Guard Artis Hicks is out with a neck injury. John Jerry starts at right guard, as I reported yesterday. Kevin Burnett (back) is not playing so Gary Guyton starts for him. And as I previously read on this blog, Karlos Dansby (knee) also isn't playing while Austin Spitler takes his spot.
The rest of the Dolphins scratches tonight:
David Garrard (knee), Kelcie McCray (foot), Kevyn Scott (leg), Jonas Gray (knee), Burnett (back), Dansby (knee), Lydon Murtha (foot), Tony McDaniel (leg) and Brian Hartline (leg).
The Murtha injury is interesting in that he missed much of last season with a foot injury. It is unknown if it's the same foot but this is not good.
Vontae Davis is scheduled to play so you can now totally discoun the idea he's going to be traded in the next day or so.
And finally, we have a live blog going this evening. I'll meet you in the comments section at kickoff.
I like how we have not had any illegal motion penalties

TANNEHILL BLOWZ!! WTF??
Posted by: Mike | August 24, 2012 at 08:39 PM
Tannehills release is so quick. That should help to avoid sacks, just like that.
Posted by: Jaison | August 24, 2012 at 08:39 PM
did martin give up that sack??
Posted by: bill connors | August 24, 2012 at 08:39 PM
That sack was a coverage sack. That was on the WRs.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | August 24, 2012 at 08:39 PM
Correction, 6 points, two field goals

Please fool. Put the bottle down. You stupid drunken lush.
BTW, did you see that fumble? DO the earth a favor...FALL OFF IT!
Posted by: Odin Drunkeye | August 24, 2012 at 08:39 PM
INT and a fumble. YIKES!!
Posted by: uh oh | August 24, 2012 at 08:40 PM
BrandonFields will make the pro bowl.
The rest of the team is worthy of the toilet bowl.
FLUSH!
Posted by: Neil's GhosT | August 24, 2012 at 08:40 PM
As much as I'd like to blame Tannehill, these WRs and this OLine are horrendous. He had no time that past drive
Posted by: MiamiD20 | August 24, 2012 at 08:40 PM
Is there a reason why Jake Long seems to be regressing? Anyone else noticing this? He just got tricked by Abraham' looked like a rookie.
Posted by: Phins78 | August 24, 2012 at 08:40 PM
Tannehill walked into that sack. He stayed high on that side in pocket right where the closest pass ruser was.
Posted by: Yesterday's Gone | August 24, 2012 at 08:40 PM
martin has to be beanched, make a deal for oline
Posted by: bill connors | August 24, 2012 at 08:40 PM
Either the crowd is wearing all orange or there's a lot of empty seats......
Wgy to go Mr. Ross.
Posted by: Cuban Menace | August 24, 2012 at 08:41 PM
worrying aboout seats during a preseason game ? our fans are the best.
Posted by: noah from lantana | August 24, 2012 at 08:41 PM
That sack happenmed on Long's side. You guys are blind. It wasnt even J Martin's side. Geesh!~ LOL

