The Cardinals gained just 28 yards on 15 carries overall, with a long run of 5 yards. Impressive, but an even more telling stat: all 28 yards came after contact, as the Miami front seven completely controlled the line of scrimmage, hitting Williams almost immediately whenever he carried the ball. Credit the line backing corps as Kevin Burnett, Karlos Dansby, and Koa Misi combined for 13 stops in the running game with just two missed tackles between them. The strong effort against the run forced Arizona to become one dimensional and allowed Miami to tee-off against Kolb in the passing game. This no doubt paid off, as the defense was able to pressure Kolb 19 times, earning eight sacks and forcing two picks.
