Chris Perkins: The reasons Dolphins offer for their offensive success might surprise you

Offensive diversity is a good thing. You want your offense to have multiple ways to score and gain yards. You want the deep passing game involving quarterback Tua Tagovailoa and wide receivers Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, the run game, the red-zone offense, the goal-line offense, the third-down offense, the whole package.

Having options, and having multiple ways to attack, makes you tougher to defend.

The Dolphins have offensive diversity. They’ve scored on deep passes, short passes, in the red zone, on runs, a variety of ways. Statistically, they’re not dominant as a unit — eighth in points per game (27.7) and 13th in yards per game (355.3) — but they find ways to win.
