Man with legs walks
WHEN/IF Kyle Philips comes back healthy, and we have figured out that we need to use play action, then our offense WILL be incredible.
Think, with the passes to Burks for 70 and Moore for 49, Tannehill had 119 passing yards on just two explosive throws. That’s ridiculously good, right?
Water is wet
It’s almost as if he’s had the best running back in the league behind him
Tim Kelly’s genius is realizing play action is good
They counting you out 17…
Might be getting ahead of myself but this offense looks like an entirely different team under Tim Kelly. I had my doubts but man he has proved me wrong through two games. Week 1 can absolutely be chocked up to Tannehill, I really didn’t see any glaring issues with Kelly’s calls.
Play action has always been his greatest strength.
This is where our offense excelled at and was fun to watch with Arthur Smith as OC. Remember how it was either you stop Derrick Henry or AJ Brown will be somewhere wide open, or Derrick Henry plows through the defense while AJ has eyes on him. If Kelly realizes how effective play action is he can replicate what Arthur Smith had going on, this is what Todd Downing ignored entirely during his awful stint as OC.
