    88. It's Getting Harder to Defend Malik Willis | Nothing to Hyde

    The Miami Dolphins are 0-5, and for the first time this season, Dave Hyde and Kim Bokamper are seriously questioning whether Malik Willis is the answer at quarterback. After another frustrating loss, this time to the Cincinnati Bengals, the optimism surrounding Willis is beginning to fade. With two interceptions, missed opportunities, and another disastrous special teams performance, the Dolphins head into their bye week with more questions than answers. On this episode of Nothing to Hyde, award-winning columnist Dave Hyde and former Miami Dolphins linebacker Kim Bokamper break down what went wrong against Cincinnati and what it means for the future of the franchise. On this episode: Malik Willis: Has Miami seen enough to question whether he's its long-term quarterback? Special Teams Disaster: Another huge kickoff return exposes a problem that just won't go away. The Quarterback Dilemma: Should the Dolphins be looking at quarterbacks in the next NFL Draft? The Jeremiah Smith Debate: Is a superstar receiver worth a top draft pick when the quarterback position remains unsettled? Former Dolphins Struggling: Mike McDaniel, Tua Tagovailoa, Jaylen Waddle, and others are having their own problems elsewhere in the NFL. A Silver Lining? Why Bo believes Jeff Hafley and the coaching staff deserve credit for keeping this team fighting despite its 0-5 record. Is Malik Willis still worth building around? Or should the Dolphins already be preparing to find their next franchise quarterback? Dave and Bo aren't ready to write the final chapter on Willis, but their patience is being tested.

    87. The Dolphins Are 0-4… So Why Are Bo & Juice So Optimistic? | Fish Tank x Out to Pasture

    The Miami Dolphins are 0-4, but two Dolphins legends believe there's more reason for optimism than the record suggests. In the first-ever Out to Pasture x Fish Tank Crossover, Kim Bokamper and O.J. McDuffie join forces to break down the current state of the Miami Dolphins, the team's promising young talent, and the culture being built under head coach Jeff Hafley and general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan. Despite four straight losses, Bo and Juice see a team that's improving, competing, and developing the kind of leadership and accountability they believe has been missing in Miami. In this episode: Why the Dolphins' 0-4 record doesn't tell the whole story How Jeff Hafley and his coaching staff are changing the culture in Miami Why Jacob Rodriguez is drawing comparisons to Zach Thomas The emergence of young players like Kadyn Proctor, Chris Bell, Chris Johnson, and Ollie Gordon II. What's holding Malik Willis and his young receivers back—and why O.J. believes better chemistry will come with experience Why the Dolphins' locker room leadership looks different from previous seasons How Bo and Juice's experiences playing in the NFL shape their views on Miami's rebuild Why the upcoming matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals could present an opportunity for the Dolphins' first victory From stories about playing alongside Dan Marino to the importance of veteran leadership and building a winning culture, Bo and Juice offer the kind of insight that only two former Dolphins players can provide. Are the Dolphins finally building something sustainable, or is an 0-4 start simply too much to overlook? Let us know what YOU think in the comments!

