A few interesting team statistics that I havent seen too many people talking about: 1) The Dolphins are allowing...
...the 10th most QB hits in the NFL. For all this talk about improved OL play, that's still a concern.2) The Dolphins are 12th in the NFL in converting 3rd downs (41%). That's good but suggests there's room for improvement.
3) On the flip side, the Dolphins are an ELITE 3rd down defense - holding opponents to just a 26% success rate on 3rd down. That's #2 in the NFL and just percentage points below the Texans for #1.
4) All this talk of the Dolphins new up-tempo offense does show in the stats. The Dolphins have run 348 plays from scrimmage - the 4th most in the NFL despite being just 12th in time of possession.

I think he picked out some reallly interesting stats.
1) I really liked Tannehill in this game (as did Sherman), and think it was his best. I also think, imho, that he masked some of the OLs shortcomings.
2) Better stat than I would have expected
3) Our D really has been solid. I am worried though that Coyle had us well prepped for Cincy and am worried about our DBs and TE coverage. Props to Nolan Carrol and Jimmy Wilson, but I want to see it in a few more games.
4) I wonder who the other three teams are...
