Tobin and Leroy react to Mike McDaniel's flat out lie that Tua is not the team's savior.
Transcript
00:00Uh, the dolphins from Barry Jackson, he tweets out with barriers, Braxton burials
00:04loss for the year, the dolphins were scheduled to work out some receivers
00:07today.
00:08Um, he says they have a few options.
00:11Sign a new guy to the 53, sign a new guy to the practice squad and promote
00:15the Eskridge who he says has return abilities or Eric as a comma.
00:20Uh, they could also elevate that scourge.
00:22He has one elevation left to the 53 man, so they could do that.
00:27And apparently if they do that, he, uh, they, they would only have to clear
00:30one roster spot for two, who's obviously going to come back from
00:33concussion protocol this week.
00:34So the, basically the practice squad is like 10 day.
00:40Yeah.
00:40But I think you only get so many promotions.
00:42Yeah.
00:42Like a two way.
00:43It's like a two way, two way.
00:45Yeah.
00:45It's like a two way.
00:46So that's a, that's something to keep an eye on what the
00:49dolphins are going to do there.
00:50Yeah.
00:51As you come is always so good in the preseason.
00:53I can't believe he stinks.
00:55Yeah, it is.
00:56You know what?
00:58It's a different, the hardest thing to do is get comfortable playing football,
01:06regardless of what the circumstances are.
01:09Right.
01:10Like teams look at it as I've seen you do this, but sometimes
01:18the players not thinking that you can't like, it may be the biggest
01:23and best opportunity you may ever get.
01:26You're only going to fail when you start thinking of it like that.
01:29You got to think of it as just, I'm going to play football.
01:32And, and so a lot of guys get, when I hear guys with interviews and
01:37they talk about how big it is, and this is huge and this is that, and
01:41this no dude, to you, it's a football game, the circumstances in which you
01:46perform are always going to be the same.
01:48You go in the field, you try to perform.
01:51Right.
01:51So like, and don't worry about the outcome.
01:54The younger players tend to worry about the outcome more than the process.
02:00Well, speaking of receivers Tua and the non-concussion category did talk a
02:06little bit about the football team.
02:08And he was asked about the idea of the team really struggling to get the ball
02:13to Tyree kill and Jaylon Waddle in his absence, here's what Tua had to say
02:18about that.
02:19Listen, I think it's really tough to ask any of our quarterbacks to come in, to
02:24do the footwork that we've been doing for the past two years to see fast guys
02:31running and seeing the space that's there and asking them to kind of process all
02:37of that.
02:38We, we, we looked at film, we were able to see what we missed and what we could
02:44have got better with, but it's, it's a team sport.
02:47It shouldn't take one position for this whole thing to, to, to crumble.
02:51It, everybody needs to be on their, their P's and Q's as well.
02:56I mean, I don't know, Tua, I mean, that's, that's, that's nice of you to say
02:59about the quarterbacks, but like, I get it, you know, it is a team sport.
03:06We always put way too much into the quarterbacks, but if those
03:09quarterbacks are stinkers, my question is this as an offensive coordinator,
03:17if you have a guy that you've done all this stuff with, can't you simplify the,
03:23the, the, the route combinations for the next guy?
03:30So for example, you ever hear to say, Oh, they're going to give
03:33him a nice three level throw.
03:36You got a shallow cross, a mid cross and a deep post or a deep corner.
03:42Right?
03:43So you got one, two, three, they're right in front of you.
03:46You rolling out to the right, pick one.
03:49Like, why can't we, why couldn't we have done stuff like that?
03:55Like it's still like every receiver knows how to run a damn route tree.
04:02You going into a game and changing that route tree doesn't mean all of a sudden
04:07the damn wide receivers don't know how to run routes, you know, you got to try.
04:13Do you think it was so much as like, he really wanted them to be conservative?
04:20I do.
04:20I do.
