Miami Dolphins: Three Effective Screen Plays For Your Offense

The Miami Dolphins are a great screen team. They have an excellent team and do a great job offensively with their screens. You will see them run their screens in traditional downs, in the red zone and on 3rd down.

Let’s start with the Red Zone!

Red Zone

The Dolphins do a great job running screens in the red zone. Below are 2 excellent screens they have ran this year.

They motion the RB out to the flat and create an empty look with the motion. This is window dressing as they hit the TE inside on the screen.

In the next example, they line Tyreek Hill up in the backfield, fake to him the other way. They are trying to create the illusion that Hill is getting the ball but they use him as a decoy.

They sell Hill on the play action and get 3 defenders to react, then throw the screen the other way.
