McDaniel's Interview and Culture Fit Detroit hosted Mike McDaniel on Tuesday for the offensive coordinator job. He left without a deal and may be headed to Nashville to meet the Titans or another NFL team. The first question in Detroit is simple. Does he fit the culture and the way this staff wants to run the room? If the answer is yes, the upside is obvious. The Lions are in full offseason mode and this opening sits at the center of it. What His Offense Could Unlock in Detroit McDaniel's value shows up in the run game. Miami's offense scores at the one-yard line with regularity because of design. Jalen Waddle is fast. Tyreek Hill is fast. Tua has limitations, yet the scheme squeezes production from the whole group. Devin Hian is not a big back, but he constantly runs into space. That is the point. Create angles. Create daylight. Finish in the low red zone. Picture that with Jahmyr Gibbs. Detroit can run outside zone and be fine at it. The conversation is how much wide zone you want, and how the current offensive line fits. A blend is on the table. Gap scheme. Zone scheme. You can marry both and lean into weekly matchups. McDaniel's passing game can live in quick answers for Jared and still hit explosives. Dagger concept. A go ball to J Mo. Get the ball out, then punish coverage when it bites. That mix fits what the Detroit Lions have built and what this offense already does well. If He Chooses Detroit—and What's Next McDaniel may prefer a head coaching job. If that door closes, Detroit offers a place to reset and light up scoreboards for a year or two. Put up numbers. Win games. Then reassess. The Lions need to decide if the voice, the rhythm, and the install align with their standards. If it clicks, this would be a dynamic hire for the Detroit Lions and one of the most intriguing moves of the NFL offseason. There is more on deck. The crew is pushing daily content and rolling into early draft talk. Draft videos are coming, with some early draft crushes for the 2026 NFL Draft teased on the show. The search for an offensive coordinator leads the week, but Detroit's broader plan is clear. Keep building. Make the right hire. Maximize a roster that is ready to go. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EIdcjOEvuZY #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #detroitlionsoffensivecoordinatorsearch #mikemcdanielinterview #culturefit #runninggame #lowredzone #outsidezone #widezone #gapscheme #jameergibbsusage #jaredquickgame #jmodeepshots #daggerconcept #goball #2026nfldraftcrushes #tennesseetitansinterview Learn more about your ad choices.

Hour 3 opens with some lighthearted banter as Omar complains (jokingly) about missing Hollywood's birthday and discusses what he's looking for in a partner, leading into a conversation about Bill Belichick and his relationship with Jordan Hudson. The discussion then turns to the Dolphins, with Omar criticizing Tua Tagovailoa's usage this season and Hollywood debating how Tua's limitations affected Miami's offense. Jordan McPherson, Miami Herald Canes writer, joins to break down the Hurricanes' national championship preparations, focusing on Carson Beck, Malachi Toney's breakout performance, and the ongoing search for a transfer QB like Alabama's Ty Simpson. The hour closes with a conversation about a Jaguars reporter who faced backlash after a season-ending press conference, comparing reactions in different sports markets and discussing media expectations.

Welcome to a high-octane episode of Running it Back, where the lessons of sports leadership meet the chaos of the 2026 NFL postseason. Host Mike Palmer is joined by Tarlin Ray and Isaac Tellechea to break down the systems, the carousels, and the "crocodile tears" defining this year's quarterback drama. QUICK CHECK-IN Tarlin gives a brief update on his upcoming hip replacement surgery. He is navigating a five-day prep window—which includes boarding his dog, Chia, to keep the recovery environment germ-free. QUARTERBACK CONTROVERSIES AND LESSONS LEARNED The episode's namesake harkens back to Terrell Owens' infamous defense of Tony Romo. The crew uses this lens to examine today's leadership dynamics: THE SUNK COST OF TUA: The Dolphins' season is a "train wreck," leaving Tua Tagovailoa as an emergency third-stringer despite his massive contract. THE SYSTEM VS. THE TALENT: The crew debates if organizations fail quarterbacks more than the other way around. BRYCE YOUNG AND DREW BREES: Tarlin draws a parallel between Bryce Young and a young Drew Brees, arguing that elite "closers" need the right offensive coordinator to unlock their potential. THE CALEB WILLIAMS BLUEPRINT: In Chicago, Ben Johnson is credited with "speeding up" Caleb Williams by forcing faster decision-making. DURABILITY IS THE TOP ABILITY: Mike emphasizes that while talent is great, durability is the ultimate asset, comparing the "horse" that is Josh Allen to the injury concerns surrounding Jaxon Dart and Tua. 2026 PLAYOFF AND SUPER BOWL PREDICTIONS With heavyweights like Mahomes and Burrow out of the mix, the path to the Lombardi is wide open. Who do we got? Listen in to find out... "Josh Allen is like Jon Snow pulling the sword out for the big battle *Battle of the Bastards),. If you extend that analogy, then, clearly Matthew Stafford is clearly the Night King." — Mike Palmer. TIMESTAMPS 00:00:00 - Intro and Tarlin's medical update. 00:08:00 - The "That's My Quarterback" origin story. 00:15:00 - The Tua Tagovailoa tragedy in Miami and "Kafkaesque" Giants. 00:27:00 - John Elway, Drew Brees, and the importance of QB development time. 00:33:00 - The "Ben Johnson Effect" in Chicago. 00:39:00 - Super Bowl picks and Josh Allen's legacy.

