I liked that he pointed it out after the conference appeared to be done and he did seem very genuine and it does help and matter.
Now , one can say the fans haven't had a lot of opportunity or reasons to be passionate and vociferous and that the fan base is not the same as in most cities , but regardless , atmosphere , noise , excitement help the home team and we have not had that as an advantage. We need to claim that and I am really pleased to see Coyle step up and identify this. -

I think booing should be reserved for coaching decisions or players who have proven themselves *******s. It doesn't quite make sense to me as negative reinforcement for bad play.

I saw that and thought it was pretty cool. As long as they are competitive in the next game (and especially if they win), that building is going to be rocking next Thursday night.

Agree on the Patriots part...typical entitled Boston/New York fans. -
I think that booing is fine. I'm going to passionate, in both directions. If the team is playing like crap, I'm going to voice my opinion. I'm never going to cuss or call out an individual player at the game, but boo? You bet.

I think Philbin could have a meeting with the players and have them start to ask the fans to give them help, to get there earlier, to stand on defense, and scream as loud as they can..really go there. -
And as someone who likely will never see another game in Miami, its not my place either.djphinfan likes this. -

I've been to louder games. We need to finish strong and make those December games mean something. We want it to be hell on Earth for the Bills, Ravens, Vikes, and Jets.

How often does the team get out and do public appearances? I would think that a good way to generate good will and enthusiasm in the team is to give the people of Miami a personal connection to the players. Like, once a week, have a couple players show up at a local playground and play catch with the guys (I know McCain is sort of doing this on his own). Go to a high school football game and pass out vouchers for food at the stadium. Just meet and greets where people can connect with the players. People are less likely to boo, and more likely to rabidly support their team when they have personal connections.
