Inactive and live blog here

The announcement of today's inactive tells us the Raiders receiver corps will get better ... and Miami's will get worse.

The Dolphins will be without Anthony Armstrong, who was doubtful with a hamstring injury. He is inactive. Other Miami inactives are Pat Devlin, Michael Egnew, Will Yeatman, Tony McDaniel, Ray Feinga, Daniel Thomas and Pat Devlin.

The Raiders, meanwhile, are getting some good news in that Denarius Moore, who was inactive in their opener with a hamstring injury, is active today. Moore averaged 18.9 yards per receptions last season.

As you may know, my column today is about how this game may determine the direction of either franchise for quite some time. Check it out if you haven't yet.

Another thing: I don't see this being a high-scoring game. Neither offense impresses me.

We will be having a live blog here today. It begins in the comments section at kickoff. Meet me there.

Dansby, late.

[Harmel]

We miss mike Nolan.

[originalorangecrush]

Dansby needs to go, give his spot to someone who wants to play. too much BS talk and no action on field.

[.]

That was such an obvious hold on that screen pass the refs are pure garbage

[dishpan]

If Dansby wants to make the hall of fame, maybe he should start with taking better angles. Moron.

[Yesterday'sGone]

We dont miss Mike Nolan, we miss having a collection of real talent on this defense.

[JackSparrow]

Old reggie would have faked that one guy out during that second series. Looks like he just basically went down after the defender got a hand on him

[Relentless DJs]

Does Tannehill have a 2nd TD drive in him?

[mike d]

Watch the TD again. The receiver was holding bigtime on it. Replacement Refs...

[navydolfaninva]

Watching this on Gamecast is soooo much fun!

[JT]

Clemons blocked himself out of the play with a very bad angle. He sucks

[We Have RB's]

Miller is going to be legit.

[originalorangecrush]

Surprised how many people are in the standds. Good to see!

[IMAWriter]

patience, guys.

[The Biocentric]

Agreed mike d

[We Have RB's]

Hartline is the new Brandon Marshall. LOL!!!

[Yesterday'sGone]

Last couple possessions Reggie Bush was falling back into the old pattern of spending too much time running "laterally".

[The Biocentric]

Miller time. He's looking smooth.

[BLAZZIN ACE]

Damn what happened to bush?(miller looking good though)

[Craig M]

Seems to me 'that 3rd down back' is playing quite well for us.

[We Have RB's]

Bad play by Tannehill.

[IMAWriter]

Throw out out of bounds Tanny

[JackSparrow]

what the hell?

[We Have RB's]

They called an incomplete pass??? Thanks refs.

[The Biocentric]

Incommplete. Bottom line.

[IMAWriter]

Got lucky there

[JackSparrow]

tanne looks hurt actually

[We Have RB's]

Need Clay to step up today.

[Armando Salguero]

THE LIVE BLOG CONTINUES IN THE SECOND QUARTER POST. GO THERE NOW, PLEASE.

[MiamiD20]

That's a fumble but I'll take an u complete pass

[IMAWriter]

Draw play would work against Raider's pass rush

[Armando Salguero]

THE LIVE BLOG CONTINUES IN THE SECOND QUARTER POST. GO THERE NOW.

[We Have RB's]

Now that drive looked like a rookie QB.

[Armando Salguero]

HAD INTERNET PROBLEMS SO THE POST WAS LATE. BUT IT IS UP NOW. LIVE BLOG CONTINUES AT SECOND QUARTER POST.

[flyrodderbob]

Nice play Clay- get hit and lose 4 yards! Second quarter woes continue!!

[mike d]

Oakland Defense starting to play right on the line of scrimmage daring them to go deep.

[Nino]

OK need to step up here - starting at 40yd line. Get it done

[ray]

Did I told you long is not the same player ever since his injuries!!

[.]

Terrible

[flyrodderbob]

Clay again! Terrible! Did I say 2nd quarter?

[Orlando Dolphan]

Jake Long is not the same player. He really hurt us on this drive. He does not deserve top dollar next year.

The Dolphins need to get back to running the football before something bad happens.

[Reg]

patriot games, what a ridiculous comment you made :- i don't need to watch my team cuz they got it locked up. Real fans watch their team not sit in other teams blogs!!!!

[flyrodderbob]

Offense can't play in the second quarter! What is going on?

[Orlando Dolphan]

Bad series for Tanne. I hope that the pressure from the defense is not getting him nervous. I am holding my breath everytime he goes back to throw the ball. That last pass he threw in Reggie's direction was scary.

[Stra8balla]

How awful is this wr core. Hartline is a #1 and bess is a #2. No pressure on Palmer...can't cover the speedy Raider wr's. Looks like a slow to develop blowout in the making.

[JackK]

O.K. My 75 years leave me knowing much more football than I understand. Miami secondary can't guard it's lunch, the pass rush is a figment of imagination, the fix is new talent we can persue in this upcoming draft. Here is where I need help. Please, someone, explain why I should feel good about Sherman.

We start strong but it takes one or two series for the enemy DC to figure us out and a week for Sherman to have a clue. This is Sporano all over again.

What don,t I understand?

[FIRE IRELAND NOW !!!]

FIRE IRELAND

[Stra8balla]

No dynamic Te...get tackled 3 yds short of a 1st down. Fasano is just too slow. Just like our wr core. No separation...no sizzle....no yards. We will score the least pts in the NFL this season. Colts holding down Peterson and winning behind Andrew Luck.

[Stra8balla]

Just run the ball for 3 downs and punt. We would have a better chance of moving the chains. Our passing offense is flat out embarrassing. Tannehill doesn't understand the concept of going thru his progressions.

[Nino]

REGGIE REGGIE REGGIE!!!!!

[Stra8balla]

Thank God for Reggie...he is the only weapon we have. Trying feature Hartline in the passing game...LOL!
