No one was more pumped about the Dolphins’ upset win over the Bills on Sunday than Mike McDaniel. Moments after Miami sealed a stunning 30-13 home win against their division rival, the embattled Dolphins coach — whose job security has been a prominent 2025 storyline — delivered a passionate locker room speech as his team improved to 3-7. “I’m so f–king proud of you guys,” McDaniel said. “That’s some cold-blooded s–t. That’s some cold-blooded s–t. This is the whole f–king point. Enjoy this one, guys, because you earned every f–king inch.” It was a jubilant scene in the Dolphins’ locker room, with players rolling around in laundry bins and dancing after knocking off their favored rival, who entered the game at 6-2. Not a whole lot went right for the Bills on Sunday, with Buffalo failing to capitalize on a Tua Tagovailoa interception in the first quarter, followed by a second-quarter fumble. Buffalo remained scoreless at halftime, 16-0. Reigning league MVP Josh Allen tried to spark the Bills’ offense in the third, but was picked off on a short pass while driving to the end zone. The Bills got their two scores of the day in the fourth quarter, but Miami pulled away with touchdowns on back-to-back drives. The win has certainly lightened the mood in South Florida following a transitional few weeks. The Dolphins split from longtime general manager Chris Grier in late October, then sent star pass rusher Jaelen Phillips to the Eagles ahead of last Tuesday’s trade deadline. McDaniel, now in his fourth season at the helm, is believed to be safe through the season, ESPN previously reported. The Dolphins will travel to Madrid this coming week for an international clash against the Commanders (3-7).
