This year, he has played just 53.92% (220 total), and most of them have come on obvious passing downs: Team In 2014, Wake played 756 of the teams 1,029 defensive snaps, which comes out to 73.4%. It prevented him from playing and affected his performance. He spent the majority of this season dealing with a hamstring injury. What really happened is that Cameron Wake, the team's best pass rusher and one of the NFL's best, is finally healthy. Miami didn't suddenly look within themselves, reach inside, and pull out all that wasted potential. The Dolphins have sacked the quarterback 10 times, hit him 14 times, and jumped from 32nd to 24th in adjusted sack rate. The last two weeks, this has all changed. And it wasn't like they didn't get to attack some poor pass blocking offensive lines either.
They were last in sack totals and adjusted sack rate.
This was in spite of paying Ndamukong Suh, and employing Olivier Vernon, and Cameron Wake. Before visiting Tennessee, the Dolphins had one sack. Second, they also couldn't rush the passer. Pierre Garcon had 76 yards on 6 catches, Allen Robinson had 6 catches for 155 yards and 2 touchdowns, Percy Harvin had 66 yards on 6 catches, and Brandon Marshall snagged 7 catches and 128 yards. Before the Texans' game, Miami was ranked 30th in DVOA with a rate of 41.1% when covering a team's first receiver. First, they weren't been able to cover an opponent's #1 wide receiver. Miami was a mess on both sides of the ball for the first month of the season. Entering this season, it was playoffs or bust, and at 1-3, this train was stopping the first weekend of January. After a 7-9 season, consecutive 8-8 seasons, and a slew of contracts that left owner Stephen Ross naked in a barrel, the Dolphins were supposed to win now. It took five weeks for the guillotine to plummet through the neck of a NFL head coach, and the melon laying in the basket belongs to Joe Philbin.
