Philbin earns praise during tumultuous season - AP

''I never had to endure what he's had to endure with the distractions that we had,'' Sherman said. ''You have no idea what a task that is to keep a team together and not splinter amid the adversity. I have to give Joe Philbin tremendous credit for the focus that he demanded from all of us to stay on task. We wouldn't be in this position if he wasn't able to pull us all together, coaches and players alike."

''I think the media blew a lot of that out of proportion - all the hype and everything,'' Belichick said. ''But that didn't derail them in any way. They've been on track. If you watch them play on film, you wouldn't have any sense that whatever else has been in the media has affected the team. They've just gone out there and played very, very competitively every week.''

Hope it makes them stronger as a unit. Such bs trying to make a story out of nothing.

I am glad some are smart enough to remove foot from mouth - time changes many perspectives.

Fire Joe Philbin? Think again.

'Joe Philbin should be fired'
Back in Week 10 some idiot wrote that Joe Philbin should be fired. Not so much for what the Dolphins were doing on the field, but because of the afterschool-special off-field drama that saw Jonathan Martin leave the team amid allegations that he was bullied and that Richie Incognito was the ringleader, and that Philbin seemed to have no idea what was going with his players.

Now, the Dolphins are coming off impressive back-to-back wins against the Steelers and the Patriots, and look every bit like a legit playoff team with a young franchise quarterback leading the way. And much of the credit for keeping this group focused goes to Philbin, who comes off about as interesting as a pile of rocks but clearly knows to motivate his players.

So, yeah, we owe you an apology, Joe.

Philbin's done a masterful job under tough circumstances, and if Miami makes it to the postseason he should be in the conversation for coach of the year.
