Channing Tindall could be the Miami Dolphins answer to Josh Allen

Interesting observation by Brian Miller of phinphanatic.com. I have to admit it does make sense and would be awesome if it worked out like this. Josh Allen has killed us with his running abilities and the AFC has plenty more who could as well.

Tindall is quick. He is fast to the point of contact, he can hit hard, and he can tackle consistently. He also has room to grow but if I am Josh Boyer and the Miami Dolphins defensive coaches, I’m using Tindall to shadow opposing quarterbacks or the top running backs.

The speed at which Tindall plays is impressive and has been the talking point all weekend long. The Dolphins made a play to get better at stopping the run and perhaps, stopping the talented QBs that are now all over the AFC.

I've watched a lot of film on him, he's the perfect spy linebacker.  His cons are he's raw in coverage, but has the speed to be a good cover linebacker with coaching, and he sometimes overcommits.  I'd rather have a guy flying around the field like him though.

This team definitely could use another Zach Thomas.

Most NFL QB's stop running so much after a few years in the NFL, and Allen is getting there.  But it certainly does seem to be more of a characteristic of new young QB's to run the ball.  Maybe coaches and coordinators are letting them do that more, moving them to a more replaceable "part" unless they are proven to be great.
