Chad Henne probably wishes he could play every game in Jacksonville.

Eight months after picking apart the Jaguars in the regular season, Henne did it again in a preseason game Saturday night. The Robot completed 11 of 14 passes for 151 yards and two touchdowns in the first half, and the Dolphins beat the Jaguars 27-26 in a game delayed 1 hour, 45 minutes by a thunderstorm.

Henne made Jacksonville's revamped defense look like it needs more tweaking.

"I thought Chad made some good decisions," Dolphins coach Tony Sparano said. "I felt like he had pretty good rhythm."

Henne struggled in the rain and mud last week against Tampa Bay, completing five of 11 passes for 19 yards. He found himself in similar conditions this week, but played considerably longer and better. (Jimmy Johnson approves.)

He was equally efficient in Jacksonville last December, when he completed a franchise-record 17 consecutive passes in a 14-10 victory.

Although Henne was sacked on his first play Saturday — Jaguars newcomers Tyson Alualu and Aaron Kampman combined on the tackle — he rebounded and led the Dolphins (2-0) on three straight scoring drives.

Henne got Miami to the 6-yard line, but Gerald Alexander batted down his third-down pass at the goal line. The Dolphins settled for a field goal, but Henne was just getting started.

He hooked up with Anthony Fasano for a 55-yard TD play on the next possession -- with help from a big block from receiver Brandon Marshall -- then found Fasano again for an 11-yard score. Marshall took out two defenders on the long play, springing Fasano for an untouched sprint to the end zone.

The Beast finished with four catches for 65 yards. He also dropped one, giving him three drops in two preseason games.

"I thought he did a great job out here blocking," Sparano said. "That was really an unselfish play. Those guys have done a good job. We are a little bit more efficient right now, but we have got a ways to go."

Former starter Chad Pennington kept Miami rolling. He found Marshall down the sideline for a 37-yard gain, then hooked up with Ronnie Brown for a 10-yard score with 37 seconds remaining in the first half. That put Miami ahead 24-12.

It was nothing new for Jacksonville.

The Jaguars (0-2) were handled early last week in Philadelphia. The Eagles scored on four of their first five possessions, with the lone miss coming because Michael Vick fumbled near the goal line.

Jacksonville played its opener without defensive starters Daryl Smith, Kampman and Alualu, but all three were present against the Fins. Kampman, the team's top free agent acquisition, and Alualu, the 10th overall pick, made an impact on their first play. They combined to bring down Henne just outside the goal line. Rashad Jennings blocked a punt for a safety to give Jacksonville an early lead.

From there, though, the Dolphins did just about anything they wanted. They racked up 245 yards and 11 first downs in the first half, a far cry from last week's first-team effort of 19 total yards on 15 plays.
