Live blog and lineup changes here

Minutes before the start of what promises to be the most meaningless game of the season:

Ryan Tannehill is going to start. He's going to start running, too, if he's smart.

That's because the starting offensive line will be a backup unit except for rookie Jonathan Martin at right tackle. The unit consists of Ray Feinga at LT, Chandler Burden at left guard, Ryan Cook at center, John Jerry at right guard and Martin at right tackle.

Crazy, right?

Daniel Thomas starts for Reggie Bush, who is not expected to play.

The injured scratches tonight are: Jake Long (right knee), David Garrard (knee), Nate Garner (head), Tony McDaniel (leg), Lydon Murtha (foot), Brian Hartline (calf), and defensive end Derrick Shelby (shoulder).

Middle linebacker Karlos Dansby is dressed but not expected to play. Austin Spitler starts in his place. Kevin Burnett is dressed but not expected to play. Gary Guyton starts in his place.

There's a live blog happening in the comments section. I'll be there for the kickoff. See you there.

If I were Jeff Ireland I would resign tonight. 4yrs of bringing players in and this is what the final results look like. How can Ireland look himself in the mirror after this crap tonight.

We need to bring in our 1st team against Dallas' 3rd team just to make it a fair fight.

ALoco you post like an old Granny that never gets out of house.

Please work on something new to post.

(Buffett of same old crusty crap)

[ALoco]

DASHI,

WHAT PLAYBOOK ? WE HAVE NO PLAYBOOK ,WE JUST RUN AND FIGURE THINGS ON THE FLY ,,,,,,,,,,,,,

[oscar canosa]

I don't think Wake can contain well on that right side. He's going to need help.

[superPHIN]

I definately am starting to see why Moore didnt get the job as the starter for week 1....UGLY!!!

[Coalition To Get Coalition Out Of The Closet]

OMG! I don't believe it. Jerry Jones is still alive?

Wow!

[Yesterday'sGone]

Its beginning to look like its has taken Jeff Ireland 4yrs to accomplish what only took Cam=Mueller 1 yr to accomplish. Thats to build a 1-15 team. LOL

[navydolfaninva]

What's funny is how we were all bitcing (myself included) about another losing season at 6-10...I have a feeling this year we're going to miss being 6-10.

[oscar canosa]

Pat Devlin should come now and we should see a difference.

[Coalition To Get Coalition Out Of The Closet]

SuperPhin just STARTING to see why Tannehill starts over Moore?

Bhwaaaaaaaaaaa Haaaaaaaaaaaa Haaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!

Way to stay on top of things.

[Yesterday'sGone]

Guys,

This team wont score 100pts for the entire season unless something drastic is done with recieving corps.

[sagneul]

Some guys think this is fantasy ball.. they say "cut this guy, grabb this one, plugg in there and problem solve"... LOL.

[Finn]

wtf is going on in this here silly blog? do they have free wifi under bridges now?

[ALoco]

YG.............

WHY ROSS IS PAYING CLOSE TO 9 MILLIN A YEAR FOR PHILBIN,SHERMAN AND THE DC ?

B/C HE WILL FIRE THE GARAGE MANAGER AT THE FIRST CHANCE ...

[superPHIN]

No colition,

Thats more for the moore lovers out there...on top of things..*lol*

[Dashi]

Aloco,

If u stop being so Negative.

Playbook?

We have plays. Wr's just can't catch.

And the Fins still haven't used T-hills mobility because it's the Preseason.

We have a Way more potent Offensive Scheme than we've had the last 4 years.

[sagneul]

Enough is enough.. see ya guys

[ALoco]

KRIS SAID.......

11-5 THIS YEAR......

[Redwintho]

I say, we cut Moore and Garrard, put Delvin as back up, and pick up another rookie QB who's cut from another team... Will get the first pick next year, especially if RT in a flop, then will draft Barkley, and put RT at WR.....

[MiamiD20]

Where's the Matt Moore love tonight? Cmon I wanna hear it from the supporters who think he should start when he can't do anything (except suck) against 2nd and 3rd stringers

[WIDolfan]

I agree with Dashi problem is execution not the plays themselves

[oscar canosa]

Definitely you can see the difference that good coaching makes. Carroll, S. Smith, Jerry.

