Dolphins' running game 'virtually non-existent' so far

The Dolphins' offense under first-year offensive coordinator Bill Lazor has shown a mixed bag during the first two weeks of the preseason. The passing game and tempo have been upgrades from what we've seen last season. However, the running game is virtually non-existent thus far. Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill has completed 75 percent (15-for-20) of his passes and is playing faster and more decisive football. The passing game under Lazor has been sharp. But the offensive line is getting little push in the running game. The Dolphins had minus-5 yards in the first half last week against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and must improve their production on the ground.

Fantasy Impact: 

The offensive line is going to struggle opening holes for Lamar Miller and Knowshon Moreno

Dolphins RB Knowshon Moreno with an opportunity to earn a role

Dolphins RB Knowshon Moreno expects to play in the all-important third preseason game, and should he show enough, he could reshuffle a depth chart that has appeared set since the spring.

Simply by breaking a few tackles in his Dolphins debut, Moreno might earn an expanded role when the games start counting in a couple weeks.

“As I’ve said, he’s been a productive runner,” coach Joe Philbin said of Moreno. “He broke some tackles where he played last year. We’re just looking for, as I said, more consistency in the running game overall.”

It was a point of emphasis in meetings throughout the week. Philbin showed his team pictures from the first two games that illustrated how plays were there to be made, if only the running backs could make someone miss.

Fantasy Impact: 

Miller looked solid atop the depth chart, but he hasn't done much in the preseason (7 carries, 14 yards). Philbin certainly sounds like he's willing to consider moving things around. The Dolphins went out and signed Moreno, so we believe they'll give him every chance to earn a big role in the offense, maybe even take over as the team's RB1.

Dolphins RB Knowshon Moreno (knee) to make preseason debut on Saturday

Dolphins running back Knowshon Moreno will make his preseason debut on Saturday against Dallas, a source told the Palm Beach Post.

Fantasy Impact: 

Moreno was expected to take over as the RB1, but offseason knee surgery and poor conditioning has delayed that competition. Lamar Miller currently sits atop the depth chart, but if Moreno looks good, the backfield could devolve into an ugly RBBC.

Broncos RB Montee Ball (appendectomy) not expected to play until Week 1

While it would be nice for the Denver Broncos to get running back Montee Ball into a preseason game for a few snaps, get him a carry, see him run through some contact, his real target date to be ready to go is still Sept. 7, or the regular-season opener against the Indianapolis Colts.

Ball, who had an appendectomy Aug. 4, returned to the practice field Tuesday and did a little more on Wednesday, but as it stands now the Broncos’ top running back is not expected to play in Saturday night’s preseason game against the Houston Texans. And since the Broncos usually play few, if any, starters in the fourth preseason game, Ball’s most likely return date is still the regular-season opener.

Fantasy Impact: 

We're not worried at all about the injury, though his conditioning might need some work if he doesn't see game action prior to Week 1. Ball had a higher YPC (4.7) than Knowshon Moreno (4.3), but wasn’t quite the weapon in the passing game. Still, his catch percentage (receptions/targets = 74.1%) wasn’t bad for a running back. His play down the stretch (8.5 FP/game in final eight games) is encouraging. He’s locked in as the RB1 in a great offense, so 10+ touchdowns seems likely.
