Active Roster
If you were up last night searching for coverage of the Dolphins big win in Minneapolis, chances are you wasted your time. Unless you’re down in Miami the national story-lines tend to center around a poor day for the future Hall of Famer Brett Favre and all that ails the woe-begotten Vikings. Little attention, if any has been paid to the fact that the Dolphins are quietly off to their best start since 2002. But as this team takes on the characteristics of its fiery yet unassuming head coach, the lack of notoriety may suit these 2010 Dolphins just fine.
We’ll get to some analysis in a moment, but let’s start with some facts that are flying beneath the radar of the national media.
The Dolphins are Yet to trail a Game so Far this Season
Since the game last weekend at Buffalo the Fins are yet to trail in a game this season. In both performances the team has scored first and then kept the lead throughout the entire duration of the game. While the offense is yet to truly fire on all cylinders they have done enough to give the lead to the Dolphins defense early on, and from there Mike Nolan’s unit has not relinquished a lead. In fact, yesterday the Vikings trailed the Dolphins for longer in their home opener than they had trailed all their opponents collectively in their games at home last season.
