My favorite quote from the article regarding Tannehill: "He’s showed me that he can handle what we’re doing and he’s ready to go. It’s going to be about how fast the rest of the guys can hang with him and we’re looking to make some great strides in this camp."

I liked this one, too:
"...I’m a little disappointed to be honest with you. Baton Rouge is way hotter than it is down here. So if I hear anybody complain about weather, I’m going to be severely disappointed..."
 
(On how much the offense has been installed) – “The biggest part about what we do to get a lot of the terms in front of them and then it just becomes an adjustment from here. Everything is week to week. Once we get going in camp, we will kind of get an install going and then we’ll start game planning against the defense. The more (Defensive Coordinator) Vance (Joseph) starts tinkering with what they do, I will only do like three or four installs and then it just becomes a daily … like ‘Hey, this is what they got us with last time and here is how we’re going to beat this,’ and we will start just changing it up.”

Holy Crud. It sounds like the phins finally have strategists at HC & DC.
 
he sure says all the things I want to hear...we'll see if his actions back them up
 
Hey...there are a few things we can be pretty sure he won't be doing....

Joe Philbin often spends considerable time on his messaging. The Miami Dolphins coach told me that days before the game against Denver he was already thinking about what he would tell players after that victory. His message was going to be not to look past the coming Dec. 1 game against the New York Jets now that everyone believed the team was pretty good after going to Denver and beating Peyton Manning.

Well, the planning went for naught because the Dolphins didn't win at Denver. But the point is Philbin puts a lot of time and effort into his messaging.

Sources say he told the team to remember the San Diego game of eight weeks prior and think about the feeling everyone enjoyed after that game -- that sense of victory and great accomplishment. He told players to recall earlier great performances in the season and think about the feeling they had after those games.

"He tells us every week to look at the next game and think about going 1-0 without looking back or too far ahead," one source said. "And then the final game of the year he's asking us to remember what happened two months ago and how we felt?"

"Man, to be honest I don't even remember what he told us," another source said with a chuckle. "I can't remember any of his speeches. I remember some of my high school coach's speeches. I remember the time he cried because he was so proud to be our coach. I remember my college coach one time hugged every player on the team in the locker room before we went on the field and told us he loved us. I remember that.

"But I don't remember no [Philbin] speech or messages. I don't think that's a terrible thing. But I guess it ain't good, neither."

But a couple of players and others have told me they don't often feel like Philbin is talking from the heart. "I don't feel him at all," one said. "We have to get by on being professionals. We have to motivate ourselves. I ain't complaining. That's fine. But no, I wouldn't say he gets inside anybody, if you know what I mean. "

A couple of players have told me they think Philbin tries to compensate for, well, something, by simply talking louder. (Strange, but that's what they've told me).

I don't know how the coach can improve on this. I have no clue what he can do to connect. But I would suggest he do something to prevent having people, particularly veteran players who've been around him for a couple or three years already, tune him out.

This is a guy who Forest Gumped his way into a coaching job and was NEVER comfortable addressing or relating to players. He was a fraud who read from crib notes in locker room speeches. He was like the drivers ed teacher who got called in to coach the team when the coach got caught bangin a student.

I think we can all safely assume Gase will be better than this....

I've never been to S Fla.

But, NOLA in June is awful which is not as bad as Connecticut in Aug. Oddly, the worst I ever experienced was Hilo, Hawaii in Nov.

East of Naples FL on the edge of he Everglades and NOLA = two hottest places I've ever been, both in late July. Miami & the Keys have a seabreeze which helps, but its still damned hot.
 
He says "I mean" way too much - I find it distracting. If we don't start winning right away, I mean, watch how fast everyone, I mean, starts ripping on, you know, how much he says "I mean".
