around the USA that have been impacted by these agencies.

Packers Total Access : BREAKING NEWS! Miami Dolphins Hire Jeff Hafley! Top 15 Potential Replacements
January 16, 2026 - Season 16, Episode 80 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Friday afternoon episode, Alex Kozora and I get right back into discussing everything related to the Pittsburgh Steelers continuing to search for their next head coach. The Steelers have signed several players to Reserve/Future contracts since our last show, so Alex and I make sure to catch listeners up on all of the recent transactions made by the team. The Steelers will reportedly allow all coaches currently under contract with the team to interview for other jobs, so Alex and I discuss that news. We also go over the brief list of current coaches under contract that at least have a small chance of being retained once a new head coach is hired. Three more head coach candidates now have interviews set with the Steelers since our last show so that means Alex and I must discuss Klay Kubiak, Ejiro Evero, and Jeff Hafley being added to the list, which now sits at eight in total. Alex wrote a detailed post on Friday on why Hafley is his favorite choice to be the Steelers new head coach, so we go through a lot of his thoughts on that. We also go over reasons why Hafley might not be the perfect choice to succeed Mike Tomlin. Alex and I talk a little bit about my favorite candidate at this point to be the Steelers new head coach, Chris Shula. We also discuss a few other candidates that might get interviews in the coming days. A few of the candidates have interesting links to certain players, both currently on the Steelers and on other teams, so there are some conversations to be had concerning that topic. With a lot of readers and listeners having questions about Steelers OLB T.J. Watt and whether he might be tradeable this offseason, Alex and I dive into his current contract situation, the financials related to his salary and possible dead money, and the probability related to him being dealt before the 2026 NFL Draft gets underway in late April. Later in this episode the news breaks that special teams coordinator Danny Smith is interviewing with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, so we make sure to hit on that item. Alex and I then give our picks against the spread for the four NFL Divisional round playoff games that will take place this weekend based on the betting lines provided by show sponsor MyBookie.ag. This 122-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted above and we close things out by answering a few emails we have received from listeners. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.
