DAVIE, Fla. – There are various ways to describe new Miami Dolphins Pro Bowl defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh after one week of training camp. He has been dominant, disruptive and a force on Miami’s defensive line.
However, Dolphins coaches recently came up with a new nickname for Suh that they use internally.
“His new name right now is ‘Chief’ around here, so you know that,” Miami defensive coordinator Kevin Coyle explained. “He’s the big chief, kind of like Robert Parrish was back with the Celtics back in the day. And he’s a guy that is the leader of the tribe and we’re real fortunate to have him. He doesn’t say a whole lot all of the time, but when he does, you listen.”
The addition of Suh already has added confidence throughout the entire Dolphins organization.
Players on defense are more confident now that they have one of NFL’s top defensive players on their side. Coaches believe they can take more chances and do more now that Suh is manning the middle and constantly attracting double-teams. Even Dolphins owner Stephen Ross cozied up with his $114 million investment after the first training camp practice.

I love the "he doesn't say a whole lot but when he does, you listen" quote. Anyone who knows people like that, know how impactful their words are.

**** this is gonna be a fun year
 
he's going to be considered one of the best dolphins signing all time if this year starts a string of deep playoff runs and team accomplishment
 
Suh reminds me of General George S. Patton. Patton was absolutely fearless, but his actions often got him in trouble with the Big Bosses. When it came time to do battle, there was nobody else you wanted on your side. Every player on our defense will benefit from Suh being in there, and he will inspire every player on the team to step it up. So yes, he is the Big Chief.
 
It would be impacted more if we signed Mathis to fortify the offensive line to protect T-Hill.
 
I think the "Suhnami" moniker is better and does him more justice, considering what he brings to the defense.
