Detroit was number one against the run, but most rushing yards that Detroit gave up was right over Suh. Detroit also seemed to have a bigger, more physical D line than you guys do (again, mainly going off of what I read, have not followed the Dolphins in preseason). It still seems that your D line is built to pass rush, not necessarily to stop the run. Im not saying we are going nuts on the run, but im not convinced you can make a blanket statement about stopping the run with Suh and 3 pass rushers. If you guys get the lead and force teams to pass against you, I see the best D line in the league comment. But thats not saying that teams cant run the ball against it.
