I look at this a little different.
1. The Dolphins may be bad on defense STATISTICALLY, but there is a ton of talent on that team. I'm actually shocked that they didn't have more pressure against us in the passing game.
2. I get that they have given up some yards running, but Suh, Edwards and Phillips are a load in the front four.
3. We still have essentially ALL new WRs and TEs except for AJ Green. You can't discount that. Sure, the offense struggles in the red zone, but I'm not surprised since we have so many new pieces.
4. Outside of 1 big play (which really needs to stop happening), the defense was flat out dominant.
There are some areas of concern, but hopefully getting Eifert back will alleviate some of them. I still can't believe we can't run the ball better, but I do have to give credit to Bodine last night. I thought Suh would use him for a turnstile and it didn't happen.
