‘Philm Study’: Miami Dolphins Myles Gaskin EARNED the Starting Job

[MDFINFAN]

A deep dive into why Myles Gaskin IS Miami’s #1 runner​

My goal with this article is an ambitious one to present the definitive look (or thereabouts) of running back Myles Gaskin. Now, for those of you who aren’t as high on Gaskin as I am, maybe a bunch of history, stats, and tape will change your mind in this ‘Philm Study’. I broke my foot a week or so ago and have had plenty of time on my hands… so if you are into a very deep study, here you go!

I read that he faced eight in the box on 23 percent of his carries. That is sure to change with the additions of Fuller and Waddle.

Thanks!

It will change if we PROVE we can throw the ball effectively ....

But, will keep saying that our RB room isn’t special, but it’s good enough for what we need this year and there is NO FA that will make it any better ...

Thanks for sharing. He has talent and the speed outside should help the O-line's run blocking with less players in the box to block.

Thank you, great stuff.

I mean I could see that, it was obvious. We do need a mauler though for short yardage because we sucked there be it line or back or a combo of both. Chippin', blockin'...fuhgeddaboudit!

Loved the article with 1 exception and it’s not even related to the Dolphins or Gaskins’ future performance.

I cringe when I see the PAC12 is weak argument. Obviously the PAC is not on the same level as the SEC or Big 10. They’re also not on the Big12’s level but the gap isn’t as big as some would make it seem. But when it comes to the ACC, I feel that the PAC is flat-out better from top to bottom with Clemson being the only program that’s head and shoulders better than anybody in the PAC .

I’m sure it’s not a popular opinion considering a lot of folks in here either live in Florida, or have Florida ties, but I feel very strongly that Clemson carries a very weak conference overall and that it will stay that way until Florida State and Miami are “back”- but who’s to say that will ever happen?

Teams were daring Tua to throw.
Forget about RB in high round or signing a vet RB, if Tua does not improve, i don't care who we get.

Malcolm Brown and Offensive Rookie of the Year Candidate Gerrid Doaks would like to speak to you.

Those are interesting adds. At the very least, Brown should easily be an upgrade over Jordan Howard.

Doaks will be given a chance. I bet he makes the team.

Agreed.
I said it many times and I say it again, in today's NFL, you don't need a 'special' RB. You need an adequate RB.
Tell me, in last 15 SB winners, who has a special RB?

I assure you I hope they satisfy and allow us to get those short yards when needed
