NFL Preseason Week 3 games continue as the Atlanta Falcons and Miami Dolphins square off at the Sun Life Stadium in Miami on Saturday, August 29.
Atlanta is currently 1-1 in this year's preseason following their 31-24 win against the Tennesse Titans in Week 1 and a 30-22 loss to the New York Jets in Week 2.
Matt Ryan and the rest of the Falcons' starters are playing great, however, so there were no worries from head coach Dan Quinn, as per ESPN.
The Dolphins are even worse in the preseason with a 0-2 record, but head coach Joe Philbin is also unperturbed as he merely utilizes these games to prepare his starters and to learn more about his bench.
Miami lost to the Chicago Bears in Week 1, 27-10, then had a by-the-skin-of-the-teeth defeat against the Carolina Panthers in Week 2.
Despite that, Ryan Tannehill was excellent in the game against the Panthers, finishing 12 of 15 passes for 102 yards and a touchdown, via SB Nation.
Philbin is tired of two consecutive losses and will go for the win this weekend.
Prediction: Dolphins win, 24-14
