Dolphins 28, Rams 17

Q. There were so many big plays today, it's hard to ask you about just one, so I wanted to ask you about how you affected Jared Goff. Did you feel at some point that he didn't want anything more to do with you guys, that you broke him a little bit today?

EMMANUEL OGBAH: The key to the game was just attack Jared Goff. As a defense we did a good job rushing them, rushing coverage, going head-to-head, rolling all them boys back that did a great job for us and we got a chance to get back there.

Q. You talked about everybody working together and that synergy. When you guys are at full strength like this, is this something that you guys can turn in week in and week out, a dominating performance that can help you guys move forward?

EMMANUEL OGBAH: We've just got to keep stacking good days, try to keep getting better every week. We're playing together, we love each other, we want each other to do well, we've just got to keep it going as a team.

Q. I wanted to back to the strip sack and the fumble return for Van Ginkel. Looked like you had Shaq Lawson on the same side as you. What does that do to free you up to get that free rush on Goff and get that free run at the quarterback?

EMMANUEL OGBAH: I was surprised they left me unblocked, but I just ran as fast as I can, and I just saw the ball sitting in his hand, so I just kind of went for the ball.

Q. What is it about this defensive scheme that allows y'all to frustrate offenses so much and for you to kind of get your skill set playing as well as you are?

EMMANUEL OGBAH: It starts with Boyer. He calls a great game plan every week and we just go out there and execute. That's why we're here.

Q. In terms of the coverages and rush schemes that you guys use, was the key to confusing him keeping him off balance in terms of Goff?

EMMANUEL OGBAH: Yeah, we know if we could get back there as fast as we could, we could affect him, so that was the whole goal.
