Alex and Scott connect virtually to record an episode late in the week. Because some time has passed since the Texans loss, they don’t spend a lot of time talking about the game, but don’t leave out the obvious flaws that caused it, and take a few moments to appreciate the players who excelled. They discuss the upcoming 49ers game, and make their predictions on it. Most importantly, they discuss what they would say to our owner, Mr. Ross, if given the opportunity. What would the Two Old Dolphins encourage him to change in order to give us all hope on winning a championship? They ran out of time for our “one cool thing” segment, but promise after the Holiday we will resume it.

Alex and Scott connect virtually to record this episode on a Wednesday. The OT win over the Jets was a stresser and the Dolphins D could do little against a QB that hasn’t had a 300 yard day in years, so they are concerned. Jonnu Smith is our hero again and Tua earned this one. Jet’s game talk is well mixed in with the challenge the Dolphins have next: The Texans. These two think it’s going to be a hard road to travel to earn a win in Houston, and explain why. One cool thing has an announcement from Alex and some meandering recommendation on another wine region on the opposite side of the country from Scott.

Alex and Scott head into the studio the day after Thanksgiving to talk football. We hear it, we read it, we’ve talked about it. The Dolphins can’t beat winning teams. The Dolphins can’t win in big games. The Dolphins rarely win on national TV. The Dolphins can’t win in the cold. With the recent exception of beating the Rams on the road on Monday night, they are all true. They will remain true until McDaniel and Tua and this team can prove otherwise. In the last podcast, we talked about the Green Bay game being the perfect opportunity to dispel it all. Not only did this team fail, but they were never really in the game. Tragic. The Jets are up next, and the Jets are a broken awful team. Listen in for the analysis, the Jets prediction, and one cool thing. Maybe a swear word or two in this one.

Scott and Alex get into the studio on a Victory Monday and celebrate the butt kicking Miami gave to the Patriots. Clearly, the Dolphins are back on track, at least beating up on the bad teams. Lot’s of player performances to highlight and positive commentary on coaching too! Now comes the real test. Can McDaniel scheme and play call a win, at night in the cold on national TV against a good team? This is the hurdle he needs to overcome to move past his national narrative. Restaurants are in our one cool thing this week.

First, let us apologize for the Audio quality in this episode. Scott it traveling and forgot to bring some of his equipment. Secondly, as if we had some responsibility for it, let us apologize for the dismal performance of the team we love. They are hard to love. Alex and Scott go as far as to refer to memes in this episode. Alex’s kicks off with his one cool thing and Scott finishes with his, so there are positive bookends to this one, at least for some people, It’s no surprise that the GM and Coach remain on the “firing line” for us, but we work hard to find new ways to approach it. 10 points is not good enough to beat anyone.

Alex and Scott head back into the studio “the day after” the last Dolphins Debacle against the lowly Titans. They discuss elements of the game, the performance of the units and players, the coaching, and the construction of the team which might be the most disappointing in Dolphins history. The sarcasm flows, and might produce some laughter. At the least, it should be thought provoking. Do the Dolphins have any chance to go into New England and beat the Patriots? One thing that will remain positive all season… hang on for the One Cool Thing segment at the end of the podcast.
