After spending the past two days with the two finalists for the Miami Dolphins’ head coach position a decision, and offer to become the franchise’s 11th head coach and the fifth during Steve Ross’ 13-year tenure as owner, is expected shortly.
San Francisco 49ers offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel, who reportedly met with Ross and his selection committee for 10 hours on Friday, entered the weekend viewed as the front-runner to replace Brian Flores. But team sources say Dallas Cowboys offensive coordinator Kellen Moore delivered an impressive presentation on Saturday.
The decision will likely come down to which of these two young offensive coordinators the Dolphins feel is the better leader of men, and will deliver the offense they believe will bring out the best in quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, Miami’s 2020 first-round pick, who had a 90.1 passer rating last season and owns a 13-8 record in his first two seasons.
