His number 1 takeaway from the early game was the dominance of our D (totally justified, in my opinion).
1. Miami's defense has been reborn. The decision to jettison Joey Porter andJason Taylor looks great. Cameron Wake has been flying off the edge, cornerback Vontae Davis looks like a Pro Bowler at cornerback, and Karlos Dansby has been a huge difference maker at linebacker.
Defensive coordinator Mike Nolan may have been the biggest offseason acquisition. Miami won in Minnesota despite two back-breaking fumbles by Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown. It shouldn't have been as close as the 14-10 score suggested.
Later in the article, we come up again when he discusses the Vikings (and whether they should be pushing the panic button yet).
Incidentally, Vikings fans should step off the ledge. Adrian Peterson looked strong, and Favre wasn't that far off despite his three picks. They lost to two quality teams.
It feels good to be getting some credit. Let's prove him right again next week!
