Though Joe Philbin hasn’t fired any coaches, he also has declined to say that all of his assistants will be asked back. Once Philbin is comfortable saying that Kevin Coyle is definitely going to return, the Dolphins are expected to convey that publicly. To this point, that hasn’t happened. According to multiple reports, defensive line coach Kacy Rodgers is the top candidate to join new Jets coach Todd Bowles as defensive coordinator.

### Though every Dolphins receiver beyond Jarvis Landry stands at risk, there’s no indication that any is asking to leave at the moment.

Rishard Matthews’ former agent conveyed to Dolphins management in August that Matthews preferred to be sent somewhere where he would play more than he would here, but the matter was quickly dropped when Dennis Hickey said that wasn’t going to happen. And Matthews’ new agent hasn’t made that request.

And though the Dolphins haven’t committed to keeping Mike Wallace, Wallace told me in December that he very much likes playing here and the lack of deep balls hasn’t made his re-assess that.

It's going to be hard to replace Kacy Rodgers. I'm glad for him though, he deserves a chance to run his own defense.

Looks like the coaching staff from Denver is free game although some could follow Del Rio to Oakland.
 
I think promoting Rogers to DC and firing Coyle would be a good move. On the other hand, Coyle has proven that when we're healthy we can be a top defense. Though, whether or not that has to do with the either the talent or coaching will have to be something decided by Philbin and the FO.

My issue with Coyle is that he never made the in-game adjustments to counter opposing offenses.
 
Of course he hasn't decided. He has no balls. He is such a weak leader he would rather wait around until somebody else makes the decision or the problem goes away on its own.
 
of couse Wallace wants to stay here. no other team is dumb enough to pay him what we do. philbin has zero testicular fortitude. if you want to keep your job past next year, you better upgrade your dc.
 
This is a good thing imo. He's probably trying to see who will be avaliable I think it leaves more of a chance he fires Coyle or he is waiting for Coyle to leave

Im not concerned with Philbin making any changes. I say wait till we fire him next year. A new DC is not going to magically make Philbin a good coach.
