Dolphins win rain-soaked preseason opener

The Dolphins starters played poorly in the rain, but the backups pulled out a 10-7 victory against the Tampa Bay Bucs in the preseason opener for both teams. Offensively, Chad Henne completed 5 of 11 passes for just 19 yards. New #1 receiver Brandon Marshall had no catches, dropping both passes that went to him. The only bright spot was Ronnie Brown's 20 yards on 5 carries, showing that he has recovered from surgery. On defense, the starters played better than their offensive counterparts but yielded a 60-yard touchdown drive to the Bucs. Thankfully, the team has a few more weeks to improve before the regular season begins.
