As the NFL season is just days away, the Miami Dolphins decided that their head coach is here to stay for the long run, and fans of the team have been erupting on social media in support of the extension.
Miami Dolphins Lock Mike McDaniel In Till 2028
Miami is one of the scarier teams in the AFC, as they have super speed all over the field. While they have made the postseason in back-to-back years, they have yet to win a playoff game under the leadership of head coach Mike McDaniel and quarterback Tua Tagovailoa.
That hasn’t stopped the team from locking in both their quarterback and head coach for the long run. They have had one of the best offenses in the game under McDaniel, and it is clear that he is one of the most creative and progressive thinkers as head coach on the offensive side of the ball.
Before McDaniel, the team was heading in the wrong direction, and he came in a quickly turned it around. They have recently been one of the most innovative teams on offense where their play designs and getting their super speed players in open spaces. McDaniel deserves tremendous credit for what he has done, and that is why all the Miami fans have been celebrating this extension on social media.

“Well deserved. He has done WONDERS for Miami. I bet he leads them to a Super Bowl by 2028,” one fan said.
“happy for coach & love what he’s shown during his time in miami. that said, 2028 looks like stephen ross’ deadline’ to win something meaningful,” said one Dolphins fan.
“Not remotely surprised by this. There’s a portion of the fandom that doesn’t appreciate him enough,” said another fan.
“He’s still gonna lose to a cold weather team in the playoffs,” said another fan, noting McDaniel’s playoff losses to Buffalo and Kansas City in frigid conditions.
“First time in a long time that we have such a talented core of players and coaches locked in long term. Goals still left to meet, but I’m optimistic,” another Dolphins fan added.
This year the AFC East should present different issues for the team, as the Buffalo Bills and New York Jets will be in the mix to win the division. However, this could easily be the Dolphins’ year to take over that division.