[Finn]

ALoco is by far the most deviant of all the bridge people i see posting here.

[oscar canosa]

Philbin not happy at all.

[superPHIN]

KRIS SAID.......
11-5 THIS YEAR......
Posted by: ALoco | August 29, 2012 at 10:20 PM

he meant 5-11, he had to mean that...

[JS_in_LA]

Sasquatch has been seen more often than our pass rush...

Javorskie Lane is a better receiver than Naanee

For a tall guy, Naanee plays SHORT, and doesn't even use his arms to reach.

Feinga cannot play LT. Sad.

R. Matthews had a beautiful come-back route. CB froze.

Can we finally stop the "Moore is a starter" talk. Back-up skills, and showing it tonight.

Our first pick next draft needs to be a PASS RUSHING MANIAC. Second pick, WR. Third pick: LB who can cover passes.

Anyone else think Thigpen as a slot wr might be interesting?

[superPHIN]

Moore=Shameful...he's playing his way out of the NFL

[Jake]

Aloco/Coalition To Get Coalition Out Of The Closet
FREAKS!

SUPERFIN...KRIS IS V ERY SMART BLOGGER ,HE SAID LAST NIGHT ,WE WILL BE IN THE PLAYOFFS THIS YEAR.

There once was a man whose name was jed
did his made until his nuts turned red
then one day he was doing her in his bed
when up from his stick came a bubbling spread
Leche that is
White Gold

[rauplan]

LEt's be positive.... when is draft 2013 ?

[Indiana Dolfan]

Fasucko - Maybe if you use a TypePad account your name will appear in blue as well, that is so irrelevant to anything. As for living 1000 miles away, yes you may be correct, but I bet I will attend more games than you

[nyfinfan]

Armando,

One correction. This is a meaningless pre-season game in a meaningless season to come.

[superPHIN]

Aloco, i know what kris wishes we would do this year but the reality is not GOOD for this team...just sayin

[ALickus]

I WRITE ALL IN CAPS AND MISSPELL ON PROPOSITO BECAUSE I AM RETARDO!

[jv]

I want my abuela!

[oscar canosa]

No pass rush at all. Good 2ndary work.

[Huh?]

take it down, I will be sore. make Phins78 eat!

ALOCO WANTS YOUR ABUELA TOO. IN FACT HE PROBABLY IS YOUR ABUELA

[oscar canosa]

It is good to see these games to figure out who will stick here.

[0-16]

I have never seen a professional team as talent-less as this one in all of my yrs of watching sports.

I honestly do not see a win on their schedule

[bobbyd12]

3-13 if we beat the Jets one game I will be happy

[JS_in_LA]

Cunningham nice catch. Tough to stretch over the mmiddle. Gutsy.

[B. Sanders]

This the Green Bay Lions team Philbin and Ireland put together?

[superPHIN]

Lamar Miller looks like a deer running threw a group of bears...speeds no good if you cant break free...

[oscar canosa]

We have a long way to go. We can see the superiority of Dalla's personnel overall over ours. WE know that.

[JS_in_LA]

Miller looks less than tough to tackle. Hasn't beaten the first tackler once that I saw.

Someone better show me some moxy here.

[ALickuS]

I LIKE SPEWING VERBAL DIARRHEA. I LOOK LIKE NEIL ROGERS(THE DEAD VERSION) AND I ASSUME DIFFERNET PRESONALITEES ON ESTE BLOG.

[bobbyd12]

Wow, just wow

[Indiana Dolfan]

This team amazes me on how bad they really are. Besides the turnover we got has the non starters made it across the 50?

[rauplan]

what else can go wrong ? we are the Green Bay dolphans ... get your paper bag

[superPHIN]

Good God...do we have to display this product as a proffessional football team on sundays...

[ALickuS]

MY MADRE MAKES ME BAGEL BITES WITH FONTINA CHEESE, BUT SHE HAS PARSLEY SO SHE SHOOKS A LOT ON THEM.

[Brown Sack TIme Guys]

Don't expect much this season folks.

--J. Philbin

[Indiana Dolfan]

so their backups can break plays like that, why can't ours??

[72perfectstill]

This is the team Ireland built

[rauplan]

Philbin : get rid of every player (except maybe a couple)... it won't make a difference... get as much picks for next year ... there is no reason to be in the NFL this year...
