Miami Dolphins

DAVIE, Fla. — There's nothing flashy about Chad Henne. Not his appearance: The Miami Dolphins quarterback has sported a military-style crew cut since grade school. Not his statistics: He's completing 61.6 percent of his passes, throwing for 4,614 yards and 20 touchdowns in the 24 games he has played in 2 1/2 seasons. Some NFL quarterbacks produce those numbers in a single season. And certainly not his mentality. "It's my job to lose," Henne said earlier this season of being the quarterback this regime has built its entire three-year rebuilding project around.

The Ravens filled their void at back running back, agreeing to a deal with Ricky Williams. The former Heisman Trophy winner ran for 673 yards and two touchdowns for the Miami Dolphins last season. Williams, though, totaled 1,121 yards and 11 touchdowns in 2009. "He gives us a proven playmaker, outstanding runner and outstanding receiver and outstanding pass protector," offensive coordinator Cam Cameron said. "I know he has a big-time chance of helping us. " Williams, who is 5 feet 10, 230 pounds, takes over for Willis McGahee, who was cut by the Ravens and later signed with the Denver Broncos.

Cleveland 13, Miami 10 Miami, FL (Sports Network) - Phil Dawson kicked the game-winning field goal with time running out, following a late interception of Chad Henne, to lift the Cleveland Browns to a 13-10 victory over the Miami Dolphins. With just over a minute remaining, the Dolphins were deep in their own territory and not having much success. The game seemed destined for overtime, but Henne's pass was blocked and bounced to Browns defensive back Mike Adams. Adams returned the ball to the two-yard line, and after Cleveland knelt the ball three times to run the clock down, Dawson kicked a 23-yard try through the uprights to give the Browns (5-7)

Maryland cornerback Nolan Carroll, who suffered a broken leg in the first game of the season, was drafted in the fifth round (145th overall) by the Miami Dolphins. The senior captain missed the rest of the season, and many observers point to his loss as a reason for the Terps' 2-10 season and shoddy pass defense. Carroll missed the NFL Combine, but was impressive during Maryland's Pro Day in March for NFL scouts. He posted the top marks in the 40-yard dash (4.39), pro agility drill (4.21)

Ray Rice busted out some dance moves while walking to the huddle, just like the ones he used to elude the Miami Dolphins all afternoon. The shaking and wiggling from the Ravens' precocious running back shouldn't come as a surprise. The fact he could do it with about five minutes left certainly should. After failing to hold fourth-quarter leads the previous two games, Rice and the Ravens regained their finishing touch in a 26-10 thumping of the spitting mad Dolphins.

It's time for the Ravens to introduce the Miami Dolphins to a term that they probably haven't heard this year. Road kill. The Dolphins seem to have found a comfort zone on the road, as evidenced by their 4-0 record away from home and their inexplicable inability to register a victory at Dolphins Stadium. It's a highly unusual dichotomy which needs to be corrected on Sunday at M&T Bank Stadium. The oddsmakers obviously aren't impressed. They've installed the Ravens as a 5 1/2-point favorite to come off their bye week and show the Dolphins what it's like to play in a truly hostile environment — and I'm not just talking about the decibel level on the field.

When the cheering is replaced by silence or even boos, the Miami Dolphins know they're in control. This season, the Dolphins are 4-0 on the road, turning opposing stadiums into destinations as intimidating and forbidding as rose gardens and amusement parks. So when Miami visits M&T Bank Stadium on Sunday for a showdown with the Ravens , quieting the fans will be part of the objective. "That feels good," Dolphins running back Ronnie Brown said during a conference call with Baltimore media Wednesday.

Doubts may have been raised about the speed of his recovery, but Donte' Stallworth's determination to return after the Ravens' bye week hasn't wavered. "It's going good," Stallworth said of his rehabilitation a couple of weeks ago. "I'm making progress every day. I feel like I'm right on schedule, and I'm feeling pretty good. So I'm looking forward to getting in after that bye week. That was the initial target date, and that's still the target date. Hopefully, everything goes as planned.

The outstretched arms of Joey Haynos reached toward the ceiling of the small, dark room in Gossett Team House on Maryland's campus last month. The Miami Dolphins tight end, joined by about 25 Terps football players, moved his right arm slowly down to his right foot, while simultaneously lifting his left leg in the air as a man about half his size calmly instructed him to "get the left butt to lift up. " Haynos, a 6-foot-8, 270-pound tight end...
