i lvoed seeing the creative offense out there... Ricky and Ronnie in the backfield together, how they motioned, how they play faked, everything.... very creative, much fun!!!

also... what a DOMINANT job Jake Long and the rest of the offense line did on the run attack.... i mean holes everywhere, second level.... props to the EXECUTION!!!
 
Yup the coaching staff did a great job this week of creating some plays that nobody had seen us run before.
 
we've tried running creative offenses before, it just never used to work. How many times has Ronnie run a half back pass? I think hes done it like 2-3 times now, and this is the only one that worked.
 
I loved them running the same set but 4 different plays from it so they had no idea where it was going! Great coaching this week.
 
there was that one play on 3rd and inches where Ricky was the tailback and Ronnie was at FB, and they ran the ball up the gut with Ronnie for the first down. real basic play, but setup great and worked to perfection.

our trick plays in the past were just very obvious. Saban would run the reverse with Chambers 2-3 times in a half it seemed, and Cam faked the reverse with Ginn so much that when we ran it they were ready for it. The Wildcat formation is just hard to defend because when they go after Ronnie, he just options off to Ricky.
 
I love the positive attitude. Much different from last week. As someone on one of these boards said, this game would decide our season and future. I guess the Fins are back. If we beat SD with more of these great plays, then we have shot at winning the division. The Jets seemed to struggle against NE, but we destroyed them. NE is in panic right now (I would be to if I lost to a 1-15 team). Buff looks great, but they struggled against Oak (One of the worst teams in the league because of the coaching). I was hoping for Buff to lose, but NE losing is even better. NYJ I could care less about right now. I'm ready for the playoffs (Probably won't happen, but you never know).
 
Today's game was the most exciting and creative offense the Dolphins have had since I was a kid and we'd run flea flickers with Marino every other game. And what made it even better was that I wasn't expecting anything like that.
 
I loved the offense all together. The two third down convertions, the one to Fasano all alone in the middle of the field and finishes it by punishing the Safety and the one previously mentioned with Ronnie at fullback. I loved watching the O-Line block today, Long looked really good today, and Chad just did a good job of managing it all. The spin away from Thomas and finding Wilford on the sideline for a 1st down. I think the entire offense played really well. Ginn had some really nice catches, some nice throws and catches by Camarillo. A+ to this offense today in scheme and execution. Their best offensive play should have actually been a pick by Hill.
 
I like the "Feed Ronnie No Matter What" type gameplan. This is exactly what we needed!
 
Single Wing plays

The Fins put a new spin on the very old single wing offense, and when I say old, I mean that is how teams reguarly played in the 1930's and 1940's, Single wing or "quarterbackless" formations. It will be interesting to see if they stick with it the rest of the season.

It's also what Arkansas used with Darren McFadden and Felix Jones, an offense our QB coach, David Lee, as experience running
 
It was just so refreshing to see something that I have never seen the Dolphins run. It was just really fun to watch.
 
I really would like to see us stick with it. It's something I haven't seen done in the NFL for as long as I can remember. I sure as hell never saw it executed as well as it was on Sunday.

I'm just wondering if we should look after a faster quarterback to maybe sub into situations like this. Similar to Ohio State with Pryor or most college teams for that matter. Allow us to have another receiver on the field or Ricky and Ronnie in on situations.

Let's stick to the "wildcat" formation. I'll be calling for it in Madden come next year.
