00:00don't hide we saw what happened no you didn't hear it from me you have no idea who you're
00:08talking to right now i'm just a faceless host on a radio program discussing some football
00:17from opening weekend you don't know who i am um again when you look at our youtube page like
00:24i'm unrecognizable maybe i'm the guy who said the dolphins have what it takes and everyone's
00:29underestimating them maybe i'm not that guy you don't know you have no idea right now i'm just a
00:35radio host doing a radio program stand on business you gotta stand on business stand on business who
00:41i'm not speaking to harkman no just call me mr host i'm mr host i can tell you one thing we learned
00:55something yesterday that colts team is good
00:59storm duck likes to hang around behind the receivers it seems
01:09man well storm duck likes to hang out in the training room because uh
01:13i i honestly i don't even know where to begin i really i don't i i literally do not know where
01:20to begin 25 points that's like you don't lose but we talked about it we talked about it last
01:28you know there's blowouts in college there's not 25 point wins in the nfl and and really it was a
01:36shutout i mean devon a chan did like devon a chan in my opinion saved more conversation about
01:46mike mcdaniel and two up by single-handedly saying i'm not leaving this field until that ball
01:54crosses the goal line i refuse it was like greg camarillo running down the sideline
02:00devon a chan said we are not going out this way that was the moral victory devon a chan and then
02:07the two-point conversion from solana's guy julian hill i mean uh that's the moment you've been waiting
02:12for us a lot hey crowder correct me if i'm wrong but you're down 33 to nothing probably the worst
02:19game you've had as a head coach in four years and it's fourth and 11 in the fourth quarter
02:25and you throw a pass behind the line of scrimmage from the 11 yard line like a credit to devon h
02:32and for getting in i mean that dude literally bulldozed everybody and there was a block in front
02:36of them i don't know who set the block great block but that's the play fourth and 11 and you
02:42throw the ball behind you to the 13 yard line on a screen pass and force your running back to just
02:50go get you a touchdown like how is that the play how they had nothing left nothing else i just that's
02:59why i was looking now i'm doing the math if devon a chance not in this not on the field they have
03:06139 yards of total offense zero touchdowns they had 211 which that's embarrassing to have 211 total
03:15yards offense he had 72 do the math 139 yards of offense in an nfl game if devon a chance not there
03:24the 211 isn't there 211 yards of total offense 43 in the first half we were not prepared what is
03:34tony kornheiser and him do the little blank line unprepared to play an nfl game yesterday
03:42they have 41 total yards of offense in the first half 41 they did not pass half field
03:50they did not in the first half of football for the miami dolphins and i know two of those the
03:56interception and then he has the bad fumble but the dolphins first half of football so much for our
04:03scripted drive that's always a touchdown hawk by the way i mean that's a no-brainer i i was gonna cash
04:09in big on that one the dolphins did not pass half field how do you know i i was watching the game
04:19yesterday andrew catalan said something amazing when they came back for the second half the dolphins
04:24had 41 yards of total offense the colts ran 41 plays in the first half that's i mean that's almost
04:36impossible all right let me let me let me let me get into the the nuts and bolts here the monday
04:41rewind on wqam is sponsored by chevy it's chevy truck month and it's time to see why chevy is america's
04:47most dependable lineup of trucks chevrolet together let's drive um here's the good news
04:53we are literally less than a month away from the panthers raising the banner on their second stanley
05:00cup championship so uh you know we got like a we got like three and a half weeks to mess around
05:07with this nonsense and then we'll talk some panthers hockey i mean they're gonna they start
05:11i think it's october 7th or 6th or 5th like we're less than a month away so yeah first week also
05:1744 days until the miami heat season opener gentlemen i'm just uh i'm prepared here okay just letting you
05:23know norman powell's gonna look better than to a tongue of iloa i promise you that much we're gonna
05:27i i look better than to a tongue of iloa i hope so i i terry rogier looks better than to a tongue of
05:34iloa our star is julian hill come on man we need to what are you doing sports talk on wqam is sponsored
05:46by paramount plus you can't count on much but you can always count on sundays with the nfl on cbs and
