NFL: OAKLAND (1-2) at MIAMI (0-3) <h3>Culpepper to make return to Miami</h3> Oakland (1-2) at Miami (0-3) Sunday 1:00 pm EDT MIAMI (Ticker) - Daunte Culpepper spent one forgettable seasonwith the Miami Dolphins. Culpepper makes his return to South Florida on Sunday when theOakland Raiders face the Dolphins. A three-time Pro Bowler, Culpepper was acquired by the Dolphinsfrom the Minnesota Vikings following the 2005 campaign. Neverfully recovered from a knee injury, Culpepper played in justfour games for the Dolphins last season. Culpepper's exit from Miami was all but certain after theDolphins acquired Trent Green from the Kansas City Chiefs onJune 6. Days after Green's acquisition, Culpepper surprisingly showed upin minicamp, only to be escorted off the field by teamofficials. He finally was released on June 17. Just over a month later, Culpepper found a new team, inking aone-year contract with the Raiders. Culpepper started the season as a backup to Josh McCown. Butwith McCown suffering from a sore left foot, Culpepper startedthe second half and helped lead the Raiders to a 26-24 victoryover the Cleveland Browns last Sunday. He went an efficient8-of-14 for 118 yards. While the focus will be on Culpepper's return, the Raiders arebeing led by running back LaMont Jordan, who is second in theNFL with 350 rushing yards. The Cam Cameron era is off to a terrible start as the Dolphinsare looking to avoid starting 0-4 for the first time since 2004when they dropped their first six contests. It has been a struggle defensively for the Dolphins, who allow28.0 points per game to rank 26th in the league. They werefifth last season, surrendering 17.7 points per contest. Last Sunday, Ronnie Brown accounted for 211 total yards (112rushing, 99 receiving) and three touchdowns in the Dolphins'31-28 loss to the New York Jets.
