Miami Dolphins head coach Joe Philbin must have cooling packs in his back. That's the only way to explain how he's been able to withstand the heat of the hot seat over the past year-and-a-half since the locker-room scandal of Jonathan Martin and Richie Incognito. Even without the scandal of 2013, his team failed to get into the playoffs or even go over the .500 hump in 2014, as it has failed to do so in each of Philbin's years as the head coach.
The 2015 season brings a new look to the Dolphins by way of a mass salary-cap exodus and a couple of well-timed trades, but another big opportunity is waiting around the corner: the 2015 NFL draft.