04:21Because again, to ask somebody else to come in, make decisions, the way to
04:29ahead to make decisions is unfair, not only to the team, but to those guys.
04:33So basically he tried to go into his playbook that kind of made breeds easier.
04:41They weren't those quick throws, but then you put your quarterback in trouble
04:46because now you're patting the ball back there.
04:48It is amazing how much, uh, a guy like Mike McDaniel, who were saying, you
04:52know, old wheelbarrow balls, you know, he would go for it no matter what
04:56he'd go for it on his own 20.
04:59Bad quarterback will make you get conservative quick.
05:01Is he, is he any different than any other coach?
05:04No, but that's what I'm saying.
05:05Like it changes you as a person, you know, it almost seemed like it broke
05:10Mike McDaniel as a man, not having to, he was like, dude, I'm shook.
05:16I'm broke.
05:17Yeah.
05:17I'm trying everything yet.
05:20He did tell the media that he told the team to, uh, is not our savior.
05:27Across the board.
05:28I think everyone would say that he's the leader of this team.
05:30So I think that's a powerful thing, um, that, you know, his, his,
05:35his team will appreciate.
05:37You know, I think it's important to, uh, to state and to, to, you know, the, what
05:43I just finished talking to the team about is that he's, um, he, he's not the savior
05:49either.
05:50Um, there's, there's a lot of things that have to be looked at from, uh, an
05:55individual's game and, uh, you know, all three phases, um, to get there, uh,
06:01because, you know, it's, I'm for it right now.
06:07Let me tell you something, you know, as much as I like Mike McDaniel and I
06:12support what he's trying to do.
06:13And I get the dilemma that he's been in the last few weeks.
06:16That's a lie.
06:18Why?
06:19That's a lie because I would tell you, like, tell you right now, they say tools
06:24coming back and everybody all around the city say,
06:31right.
06:32You got, wait, watch out, watch out, watch how fast, watch how fast these
06:37routes that waddle in, in Tyreek running now, uh, coach, uh, if he's not the
06:43savior, you think like some smart-ass player just goes, how could we just
06:47heard you cry tears of joy before the meeting?
06:54Uh, Mike, we just got the final clearance.
06:55He's good to go.
06:56Oh, thank you.
06:57Thank you, Jesus.
07:01As a coach, you're always going to say the, the, the, you're going to say
07:07the air, expose some words in your own way, but that's a lie.
07:14Okay.
07:14We knew that when the heat we're playing, we said we got enough.
07:19Who is, who is that?
07:20That's what we say.
07:21Who is that?
07:22Spo would say that when he had Henry Walker going out there on a 10 day,
07:26he goes, yeah, we have enough.
07:28So, so we get a, we get, we get what everybody's trying to do.
07:34And you would hope that you could have somebody to hold a Fort now, but let's
07:39be clear, there's certain positions on your football field, okay.
07:46That or on your team or in your organization that without
07:50them, you don't function.
07:52Did you see the damn Philadelphia Eagles or did you see the New York
07:56Giants without Saquon, man, you see what I mean is day and night.
08:02That's okay.
08:03You got that dude, but let's not, let's try to, we can just plug somebody.
08:09You ain't pay that man, 40, $50 million.
08:11Cause you can plug somebody else in a hundred percent.
08:13Like, look, there's a reason they've referred to him as highest paid
08:17employee before the season started.
08:18Like you can tell me he's not the savior.
08:20Fine.
08:21But why are you giving them all?
08:23He's your savior.
08:25There's a, Hey, we all know there's a reason why quarterback's the
08:28biggest line mover in the game.
08:29It is what it is.
08:30You know, I agree.
08:32He, it can't all be to a, but like, we've all very much noticed.
08:38Like, my God, it has been all.
08:41And by the way, it ain't like he's coming back against the Ravens, you know, like,
08:46let's go, let's go do like when the, when the rope brings on the breaks on the
08:50lawnmower, the lawnmower technically still works, but you can't use it.
08:56Don't start.
