Osweiler Shines As Dolphins Close Preseason With 34-7 Drubbing Of Atlanta

ATLANTA (CBSMiami) – There’s an old saying that goes ‘it’s not how you start, it’s how you finish.’

Following three straight losses to open the preseason, the Miami Dolphins finished their exhibition schedule strongly with Thursday’s 34-7 win over the Atlanta Falcons.

It was a game that only featured one player on Miami’s projected starting lineup, and that was rookie linebacker Jordan Baker who was likely being given as many snaps as possible before officially beginning his NFL career in 10 days against Tennessee.

Much of the interest in this game surrounded the battles among players who were fighting for a job, whether it be a second-team position or just a spot on the final roster.
