Continuing on with my series of periodic looks at the most active members of Miami's special teams coverage units, I have assembled this table compiling special teams tackles and forced fumbles:

Much like it has been all season long, Jason Allen and Patrick Cobbs finished as the most active members of the special teams coverage units. Both finished the season with 16 special teams tackles after posting 8 and 4 tackles respectively last season.

If I had added in Erik Walden's 10 tackles that he recorded on Kansas City's special teams, he would have finished in second place on the team. There is little doubt in my mind that his addition to these units has made a tremendous difference.
