Chris Perkins: Dolphins assistant coaches are usually good, and the trend continues in 2025
Briefly

Despite a significant number of former Miami Dolphins assistants achieving success in other NFL roles, the team has not won a playoff game since 2000. This includes eight defensive coordinators and six head coaches currently in the league. Noteworthy statistics since 2022 show the Dolphins with top offensive and defensive rankings, indicating a strong potential for success. The current coaching staff, led by Coach Mike McDaniel, continues to evolve, with new members joining to build on this legacy of talent and productivity.
Eight of the NFL's 32 defensive coordinators, including Philadelphia's Vic Fangio, who recently won a Super Bowl, have ties to the Dolphins. This indicates a strong pipeline of coaching talent from Miami.
Statistically, the Dolphins have had stellar performances with the No. 1 and 6 offenses, and No. 4 and 10 defenses, showcasing their potential and the effectiveness of past coaching staff.
Among those on the roll call for former Dolphins assistants are Detroit coach Dan Campbell, Cincinnati coach Zac Taylor, and others, highlighting the impressive coaching development within the organization.
'I think we have truly some future stars in the coaching profession on the staff,' said linebackers coach Joe Barry, emphasizing the strong potential and talent present in their current coaching lineup.