Detroit Lions Podcast: Lions Contact Mike McDaniel for OC OC Search Turns to Mike McDaniel The Detroit Lions fired John Morton. The Miami Dolphins fired head coach Mike McDaniel. Credible reports say the Lions contacted McDaniel about the offensive coordinator vacancy. The outreach reads like due diligence. He is a viable candidate with an inventive mind and a track record. The question is fit. Practice Tape and Scheme Mismatch Joint practices this summer left scars. McDaniel hardly engaged with players. Aloof and off putting came up around that field. Detroit just moved on from an OC players did not feel connected to. A repeat would be costly. The Dolphins offense landed bottom 10 in scoring and yards in each of the past two years and trended the wrong way. The usage did not match the roster. Tua was asked to throw short to the speediest wide receiving group in the game. The offensive line was asked to hold longer on routes he was not going to throw. That is a disconnect between talent and scheme. In the red zone the tells were obvious. You could read the call from the formation. That predictability helped stall drives. It mirrors a Detroit sore spot from this season. Detroit Context: Adapt or Fail Detroit at times called plays like Sam Laporta and Frank Rigg now were available. They were not. Results suffered. Miami's issues looked similar. In those joint sessions the Lions defense beat the living hell out of Miami, especially the first day. Detroit knew what was coming. Think Tecmo Super Bowl when you pick the play and blow it up. Miami did not adjust. Players did not show fight. McDaniel stood and took it. That picture matters when you weigh scheme flexibility and sideline communication inside this NFL building. Alternatives and a Blough Path There is a workable path if Detroit believes in McDaniel's concepts. Install him as OC and make David Blough the passing game coordinator. Let Blough learn the system for a year or two. Groom him. It is plausible. McDaniel has worked with dynamic offensive weapons. Devon A. Sheen compares to a smaller Jamir Gibbs. Jalen Waddle and Tyreek Hill thrived in space. Translating that speed and spacing to Detroit could hit, if the calls match the personnel and situation. Tua is not the answer for Detroit over Jared Goff. That is clear here. Todd Monken remains out there, technically still employed by the Baltimore Ravens. He is interesting and has had success in a variety of spots. The Lions need adaptability, clarity, and player connection. That should drive the hire. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i89gfyp3uvU #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #mikemcdaniel #offensivecoordinatorvacancy #johnmorton #miamidolphins #jointpractices #lionsdefense #redzoneoffense #davidblough #passinggamecoordinator #tua #jaredgoff #samlaporta #frankriggnow #toddmonken Learn more about your ad choices.

Knowing the Dolphins situation with Tua, their current roster and cap issues, Crowder argues potential GM's won't be interested in taking on the Dolphins open GM position.

Joe breaks down the Dolphins' offseason chaos following another crushing loss in cold New England, where Tua's struggles — both physical and confidence-wise — were on full display. He questions Miami's decision to bring in Troy Aikman to assist with the GM search, especially with Dan Marino already in the mix. The conversation covers the Dolphins' urgent need for a “weather-proof” quarterback and the massive work ahead this offseason. Joe also weighs in on the Browns firing Kevin Stefanski and explores whether Lamar Jackson to Miami could be a real possibility.

