Dolphins' McDaniel Talks Possible Offensive Changes: 'Everything Is on the Table'

Having lost three straight games in which they have scored a combined total of 25 points, Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel is looking to make some changes to the offense.

Speaking to reporters after Monday's 31-12 loss to the Tennessee Titans, McDaniel explained that "everything is on the table" with regard to the offense as the Dolphins try to save their season.

"There will be things that will change; hard to say what those things are," he said. "There definitely is a need for it. That [performance is] not even close to good enough. You have to open yourself to all things."

The Dolphins have used three different starting quarterbacks already this season due to injuries. Tua Tagovailoa, who is on injured reserve after suffering a concussion in Week 2, will miss at least two more games.

Skylar Thompson, who started in Week 3, was inactive on Monday night after suffering a rib injury in the 24-3 loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Sept. 22.

Tyler Huntley was signed off the Baltimore Ravens' practice squad on Sept. 16 after Tagovailoa's injury. He got the start against the Titans, finishing 14-of-22 for 96 yards passing and 40 yards with a touchdown on eight rushing attempts.

The touchdown from Huntley in the fourth quarter was the Dolphins' first time in the end zone since DeVon Achane scored in the first quarter against the Buffalo Bills on Sept. 2. They have fewer yards in the past two games combined (389) than in their Week 1 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars (400).

Achane, who averaged 7.8 yards per carry as a rookie, is down to 3.1 yards per attempt in four games this season. Tyreek Hill hasn't had more than 40 receiving yards in a game since Week 1.

There aren't a lot of options at quarterback at this point in the year. Ryan Tannehill is the best free agent on the market, but NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported on Sept. 18 that he's looking for a situation that would allow him to start for the entire season.

Per ESPN's Adam Schefter, Tagovailoa has a "real possibility" to be back when he's eligible to be activated off IR before Week 8 and he's symptom-free after his latest concussion.

The Dolphins need to do something quickly to avoid having a lost season. They are currently tied with the New England Patriots for last place in the AFC East with a 1-3 record. Those two teams will play on Sunday at Gillette Stadium.

Miami has a bye in Week 6 before taking on the Indianapolis Colts on Oct. 20.
