The Joe Rose Show

Hour 1 opens with reaction to Dolphins coordinators addressing the media and what was said about the passing game and Tua Tagovailoa, as Joe argues Tua is untradeable and Miami must move in a different direction at quarterback. The Dolphins also lose QB coach Nathaniel Hackett to the Cardinals, creating another key vacancy on the offensive staff. The Panthers pick up a big win over the Bruins with Brad Marchand scoring the game-winner against his former team. Plus, it’s NBA Trade Deadline Day and the Heat remain in the middle of Giannis rumors as Panthers vs. Lightning tonight highlights one of the best rivalries in the state.

Dolphins coordinators spoke to the media and had plenty to say about the passing game and Tua Tagovailoa, and Joe and Hollywood react to what stood out. Joe argues Tua is untradeable after his late-season struggles, benching, and the weight of his contract, and says Miami must go in a different direction at quarterback next season. Plus, QB coach Nathaniel Hackett leaves for the Cardinals’ OC job, meaning the Dolphins now have another key offensive vacancy to fill.

NBA Trade Deadline Day has the Heat back in the spotlight as Giannis rumors continue to swirl around Miami. Panthers vs. Lightning tonight puts one of the state’s best rivalries on display. We also take a look at some other rivalries in South Florida sports — and why Dolphins vs. Jets hasn’t felt like one in a long time.

Wednesday’s show starts with the Heat getting crushed on 06 Championship Night, leaving Spoelstra frustrated amid a lack of roster consistency, while NBA trade buzz heats up with James Harden landing in Cleveland and everyone waiting on Giannis news. The Panthers’ struggles continue, compounded by injuries and the challenge of a post-Olympic playoff push. Marlins manager Clayton McCullough joins to discuss building on last season, praising Kyle Stowers, Agustín Ramírez, Jacob Marsee, and the pitching staff, including Sandy Alcantara’s resilience and leadership. Joe and Hollywood weigh in on Super Bowl weekend, debating the best foods, grill mishaps, and key quarterback storylines, including whether Drake Maye’s historic start earns him “elite” status. The show also looks back at South Florida’s greatest championship runs, from the Heat with LeBron to the 2003 Marlins and the Panthers’ improbable 8-seed finals run.

The Heat get blown out by the Hawks on a night meant to honor the 2006 championship team, making the loss even more disappointing with franchise legends in the building. NBA trade chatter ramps up after a busy day across the league, while everyone continues to wait on Giannis Antetokounmpo news and what it could mean for Miami. Joe points out the frustrating lack of consistency on the Heat roster and shifts to the Panthers, who have a lot of work to do after the Winter Olympic break to stay in the playoff hunt. A Kyle Crabbs replay airs before the conversation turns to Super Bowl weekend, where Joe breaks down the quarterback storylines, shares why he likes Seattle, and reiterates that the Dolphins must find a new QB next season.