Posted by: scottbibs | August 24, 2012 at 08:41 PM
marshall tearing up, already 4 catches and a td
Posted by: bill connors | August 24, 2012 at 08:41 PM
Jonathan Martin is going to get someone killed. Another Ireland bust.
Posted by: Orlando Dolphan | August 24, 2012 at 08:41 PM
No fair Atl is keeping starting D in the game
Posted by: CadillacDeville | August 24, 2012 at 08:41 PM
so much for establishing a tempo on offense...o look the defense has to go back out...They so need to huddle up more...even if it takes every sec off the clock
Posted by: superPHIN | August 24, 2012 at 08:41 PM
Mando I understand the receivers weren't open at the time but did you see Long get smoked on the pull up by Abraham?
Posted by: Phins78 | August 24, 2012 at 08:42 PM
2nd round pick Martin looking like an Ireland bust
Posted by: 72perfectstill | August 24, 2012 at 08:42 PM
yg i dont get game here, i was asking
Posted by: bill connors | August 24, 2012 at 08:42 PM
Who was that guy from the Texans that Ireland low balled? He could have really helped right now.
Posted by: JackSparrow | August 24, 2012 at 08:42 PM
Again the dolphins are disciplined this year.
A couple of them pass interference are on the ref's
Posted by: Dashi | August 24, 2012 at 08:42 PM
Monkey Boy mad at me cause everyone is onto his dumb crap.
He should be too cause I keep pointing him out.
Bhwaaaaaaaaaaaa Haaaaaaaaaa Haaaaaaaaaa!!!
Posted by: Coalition To Get Coalition Out Of The Closet | August 24, 2012 at 08:42 PM
THIS (Tannehill) is the 8th BEST PLAYER IN THE DRAFT?
I need medicine, quickly.
Not only has the Dolphin organization become the laughing stock of the NFL, but they do it with PLEASURE.
Tannehill, the 8th player available...Tannehill is already declared the starter?
THIS is what we have to look forward to....anyone who denies that CHAD HENNE ACTUALLY LOOKED BETTER THAN TANNEHILL is just, plain BLIND & LYING!
Tannehill is mediocre...at VERY BEST!
Posted by: UMcanes | August 24, 2012 at 08:42 PM
Dont know what Vernon looks like in practice, but, he has yet to impress me in a game.
Posted by: Yesterday's Gone | August 24, 2012 at 08:42 PM
The defense has been very good. Falcons are loaded. Jones, Douglas, roddy white, Gonzalez, turner, jaquez green
Posted by: Jaison | August 24, 2012 at 08:42 PM
If I'm Atlanta, I'm thinking we're not as good as we think we are because they are supposed to be a legit Super Bowl contender.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | August 24, 2012 at 08:43 PM
PHINSm 78
Make me I don't giove two sheets this be atych gets on my nerves . Just saying.

good stop by Smith
Posted by: tony in miami | August 24, 2012 at 08:43 PM
um henne looked like u as a rookie and he never started a game
Posted by: bill connors | August 24, 2012 at 08:43 PM
Trading Marshall was another bright idea...
Posted by: #1 Dolphin Fan in Montreal | August 24, 2012 at 08:44 PM

Wow, a defensive stop that didnt end in a score. My eyes must be decieving me. LOL
Posted by: Yesterday's Gone | August 24, 2012 at 08:44 PM
YES!
Posted by: Coalition To Get Coalition Out Of The Closet | August 24, 2012 at 08:44 PM
They still have turner in and bush and Thomas are already done??
Posted by: Jaison | August 24, 2012 at 08:44 PM
Smith found his nutz this game!! I like it
Posted by: robbyhernz | August 24, 2012 at 08:44 PM
Well at least the D's looking good!
Posted by: BLAZZIN ACE | August 24, 2012 at 08:44 PM
Tanny's 6-15 with an INT and a fumble.
Posted by: uh oh | August 24, 2012 at 08:45 PM
These games don't matter anyways. Just a preview. Tannehill will be a complete bust once these games start counting.
Posted by: JackSparrow | August 24, 2012 at 08:45 PM

Nothing like a good ole pat on the back from yourself. If no one else does, someone has to, right? LOSER!
The only thing you point out, with every post, is what a waste of space you are. Please, continue to make an as* of yourself.
It's fun for everyone.
Posted by: Monkey Boy | August 24, 2012 at 08:45 PM
defense looks much better this week...that is good!!!
Posted by: superPHIN | August 24, 2012 at 08:45 PM
Now what?
Time to see if Sherman can get a feel for the situation.
Last series called bad
Posted by: Coalition To Get Coalition Out Of The Closet | August 24, 2012 at 08:45 PM
Ms. Ross loves sacks.
Big ones with shaved pubes.
Posted by: Neil's GhosT | August 24, 2012 at 08:46 PM
Mathews in.... Naneee freaking out....
Posted by: robbyhernz | August 24, 2012 at 08:46 PM
Anthony Fasano just dropped his third pass of the game. And yet the Dolphins aren't playing Charles Clay.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | August 24, 2012 at 08:46 PM
Tannehill is PATHETIC!!!
Posted by: CadillacDeville | August 24, 2012 at 08:47 PM
Excellent STs coverage.
Posted by: oscar canosa | August 24, 2012 at 08:47 PM
They better get tanne off the field. If he's the guy, might as well save him as much as you can.
Posted by: JackSparrow | August 24, 2012 at 08:47 PM
Good special teams play! Marlon Moore!
Posted by: redsky | August 24, 2012 at 08:47 PM
