The defense showed up

Miami’s defense has struggled significantly this season, mostly against the run. However, their defense showed up today even with a number of starters sidelined. Jelani Jenkins, Brice McCain, Brent Grimes, and Cameron Wake (who has been out for weeks) were all absent in this 20-19 win over the Philadelphia Eagles. Ndamukong Suh is playing Suh-like football and has had at least one sack in three of the last four games. The Dolphins were down 16-3 in the first quarter, then held the Eagles to those 16 points until a field goal in the fourth quarter.
