Live Box Score
The Miami Dolphins will host the Atlanta Falcons on Thursday in Orlando at Camping World Stadium in their preseason “dress rehearsal” on national television. Live Now: http://elivestream.online/nfllive/
After playing on the road the first two weeks of the preseason, Miami will be considered the home team in this one.
The Falcons are 2-0 in the preseason after knocking off Cleveland 24-13 last week. Head coach Dan Quinn said the red zone has been an emphasis for the team this week in practice, which is an area they struggled in during the 2015 regular season. Atlanta showed the production of their ground game against the Cleveland Browns, as Devonta Freeman rushed for 42 yards and a touchdown on just four carries.
“The real story was the line of scrimmage,” Falcons coach Dan Quinn said. “For us to have the ability to run the ball like we did, that’s a real plus.”
Quarterback Matt Ryan, wide receiver Julio Jones and running back Devonta Freeman will see less time than others, as Quinn plans to substitute individuals.
The Dolphins are 1-1 after falling 41-14 to Dallas last week. Despite the loss, Miami moved the ball efficiently under quarterback Ryan Tannehill. Tannehill completed 12 of 20 passes for 162 yards and a pair of touchdowns. The Dolphins will be missing starting center Mike Pouncey, who will be out for the remainder of the preseason with a hip injury.
Kickoff is set for 8 p.m. Eastern on NBC. Check back for live updates throughout the game.
