00:00
Just to show you the stats yesterday for Tuatunga Bailoa, he returned and the offense looked
00:08
as good as it has all year.
00:11
234 yards, a 13-yard scramble, and a slide that led to a standing ovation in South Florida
00:19
and a touchdown.
00:20
Again, Miami had not scored more than 20 points this year.
00:24
They were the worst scoring offense in the NFL entering yesterday.
00:28
They put up 27, albeit in a losing effort.
00:31
And again, Donnie, although Tuatunga Bailoa is back, the offense looks a ton better.
00:37
Miami is 2-5 in 1-6 against the spread this year, losing outright as a favorite four times.
00:46
There's not a lot of time left for Miami to turn it around.
00:49
Can the Dolphins even factor into the playoff conversation the rest of the way?
00:53
I don't think so.
00:54
You came back, and the reason I loved Tuatunga Bailoa coming back is, number one, it's going
00:58
to play a bad defense.
00:59
But number two, it opens up the running game.
01:00
Like Devontae Chan ran for 9.7 yards per carry and then chipped in with an extra six catches
01:04
for 50 yards, and you still lost that game because your defense was bad.
01:08
Remember all the fun we had in the offseason?
01:10
Like, hey, man, Vic Fangio's going to the Eagles, and they show, like, kicking rocks,
01:13
and thank God that guy's gone.
01:14
Well, I'll tell you, you probably needed Vic Fangio yesterday to hold the Arizona Cardinals
01:17
to under 28 points, and you would have won that football game.
01:20
Now, we did have a spirited conversation yesterday on the desk at Pro Football Today.
01:25
The old guard, me and Joe Lisi, would never wear the Guardian cap.
01:28
Kevin Walsh said he would wear the Guardian cap.
01:30
So, Ben, we throw it to you.
01:32
Would you wear the Guardian cap in the NFL as a quarterback?
01:34
Because for me, look, forget about your life expectancy and your quality of life after
01:38
50.
01:39
Swag is way more important to me.
01:40
So there you go.
01:41
I know.
01:42
I know swag matters more to you.
01:44
I don't love the Guardian cap, right?
01:47
I don't know how much.
01:49
I would have to do my research, DRS, to really see the numbers on if it does reduce concussions
01:54
by a ton.
01:55
If it did, maybe.
01:58
I saw a great meme, by the way.
01:59
Mike McDaniel asking Tua Tungabai Lowe to wear a Guardian cap, so he put on Cleveland's
02:04
MLB team's hat.
02:06
That was pretty good.
