Last week, I told you the Miami Dolphins were shifting philosophies with Kenyan Drake and Frank Gore in that the team was going away from a Drake-led rushing attack toward more of a shared situation with Gore getting many more carries than anyone expected.
Well, now we understand to what depth the Dolphins are going to be using this new approach.
And why.
As you saw in Sunday’s game against the Bengals, the Dolphins gave Gore the football 12 times. He led the team in rushes for the third consecutive week. Drake, meanwhile, ran the football six times — half as many as Gore.
