You know Ryan Tannehill will start at quarterback tonight. You know we have a live blog starting at the 8:07 kickoff. Do you know the inactives? Do you know Tannehill is not the only significant rookie starting his first game for Miami?
Let's get caught up:
Cameron Wake (back), Karlos Dansby (knee), Kevin Burnett (back), Eric Steinbach (knee), David Garrard (knee), Tony McDaniel (leg), Jonas Gray (knee), Brian Hartline (calf), and Kelcie McCray (foot) are out.
Rookie Olivier Vernon starts for Wake. Gary Guyton and Jason Trusnik start for Dansby and Burnett.
Interestingly, Artis Hicks is scheduled to play. He missed a couple of days of practice with an unknown injury. So much for the much expected competition between him and Steinbach.
jeez that sucked. at least brandon still has a cannon for a leg

Ankle-weights Wallace was wide open.

Tannehill is WORSE then Henne!
Posted by: Zonk | August 17, 2012 at 08:24 PM
Tonto ?? Another one of ur Aliases
Fin4Life, we cool.
Dashi is ok with everyone unless they Attempt to "Start Making Funny" Jokes.
Oscar 80% of the Commentary? Don't give urself that much credit. We know it's Ur Paranoid Schizophrenic Asz with all them Characteurs.
I guess we are all happy T-Hill went 3 & out

Some of you guys need medication.

I will never understand how rookies stare down receivers. They don't do it in college, and even if they did, why aren't coaches making it a priority that they can't do it here?!?! Almost every qb bust states down his receivers. Inexcusable to me by the coaching staff.

RKo, first row sports, for online.

