The Dolphins' formula for winning football game? Run the ball. Play good defense. Avoid mistakes.
Today's Miami inactives speaks to that idea.
Firstly, the inactives are Marlon Moore, Michael Egnew, Nate Garner, Will Yeatman, Pat Devlin, Rishard Matthews, Ray Feinga, Tony McDaniel.
So the Dolphins will have four running back active today, if you include Marcus Thigpen in that group. That speaks to the team's intentions of running, running, running.
And there is only onedefensive player inactive.
The part about no turnovers? That's up to them.
The Dolphins are wearing all white today. Again.
There's a live blog brewing here today. We'll start in the comments section below and every quarter, I'll post an update and we'll continue in the comments section of the update.
Join me there at kickoff.
When was the last time we had opening drive TD's on consecutive games?

they can't do nothing.

Dolphins are dominating the line of scrimage so far. Reggie may run for 150 yards today.
Posted by: Orlando Dolphan | September 23, 2012 at 01:14 PM
Philbin has made more improvement to this team through 3 weeks than fist pumper did in 4 years!!!
Posted by: We Have RB's | September 23, 2012 at 01:14 PM
Fast paced!!!!
Hit him dead in the Mouth!!!!!
1st Rushing TD for Thomas. Now all our RB's have TD's. Just need to feed Lane next time from the Goalline Nothing Fancy.
7-0. Yep, Looking nice. Love Philbin and the No-Huddle!!!!
Today will be our coming out party!!
All the Practice is finally paying off!!!!

This is how you get fans back to home games!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by: Yesterday's Gone | September 23, 2012 at 01:15 PM
Nice job all around on the INT and punching it in for a TD feeling pretty good. Lets see how "Tiny Hands Sanchez" responds..
Posted by: mike d | September 23, 2012 at 01:15 PM
Mando, if Johnny Greer was still a zebra (he seemed tom be at every Fins/Jets game) HE would have called it, or holding.
I still remember a game about 10 years ago, Monday night, when he called a hold on a 1 yard TD run...there's not even enough TIME to hold.
Posted by: IMAWriter | September 23, 2012 at 01:15 PM
Nice Miami!!!! Keep pressing!
Posted by: Ohio Dolfan | September 23, 2012 at 01:16 PM
I think a sunami swamped Revis Island!
Posted by: h8dpats | September 23, 2012 at 01:16 PM
Yep
Posted by: klndry | September 23, 2012 at 01:16 PM
Out toughing them fools! Great signn no penalties on O! Great kicking game!
Posted by: Martin | September 23, 2012 at 01:16 PM
7pts and a turnover, who the hell are these Miami Dolphins? WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by: Yesterday's Gone | September 23, 2012 at 01:16 PM
You are correct, IMAWriter, Greer hates the Dolphins.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | September 23, 2012 at 01:16 PM
Mando what was you saying about IF Revis plays?
Posted by: Coalition To Get Coalition Out Of The Closet | September 23, 2012 at 01:16 PM
ST's chipping in. LOL
Posted by: Yesterday's Gone | September 23, 2012 at 01:17 PM
gotta keep pressing though.
Don't let up
Posted by: Ohio Dolfan | September 23, 2012 at 01:17 PM
Dalton DUMB mistake.....
1 yard INT for a TD....
Posted by: Kris | September 23, 2012 at 01:17 PM
Bush flattened Revis Island!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by: Yesterday's Gone | September 23, 2012 at 01:17 PM
"Dolphins got away with a false start onthat TD run."
You're a glass half empty kind of guy aren't you???? Let us fans enjoy that Philbin has returned to playing at home as an ACTUAL advantage & not an excuse to come out flat for two years.
Posted by: We Have RB's | September 23, 2012 at 01:17 PM
I have there British studio commentary (highlights. They are pretty good.)
Posted by: IMAWriter | September 23, 2012 at 01:17 PM
Wildcat time.Sanches on the sideline.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | September 23, 2012 at 01:17 PM
That's the way to start a game!! Run the ball with Reggie all day and wear them down. I could have drove my car through that hole on the line. Hard not to get too excited when we play like this. Keep it up guys.
Posted by: MarkAllen | September 23, 2012 at 01:18 PM
Don't run on our boys!!!
Posted by: Martin | September 23, 2012 at 01:18 PM
Aramando,
Youre hispanic and mispelled Sanchez(Sanches) LOL
Posted by: Yesterday's Gone | September 23, 2012 at 01:18 PM
Jones just KILLED Greene!!! Ha!!! I love it!!!
Posted by: We Have RB's | September 23, 2012 at 01:18 PM
Wild Cat....LOL....

