"Sherman's offense struggled mightily during Miami's 8-8 season in 2013. The Dolphins were ranked 27th in total offense and 26th in scoring at 19.8 points per game.
Sherman often was criticized for a lack of balance and predictable play calling. But the final nail was after crucial, season-ending losses to the Buffalo Bills and New York Jets."

Can't we just re-write this article, change the dates, add Lazor's name in place of Sherman's and everything would seem like it is still the same after we changed offensive coordinators, added a bunch of free agent wide receivers and tight ends, used a 1st and 3rd round pick on receivers and an early round pick on a running back.
Let's try it out............................
"Lazor's offense struggled mightily during Miami's 8-8 season in 2014. The Dolphins were ranked 27th in total offense and 26th in scoring at 19.8 points per game.
Lazor often was criticized for a lack of balance and predictable play calling. But the final nail was after crucial, season-ending losses to the Buffalo Bills and New York Jets."
My Point ?
MAYBE Sherman wasn't the problem?!? Maybe Lazor isn't the problem?!? MAYBE, just MAYBE..................BOTH of these offensive coordinators were, or in Lazor's case, are being FORCED to play to Tannehll's "strengths" and having to alter and/or limit their own playbook because Tannehill doesn't have what it takes to run the kind of offense they want to run. Is it possible that TWO offensive coordinators had the exact same problem in Miami and they are to blame? Or, is it possible that the QUARTERBACK that they were working with was the problem??
Please post your thoughts on the subject, and please try to be objective and not just defend Tannehill because he is the Dolphins quarterback.
*****Remember......TWO offensive coordinators had the exact same problems with the Dolphins offense and they had one thing in common going into the job, their quarterback*******
