The Dolphins clinched a playoff berth Sunday with their 22-20 win over the Dallas Cowboys.
“I’m proud for this team because regardless of what people say. you have to get to a mode where you are solely worried about doing your job and being responsible for that with your teammates,” McDaniel said after the game. “I thought this was a big win for this team.”
In doing so, McDaniel, in his first two seasons helming the Fins, has become the franchise’s first head coach since Dave Wannstedt in 2000-2001 to lead the club to repeat postseason appearances.
