JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Ryan Tannehill played a little longer and a lot smoother in his second preseason game. The Jacksonville Jaguars can only hope Blaine Gabbert will do the same. Tannehill completed 5 of 9 passes for 75 yards, including a 22-yard touchdown pass to newcomer Dustin Keller, and the Dolphins thumped the Jaguars 27-3 in a preseason game Friday night. The Dolphins (1-1) managed just one first down in their first three drives, but Tannehill got things rolling late in the first quarter. He connected with Keller for a 24-yard gain and then found the former New York Jets tight end five plays later for the score. Safety Chris Prosinski got turned around on the play, the first of many mistakes for the rebuilding Jaguars. "He protected the ball well, but lets face it, the offence wasnt all that clean," Dolphins coach Joe Philbin said. "It wasnt until the fourth possession that they started playing better. But early on, it was a little dicey." Jacksonville finished with four turnovers: two interceptions and two fumbled punt returns. Maybe more unsettling for first-year coach Gus Bradley was what happened on the sideline in the second quarter. Receiver Justin Blackmon, sitting out the game while recovering from groin surgery, got into an argument with Dolphins cornerback Nolan Carroll. The verbal tiff escalated and included several teammates, getting so heated that it got Bradleys attention. "It was a war of words," Carroll said. "I dont know him. They started talking trash, so I talked trash back to them. He kept doing it and kept doing. It was more than one play and he kept talking. I decided to be the bigger man and just let it go. I saw Maurice Jones-Drew get into it also, so they all tried to join up and gang me. "But thats just the spirit of the game. Thats all it is. Its competition. I didnt talk to him afterward. I dont know him. No hard feelings as far as Im concerned." Jones-Drew eventually stepped in and escorted Blackmon to the locker room. Blackmon returned for the start of the season half and apologized to Bradley. Nonetheless, he was in Bradleys office after the game. Regardless of the circumstances, its certainly not an ideal situation for Blackmon. The receiver is suspended for the first four games of the regular season for violating the leagues substance-abuse policy. The suspension stems from two alcohol-related arrests in the past three years. Blackmon has spent the past two months trying to prove hes changed and more mature. "I just told him, I said, spend your time encouraging our guys and dont get caught up in that," Bradley said. "Why add that to the game already. Youre falling into that. Thats not what we want on the sideline. He understands, but it still happened. Well talk about it as a team and say thats not who we are or what we want to become, so lets take it out of our game." Gabbert, meanwhile, was hoping to make a strong impression in the teams preseason opener. Bradley selected Gabbert as the starter Thursday, saying he earned it after showing poise and progress in training camp. But Gabberts 2013 debut looked a lot like his first two regular seasons. He completed 5 of 10 passes for 19 yards, with an interception. He didnt get much help, though. Rookie receiver Ace Sanders and fullback Will Taufoou dropped passes, and rookie right tackle Luke Joeckel had his hands full with Cameron Wake. The ball off Taufoous hands landed in cornerback Nolan Carrolls arms for an interception. "Its preseason, so we are still trying to sharpen up things," Jaguars tight end Marcedes Lewis said. "We are trying to see what we are actually good at and what stuff we need to sharpen up. Its a lot of trial and error still going on. Its an ongoing process. We are working out the kinks." The Dolphins, coming off a 24-20 loss to Dallas in the Hall of Fame game on Sunday, made it 14-0 on Jonas Grays 1-yard run in the second quarter. After giving his starters just 10 snaps against the Cowboys, Philbin gave them more work Friday. It included receiver Mike Wallace, who didnt have a catch or a target in his first game since signing a $60 million, five-year contract. He missed the preseason opener because of a groin injury. Former Dolphins quarterback Chad Henne, competing with Gabbert for Jacksonvilles starting job, was slightly sharper than his teammate. Henne completed 8 of 11 passes for 87 yards. He worked some with the first-team offensive line, but finished up with the second unit. Both quarterbacks played without three of the offences top weapons. Jones-Drew, who is recovering from foot surgery, sat out as a precaution. Eight others, including starting receivers Cecil Shorts III (calf) and Blackmon, also were held out for Jacksonville.Medhi Benatia Jersey .

Johns is embracing the changes though he doesnt know if he will be behind center when Virginia opens Bronco Mendenhalls coaching tenure against Richmond on Sept. 3.After spring practice, Mendenhall declined to name Johns or fellow senior Connor Brewer the starter, and the program has added former East Carolina quarterback Kurt Benkert as a transfer. Benkert, who has two years of eligibility remaining and can play right away, might be more mobile than either Johns or Brewer -- a factor Mendenhall said he wants in a quarterback -- and is familiar with the offensive system the Cavaliers will use.Johns is not letting any of the uncertainty knock him off course.Im good. Im just taking it one day at a time and putting one foot in front of the other and trying to stay in my lane, he said Friday. When you get caught up with everything, thats when it really hurts you and I just try to focus on what I can do to help this team get better and let the chips fall where they may.That means maintaining his leadership in the weight room, too. Frank Wintrich, the teams director of football performance, or strength and conditioning coaches, guides them through intense, body-changing workouts.Were getting pushed every day to new limits physically, mentally and just as a team, Johns said.Mendenhall promised when he was introduced that Virginiaas players would work harder than they ever thought they could.dddddddddddd. Wintrich and Mendenhall were already on the same page in that regard when they teamed up last year at BYU and then came east to Charlottesville together.Like the head coach, Wintrich was delighted that the Cavaliers embraced, rather than shied away from, the high standard. Only a handful of players opted to leave the football program, and none of them were on scholarship.The leadership of Johns and others has been crucial, Wintrich said, even after his job status became murky.Real testament to the kid, Wintrich said. Outstanding leadership, outstanding buy-in. His motivation and his energy havent waned one bit.Johns credits a changed attitude program-wide, and said the team is closer than ever before not only because they have had to work so hard together, but because of the excitement brewing that better results will be their reward in the fall.In the spring, when some players had one last chance on a Saturday morning to earn the right to practice by completing a series of runs within a proscribed time, the rest of the team showed up to cheer them on.And when the freshman recruits, on campus for nearly two weeks now, had their first scheduled workouts with Wintrich and his staff on Monday, about 50 of the veteran players were there offering encouragement.The culture is completely different, and its very exciting, Johns said.Even if he doesnt know what his fate will be in the fall.
