Falcons vs Dolphins: Start Watch Now


 Even though fans should expect  to see most starters for at least the first half, not everyone will be  in action. The Falcons have already confirmed that longtime kicker Matt  Bryant, who ended up on injured reserve last season with a hamstring  issue and has been held out of several practices, will not take the  field against the Dolphins. Atlanta signed veteran kicker Shayne Graham  Saturday, and Graham will take over kicking duties against the Dolphins. Linebacker Vic Beasley and  punter Matt Bosher have both been working their way back from injuries,  but Dan Quinn anticipates both will play against Miami. For the Dolphins, it's time to  figure out the best course of action after losing center Mike Pouncey  for the remainder of the preseason with a hip injury. Anthony Steen, a  former guard, will step up and play center in a game for the first time  in his NFL career. The Dolphins will also be missing second-round  cornerback Xavien Howard on Thursday. Atlanta's starting offense got  off to a rocky start in Week 1 of the preseason against Washington, but  bounced back against the Browns last week. The team struggled last  season, particularly in the red zone, as a result of adapting to Kyle  Shanahan's offense, and extended playing time against the Dolphins  should provide a better sense of how the unit has settled into that  scheme over the course of this offseason. Letting Matt Ryan and company  get into a rhythm with more snaps should also help. The biggest issue for Atlanta's  defense is, and has been, the pass rush, and the Dolphins' opponents  have sacked Miami's quarterbacks seven times so far in two preseason  games. It presents an opportunity for the Falcons to generate some  pressure on Ryan Tannehill and show some improvement in this area.     Miami's offense improved  against the Cowboys in Week 2 after a lackluster preseason opener  against the Giants. The Tannehill to Kenny Stills connection was solid,  with Tannehill hitting Stills for touchdowns twice in five offensive  series. First-round offensive lineman Laremy Tunsil got the start last  week against the Cowboys, and he should be out there with the starters  once again against the Falcons. For the Dolphins' defense,  players like Julio Jones and Devonta Freeman present a real challenge,  because this unit has had tackling issues. Against the Cowboys, Miami  gave up 433 yards of total offense, 300 of which came in the first half.  There were many missed tackles en route to a 41-14 loss to Dallas, and  Atlanta's explosive players will take advantage if the Dolphins don't  tighten up for Week 3. 

How to watch

Time: 8 p.m. ET Location: Camping World Stadium, Orlando TV: NBC Announcers: Mike Tirico, Cris Collinsworth Online: NFL Game Pass


The  Miami Dolphins will “host” the Atlanta Falcons on Thursday night in a  nationally televised game in Orlando’s Camping World Stadium (previously  the Orlando Citrus Bowl). This is the third preseason game for both  teams, which is typically used as the dress rehearsal game for the start  of the regular season. That will mean the starters for both teams will  likely play throughout the first half, and possibly come back out after  halftime to begin the third quarter.  The Dolphins will be looking  for their defense to respond after a blowout loss to the Dallas Cowboys  last week, especially as they look to shore up the run defense. Miami’s  strength this year should be the defense, but concerns are mounting as  the summer continues and a regular season opener against the Seattle  Seahawks is under three weeks away. 

The offense, meanwhile, is  starting to find their rhythm, but now needs to prove they can do it  consistently and that they can do it against the starting defense for  opposing teams. There are still questions that need to be answered for  Miami’s offense, including position battles at guard (Laremy Tunsil,  Dallas Thomas, Jermon Bushrod, and Billy Turner) and running back (Arian  Foster and Jay Ajayi).
