Dolphins WR Trent Sherfield revealed something today that isn't a surprise: "The playbook is the same it is in San Fran."

That makes sense because all the shifting, motion, and play action really looked similar to the 49ers scheme when we played the Bucs and during our camps. The fact that we also share the same or similar terminology also isn’t a surprise.
As for this week, I expect us to work hard to establish the run vs the Raiders. I’m not sure how long our starters will play vs the Raiders but they are unlikely to play much at all vs the Eagles in our last Pre Season game.
 
Just like the playbook he could have said that as a form of misdirection. Yes it could be based on the SF playbook, but there could be tweaks and wrinkles to make it different
McD has been on this offense for years. He probably helped implement most of it
 
Sherfield should not have been so open and transparent. He will probably make the roster for his special teams proven performance and he's handy depth at WR. However, he should be castigated for making that admission public. Just dumb...
By making this admission public, opposing Defenses will smile and just focus on certain approaches to handling certain formations because the Dolphin Offense now becomes more predictable. If Sherfield had Bill Belichick as his head coach, he'd be facing a stint in the doghouse and torture.

What offense do you think we are running?

This isn't ground breaking news.
 
it's ok to use the same offense.....the terminology should be different though
