The Miami Dolphins have officially benched Tua Tagovailoa — and the Quinn Ewers era (for now) is here. After an ugly Dolphins loss in Pittsburgh that exposed the same cold-weather issues and offensive limitations, Tranquilo Sports breaks down what this decision REALLY means for the franchise. We’re joined by Bobby (Dive Bar Pod) to react to the latest Dolphins news, analyze Tua’s performance, and debate what happens next for Mike McDaniel , the roster, and Miami’s future at quarterback. In this episode we cover: ✅ Why the Dolphins loss felt over even at 7–3 halftime ✅ The second-half collapse: defense fatigue, missed tackles, and no urgency ✅ Tua Tagovailoa regression : playing scared, missing throws, refusing to run ✅ Is the benching about Tua… or about the Dolphins having nothing left to play for? ✅ What the Dolphins should do next: evaluate young players, draft position, and tank strategy ✅ Mike McDaniel hot seat : should Miami keep him or move on? ✅ The QB future: draft options, bridge QB talk, and why dead cap shouldn’t scare teams ✅ Fan reality check: we all bought the Tua jerseys… now what? If you’re a Dolphins fan, this is the full breakdown of the biggest Miami Dolphins quarterback decision in years — and what it means heading into the offseason. 🔥 COMMENT BELOW: Should the Dolphins move on from Tua permanently? 📌 SUBSCRIBE for weekly Dolphins coverage, NFL takes, and Tranquilo Sports live episodes. #MiamiDolphins #Dolphins #TuaTagovailoa #QuinnEwers #MikeMcDaniel #NFL #DolphinsNation #NFLNews #AFC #NFLDraft Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

FIU is going bowling for the first time in years and Willie does it in YEAR ONE. 😤🐾 In this Thanksgiving special, we break down how the Panthers flipped the culture, stacked statement wins, and why this run feels different for FIU fans. Then we pivot to the Fins: three-game win streak, officially “in the hunt,” and we map out the realistic playoff path — from Saints and Jets to that brutal prime-time stretch vs Steelers, Colts, Bucs, Bengals and maybe a win-and-in vs the Patriots. Pooch then jumps in for full Canes chaos: Miami’s playoff path, ACC tiebreaker madness, Notre Dame vs Miami résumé debate, SEC bias, the G5 auto-bid, and why he wants Notre Dame in the first round. All wrapped in Thanksgiving vibes: football, family, fun, and food. 🦃 If you’re rocking with the Tranquilo Sports fam, don’t forget to like, comment, subscribe & share .

Victory Tuesday hits different when it’s Buffalo. In this Tranquilo Sports Talk episode, we break down the Miami Dolphins’ statement win over the Bills, the post-Grier vibe shift, and why the locker room energy around Mike McDaniel feels real.

Victory Monday hits different. The Miami Dolphins finally put together a complete game —and we’re breaking down every angle. From “Visor Tua” cooking the No. 1 pass defense to Jordan Brooks playing out of his mind, to real scheme changes (extra OL package, Frank Smith on the sideline) that unlocked the offense and protected the football. Then we pivot to Thursday Night vs. Ravens (Lamar return watch), what Miami must do to stack wins, and how the AFC Playoff picture looks if the Fins split the next two. We also talk college football : the Miami Hurricanes vs. SMU road test (and our official watch party), quick thoughts on FSU/ACC chaos, and an FIU check-in as CSAtober wraps and Missouri State looms. Hosted by Tranquilo Sports — the most Miami way to talk football. Like, comment, and subscribe for weekly Dolphins breakdowns, NFL reactions, and CFB madness. 🐬 Dolphins Recap (From the Transcript) Vibes: “First Victory Monday of the year.” Paper-bag era on pause. Tua Tagovailoa: Confident, decisive— “Visor Tua might be that guy.” Pocket movement + off-script rope to Malik. Jordan Brooks Flowers: 10 tackles (7 solo), sack, 3 TFL , QB hit, almost a pick. Tone-setter. Defense: Best outing of the year—DL pressure (Phillips/Chop/Zach Seler), corners benefited, run fits held. Offense Tweaks: 6-OL/“611” package showed up; heavy sets → counters, HB dives, sweeps, PA. Frank Smith on the sideline (not the booth) = better communication/adjustments. Alec Ingold bullying linebackers. Run game by committee (Ali Gordon short-yardage pop; passing-game wheel TD). Penalties down, sacks minimized, 37 team rushes → on-schedule football. Special note: Clean game script: few penalties, 0 freebies , sustained drives. 🔮 TNF: Dolphins vs. Ravens (Preview) Line chatter: Miami home dogs (~+7.5); total around 50 . Keys: 1st/2nd-down wins to force Lamar into 3rd & long. Rush-lane integrity (don’t blitz recklessly; contain edges). Tackle Derrick Henry downhill; force Baltimore to be patient. Keep heavy/extra-OL looks in the mix; keep run/pass tells muddy. Explosive-play answers : Waddle, Malik, play-action off wide zone. If Miami splits Ravens/Bills: the temperature changes fast. Two at home is a gift—cash at least one. 🏈 College Football Segment Miami Hurricanes: Stanford handled; SMU road test up next. Need aggressive Beck script (no “play not to lose”). Watch Malachi “Baby Jesus” Tony every touch. ACC snapshot: volatile; every top team flirting with Ls. Watch Party: Bodega – Coral Gables | Noon kick (Sat.) – Mimosas, margaritas, hangover cure, all vibes. Pull up and say what’s up. 🔵 FIU: CSAtober Wrap Up-down first-year volatility but ceiling is real when the run is contained. Missouri State next; stop the run → win the game. Sharps leaning FIU. Paws up. ⏱️ Chapters (add exact timecodes after upload) 0:00 Victory Monday intro (Ricky Bobby energy) 2:00 “Visor Tua” + accuracy narrative 6:30 Jordan Brooks flowers & defensive tone 9:45 Offense: 6-OL package, run game by committee 12:30 Frank Smith to the sideline, why it matters 14:45 Ravens preview: Lamar plan, Henry fits, explosives 19:30 AFC picture & what 1–1 next two would mean 24:00 Canes talk: SMU scouting notes + watch party 28:30 FIU CSAtober, Missouri State look-ahead 32:00 Final picks, viewer questions & sign-off 🎯 Keywords (SEO) Miami Dolphins recap, Dolphins vs Ravens preview, Tua Tagovailoa visor, Jordan Brooks highlights, Dolphins defense analysis, Frank Smith play-calling, extra offensive lineman package, AFC playoff race, Miami Hurricanes vs SMU preview, ACC rankings, FIU football CSAtober, Missouri State preview, Tranquilo Sports podcast 📣 Call to Action Drop your takes below: Is “Visor Tua” the turning point or a one-week vibe?

We finally did it… the paper bags are on. In this week’s Tranquilo Sports Talk, we unload on the Miami Dolphins’ collapse—front office, coaching, roster core, and Tua’s post-game presser—and ask the hard question: is it time to nuke it and rebuild from the ashes?
