LB Vince Biegel

(On the Bills game yesterday) – “Obviously we broke down the tape today, and I think ‘Coach Flo’ (Head Coach Brian Flores) said it best: what we did yesterday wasn’t the Miami Dolphins. I think for us, what we do is – the best thing we can do is get back to the basics and that’s having a great week of practice (and) getting back to the fundamentals – tackling, understanding our alignments and our assignments, our techniques. I think we’ve got so much talent in this locker room, and I really do think that we’ve got a lot of great young talent. When we are able to go out there and play loose, play free and play for each other, great things happen. There’s a lot of good things on film from yesterday, but there’s a lot of things that we need to correct, and I think this week is a time to address those things, correct them and move forward to the Cleveland Browns.”

(I know you guys have spoken on defense about “bend but don’t break” and it seemed liked early on, they got their yards, but you guys seemed to hold them at least to field goals. Did it wear down towards the middle of the game, end of the game?) – “I thought we were stingy at times, but I also thought we gave up some chunk plays as well. Through the passing game, through the run game, there are definitely some plays that we’ve got to get better at from a gap standpoint, speaking as a front-seven guy. I think the biggest thing for me is, I think we need to create and generate more pressure on the quarterback. Creating and generating pressure makes everybody – the back end’s life easier, the linebackers’ life easier. Overall as a defense, there’s a lot of things we can improve on, but overall, I’m still – I know the media wants to kind of say the Miami Dolphins are downhill – but listen to me, I love this team. There are a lot of great things to look forward to, and what it starts with is having a great week of practice and continuing to improve every single day, and that’s what we’re going to do.”

(So looking forward here, Browns QB Baker Mayfield and that offense – why, they haven’t been clicking like everybody thought they would, but they’re pretty dangerous. They’ve got some dangerous guys on that side, no?) – “I literally just flipped the page on the Buffalo Bills corrections. The little tape I’ve seen is – Baker Mayfield is a great quarterback. They’ve got a great young, great back with – now Kareem Hunt – Nick Chubb, Odell Beckham, Jarvis Landry. They’ve brought in a lot of great pieces to have that offense go well. They’ve also got a very good offensive line, so I think we have our work cut out for us, but I’m excited for the challenge, and I know ‘PG’ (Defensive Coordinator Patrick Graham) is going to put another great game plan in for us to thrive in and go from.”
