Dolphins coach Joe Philbin took the blame for yesterday’s performance in a 37-3 loss to the Titans. It was the team’s worst regular season loss in 15 years and worst home loss since 1968.

“I told the guys after the game that, ‘A coach’s job is to prepare players to perform well, and their job is to perform, and so that mesh didn’t get done yesterday,” he said. “It’s on me, ultimately, because I’m the head coach, and that comes with the territory and I understand that and I fully accept that responsibility. But we’ve got to do a better job.”

Philbin said he’s confident in his players’ ability to bounce back from Sunday’s game. They play Thursday night at Buffalo.

“I’m confident in the men that we have,” he said. “I believe in the character of the guys we have, that hasn’t changed, so I’m confident we will play better. And we all know, those of us that were there yesterday, we have to play better.”
