Miami Beats Carolina To Remain Undefeated In NFL Preseason Play
The Miami Dolphins unveiled their version of the wildcat single wing offense for the first time in the NFL preseason and it worked like a charm. Starting QB Chad Pennington went 8 of 11 for 105 yards and a touchdown pass as the Dolphins first team offense played well in a 27-17 victory over the Carolina Panthers. While it is only preseason action, a victory is still a victory and no team likes to go down to defeat in back to back weeks. Carolina will have to pick up the pace if they wish to avoid a substandard NFL season that could result in their quarterback contemplating retirement.
Dolphins coach Tony Sparano said that there weren't any big secrets with his teams unique offensive set:
"There are really no secrets there, but it's good homework for us -- a chance to see what people have been studying during their offseason, and how they want to defend this.
Pennington was also pleased with the productivity of the offense:
"The wildcat went well. Anything we can do to get an edge, I'm all for it."
Ronnie Brown caught Penningtons TD pass and joined in the chorus with his positive assessment:
"We made some strides. We're going in the right direction."
Carolina coach John Fox sounded nonplussed, a surprising tone with a 0-2 team:
"Our first unit looked a little sharper. We're not there yet, but I thought it was an improvement."
Defensive end Julius Peppers was also notably absent of any concrete criticism of his teams play:
"We've got to work on everything. That's what the preseason is for."
After a rough opening week, Panthers starting QB Jake Delhomme was also upbeat in his postgame comments to the media:
"We did better things tonight. It's a process, but we're doing all right."
The Panthers will begin the NFL regular season on Sunday, September 13th at home against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Dolphins will face the Atlanta Falcons at the Georgia Dome to get their regular season slate underway.