05:51paramount plus stream your local nfl game live every sunday all season long starting at just 30 for your
05:58first year that's like two dollars and 50 cents a month visit paramount plus dot com slash nfl to get
06:04started today um you talk about being unprepared so i'm watching dan orlovsky this morning on espn and
06:11i screen grabbed his quote dan orlovsky said there's no singular blame to come out week one like that was
06:21shocking they looked unmotivated unprepared and unaggressive yeah that's to me a testament on
06:32the coach and this so-called new culture which was all lip service it was lip service
06:38oh unprepared x and o wise you saw it you saw just turnovers 41 yards or off like you saw that side of
06:49it to dan orlovsky's point to seem as if i'll say seem that you don't want to play a football game
06:58that goes a lot deeper into the locker room and the coaching's the coach's offices they didn't it
07:06seem they didn't want to be out there 25 points that's crazy it it felt to me as if they adopted my
07:17mindset which was ignore last year only consider what happened in 2023 now the difference is i'm not
07:26the head coach of the team i'm not one of the players on the team but that's been my mindset
07:30hey you guys can all panic about what you saw last year hey you guys can all panic about the exodus of
07:36great players or leaders that happened during the offseason but i know this team is really good
07:43now again i'm just a guy on the radio saying that but that was my attitude going into it but i felt
07:50like that was their attitude after i watched that game and that was nothing less than shocking to me
07:56because i i said it a million times mike mcdaniel knowing that he's got to kind of reprove himself
08:05as an offensive mastermind came out with that to a knowing that there's some heat on this team
08:13and heat with him and the relationship with tyreek and we talked about how he's going to assert himself
08:20for him to come out there and do that i mean he looked as bad as he's looked in his entire career here
08:27and i don't know what to do with it i would love to do some shtick say that uh oh i saw some positive
08:36things julian hill's gonna make up for johnny smith's productivity but i didn't see anything i i didn't
08:46it was really like having the rug pulled out from under you like didn't see anything that gave me any
08:54confidence in mike mcdaniel or tua or this vaunted front seven or like nothing not nothing
09:05our special teams can can we can we clap it up the special teams ds bridge pretty well done
09:12nice return yeah all right ds bridge uh they missed jason sanders energy on the sidelines in my
09:20opinion that probably cost 21 points yeah our strengths were not strengths our weaknesses were
09:27taken advantage of that's that's that that's the definition of a bad team i'll give you some
09:35get the bad one out the way so you can go and beat up on the pets and the and the bills and the jets
09:41the jets scored 32 damn points with justin fields we scored eight on a fourth and 15 i'm worried hawk
09:51no i'm throwing up i'm i'm concerned about this roster in this team i i know a lot of people had
10:00the take and we discussed it on friday this feels like maybe not like a must must win but tobin was
10:06calling it a gotta have it right like this one was important for for all the reasons we explained
10:10the narratives start to really percolate if you lose that game but truthfully the the colts hadn't
10:16won a home opener or hadn't won an opener since i think 2013 like over 4 000 days i heard shefter say
10:22this morning on mcafee and the the emotional aspect of ursa passing away like there was just a lot of
10:29things going into that game where hey the dolphins i thought were a good team good teams beat good teams
10:35sometimes beat great teams but oftentimes lose to mediocre to bad teams also so losing to the colts
10:43in my opinion wasn't going to be the end of the world but looking that way losing to the colts the coach
10:50wasn't prepared the team wasn't prepared the coach wasn't motivated the team wasn't motivated
10:56and your roster does not look like it it can compete with daniel jones and the colts that's a
11:03huge issue that's the most alarming thing right daniel jones looked like the best quarterback you've
11:09ever seen play nfl football prime peyton manning i was watching prime peyton manning yesterday
11:15with legs he was running in touchdowns as well as throwing i want daniel jones let's trade straight up
11:23tour for daniel they were not prepared to play a nfl game that that's extremely concerning a couple
11:32things that i was wrong on for sure um storm duck and jack jones are not the next sam and pat
11:40they may be the next bartles and james
