Those are by far Tannehill's best plays. We gotta keep it up.
 
Especially in the red zone. I feel like we force runs up the middle. Use Tannehill's legs more. At times it would like an easy TD if Tannehill keeps the ball.
 
Absolutely. That third and one, where it ended up a blocked field goal. Right there. A bootleg would have not only got you a first down, but most likely a touchdown.
 
I have completely turned on Tannehill this season, but he really is one of the best passers on the run to, either side, in the whole league. He can be deadly accurate on what are really some of the toughest throws in football.
 
More plays for under center! I think Tannehill plays far better when they play traditional football. As a former fullback, can we get one of those too???
 
I really feel like that broken play where he bounced off the defender and threw that dart against his body turned his confidence way up. He needed that. It was nice to see him improvise and make a great play. I think that could possible be his "London" moment for this season. Hopefully
 
Well when you run the ball well that's what you can expect. When you can't run block for crap like these past 5 weeks it's hard to keep a defense honest. So many open receivers on the bootleg plays today all because we so thoroughly established the running game. Awesome.
 
Each roll out/play action netted us at least 8-9 yards each time...it was wide open all game. You have to keep doing that until a team pounds Tannehill into the turf. Until then, run it to death.

No one on any defense wants to tackle a 270LB tight end alone...several times a game.
 
You have to be able to run the ball to set those plays up. Jay Ajayi and the offensive line will be the keys to this offense.
 
Strange, we got our running game going, Kept our QB upright, and the Defense played an actual game of professional football, and the end result was a victory. Do other teams know about this strategy? If they don't, shhh.
 
Amazing how good ajayi and tannehill can look when you can actually block.. Now just got to clean up the stupid penalties
 
You only do roll outs if you have a running game.

I have been screaming like an infantile baby for five years that the Dolphins need to incorporate more stretch plays to create bootleg opportunities and lean hard on that boot play action when the pass rush is getting frisky. Guess what happens when we actually do it? Guess what happens?
