Watching the Dolphins warming up pregame and Ricky Williams is working with the starters ahead of Ronnie Brown.
That leads me to believe Williams will be starting for the Dolphins tonight. Fact is, I just confirmed Williams will start.
Coach Tony Sparano wants to see how Williams reacts to starting while watching how Brown reacts to coming off the bench.
Still think Brown will play.
Join me in the comments section for the live blog.







Miami has the dolphins the greatest football team they run the ball from goal to goal like no one's ever seen.

i'm still a pretty big ronnie fan i must say. i think if he gets healthy enough he could have a big year.

Way to SMASHMOUTH into the endzone! IN YR FACE! Go Phins!
Posted by: Aqua Steel | August 16, 2008 at 07:56 PM
Lets see Ronnie Run First Armando. Ricky looks damn good though. I have more confidence in him at this point.

Dolphins in Garrard's face. there is a flag in the secondary. Pass intereference on Jason Allen. Dumb penalty by him.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | August 16, 2008 at 07:59 PM
I meant interference. Porter good job holding the edge vs. Taylor

Defense loosing it in the passing game
Posted by: DolphanforLife | August 16, 2008 at 08:00 PM
Garrard finds Lewis, the TE, in the opening of the Miami zone.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | August 16, 2008 at 08:00 PM
Pretty good pressure by the Dolphins up front. Garrard is very good at stepping up in the pocket, tho.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | August 16, 2008 at 08:01 PM
PI on Jason Alen
Posted by: Mitch (in NC) | August 16, 2008 at 08:01 PM
third and 5. Big play as last week the Dolphins couldn't get off the field on third down.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | August 16, 2008 at 08:02 PM
The Fins O-Line looks great! And the D-Line isn't far behind!
Posted by: Tommya | August 16, 2008 at 08:02 PM
garrard is having a tough time seeing over miami's huge defensive line.
Posted by: Eric | August 16, 2008 at 08:03 PM
Scobee FG is short.
OK, Ronnie Brown is in the game now.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | August 16, 2008 at 08:03 PM
And the Fins look FIESTY!
Posted by: Tommya | August 16, 2008 at 08:03 PM
My god we get to see the offense 3 times in one quater. I am very impressed
Posted by: DolphanforLife | August 16, 2008 at 08:03 PM
Does Mark Duper still play?
Posted by: Gary Stevens | August 16, 2008 at 08:04 PM
I am almost scared to get excited
Posted by: DolphanforLife | August 16, 2008 at 08:04 PM
Dolpanforlife,
Yeah, I keep reminding myself that this is JUST THE PRESEASON.
Posted by: Tommya | August 16, 2008 at 08:05 PM
Grigsby, in a battle with Mauia,picks up 7 on the checkdown.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | August 16, 2008 at 08:06 PM
Brown running hard for 5 yards.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | August 16, 2008 at 08:06 PM
O-line is solid and nice cut by Ronnie. Good to see with that knee
Posted by: edswood | August 16, 2008 at 08:07 PM
Bad blocking on the edge by the OL. Brown loses 3 yards. But it took him a while to get out there, it seemed.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | August 16, 2008 at 08:07 PM
Ronnie is not ready. Very slow up the gut and on the pitch
Posted by: DolphanforLife | August 16, 2008 at 08:07 PM
Screen pass to Brown sniffed out by Jax D. Gained only 3 yards.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | August 16, 2008 at 08:08 PM
Long is everywhere. Not only is he strong, he gets downfield quick.
Posted by: edswood | August 16, 2008 at 08:08 PM
I never thought I'd hear someone call Ronni Brown slow. Now Mark Higgs......
Posted by: Gary Stevens | August 16, 2008 at 08:08 PM
yeah baby!!!!
Posted by: Eric | August 16, 2008 at 08:08 PM
Pennington and Ginn hook up again on an incut. Great pluck of the ball by Ginn in traffic.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | August 16, 2008 at 08:08 PM
