I would say that the Phins have more TALENT than any other Defense hands down. But Tampa is still the best D in the game. They bring fire and heart on all downs. The Phins get a lead and try to not to lose it. When Tampa gets a lead their D tries to score AGAIN. They just have some much ANGER when they are on the FIELD. Man sometimes I look at the Phins and see brittle great players after watching a Bucs game. I mean man when the Bucs D is on the field you just feel a big hit coming on EVERY DOWN. The Phins use speed and talent. The Bucs use FORCE & Speed with the talent. But again there is not a D in the League that offers more talent overall than the Phins D.
Sam * Pat * Zach * Jason * Brock * Tim * Junior
vs.
Brooks * Lynch * Sapp * Rice * Barber * Kelly
Miami is the new paper champions....lol
I just want to see some pissed off Phins on the field this year. If Tampa's D gives up 5 yards. They look like they are going to kill someone. If Miami's D gives up 5 yards they look like they are ready for the next play. Tampa's D lights a fire and the O catches on. Miami's just needs to be more intense on the field.

TB lost a few guys but got Rudd.
We have lost no one (we were #3 last year) AND added Seau, Zgonia and Buckely. We have definetly approved, and if we attain Sammy Knight then we'll definetly be #1 on paper before the season starts.