Joe dives into NFL upheaval as the Browns fire head coach Kevin Stefanski and the Dolphins make a puzzling move by bringing in Troy Aikman to assist with their GM search, despite Dan Marino's longstanding presence in the organization. After another brutal cold-weather loss in New England, Joe questions whether Tua's physical regression and shaken confidence are holding Miami back and stresses the need for a truly weather-proof quarterback. The discussion turns to offseason chaos in Miami, including the real possibility of Lamar Jackson becoming a target. The hour wraps with a check-in on the Florida Panthers at the midway point of the season, with optimism around the returns of Matthew Tkachuk and Aleksander Barkov.

Hour 3 kicks off with Joe breaking down the latest Dolphins drama, including reports that Brandon Shore pushed back on Tua's massive extension and the team's ongoing dysfunction. Omar Kelly joins to discuss Miami's brutal salary cap situation, why trust in the organization is eroding, and the potential impact of keeping Mike McDaniel on the GM search. They debate roster upgrades, missed draft picks, and even explore Anthony Richardson as a possible quarterback project while predicting tough moves like cutting Chubb and Hill. The focus then shifts to the Hurricanes, with Joe highlighting Miami's incredible turnaround, dominant defense, and standout play from Rueben Bain and Akheem Mesidor as the Canes prepare for the CFP semifinal. It's a full hour of analysis on both the Dolphins' looming offseason and Miami football's playoff push.

The Canes dominate the conversation after bullying Ohio State and continuing to believe in themselves, with Keionte Scott's draft stock skyrocketing and Miami now just one win away from potentially playing for a national championship at home. Joe debates the best storyline for the Canes in a title game, whether it's a showdown with Oregon and former coach Mario Cristobal or Indiana led by Miami native QB Fernando Mendoza, as the CFP delivers new blood and shocks with first-round byes going 1–3 and Ole Miss staying hot post–Lane Kiffin. The focus then shifts to the Dolphins, where the GM search, awkward Tua situation, and uncertainty around Mike McDaniel signal another looming rebuild. Joe questions whether Tua returns, doubts Miami can land a premier QB in the draft, and looks ahead to NFL playoff matchups and major offseason decisions.

Joe kicks off the show reacting to the Hurricanes' huge upset over Ohio State before turning to the Dolphins' disastrous season, calling it absolutely pathetic and debating whether Miami needs a full organizational reset. He praises standout Canes like Malachi Toney, Rueben Bain, and Akheem Mesidor as Miami gears up for its CFP semifinal, while also breaking down the chaos of transfer portal recruiting.

From Miami football's rise to Dolphins dysfunction and NFL shakeups, it's a full slate of analysis and insight.

Tobin goes through the list of people who the Dolphins are interviewing for the GM position, Leroy does not want any young analytical guys. We continue to discuss if Mike McDaniel will be back next season, and if we all knew that Tua wasn't the MAJOR issue with the Dolphins. Do they rebuild or keep trying with this personnel? We then dip into the Mixed Bag as we hear from Mike Tomlin and spiral into Tobin's love for Nikola Jovic.

Happy New Year! The guys are back in full effect reacting to the Canes' emotional win over Ohio State to send Miami to the College Football Playoff Semifinals. Tears were shed, adult beverages were consumed, and the Canes are officially BACK. The celebration doesn't last long as the Miami Dolphins' season comes to an ugly end after getting crushed by the Patriots. Leroy has been calling out the awful halftime adjustments all season, and now Mike McDaniel wants to admit it, while Tobin toys with trade scenarios that might include trading the house for Lamar Jackson. The crew is also impressed by Carson Beck's toughness in the Canes' win and previews Miami's matchup with Ole Miss, questioning whether the Hurricanes can continue to dominate in the trenches. Tobin and Brittney weigh in on whether the Winter Classic was a bust, and Leroy hands out his weekly Game Balls and Game Bums. The Dolphins discussion continues with Tobin breaking down GM interview candidates, Leroy rejecting young analytical types, and debate over whether Mike McDaniel returns and if Tua was ever the MAJOR issue. The Mixed Bag delivers sound from Mike Tomlin and spirals into Tobin's love for Nikola Jovic. In the final hour, the guys debate the Ravens rookie kicker's costly miss and whether Leroy still holds grudges against kickers from his playing days. Leroy and Brittney refuse to let Tobin dream about a Canes National Championship — it's strictly TASK AT HAND — before wrapping things up with Alright! Oh No!, Leroy lashing out at Tobin, and everyone agreeing it's a relief that the Dolphins season is finally over.
