Offense rebounds in exhibition win against Jaguars

The Miami Dolphins offense, which was ineffective last week, finally woke up in a 27-26 preseason win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Chad Henne played for more than a quarter and completed 11 of 14 passes for 151 yards and 2 TDs. Brandon Marshall was the recipient of four of those passes for 65 yards. Tight end Anthony Fasano caught Henne's two TD passes. The running game, specifically Ronnie Brown and Ricky Williams, didn't fare as well. The two running backs combined for 7 carries and 21 yards. Even more distressing was the play of the first team defense. In the first half, the defense gave up 9 of 11 passing to two Jacksonville QBs for 118 yards and a touchdown. With the preseason half over, the Dolphins still need some work to do if they want to be playoff contenders, which I still think they can be this year.