11:43you're telling me storm isn't sam madison you literally would have had as an effective
11:53secondary duo out there if you had hall and oats they're in their 70s
11:59i mean it was remarkable by the way miami football reports on wqam are sponsored by miami
12:08dade county public schools technical colleges mdcps technical colleges offer over 60 affordable
12:14accredited programs day or evening hands-on training aligned with local employers call 305-558-8000
12:21or visit career in a year dot com and launch your future today i will tell you there is an
12:30unbelievable amount of talk about the dolphins because of how bad they looked half the teams
12:36lost yesterday that's how it works half the teams are going to win half are going to lose
12:41the conversation about the dolphins has been happening all over national media because of just
12:51how bad they looked teams get beat there's no shame in getting beat ravens there is shame
12:58in what happened yesterday in indianapolis 41 40 i watched the game last night i know y'all did
13:04the bills and the ravens the ravens lost but they scored 40 points and they got beat with the last
13:10second figure buccaneers beat the the um falcons by three like we watched a lot of football no one gets
13:18beat by 25 points in the nfl that's why the word is unprepared this team was not ready and this
13:28no words minced this is a coaching staff thing this team was not prepared to play football yesterday
13:37when one and personnel and i've been a chris career defender and it's not just a coaching thing
13:44this is a personnel problem as well because as much as i wanted to believe in storm duck and jack
13:49jones storm duck got exposed the first couple passes that went his way but it's not just that
13:55like we're always talking about is it the the chef in the kitchen who has the right groceries or is it
14:00the person supplying the groceries guys it's everything it's everything because i tweeted this out yesterday
14:06at the end of the first quarter the tight end you signed to go out there and fill johnny smith your
14:12most productive player on the offense last season outside of devon hn inactive for week one the right
14:18guard you signed that was supposed to be the big signing for this offensive line to finally solidify
14:23it along with a rookie you drafted who got torn up yesterday was out within five plays and mike
14:29mcdaniel just confirmed now he's going to be out a couple weeks at the very least out in five plays
14:35and the cornerback that wasn't even number one option but number two option who was fifth on your
14:40depth chart last year in cornerbacks who was your big answer out before the end of the first half
14:46with an injury and after getting torn up by the way for a score like those were the answers to the
14:52biggest holes that the dolphins had for from chris greer and one guy wasn't available one guy coming
14:58off an achilles tear played five snaps and left with an injury clearly body can't hold up anymore and
15:03the other guy who shouldn't even be out there who probably wouldn't start for any other team in the
15:07nfl as the number one option in the secondary got torn up and then out with an injury and then you
15:16have no other options that's a personnel problem it's for sure a mcdaniel problem but it's both
15:23they're both inept both
15:25huh there's i almost felt bad for anthony weaver to your point solana like what can i call
15:35y'all can't play man coverage on these guys and we're not talking about jamar chase
15:41that's the thing it was it was daniel jones and uh and downs who is this down down is randy moss
15:53what's going on anthony weaver hit there's no way he can sleep for the next 10 nights if he watched
15:58that buffalo game last night because that's who's coming after new england there's no way anthony weaver
16:04can sleep you can't double team everybody and that's solana you i have a feeling if they were
16:13able to play 22 guys on defense and double team everyone they'd still get beat lost by 11 not 25
16:20bro like i see people like oh the defense the defense and yeah the defense did not look good
16:28at all yesterday but first half your quarterback is killing you the dolphins offense is supposed to
16:35at the very least win the field position battle right like if you can't score you punt the ball
16:40put your defense in a good situation two consecutive drives to start the game after the culture already
16:45score turnover they're in plus territory already like the offense killed killed the momentum of that
16:53entire game and put the defense in a terrible situation terrible here's the good news though
16:58it's gonna make it that much sweeter when they beat up on new england this sunday put your money on the
17:06dolphins laying the points sunday i am telling you this is the way things work this is how you listen
