The 2008 Miami Dolphins were off to a 0-2 start under new head coach Tony Sparano. The team was coming off their 1-15 2017 campaign and it did not appear things were going to be any better this season. As the team got back on the plane to fly home from a loss against the Arizona Cardinals, there was a sense of dread hanging over the team. Sparano sat down with quarterbacks coach David Lee, who the previous year had worked as the Arkansas offensive coordinator and had run an offensive scheme which included a series of plays that the Dolphins would now consider adding to the playbook.