    86. The Dolphins Keep Making the SAME Mistakes | Nothing to Hyde

    he Miami Dolphins had a chance to win in Minnesota. Instead, the same problems showed up all over again. On the latest episode of Out to Pasture Presents: Nothing to Hyde, award-winning columnist Dave Hyde and former Miami Dolphins defender Kim Bokamper break down Miami's frustrating 15–10 loss to the Vikings—and ask when a young team making mistakes becomes a team that simply isn't meeting the standard. For Dave, the fourth quarter told the story. Miami entered the final period trailing just 12–10, but the offense produced only three plays, two yards and one minute of possession, while the Vikings put together two long drives and eventually ran out the clock at the Dolphins' one-yard line. Then there are the special teams. After multiple early breakdowns against Minnesota, Dave wonders whether Miami has reached the point where accountability has to follow. Bo agrees that special teams have become a recurring problem rather than an isolated bad game. The guys also dig into an offense that scored just 10 points, the continuing penalty problem, Malik Willis' development, an offensive line struggling in pass protection, and the enormous impact of playing without De'Von Achane. Despite all of that, Bo still sees reasons for optimism—especially in young players like Ollie Gordon, Kadyn Proctor, Jacob Rodriguez and Chris Bell. Plus, Brian Flores faces his former team, sparking a spirited debate between Dave and Bo about Flores' time in Miami. Bo still believes Flores was a great Dolphins coach, while Dave argues that his coaching ability was eventually overshadowed by the interpersonal side of being a head coach. And because it's Nothing to Hyde, football eventually gives way to the important issues: Should you really have to tip when you're picking up your own pizza? Dave feels tip-shamed. Bo calls him a cheapskate. And somehow Uber drivers and Dave's Substack subscribers get dragged into the argument too. The Dolphins knew this season would be about developing young players. But four games in, the bigger question is becoming: When do the mistakes have to stop?

    85. The Dolphins May Be Better Than We Thought | Bo & Joe See REAL Progress

    The Miami Dolphins didn't beat Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs — but Kim Bokamper and Joe Rose walked away from the game feeling a whole lot better about where this young team is headed. On this episode of Out to Pasture with Bo & Joe, Bo and Joe break down what they believe was easily Miami's most encouraging performance of the young season. From improved play along the offensive and defensive lines to aggressive play-calling, a 17-play touchdown drive and rookies gaining valuable experience, the Dolphins finally showed signs that their youth movement may be starting to take shape. They also explain why they're not giving up on Malik Willis. Joe loves Willis' athleticism and big arm, while Bo looks at the development happening around the young quarterback and believes those inexperienced receivers should continue getting better as they learn the NFL game. But the progress comes with a devastating blow: De'Von Achane is lost with a torn ACL. Bo and Joe discuss what losing arguably Miami's most explosive offensive weapon means, why Achane had become so important as a leader, and how Ollie Gordon II, Jaylen Wright and Malik Washington could be asked to fill the enormous void. Plus: the controversial roughing call on Chop Robinson, the offensive line's best performance of the season, Ollie Gordon's expanding role and a trip to Minnesota where former Dolphins coach Brian Flores — and former Dolphin Andrew Van Ginkel — will be waiting.

    84. The Dolphins FINALLY Showed Us Something | Nothing to Hyde

    The Miami Dolphins are 0-3. But for the first time this season, Dave Hyde and Kim Bokamper walked away from a loss feeling encouraged. On the latest episode of Out to Pasture Presents: Nothing to Hyde, award-winning columnist Dave Hyde and former Miami Dolphins defender Kim Bokamper break down Miami's loss to Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs—and explain why the final score doesn't tell the entire story. The word of the week? Progress. The Dolphins were still in the game in the fourth quarter against one of the NFL's top teams. Malik Willis made plays with both his arm and his legs. Rookie Jacob Rodriguez came up with an interception. Chris Bell delivered a 44-yard reception. And even after De'Von Achane left the game just five plays into the afternoon, Miami put together an impressive 92-yard opening drive. But there's still plenty to clean up. Dave and Bo dig into the penalties that continue to hurt Miami at the worst possible times—including a penalty that wiped out a sack and another that erased a touchdown. They also debate Chop Robinson's controversial hit on Patrick Mahomes and whether NFL defenders are being put in an impossible position when trying to pressure quarterbacks. Then comes potentially the biggest concern of all: De'Von Achane's injury. Bo calls it devastating for a Dolphins offense that could least afford to lose its most proven playmaker. What does Achane's absence mean for Malik Willis and an offense already relying heavily on rookies and unproven talent? And with Brian Flores coming up next, Bo and Dave revisit Flores' complicated tenure as Dolphins head coach. Bo explains why he remains firmly in Flores' corner, while Dave offers his perspective on why Flores was a talented coach brought into an organization whose circumstances made conflict almost inevitable. Plus, Dave updates his investigation into Don Shula's two missing victories, Bo tells a hilarious story about how the Dolphins avoided paying his All-Rookie bonus, and the guys debate which famous group of brothers they'd most want to hang out with: the Tkachuks, Kelces, Mannings, Blackwoods—or the Hanson Brothers from Slap Shot. The Dolphins didn't get the win. But did we finally see the first signs that this young team is starting to become something?

