Joe Philbin botched this. The Miami Dolphins head coach publicly mishandled the most important position on the field this week, undermining his starting quarterback and needlessly causing a distraction for his team. This is a big deal because it involves his leadership and judgment, and calls into question both.

NFL coaches get fired for their won-lost record first and Philbin — 16-19 into his third Miami season — is on shaky ground by that measure alone, likely needing to make the playoffs for the first time to save his job. Other factors are weighed, too, though, and this one will sit ugly on the wrong side of Philbin’s ledger.

“Steve doesn’t get it,” a club source who is a friend of owner Stephen Ross told me Thursday. “He doesn’t like it. He’s shaking his head. He is not happy right now.”
(I should say this is the same source who in 2011 told me coach Tony Sparano’s job was in peril just weeks before Ross made an in-season coaching change).

Well you know Marino and Taylor had Ross's ear also and we know what they thought.
 
Yes, as if our New York City based reclusive billionaire team owner is rushing to communicate his disatisfaction with Greg Cote's "sources".
This is just a BS muck raking article intended to fuel speculation on Joe Philbin's future.

Nah, the fact that this was leaked to Cote tells me that Joe Philbin is going to be booking his own transatlantic flight home if the team somehow loses to the stink-ass Raiders.
 
Just like I said last night on here. Ross is a leader of a very large business and he is also mystified of how out of touch and how poor a leader this coach is. You notice Philbin said he took responsibility for the mess he created but fell short of a real apology. I did hear he apologized to the team, but I say too little too late because the last thing this team needs right now is this kind of distraction. You can't help thinking he wants Thill to take the heat as a CYA for himself. Dead man walking.
 
So "Steve" doesn't like it and is shaking his head..... does this mean that all of a sudden he is going to change and turn our team around. It's his crappy choices that got us here in the first place. Look in the mirror "Steve" if you want to see the problem with our Miami Dolphins.
 
Steve…TRUST Marino. TRUST JT. TRUST Garfinkel.

Find a face that can lead this storied franchise back to relevance.

Joe Philbin has nobody to blame, but himself for his poor tenure.

It will be ironic this week if the QB that he embarrassed all week, saves his ass Sunday.

The team will probably play lights out and lose anyway. Tannehill will throw for 400 yards. That is Miami Dolphins football.
 
Every fiber of my being is opposite of Joe when it comes to being the leader of this team.

Nope. Ugly win that will keep the debate boiling for two weeks.
