Despite the team’s efforts to rebuild the trenches on the offensive and defensive lines this past offseason, Miami has struggled at the line of scrimmage, getting bullied in the trenches most of the season with a few exceptions.
Seven of Miami’s opponents have rushed for more than 100 yards, and the Dolphins were allowing a league worst 4.7 yards per carry coming into Sunday’s game against the Denver Broncos.
The offensive line has struggled opening up running lanes, but the team’s pass protection had been solid right until the sack fest the Broncos delivered in Sunday’s 20-13 win over Miami, which got dominated at the line of scrimmage.
