Getting down to biz should entail Joe Philbin keeping a better pulse of his team, and ensuring the appropriate atmosphere.
Since Joe Philbin has now done a turnabout and is speaking, I take it someone in the organization agrees with me about this being part of his duty.
Putting aside the fact that Kevin O'Neill was implicated in the Wells Report, I was listening to Pat Kirwin the other day and he said when he was in the front office he talked to the head trainer daily to find out what was going with his players. Hopefully this will happen with Philbin and whoever the new head trainer is.
That is an excellent practice. It MAY have actually been happening in Miami, or it may not. I wouldn't expect to find it in the Wells report, if it was. The Wells report seemed like it was crafted to indemnify the highest people in the Dolphins organization. Either way it's the sort of thing that a head coach who has been a head coach before (at some level, any level really) would probably already know to do. However Philbin had never been in charge of anything prior to taking this job.
I disagree, I think we need some closure and some new hope that this guy knows can display some leadership.
