"But the past few dismal days have shown the Miami Dolphins coach can be direct and need no translating. On Sunday, he said his team wasn't prepared for their 33-8 embarrassment in Indianapolis in a manner that was obvious but few coaches admit. He then called out a player by name for perhaps the first time in four years. He also made the mistake Monday of saying: "I don't see how it could be worse.''"
"Receiver Tyreek Hill's wife spelled out eight alleged incidents of domestic violence against him in divorce papers, according to a TMZ report. She claims he, "violently attacked her, throwing her to the floor, twisting her intimate body parts, ripping her hair out ...'' She claims he got physical with her while she was pregnant. Hill's lawyers deny the allegations and say she is trying to get more money. The NFL will investigate."
"This is just another problem in an organization full of problems. It suggests again how they invest in the wrong people - at least that's what again played out in on the field in Sunday's opener. Let's be clear: The football problems aren't life-serious ones like domestic violence. They're just football. There's no blending those two issues. But what can be blended is the Dolphins' decisions to invest in problems, and keep investing in them,"
Miami Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel admitted the team wasn't prepared for a 33-8 loss in Indianapolis and publicly criticized a player. He said he couldn't imagine things getting worse, then faced an off-field crisis when Tyreek Hill's wife alleged eight incidents of domestic violence in divorce papers, including violent attacks and incidents during pregnancy. Hill's lawyers deny the allegations, the NFL will investigate, and Hill's tenure would end if claims are proven. The situation highlights recurring organizational decisions to invest in problematic players and raises accountability questions for general manager Chris Grier, coach McDaniel, and owner Steve Ross.
