football Chris Campbell forced it and Miami comes up with it it looked like Ed Reed number 20 the All-American came up with the football you called it Chris Campbell look like number 48 out of that linebacker spot the strong side forces the fumble and Miami F fans have something to cheer about a big turnover by the defense you see the running back right there loses the football as he goes to the ground DJ WIlliams also around the pile I'm not sure who got it everybody's grabbing for it at the end but Miami does have it you see the official right there signaling for that defense Ed re number 20 came up with the recovery he came away from the pile so Miami with the turnover has it first and 10 at the ruers 40 scrimmage pump fake wide deep down the sideline Andre Johnson touchdown Miami a 40 yd strike from Ken dorsy to Andre Johnson as he beat Tony Barry in the Kings leaded six to nothing Ken dorsy was licking his chops he abled at the line of scrimmage to a pump and go he's the most excited guy on the football field he looked to the wide side first and when he came back to the short side nobody was around the fresh the young wide receiver number five Andre Johnson the sophomore you see dorsy couldn't believe his eyes when he saw him almost 10 yards beond on the cornerback and Andre Johnson that's probably the easiest touchdown he'll have all season long Johnson picks up his first touchdown of the year the second of his career we'll be right back on Fox sportset after this Cubit pitches to Jones fake reverse Jones still has the football and DJ WIlliams brings him down for a loss of three a nice job by Mike rump to seal off the outside letting DJ WIlliams make the tackle number 17 DJ WIlliams runs this thing down after the fake reverse watch DJ keep his feet Mike rump

number six going down the middle on special team for a touchdown great job by Philip Buchanan in a couple great blocks it looked like Kell winow Jr also with a big block down the middle of the football field you see everybody working hard they've been doing that all afternoon on special teams it just takes a little time for Philip Buchanan to pick a whole great block there by number 93 John
