In 2024, the Miami Dolphins' offense struggled, ranking 18th in the NFL after being the most productive in 2023. This failure prompted speculation that teams figured out coach Mike McDaniel's scheme. McDaniel acknowledged that defenses adjusted to their strategy, emphasizing the need for a balanced attack that includes effective run game support for the pass. Health concerns regarding key players like Tua Tagovailoa and Tyreek Hill, as well as maintaining continuity with coaching staff, are crucial for a rebound in 2025.
The Dolphins can't rely solely on their pass game to make this offense go; they need to be able to pressure defenses on the ground as well.
I think one of the things that was very is clear is that defenses had spent their time figuring out how to make us perform in all facets.
To be too one-dimensional in any way shape or form - regardless of how adept were at doing any sort of pass game - I think they've showed us that we will have to earn our way out of that.
It speaks to what we preach every day in terms of balance and run affecting pass and vice-versa.
