Improved rush defense boosts Miami Dolphins' confidence | MiamiHerald.com Football is not about tricky plays. It's about dominance. Physical and mental dominance. And the best way to dominate is to run the football. If you can run on a team, shove it up and down the field, it means you're kicking --- (that's physical) and both of you know it (that's mental). Running is power. -- From Out of Bounds, the autobiography of NFL Hall of Fame running back Jim Brown. The testosterone in the words of the greatest running back in NFL history sums up why the Dolphins' defense walks with more of a macho amble these days.
I know I didn't expect to see such an improvement in our Dline this quickly, and it is really a pleasant suprise. They bailed us out last week with the goalline stop, and are really underestimated IMO.
