To say that the Miami Dolphins looked like a different team on Sunday would be a huge understatement. Aside from a pair of Ryan Tannehill interceptions, very little went wrong for Miami in a 38-10 road victory over the Tennessee Titans in the first game under interim head coach Dan Campbell.
Entering the contest, the Dolphins were one of only two teams in the NFL without a rushing touchdown. Miami was dead last in the NFL with only one sack through four games and had trailed by double-digits in the first half in every game. Miami also entered Sunday’s contest in Nashville with only three takeaways on the season.
Whether it was a new energy brought by Campbell, the reported more intense practices or a different overall strategy, the changes paid instant dividends as the Dolphins improved to 2-3.
It took the Dolphins just four minutes and 21 seconds to get off the rushing touchdown snide as receiver Jarvis Landry took a reverse 22 yards for a touchdown. Lamar Miller broke the century mark and scored a touchdown, finishing with 113 yards on 19 carries while the Dolphins as a team rushed for a season-high 180 yards — 72 more than their previous best this season.
