Joe Biden doesn't really have an enthusiasm problem. That's sort of a bullshit media narrative that isn't backed up by the data.

But he has something potentially worse: an Iowa problem.

Nationally, Biden has as much enthusiastic support as any other candidate. But in Iowa, he doesn't. He (and Bernie) are lapped by Warren, and to a lesser extent Harris and Buttigieg.
Iowa is a poor state for Biden demographically. Its caucus electorate is quite liberal and very white, and those aren't his strengths. So it isn't necessarily a canary in the coal mine. But it won't be easy for him to start out his campaign with a win there.
