NFL Game Summary - Atlanta at Miami

Miami, FL (Sports Network) - Ryan Tannehill threw his second touchdown pass with 38 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter, sending Miami to a 27-23 win over the Atlanta Falcons in the Dolphins' home opener.

Atlanta kicker Matt Bryant, perfect on his first three field goal attempts, missed a 35-yarder wide right that would have given the Falcons a six-point lead with 4:46 to play.

Tannehill then led the Dolphins on a 13-play drive that ended with Dion Sims' one-handed, over-the-shoulder grab from a yard out off play-action.

Miami safety Jimmy Wilson picked off Atlanta quarterback Matt Ryan to seal the win.
