Jalen Ramsey gives passionate speech for Dolphins to 'be the bully'

To me the best way to show physicality is through the run game. If you want to be considered a tough team run the ball into the end zone when inside the 5 yard line. With the RBs on our team I don't think our running game can be stopped without the defense moving some guys up. When they do that it's play action time. Our offense will be fun to watch!! I guess what I'm saying is when the defense knows you're going to run the ball but is helpless to stop you is where I'd like to see us get to. The '72 Dolphin's had that going for them with Larry, Merc and Kiick. Of course, most of their oline is in the Hall Of Fame!!
Almost no lineman from that team is in th hall
 
This guy knows a thing or two about what it takes to be a part of a Super Bowl champion.

Hopefully everyone paid attention!
Wasn't he burned repeatedly and often in the Superbowl? He gave up 160 yards which is the most in his career in that game. Maybe they should pay attention to a different game.
 
It's great to hear anecdotes like what occurred with Ramsey today. I've been around long enough to know there are great "team" moments like this in camp every year by just about every team, usually they get forgotten by the end of a title-less season. Let's hope this is one that has legs and lasts by ending with a championship.

Btw, did anyone read the rest of the article? Who is this writer? He's bringing up the 1971 Dolphins as being labeled "soft"?

"Miami fighting the narrative of being a soft team isn't new. In fact, that label was stamped on Don Shula's Dolphins after they were humiliated by the Dallas Cowboys in Super Bowl VI."

Give me a break. They were 2 years from being 3-10-1. They were an up-and-comer in 1971. The question remained whether or not Shula could finally win the big one, but nothing about the Dolphins of that era was "soft".
Nothing about Zonk, and those boys were soft. No name D. And they won the majority of those games with a backup QB. BS article, comment, or what the eff they were saying.

Jim Langer and Larry Little are both in the HOF, so that's 40%. Bob Kuchenberg deserved it as much as the others but he was not that popular to be voted in, so that's 60%HOF or HOF deserving. The inline TE is in the Hall so hows that looking for better than average blocking? I'll even tell you that he's Marv Fleming. I don't think your statement holds agua. The RB room on that team was totally stellar!!
 
I don't want to forget Norm Evens, who played for the Dolphin's 1972-1973 era and is for sure in the Hall Of Fame. So Langer, Little and Evans are all in the HOF along with TE Fleming. Kuchenberg deserved it and played at a HOF level but that doesn't count. That has to be a top 4 ,5 All Time Oline imo.
