Despite an 0-2 start for the Miami Dolphins, there's a scenario where head coach Mike McDaniel and general manager Chris Grier keep their jobs that doesn't require them to make the playoffs this season.

Since then, however, McDaniel has gone 8-14, including a 26-7 road playoff defeat to the Kansas City Chiefs in which Miami’s offense appeared lifeless amid the frigid weather. The Dolphins haven’t won a postseason game since 2000, the league’s longest current drought, and appear to be on a sharp downward trajectory.

The 2025 NFL season is just two weeks old, but already, a few coaches are facing pressure. Mike McDaniel and Brian Daboll are among them.

The loss not only dropped Miami to 0-2 heading into Thursday night's game against the Bills in Buffalo but it made head coach Mike McDaniel's seat even hotter. Fans before the game flew a banner over Hard Rock Stadium demanding the Dolphins fire McDaniel and the team's GM and those feelings only intensified after the loss.
