| Turnovers Doom Dolphins In 19-7 Loss To Falcons | | |
Matt Ryan threw two touchdown passes for the Falcons while the player taken two spots ahead of him in the 2008 NFL Draft, No. 1 overall Jake Long, had one of his worst days, allowing two sacks, several pressures and being part of an offensive line that couldn't make running room against a young defense with six new starters. The Dolphins turned the ball over four times en route to a 19-7 loss at Atlanta which was their sixth loss in a season opener in seven seasons. The Dolphins avoided the first opening game shutout in franchise history when Chad Pennington found Ricky Williams along the right sideline for a nine-yard touchdown with 3:21 left in the game but by then the Dolphins were in desperation mode and the Falcons defense looked to be coming home eased up.
