For the last four years, fans have been clamoring for their head coach to show some emotion. Many who cringed at the site of former head coach Tony Sparano doing his exaggerated fist bump after a field goal would have done cartwheels if Joe Philbin had showed a smidgen of enthusiasm. If Dan Campbell’s first presser was indicative whats to come, then enthusiasm will be in abundance on the side lines, at lead for the next 12 games.
Joe Philbin often talked about trusting his coaches, their plan, fundamentals,simplifying this and tweaking that. While that all came from a good place and no doubt he was doing the best he could, he never could seem to motivate his players.
