The Facts:

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The rookie head coach said he was excited to reveal the new direction of the organization on the show, according to NFL Network's Jeff Darlington, who was on the scene in Davie, Fla. Philbin called it a "football decision" but it's hard not to see the move as a marketing decision. Owner Stephen Ross has worked hard to sell his team to the Miami market through celebrity minority owners and other avenues. Now he'll turn his players into television stars, and we couldn't be happier that he did. As NFL.com's Gregg Rosenthal notes, Miami has a lot of compelling aspects to follow. The three-way quarterback battle provides drama. Reggie Bush provides some star power. Philbin, a first time head coach, will install new schemes on both sides of the ball for the entire country to see. We'll certainly be watching.
