When asked about his approach the the Miami Dolphins' upcoming preseason game, head coach Joe Philbin said they're treating it a bit like a real game, though the schedule won't play out exactly like it would during the regular season.

"To a large degree. It's not totally, but to a large degree, yes. Today, for the players, is like a Monday. For the coaches, it's kind of like a Monday and a Tuesday. We're combining things because we got back so late from Carolina."
