The Miami Dolphins did not look good on offense but they still won this game because of the D.  Chad Pennington started this game and he completed 4 of 7 passes for 38 yards.  Chad Henne followed Pennington and he completed 7 of 11 passes for 94 yards with 1 TD pass and 1 interception.  Rookie Pat White struggled as he finished up this game.  He completed only 2 of 7 passes for 14 yards with a pickoff.  He also rushed for 20 yards on six carries (3.3 ypc).  Lex Hilliard led the Fins’ in rushing in this game with 42 yards on 9 carries (4.7 ypc).  Ricky Williams pitched in with 10 carries for 31 yards (3.1 ypc) in this game.  Rookie WR Patrick Turner caught 3 passes for 33 yards (11.0 avg) and Ernest Wilford only caught 1 pass but it went for a 33-yard TD.  The Dolphins finished up with 118 yards rushing (3.2 ypc) and 139 passing yards in this game.  They will need a better effort than that to win when the games begin to count.

Linebacker William Kershaw led a great effort by the Fins’ defense with 5 tackles.  The Dolphins held the Jaguars to 282 yards of total offense (66 rushing, 216 passing) in this game.