    83. The Dolphins Have a BIG Problem — And It’s Not Malik Willis

    The Miami Dolphins showed some encouraging signs against the San Francisco 49ers — and then the third quarter happened. On this episode of Out to Pasture with Bo & Joe, Kim Bokamper and Joe Rose break down what went wrong in San Francisco and why the Dolphins’ problems go well beyond quarterback Malik Willis. Bo and Joe dig into a defense that has yet to record a sack, the lack of pressure on opposing quarterbacks, costly coverage breakdowns, pass-protection issues, special-teams mistakes and the challenges that come with relying on one of the NFL’s youngest rosters. They also discuss why Willis needs more help around him before anyone can truly determine whether he’s the Dolphins’ long-term answer at quarterback. And with Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs coming to Miami for the Dolphins’ home opener, things aren’t getting any easier. What does Bo want to see next? Young players improving, fewer mental mistakes and a team that begins turning effort into execution. Plus, Bo unveils his new solution for fixing the Dolphins’ special teams: “Balls of Fury.” You’ll have to hear this one for yourself. Out to Pasture with Bo & Joe features former Miami Dolphins linebacker Kim Bokamper and longtime Dolphins broadcaster Joe Rose talking football, life and everything in between.

    82. Can This Dolphins Team Actually Get Better? | Nothing to Hyde

    Two games into the season, the Miami Dolphins are 0-2. But for Dave Hyde and Kim Bokamper, the biggest question isn't simply when will they win? It's can this team actually get better? On the latest episode of Out to Pasture Presents: Nothing to Hyde, award-winning columnist Dave Hyde and former Miami Dolphins defender Kim Bokamper examine where this extremely young Dolphins team stands after its loss to the San Francisco 49ers—and whether there are legitimate reasons to believe things can improve as the season goes along. For one half against San Francisco, there were encouraging signs. Miami established the run with De'Von Achane, controlled the football and gave Malik Willis opportunities to make plays. Then the second half arrived, the secondary broke down, Nick Bosa began wreaking havoc, and the game quickly got away from Miami. Bo points to the challenge facing a roster filled with rookies and young players who are learning on the fly—while Jeff Hafley and an inexperienced coaching staff are learning right along with them. Dave looks back at the 2019 Dolphins, who were awful early before steadily improving and somehow finishing with five wins. Can this group make the same kind of progress, or are the circumstances simply too different? Dave and Bo also dig into some of Miami's biggest concerns through two games: the lack of a consistent pass rush, instability along the defensive front, a young secondary being asked to do too much and an offensive line that had its hands full with Nick Bosa. And with Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs coming next, those problems aren't about to get any easier. Then there's Malik Willis. Dave and Bo agree that it's far too early to make a final judgment on Miami's quarterback. Willis has shown flashes, his athleticism has allowed him to create plays under pressure, and he's operating with an inexperienced group around him. But by the end of this season, Miami needs an answer to perhaps its biggest question: Do the Dolphins have their quarterback of the future? And because this is Nothing to Hyde, football is only part of the conversation. Bo unveils his latest NFL press box food grade, and San Francisco comes to play: chicken, crispy fries, three kinds of hot dogs, an omelet station and enough free candy for Bo to start stuffing his backpack. The 49ers earn an 85, taking over the top spot from Las Vegas. The Dolphins may be 0-2, but this season was always going to be about more than the standings. Now the question is whether Dave and Bo can start seeing the progress that tells us Miami is actually building toward something.
