In this episode, we explore:

• The Green Bay Connection: We trace the roots of this hire. How did Jon-Eric Sullivan’s 22 years in the Packers' front office and Jeff Hafley’s defensive turnaround in Green Bay convince Stephen Ross to "copy-paste" the Packer Way into Miami?

• The Obstacles (The $100M Problem): The honeymoon ends when the spreadsheets open. We look at the brutal math facing Sullivan:

  • The Tua Conundrum: With Tua Tagovailoa benched at the end of 2025 and carrying a massive cap hit, we analyze the "Russell Wilson-style" dead money hit Miami might have to swallow to move on.

  • The Salary Cap "Nuke": Miami is currently over the cap with aging stars and injured veterans. We discuss the potential release of Tyreek Hill (following his 2025 knee injury) and how Sullivan plans to rebuild the trenches with limited "spendable" cash.

    
    

• Success or Skepticism? I ask the tough question: Is this the right move? Ross has a history of hiring "first-time" guys who flame out. I debate whether Hafley’s defensive mind and Sullivan’s scouting pedigree are enough to fix a franchise that hasn't won a playoff game in a quarter-century, or if this is just another "reset" that will lead to another search in three years or less?
