The Miami Dolphins are 75-percent of the way through their 2013 schedule. As we did at the quarter- and half-marks of the season, we now will take a look at the individual stats for several of the Dolphins, and project where they will finish once the final four games are played. Yesterday, we completed the offensive players, so now we turn to the defensive side of the ball, as well as the special teams contributors.
