Porter Unimpressed By Patriots QB

DAVIE -- Dolphins linebacker Joey Porter took a verbal shot at New England quarterback Matt Cassel, saying he's unimpressed by the Patriots' new starter.

"If it's not Tom Brady it shouldn't be that hard," said Porter. Cassel took over at quarterback last week, replacing Brady who suffered a season-ending knee injury in the Pats' first game.

Porter said the Dolphins plan to throw everything, including "the kitchen sink" at Cassel.

The Dolphins are seeking their first victory of the season after losing their first two games to the Jets and the Cardinals.
