A couple of days ago, the Miami Herald’s Barry Jackson wrote a story about how the Miami Dolphins are going to shake up their defense, using multiple defensive backs, fewer defensive linemen, and rotate linebackers. It came just as I was preparing to write this article. I waited to put this together, in part so it did not seem as though I was simply copying what he had published and in part to see if what he wrote changed what I was thinking.
It really did not. The simple fact remains - the Dolphins love safeties.
