Sure, that happens a lot, but the example provided is that the Dolphins averaged running a 0-blitz 16 times a game...this game they only did it 4 times. I imagine it was probably because they believe Kirk would have killed them, but it certainly does cause a lot of adjustment in-game, which isn't an easy thing to do. Good to see the talent of this team come through even the coaches weren’t prepared. It’s early in the year so there isn’t a lot of tape out there, especially against teams with new coaching staffs.

The Dolphins stayed in base defense against 11 personnel on 2 of 175 snaps prior to playing the Vikings. The coaches prepared based on defensive tendencies, and adjusted on the fly. "unprepared" is not a word that I would use to describe this staff. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
