Tyreek Hill is a fan of big nuts.

The Miami Dolphins beat up the New England Patriots 20-7 on Sunday afternoon, taking home an opening week victory in head coach Mike McDaniel’s debut. The game featured some ballsy calls by the first-year head coach and after the game Miami Dolphins star receiver Tyreek Hill had to point out just how gutsy his head coach is. Hill emphatically said:

“McDaniel’s gonna need a wheelbarrow for his nuts to carry them around.”

Watch Hill drop the funny quote below:

Tyeeek Hill is specifically referring to a decision Mike McDaniel made towards the end of the  first half.

The Miami Dolphins faced a fourth and seven from New England’s 42-yard line with 18 seconds left before the break. Rather than just punt and call it a half, instead he opted to go for it, and it turned into a 42-yard touchdown pass from Tua Tagovailoa to Jaylen Waddle. It gave the Dolphins a 17-0 lead entering halftime.

Pretty much ended the game for the Pats.

Watch the gutsy play call below:

That was a huge play and built a ton of momentum for Miami heading into half time. It was a bold decision by Mike McDaniel in his first game as an NFL head coach.

Tyreek Hill was a big fan of his new coach’s decision.

Winning cures all.
