After four weeks in the NFL, Miami's yard per attempt average is in the top 10. They are #8, to be exact, at an average of 4.46 YPA. I know that Miami has had a few big runs, esp. the two by Chambers. It's a positive sign. Miami's O-Line doesn't open up great holes on every play, but they're not doing as poorly as some might think.....

On the other hand, Miami's run D is #1 in the NFL at 2.86 YPA. That's AWESOME! Keep on truckin', Tractor!
 
Good stat... The offense has been clicking during the wins, but has been bad during the jets. If they can keep it clicking we'll roll this AFC east.
 
Ya I think our O-line is doing better not because people are saying there doing better it's because people our not complaining as much about them so you know there improving.
 
That is awesome news. I heard our run D was doing well, but didn't realize it was number #1. Hopefully it will maintain that #1 ranking after the bills game. As our O-Line improves I can't help but believe our status will increase on the offensive side of the ball as well. It would be great to get into the top 5. And that is before Ricky comes back.

HOLD UP THERE, its not the #1 Rushing D, just per attempt. I think we're number 3 or 4 against the run.
 
I still said the OL are not consistent run blockers at this point and I'm hoping these 2 weeks have improved them technique wise and it shows up this game. Man do we need them to run block this game. btw, and you're right, the chambers and Brown long runs are the only thing that's got our avg up.

What about Chambers catch and Booker's catch? What about Brown's 8 yard runs? What about Morris's 8 yard runs?

Well with just the RBs stats its a decent 3.9 YPA...

Not bad in my book...
 
Better than anything we posted during all those winning seasons when Dan was at the helm.