Ok Ginn and Pennington look good together!
Posted by: Tommya | August 16, 2008 at 08:08 PM
Damn, I am going to have start taking back all my comments about the GInnn family.
Posted by: edswood | August 16, 2008 at 08:09 PM
End around to Hagan. Nice play-calling!
Posted by: Armando Salguero | August 16, 2008 at 08:09 PM
2 a.m in Germany and Ricky looks awesome
Posted by: Germany speaking | August 16, 2008 at 08:09 PM
Fins are marching down the field! In the red zone!
Posted by: Tommya | August 16, 2008 at 08:09 PM
i don't see beck on the field with the quarterbacks.
Posted by: Eric | August 16, 2008 at 08:10 PM
Well so long Beck. We hardly knew ye.
Posted by: DolphanforLife | August 16, 2008 at 08:10 PM
QB's huddling on sidelines, but Beck nowhere to be seen. Did they cut him yet?
Posted by: edswood | August 16, 2008 at 08:10 PM
End of the first quarter. OK, this is preseason and it is only a couple of series.
but this offense seems to be improving and with Pennington at the helm, they don't seem overmatched on passing downs.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | August 16, 2008 at 08:10 PM
The Jags defense must be getting an earful. They are getting beat down by the Fins.
Posted by: Tommya | August 16, 2008 at 08:11 PM
Ginn just needed someone to get him the ball. Don't hate on him cause he was a Cam Cameron pick. He has skills. Reminds me of my buddy #83 mark Clayton
Posted by: Gary Stevens | August 16, 2008 at 08:11 PM
Beck might have some free time upcoming so he can do another mission.
Posted by: edswood | August 16, 2008 at 08:11 PM
i dont know if i can take all this excitement!
Posted by: cappy | August 16, 2008 at 08:11 PM
Ginn looks great!
Posted by: Benz | August 16, 2008 at 08:11 PM
Anyone else notice when the QB's are together with Sparano on the sideline you only see Pennington, Henne and McCown?
I think it's called 'foreshadowing'.
Posted by: Shane Falco | August 16, 2008 at 08:12 PM
Williams back in.
That is very strange.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | August 16, 2008 at 08:12 PM
Ronnie to the locker room!!!
Posted by: Benz | August 16, 2008 at 08:12 PM
I can't believe this...The station showing the game is having technical errors! What a crock...Last week the cable went out so I couldn't even read the blog...I'm destined to not see the games!
Posted by: Marc | August 16, 2008 at 08:12 PM
Ronnie Brown went to the locker room, but he's back out..... probably needed to potty. LOL
Posted by: Tommya | August 16, 2008 at 08:13 PM
Sparano must be competing with Bill Belicheat on who can look like the biggest slob on the sidelines. Think Belicheat with the herpes sore has him though.
Posted by: edswood | August 16, 2008 at 08:13 PM
A whole 27 yds offense for the Jags in the 1st qtr! When was the last time in any game at any time that we held a team to that little offense?
Posted by: jws1410 | August 16, 2008 at 08:14 PM
LOL @ edswood
Posted by: Gary Stevens | August 16, 2008 at 08:14 PM
I'm looking for Ronnie Brown on the sideline ...
Never mind. He's hurt. Thumb injury. He is questionable to return.
Posted by: | August 16, 2008 at 08:14 PM
ARMANDO............WOW, "IF" this OFFENSE gels faster than we think, what do you think of adding BOLDIN WR to this OFFENSE who is looking good already???????
Posted by: Rhino | August 16, 2008 at 08:14 PM
Feeley's release might have been politics, but Carpenter has a nice strong accurate leg.
Posted by: edswood | August 16, 2008 at 08:14 PM
trapper9,
got the program, but where the heck do i find the game?
thanx
Posted by: dolfan in iowa | August 16, 2008 at 08:15 PM
Did you guys really believe all the hype that brown was going to come back so quickly?
Posted by: steve g | August 16, 2008 at 08:15 PM
That Brown update was mine. I hate this typepad program.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | August 16, 2008 at 08:15 PM
That Witherspoon is faster than Ginn.
