Dave Portnoy, founder of Barstool Sports, took a shot at Miami Dolphins head coach, Mike McDaniel for his latest string of strange comments. McDaniel spoke to reporters after the second consecutive loss that the Dolphins faced against the New England Patriots over the weekend, and astounded everyone with his words.
The Dolphins are yet to grab their first win of the season after losing consecutively to the Indianapolis Colts and the New England Patriots. More and more angry fans have been calling for McDaniels’ firing, with the team performing so poorly.

“That’s kind of where the frustration lies for me is it wasn’t deciding that cost us, or a late play call, which that happens at times. But this was not one of those times. I got the play call in, but I need to do a better job supervising the orchestration within our multiple personnel groups. To win games, you have to win the game and not lose the game, honestly. And that is how you lose the game. You’re moving the ball down the field, you’re first-and-10 and then you find yourself at second-and-20. That was critical.” Miami Dolphins head coach, Mike McDaniel said to reporters after the defeat against the New England Patriots.
