Give it up for these guys. They played phenominal today and we would have been screwed without their play in the trenches. Solai with the huge tackle and force fumble on greene that sprung taylor and starks with the huge sack on sanchez on the last drive. these guys were all over the ball carriers today and they deserve some love. Great job big men!
Yeah Starks with a Key sack in the redzone in the fourrth quarter leading the tean with Tackles soliai with 7 tackles a FF that led to a TD Great Job nobody expected this out of any of them especially soliai
Starks led all Miami D-linemen in metrics last year with an incredible 27% win rate (nobody else on the d-line was above 14%). To put that in perspective, Andy Alleman was one of the league's worst offensive guards last year at a very pathetic 73% win rate (the worst O-lineman on the team next to Alleman was Samson Satele's terrible 79% metric score last year)... So Randy Starks was making opposing linemen look like the awful 2008 version of Andy freakin Alleman with his team worst score. Starks is really good., I am very happy to see Soliai progressing nicely as well.
If we're going to give Paul his due, then please spell his last name right, and say his whole name. Paul "Mother------'" Soliai.
Our dline has been one of the most consistent contributors on this team for the past two season. Seeing Soliai playing this well could contribute to us addressing another position on defense before NT. That is huge for us!
Not to be a drag, but let's keep in mind Big Paul lost a portion of his family in the American Somoa Tsunami, his level of play is remarkable in view of that tragedy.
