We will start the run the ball more moving forward....

We should have done that in the second half in Cincinnati, and especially the Jets and Vikings games. Will McDaniel learn from prior mistakes? Can he and will he adjust to the current situation at QB? We needed to run the ball more regardless. We’ve been gashing teams with the run in the past two weeks and have yet again gone away from it almost entirely in the second half.

I’m not suggesting a run heavy offense. Not with those “FERRARIS” on the field. There needs to be a balance, and that balance should be adjusted accordingly throughout the football game.
 
If we’ve learned anything over the last several weeks, it’s that McD has an inability to commit to the run, even when it’s blatantly obvious to do so.

So I doubt we will run it more. Love the guy, but it’s an area of concern for sure.
 
I mean... fins ran the ball 18 times on Sunday for 82 yards... got called for holding on 4 more plays... You guys do the math...
 
Beli will take away the run until we show we can pass it, don't need a genius to figure that out. McD has his work cut out for him, better have the cart warmed up for Teddy between Pats and Jets
 
Probably not. McDaniel thinks he's playing madden so as we seen last time, coach will not adjust the game plan to teddy's strengths or run the ball. More Dolphin sense

Dunno. I think he'll have a good game plan for 1Q. Won't be difficult. same game plan for Teddy it would have been for TT. No reason to match scheme with personnel. Yes, I'm cynical

Sure but we had 56 yards in the first quarter w few gashing runs. You can’t go away from that when you’re getting 9-13 yards on 3-4 runs in 1 quarter. But we did

His tendency is when the run is working, as soon as there is a run for -2 to 2 yards he punks out and drops the run game altogether. It happened this past Sunday. Both Mostert and Wilson combined for 56 yards in just the first quarter. Second half we didn’t run and we didn’t score any points. It’s not a mystery as to why that happens
 
I don’t know haven’t watched all your games. However I find it really interesting that a teams whos HC background is a Run Game coordinator is 62.21% pass. Top 5 in the league. Although over the last three has gotten a bit better at only 58% pass.
