Joe Philbin is an impressive man who will build a legacy in Miami that will last a long time. That's the impression that I came away with after looking at his introductory press conference.
I agree, except for his height, you would walk straight past him without paying him much attention - looks like some regular, older, bald guy. But once he opened his mouth, I couldn't help but be impressed; first by the man and second by his football vision. It's easy to understand why Ross chose him as our newHC.
I expect Philbin to have a gigantic impact on the Miami Dolphins organization starting at the top with the owner Mr. Ross and the GM Jeff Ireland. I think his humility, character and vision will make Ross a better owner and certainly make Ireland, who is a good scout, a much better GM. And the impact of that, coupled with his handpicked staff, will make the franchise stronger to the core and sets them up for sustained success.
I even expect Philbin's impact to extend to members of the media who currently cover the Dolphins. Many of these reporters come across and immature and lacking true football perspective in commenting on football decisions - I see Philbin, with the wisdom of his answers, teaching these fellas a thing or two along the way.
Having been a Fins fan for decades and having listened to and followed our coaches from Shula, JJ, Wanny, Saban, Cameron, Sparano... my impression of Philbin is that he has things figured out, he knows who he is, has a vision for what he wants and has a plan as to how he will get there.
Now ultimately, the results will determine if all of this is true, but I can say that I am very proud to call Joe Philbin "Head Coach of the Miami Dolphins".
