QB squeeze: Lemon to start for Dolphins
Football Betting Lines
12/27/2006 - Miami, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Miami Dolphins will reportedly start Cleo Lemon at quarterback for Sunday's season-finale against Indianapolis.
The South Florida Sun-Sentinel cited a source as saying Lemon will get the nod ahead of Joey Harrington.
Dolphins head coach Nick Saban said after Monday's 13-10 loss to the New York Jets that both Lemon and Harrington would likely play against the Colts, but he did not specify who would start.
Harrington struggled against the Jets after also having trouble the previous week in a 21-0 loss at Buffalo. He had a 0.0 rating against the Bills and on Christmas night completed just 7-of-15 passes for 42 yards in wet conditions against New York.
After the Dolphins had played six straight quarters without a point, Saban decided to replace Harrington with Lemon to start the second half against the Jets.
Lemon nearly threw an interception on his first series, but settled down and hit on 11-of-16 throws for 104 yards with his first NFL touchdown pass -- a seven-yarder to tight end Randy McMichael that gave Miami a brief 7-3 lead.
Harrington, in his first season with Miami after four years toiling for the Detroit Lions, posted a 5-6 record as the Dolphins' starter after taking over for the injured and ineffective Daunte Culpepper.
The third overall pick of the 2002 draft has completed 57.5 percent of his passes for 2,236 yards with 12 touchdowns and 15 interceptions for the season.
Lemon, in the last two games, has connected on 20-of-30 passes for 202 yards one touchdown and no interceptions.
