On today's DolphinsTalk.com Daily Podcast we talk about how NFL analyst Chris Simms has been saying a lot of negative things about Tua Tagovailoa of late in comparing him to Patriots new quarterback Jarret Stidham. While believing Stidham is better than Tua is debatable and nothing to get worked up over, Simms has taken it over the top in his criticism of Tua. We talk about it and why Dolphins fans shouldn't get worked up over his comments. We also open up the listener mailbag and answer questions that you the listeners have sent in. We will be doing a lot of Mailbag shows moving forward before training camp starts so be sure to send your questions to DolphinsTalk1977@gmail.com

On today's DolphinsTalk.com Daily Podcast we talk about the latest Dolphins draft pick who signed his contract with the team over the weekend, Tua's status in 2020, and Larry Warford. We talk about the speculation that Miami may have an interest in the recently released offensive guard Larry Warford. Should Miami be interested? Will they be interested? Those are two very different questions and we dive into that topic. We close out the show talking about Tua and what is his status with the Dolphins in 2020.? Will he be relegated to  "sit and learn" no matter how healthy he is or no matter how well he plays in training camp? Or will he be given a fair chance to compete for the starting quarterback job and if he outperforms Fitzpatrick and Rosen be given the starting quarterback job Week one.  There are some strong thoughts on this from both sides and I jump into it and break it down.

In 2018 author Carlo DeVito put out the book,  Don Shula: A Biography of the Winningest Coach in NFL History, where he wrote about the life of the Miami Dolphins, legendary head coach. When news of Shula's passing broke earlier today I reached out to Carlo DeVito to have him join me on a very special DolphinsTalk.com Podcast as we remember the life and times of the great Dolphins coach. On this podcast, you will hear about how Don Shula almost became a priest and had a totally different life outside of football altogether, how when he coached Johnny Unitas with the Baltimore Colts he and Unitas didn't get along and for 35 years+ years Unitas cursed Shula's name and even wished him ill will up until the day he died, and about Shula leaving the Colts to come to the upstart Miami Dolphins. We also talk about the hot and cold relationship Shula had with Dolphins owner Joe Robbie, how he changed his coaching style in the 80's when he got Marino and told the NFL Competition Committee that the league needed to make the game more exciting, and how the death of his first wife Dorothy really keep Shula going and coaching the final few years of his career. We also dive into the story of Shula's final year coaching the Dolphins and was he pushed out by Wayne Huizenga and Jimmy Johnson? Hear some never before told stories about the legendary coach as we remember a remarkable man, father, husband, and football coach!

The Dolphins open quarterback competition in 2020 is the main topic on today's DolphinsTalk.com Daily Podcast with Tom and Mike. With Ryan Fitzpatrick being the clubhouse leader to start Week 1, do not count out Tua just yet, and yes Josh Rosen as well to potentially beat Fitz out in training camp. The Dolphins open QB competition is a big story this offseason and will be all summer in training camp and the preseason. And if Tua or Rosen outplay Fitzpatrick in training camp and the preseason, then head coach Brian Flores will have a difficult decision to make heading into the season. Tua is the future and if he is healthy and playing well in camp, why wait to get him on the field? Rosen is going into year 3 and maybe this is the offensive system he shines in and if it is and he is outplaying Fitzpatrick and Tua in the summer shouldn't he get a fair shot to play? We talk about all 3 guys, go over various scenarios and situations that could arise this summer, and tell you why this will be the position battle to watch this summer in 2020. We also talk about the Dolphins moving on from Taco Charlton and Charles Harris late last week and share our thoughts on those two transactions.

On today's DolphinsTalk.com Daily Podcast Steven talks about whether Tua should sit for the entire 2020 season and redshirt or should he see playing time or even compete during training camp for the starting job? Steven also looks back at last weekend's draft and looks at the common traits the Dolphins drafted amongst all of the players they selected. Also, Steve talks about Malcolm Perry the Dolphins 7th round draft pick and if he could be a hidden gem for this Dolphins team.