Posted by: Kris | September 23, 2012 at 01:18 PM
Let's keep it Up!!
We need 4 qtrs of this!!
We are on our way back Ladies and Gentlemen!!!
Posted by: Dashi (MHM I BE) | September 23, 2012 at 01:18 PM
We're a play behind on this first row crap!
Posted by: Yesterday's Gone | September 23, 2012 at 01:19 PM
We actually look like a SOLID NFL team today.
Posted by: We Have RB's | September 23, 2012 at 01:19 PM
Refs want the Jests to win this game, cause the Jests can't do it any other way
Posted by: MiamiD20 | September 23, 2012 at 01:20 PM
Stacked up to one side and run it to the other.... That's Sparano for you..
Posted by: jtlawson5 | September 23, 2012 at 01:20 PM
so far we have two phantom calls against our dbs
Posted by: nyfinfan | September 23, 2012 at 01:21 PM
We are DEFINITELY the more physical team right now.
Posted by: We Have RB's | September 23, 2012 at 01:21 PM
Only first downs allowed on penalties!!! Fins def the more physical team!!!
Posted by: robbyhernz | September 23, 2012 at 01:22 PM
Misi in da house!
Posted by: Yesterday's Gone | September 23, 2012 at 01:22 PM
The defense is swarming and hitting hard...not mention Revis island lost an inch of height when he got pancaked by Bush.
Posted by: MarkAllen | September 23, 2012 at 01:22 PM

Posted by: Kris | September 23, 2012 at 01:22 PM
Jests so far are relying on the refs to move the ball.. let's get a stop
Posted by: Catch22 | September 23, 2012 at 01:22 PM
Is it hot
Posted by: robbyhernz | September 23, 2012 at 01:22 PM
YG,so I'm not allowed to have a typo because I'm Hispanic? English people don't every misspell English words?
Posted by: Armando Salguero | September 23, 2012 at 01:23 PM
The Jets want to run & we know that. This isn't rocket science....And Shonn Green is not Walter Payton.
Posted by: We Have RB's | September 23, 2012 at 01:23 PM
Yo, That's the Same Head REF from the Carolina Game.
THE ONE WHO WAS LAUGHING EVERYTIME HE CALLED PASS INTERFERENCE ON THE FINS. Look at him. Watch our Secondary get called for a bunch of Cheap Call's.
We will still win today. But that ref is Betting on the Game.
Posted by: Dashi (MHM I BE) | September 23, 2012 at 01:23 PM
So we got to play the refs too?
Great we can whip Dat a ss too!
Posted by: Coalition To Get Coalition Out Of The Closet | September 23, 2012 at 01:23 PM
Hot and muggy at stadium today?
Posted by: robbyhernz | September 23, 2012 at 01:23 PM
Sanchez is a joke as an NFL starter. Defense should have been off the field already.
Posted by: We Have RB's | September 23, 2012 at 01:24 PM
raining here now. Light.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | September 23, 2012 at 01:24 PM

Good thing cuz Rex needs a shower, can smell him all the way up here in Va!
Posted by: h8dpats | September 23, 2012 at 01:26 PM
So far so great.
Posted by: klndry | September 23, 2012 at 01:26 PM
Sparano is such an inept coach. I love seeing this happening to the jets though and not the dolphins. What a dumb idea to hire tony..
Posted by: Richard3000 | September 23, 2012 at 01:26 PM
Why did we call timeout?
Posted by: Ohio Dolfan | September 23, 2012 at 01:26 PM
Interesting in their part, but crappy.
