The Dolphins have a new offense, and they have a new tempo to the offense. That new tempo is causing opponents to lose their ability to lose old foodstuffs.

Receiver Jarvis Landry told the story on Tuesday as it relates to the Week Two preseason game against the Cowboys, via Chris Perkins of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel.

“I think you look at that game there were a couple of guys on their team throwing up while we were driving, so it’ll be interesting to see for four quarters if those d-lines can hold up against our tempo and the way we want to move the ball down the field,” Landry said.

Miami offensive lineman Billy Turner was unable to confirm Landry’s version of the events.

“I have no idea,” Turner said. “I didn’t see it, thank God.”

Regardless, Turner sees the benefit of the offense moving quickly.

“Whenever you’re in an offense where you don’t huddle, and don’t have to huddle, and you’re always on the ball, that creates a sense of chaos for the defense so they’re running around trying to get the right personnel on the field,” Turner said.

If it helps the Dolphins move the ball, it will help them score points. Which will help them win games (duh).