good match Davis-Smith
Posted by: tony in miami | August 17, 2012 at 08:26 PM
Vontae Davis is in the game, but for Sean Smith rather than Marshall.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | August 17, 2012 at 08:26 PM
Armando, lol
Posted by: Ron In Vegas | August 17, 2012 at 08:26 PM
great to see vontae break up a play
Posted by: Drew | August 17, 2012 at 08:26 PM
Are all sports fans just complete morons? Ryan leaf tore up preseason, dalton and almost every other qb not named manning struggled their rookie year. Don't talk if ur going to be ignorant.
Posted by: inimounts | August 17, 2012 at 08:26 PM
this game is a total mismatch lol
Posted by: Zonk | August 17, 2012 at 08:26 PM
Cam's got all day to throw, where's the pass D?
Posted by: redsky | August 17, 2012 at 08:27 PM
What floors me is that every fan saying bench him or Moore in are the same that say he should sit a year or two. Either ur patient or impatient, but pick one.
Posted by: inimounts | August 17, 2012 at 08:27 PM
Wow our d took a step back with this staff
Posted by: qbclub13 | August 17, 2012 at 08:28 PM
It will be ironic that our coach gets floored by the offensive coordinator that should've been our coach.
Posted by: inimounts | August 17, 2012 at 08:28 PM
I Told you guys very good match Davis-Smith
Posted by: tony in miami | August 17, 2012 at 08:28 PM
It's just Pre-season. Alright.
Posted by: Dashi | August 17, 2012 at 08:28 PM
It's like vontae doesn't learn
Posted by: inimounts | August 17, 2012 at 08:29 PM
Anyone can tell me where I can watch the game, I'm in El paso and it's not on tv
Posted by: chino | August 17, 2012 at 08:29 PM
straight up, love the fire from vontae
Posted by: Drew | August 17, 2012 at 08:29 PM
Tanny looks like he should've stayed in college an extra year.
Posted by: Marino 13 | August 17, 2012 at 08:29 PM
Misi and The Lb's are the Problem right now.
Posted by: Dashi | August 17, 2012 at 08:30 PM
I'm anticipating our secondary to be in a different class than last year. The same guy that put together Leon hall and Jonathan Joseph for 12 picks two years ago
Posted by: inimounts | August 17, 2012 at 08:30 PM
Chino, google first row sports
Posted by: redsky | August 17, 2012 at 08:30 PM
Koa Misi is getting destroyed in coverage.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | August 17, 2012 at 08:30 PM
he should have tucked and run with it...
Posted by: certified turd burglar | August 17, 2012 at 08:30 PM
Garbage
Posted by: qbclub13 | August 17, 2012 at 08:31 PM
Cam Newton, is spectacular. Ryan Tannehill needs to take notes.
Posted by: bigtrav1 | August 17, 2012 at 08:31 PM
Newton is very, very good...or this defense is very, very bad.
Posted by: HelloIt'sMe | August 17, 2012 at 08:31 PM
Love this! I have Carolina -4!!
Posted by: Vegas Mike | August 17, 2012 at 08:31 PM
The problem is personnel. Vontae is the only starter, and instead of getting Newman who led Dallas in picks we got a scrub for same price
Posted by: inimounts | August 17, 2012 at 08:31 PM
That was easy, Mando I need medication, where's our D????
Posted by: redsky | August 17, 2012 at 08:31 PM
2 drives. 10 points. Less than 9 minutes.
Posted by: inimounts | August 17, 2012 at 08:31 PM
D is bad very bad
Posted by: qbclub13 | August 17, 2012 at 08:32 PM
MISMATCH MISMATCH MISMATCH
Posted by: Vegas Mike | August 17, 2012 at 08:32 PM
How is mare still kicking lol
Posted by: inimounts | August 17, 2012 at 08:32 PM
Oh god....we are going to bad this year Folks...no gettin around that!!!
Posted by: superPHIN | August 17, 2012 at 08:32 PM
Vontae Davis got punked by Smith. Let's see if he now goes in the tank or grows a pair and scraps.
Posted by: HelloIt'sMe | August 17, 2012 at 08:32 PM
I wouldn't start any of our safeties. Only one corner. We are going to get picked apart all year. I hope coyles isn't blamed.
Posted by: inimounts | August 17, 2012 at 08:33 PM
Rookie QBs having to come from behind usually equals trouble.
Posted by: Chris in the 623 | August 17, 2012 at 08:33 PM
Secondary the biggest question on this team IMO and it has not looked good so far. Sean Smith can't tackle, Vontae is too hot and cold, Clemons is awful in coverage, and Jones can't haul in the ints. All Ireland draft picks too, just sayin'
Posted by: Jon | August 17, 2012 at 08:33 PM
Defense can't defend the pass and Tannehill is a bit nervous.
Posted by: fins4ever | August 17, 2012 at 08:33 PM
This team is friggin horrible. Just bet against them every week and make a fortune!
Posted by: Vegas Mike | August 17, 2012 at 08:34 PM
Cam newton could be spectacular, but he is not throwing that great. He just has all day and their wide open
Posted by: inimounts | August 17, 2012 at 08:34 PM
This defense is getting tore up two weeks in a row now...Id say thats cuase for concern for coyle and company!!!!
Posted by: superPHIN | August 17, 2012 at 08:34 PM
Let's compare this game to last years Carolina game; here is the box score:

Posted by: TheSMF | August 17, 2012 at 08:34 PM
can we at least get a first down or two please!!!
Posted by: superPHIN | August 17, 2012 at 08:35 PM
That was a horrible call.
Cause Davis Won? He got the Call!!
Little man Started it. Davis is just to big for S.Smith.
Posted by: Dashi | August 17, 2012 at 08:35 PM
Tannehill doesnt get the speed of the NFL. Same problem Henne had.
Posted by: Jay | August 17, 2012 at 08:35 PM
At least last year the D was better. So far I'm not encouraged.
Posted by: redsky | August 17, 2012 at 08:36 PM
koa misi is very bad at football
Posted by: Drew | August 17, 2012 at 08:36 PM
this is preseason at it's worse
don't really care how thill does means nothing talk to me in january and se if we need a new qb
Posted by: revans | August 17, 2012 at 08:36 PM
Thanks, Redsky
Posted by: RKO | August 17, 2012 at 08:36 PM
relax jay...this team is not ready to compete this year, and tannys played only one game...its going to take more than that to judge him!!!
Posted by: superPHIN | August 17, 2012 at 08:36 PM
about time for a pick
Posted by: TheSMF | August 17, 2012 at 08:36 PM
0-4 for Hennehill.
Posted by: Mike | August 17, 2012 at 08:36 PM
I'm not saying Miami becoming a laughing stock is like Dallas becoming one, but it's not far off.
Posted by: inimounts | August 17, 2012 at 08:37 PM
dropped pass...*lmao*
