Miami Dolphins defensive coordinator Vic Fangio's past criticisms of the Baltimore Ravens have resurfaced ahead of their upcoming game. Fangio previously faced acrimony with Ravens' head coach John Harbaugh during his time as a head coach in Denver. Fangio clarified that his strong comments were meant to protect upset players. The timing of his agreement with the Dolphins coincided with the NFC Championship Game, and he emphasized that he wasn't 'Josh McDaniels-ing' Miami. The upcoming game against the Ravens is expected to be interesting given the history between Fangio and Harbaugh.

📝 @AdamHBeasley: The last time current Miami Dolphins DC Vic Fangio faced John Harbaugh and the Baltimore Ravens, the game ended in acrimony. https://t.co/kdcZVCZ7sk
Vic Fangio says when he criticized the Ravens for running an unnecessary play years ago, with a record in mind, he made strong post-game comments in order to protect upset players and let them know they could put the issue to bed. Not an issue.
Fangio has a bad past with John Harbaugh & the Ravens, from his time as a HC in Denver. Sunday should be interesting 😈 #FinsUp https://t.co/jlMKtR5e8L
For hopefully the last time Vic Fangio agreed to terms with the #Dolphins on Jan. 29, the date of the NFC Championship Game and before the Ossenfort phone call. He wasn’t Josh McDaniels-ing Miami and the same tin-foil hatters would hate his defense anyway. Timing didn’t work out
