MIAMI GARDENS Fla. -- Miami Dolphins guard Dallas Thomas remembered what interim head coach Dan Campbell told him in practice.
Everything you do, Campbell said, make sure you finish in winning position.
Campbell sent that stern message to Thomas and the offensive line last week. He wanted the much-maligned group to dominate the team's talented defensive line, led by Pro Bowlers Ndamukong Suh and Cameron Wake. That made for some intense practices, according to players.
Both sides of the ball carried that intensity into Sunday's 44-26 victory over the Houston Texans.
