The Miami Dolphins didn’t look too good last night but the end result was good as they won the game.  The Dolphins offense just couldn’t get much going against the stingy Jaguars defense as they got almost all of their offense from their 2nd and 3rd string running backs last night.  Trent Green still looked lost as he only completed 6 of 15 passes for 60 yards with a pick-off.  Cleo Lemon looked pretty sharp when he entered the game completing 5 of 6 passes for 56 yards.  Rookie John Beck was mostly handing the ball off when he came in as he hit 2 of 3 passes for 23 yards.  Ronnie Brown had a rough time last night as he carried the ball 8 times and could only muster 8 yards.  Jesse Chatman was the main man for the Dolphins last night as he carried the ball 6 times for 88 yards (14.7 ypc) with a 75-yard TD run.  Patrick Cobbs followed Chatman and he ran the ball well also carrying it 7 times for 34 yards (4.9 ypc) with a TD.  Derek Hagan was the Fins leading receiver with 3 grabs for 47 yards.  The Dolphins need to do a better job of sustaining drives as they only had possession of the football for 24:01 of the game.  That will wear down the defense if they don’t get better soon.

The Dolphins defense was in bend but don’t break mode last night.  They did a fine job on run defense as the Jaguars ran the ball 29 times for 59 yards (2.0 ypc) last night.  The pass defense was not too good last night however, as the Jags completed 27 of 39 passes for 296 yards.
