Dolphins Shake Up Coaching, Offense to Revive Struggling Season
30 Oct
Summary
- Dolphins suffer 31-6 loss to Browns, drop to 1-6 record
- Coach McDaniel promises changes, says "everything is on the table"
- Dolphins make adjustments, including moving OC to sideline, and defeat Falcons 34-10
In late October 2025, the Miami Dolphins were struggling, having lost three games in a row to drop to a 1-6 record. After a blowout 31-6 defeat to the Cleveland Browns, Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel promised major changes, saying "everything is on the table" as the team looked to turn their season around.
The Dolphins made several key adjustments in the following week. They ran more formations with six offensive linemen, which helped open up the running game and passing lanes. Offensive coordinator Frank Smith also moved from the booth to the sideline, providing more energy and problem-solving on the field. These changes paid off as the Dolphins defeated the Atlanta Falcons 34-10, ending their losing streak.
Despite the win, the Dolphins remain four games below .500 and face a tough upcoming schedule. However, the team has expressed confidence in McDaniel's leadership and believes they can build on their recent success. As they prepare to host the Baltimore Ravens, the Dolphins are focused on maintaining the momentum from their Week 8 victory and continuing to make the necessary adjustments to get their season back on track.
