Miami Dolphins<\/a> head coach Mike McDaniel initially liked that his quarterback, Tua Tagovailoa, was keeping his teammates accountable.\u00a0<\/p>\n

But one day after yet another Dolphins loss, McDaniel didn\u2019t like Tagovailoa publicly calling out anonymous teammates.\u00a0<\/p>\n

During his Monday press conference, McDaniel clarified that he actually didn\u2019t hear what Tagovailoa said during his post-game presser following a 29-27 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers<\/a>. After reflection, McDaniel criticized his quarterback.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Regardless of intent and what was on Tua\u2019s mind, after a loss, as the franchise quarterback, that\u2019s not the forum to displace that,” McDaniel explained. “I think he knows that now. I do, honestly believe, there\u2019s no ill intention. But you\u2019re talking about kind of a misrepresentation of player-orchestrated film sessions.”<\/p>\n

Tagovailoa\u2019s comments<\/a> went viral, as he suggested other members of the Dolphins needed to start showing more effort.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Well, I think it starts with the leadership in helping articulate that for the guys, and then what we’re expecting out of the guys,” he explained. “We’re expecting this. Are we getting that? Are we not getting that?\u00a0<\/p>\n

“We have guys showing up to player-only meetings late. Guys not showing up to player-only meetings. There is a lot that goes into that. Do we have to make that mandatory? Do we not have to make that mandatory? So it’s a lot of things of that nature that we got to get cleaned up. It starts with the little things like that.”<\/p>\n

Here’s how McDaniel initially responded to Tagovailoa\u2019s comments:<\/p>\n

“Player-led meetings are extra things outside of what I demand. We\u2019ve been very accountable to me. It sounds like there was something on his mind with regard to the specific meetings with a couple individuals that he was trying to get corrected by being direct with communication. I think that\u2019s the only way to lead.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“As far as where we\u2019ve been at as a program, I think we\u2019ve opened the air on all of that and it\u2019s very clear how we hold people accountable and what\u2019s non-negotiable with all those things. Clearly, he\u2019s sending a message, but from my standpoint, everything that I\u2019ve asked of the guys, they have delivered on and so I\u2019m sure whomever he\u2019s talking to, they\u2019ll deliver as well as he\u2019s a direct communicator with his teammates.”<\/p>\n

The Dolphins found themselves in position to hand the Chargers its third straight loss on Sunday as Darren Waller scored the go-ahead touchdown in the fourth quarter. But Justin Herbert and the Chargers\u2019 offense picked up critical yardage to eventually give Cameron Dicker a game-winning field goal opportunity that he didn\u2019t squander.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Dolphins are 1-5 this season with their only win against a lackluster New York Jets club in Week 4. This start had led many to debate how long McDaniel has left in the head coach\u2019s seat in Miami, and losing like this naturally causes frustration in the locker room.\u00a0<\/p>\n

And though he likes seeing one of his leaders being proactive with accountability, McDaniel is hoping Tagovailoa keeps those conversations behind closed doors.\u00a0<\/p>\n
