Final Score:

This game has taken on a special meaning for both teams. This is Miami's first time getting their full offensive arsenal (minus tackle Jake Long) onto the field. Watch for how the Dolphins utilize Brandon Marshall and Reggie Bush tonight.

Miami will be looking to get their offensive line the repetitions needed to start gelling as a unit. They will also be looking to confirm Chad Henne's slot as the starting quarterback. They will be looking for the defense to perform better than it did against the Falcons last week.

As for the Panthers, their main story is first overall draft pick Cam Newton, who is getting the start at quarterback for the first time.
