Falcons vs Dolphins Preseason Preview
The second preseason game has arrived for the Falcons and Dolphins, who have become familiar with each other through the week. Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan and Dolphins skipper Brian Flores have already been acquainted as former teammates during their college days at Boston College. Ryant was a red-shirt freshman while Flores was a senior linebacker.
“Brian was kicking my ass when I was on scout team,” Ryan joked, per the Falcons’ official site. “He was a good player back then. As soon as he went to New England as a scout, with how professional he always was – he’s quiet, a hard worker and a good teammate. He was good to me as a freshman coming in. I’m happy for him. He has worked hard to get to this position and deserves everything that comes his way.”
Flores had some good things to say about Ryan, who went on to be the No. 3 overall pick in 2018.
“I was a senior when he was a freshman. He was a very good player right off the bat. He was carving us up as a scout team player, so we wanted him out of there and that’s a true story,” said Flores.
The joint practices have been important, with teams seeing different looks and different faces with the regular season rapidly approaching.
“They stress you defensively, with your rules,” Ryan said. “They do a good job. They got us a few times. We had a few plays on our end that we did well. This is what this time of year is all about, to see what we can do, what we can’t do and what we need to clean up.”
Falcons first-year head coach Arthur Smith came away pleased from the joint practices.
“This is really good work for us,” Smith said. “(Thursday), we’ll see how we come back and respond. I thought it was a very productive day in all three phases (offense, defense and special teams).”
The Falcons are not expected to play many of their starters against the Dolphins. Miami would like to get quarterback Tua Tagovailoa taking more shots downfield, so the preseason might be a good time to find his rhythm.
“I think it’s something he’s placed an emphasis on,” Flores said. “We’ve placed an emphasis on not pushing the ball downfield, but taking advantage of those opportunities if they’re there. But like always, we want to have good fundamentals, good techniques, good mechanics, go through his progression. And if it’s there and it’s open, or we can throw him open, then take a shot. We’re not going to make them if we don’t throw them. So I think he’s taking more shots downfield and hopefully, he’s gaining more confidence and can make some of those throws.”
The Dolphins are a 4.5-point favorite for the matchup, with the spread set at 37.5 points.
