The Miami Dolphins have hired Jeff Hafley as head coach and signed Malik Willis as quarterback this offseason. Following significant changes to their roster and coaching staff, CBS Sports ranks Hafley and Willis as the ninth-best new coach-quarterback duo in the NFL. While both have prior experience with the Green Bay Packers, there are concerns about their ability to succeed in Miami, particularly due to the lack of supporting talent and differing coaching styles. Other lower-ranked duos include Jacoby Brissett with Mike Lafleur in Arizona and Deshaun Watson with Todd Monken in Cleveland.
