The Palm Beach Post reports the Dolphins should consider incorporating the pistol formation into their offense as they move into Year 2 of the Joe Philbin-Mike Sherman-Ryan Tannehill era in 2013. Sherman, the offensive coordinator, gave Tannehill more freedom to run at the end of the season, and he rushed for 181 of his 211 yards over the final six games, including a couple of 30-yard runs out of the read-option play that Colin Kaepernick and Robert Griffin III made famous this year. Tannehill said he’s no stranger to the pistol, either. “I did a little bit in college — not a whole lot, but a few snaps,” he said. “So it’s something I have done before a little bit, and it’s exciting just to see the NFL grow in that direction.”