17:13tell your friends uncle mark he said bet the farm on the dolphins laying points hook they're the favorites
17:20against new england how many day boom take it to the bank i think how many have right what is that
17:27two they're two and a half point favorites i don't know i can't ride with you on this one big fella
17:34i've been i've been i've been on a heater i had the over last night and the overlap they needed a fourth
17:42and 13 to score a touchdown with five minutes left in the fourth quarter now they're just gonna run
17:49through the patriots hawk what's the alternate line can we get the dolphins minus 10 again
17:54yeah that didn't work out for me it's dolphins minus two dolphins are two point favorites
18:00got my winner no it's too easy i'm telling you i know how these dolphins teams bounce back with
18:10the mike mcdaniel at the helm i've seen this so he's he's going to adjust to the colts
18:17game and then now they're gonna are we talking about he wasn't ready he wasn't ready his calendar
18:24was wrong he didn't even know it was opening weekend he got a faulty calendar he's got a sue apple

20:19ahead on that one also the biggest sporting event ever on the cw which is where it will air
20:26i'm betting i'm betting canes heavy what's the line two touchdowns or something it's big yeah i think
20:35it was 13 and a half or 14 yeah the cane there florida's not built to win but the canes are
20:41gonna wear usf out i don't want to jinx y'all but i mean the same thing happened last year
20:45bortnoy tweet out today dave bortnoy tweeted out today if usf beats miami they should be number
20:50one in the nation without any questions yeah no it's i want i watched the the notre dame game and
20:56i watched florida usf miami's about to show them a 17 and a half is the line that's a lot of points
21:04man that is a lot of points but they're not ready for listen reuben bain is gonna go crazy
21:11the same thing happened last year this saturday fau fiu fiu coming off a big big performance give
21:18it up for the willie simmons era i listened to it i was driving up to tampa on saturday i listened to
21:24fiu penn state on the radio yeah yeah credit to the uh to the panthers they covered didn't lose by 42
21:33and a half they did cover they did better than anyone expected i think it was seven nothing with
21:38like two minutes to go in the first half and then penn state scored a little field goal and
21:42then drew aller through that stupid touchdown uh but they covered man well done willie simmons era
21:48baby off to a great start one and one prouder you can't laugh at anything collegiately you cannot let
21:53no you cannot no no comments no laughter anything about college football you cannot laugh or comment
21:58but usf had a little silly field goal late and a little stupid uh touchdown and that's why we lost to
22:04him you were at the swamp oh listen this billy napier he might want to start packing he needs some
22:11boxes if anybody has boxes send them to billy napier's house so he can start gathering his
22:17his his his his items no because the the ad came out and and released a statement again right in support
22:23of of billy napier did i get fooled by last year's memo from the i thought that might have been last
22:28year's memo okay i think that's what that was yeah it's possible there's no way after he would do
22:34the same thing after another marge hey fire up that memo again okay so lsu number three um number five
22:49texas number seven texas a&m number 16 our next four games are highly ranked teams
22:56we that that's what i saw saturday that's gonna get wore out versus those four teams
23:05telling you so much for lagway being the best quarterback in florida too that's a good take
23:11by you yeah i think he might have had some dirt in his eye he kept wiping his face williams i think
23:18he's behind our second string quarterback i think williams was actually inside of his eye he was
23:24sitting there i couldn't see i saw photoshop they they renamed them to uh lagalalee like uh
23:31that was funny bears versus vikings tonight in monday night football by the way that's your final
23:40game of the week one slate and um and then the regular season starts sunday with dolphins and
23:48patriots at hard rock stadium stop texting mcdaniel i knew i'd find something before the show was over
23:56mike mcdaniel got the calendar wrong
23:59your weather it's uh it's hot it's humid who cares man the dolphins stink for the matter that's your
24:07weather imagine mike mcdaniel surprised when he showed up to that stadium and it was sold out
24:13he's like this is weird man for preseason game four man these indianapolis fans are crazy about
24:20football that that that was the problem please let that have been the problem please don't tell me
