Miami Dolphins vs. Minnesota Vikings: Three reasons the Dolphins can win, lose in Week 4
The Miami Dolphins show signs of life.

This week, the Dolphins face the 3-0 Vikings, making Miami the 2nd team in NFL […]

The Miami Dolphins fell to the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, dropping to 0-3 as they continue navigating a significant roster rebuild.

Caleb Douglas in danger of missing second straight game for Miami Dolphins
Miami Dolphins rookie wide receiver Caleb Douglas had a debut for the ages — nabbing five passes for 94 yards against the Las Vegas Raiders in week one. Unfortunately, the young player suffered an ankle injury in the fourth-quarter of Miami’s week two loss to the San Francisco 49ers. He was seen in a walking […]
Can Malik Washington step up among Dolphins injury issues?
When a talented player suffers a season-ending injury, you’ll often hear coaches talk about adopting a “next-man-up mentality” and the opportunities available to the others in the position room. We saw that when the Dolphins’ All-Pro running back De’Von Achane tore his ACL against the Chiefs in Week 3, and everyone’s attention went to Ollie […]

Miami Dolphins rookie linebacker Jacob Rodriguez hit the ground running when he reported to the team for rookie minicamp back in May.

Miami Dolphins Discussion: Next Best Edition
Heading into the current NFL season, there was no question in most Miami Dolphins fans’ that given all of the big name deapartures during this past offseason that the team’s best overall player was now clearly running back De’Von Achane.

Dolphins’ Jacob Rodriguez nominated for Rookie of the Week Award
It’s no secret that the Miami Dolphins are relying heavily on their rookies on both sides of the ball this season.

Chiefs vs. Dolphins reactions: Tuesday Thoughts With The Earl
The Dolphins lose again and fall to 0-3. Here are my thoughts after a quick watch of the game. POSITIVES APLENTY IN THE GAME This game went as expected and yet… not as expected. The steady descent to 0-17 appeared to be slowing down as the Dolphins looked like merely a bad team and not […]
Miami Dolphins’ Most Valuable Player | Week Three | Protection is key
The Miami Dolphins didn’t defeat the Kansas City Chiefs in week three — they lost 24-10 — but they held their own against one of the best teams in the National Football League for much of the contest. It’s a moral victory for a team that has struggled through three weeks of the 2026 NFL […]

Miami Dolphins Fans Take On Game Three
While losing 24–10 is certainly a decisive defeat, many Miami Dolphins fans likely expected a much worse outcome against the Kansas City Chiefs. Regardless, this marks another frustrating loss, and the situation is compounded by the news that the Dolphins’ standout best player, De’Von Achane, will miss the remainder of the season with a torn […]
Miami Dolphins excluded from the NFL Coat of Arms
I watched yesterday’s game where the Miami Dolphins fell to the KC Chiefs 10-10 and the NFL referees 14-0. The combined score was KC/NFL Refs 24 – Miami/out of favors 10. I can’t even talk about the Dolphins performance until I unpack the completed slanted officiating. Unless the “anointed team” completely no shows, the refs […]
Fins Up, Fins Down | Winners and losers from Miami Dolphins week three loss
The Miami Dolphins showed signs of life against the Kansas City Chiefs — keeping the deficit to just one score until a late touchdown pass from Patrick Mahomes to Travis Kelce sealed their fate. Unfortunately, “keeping it close” doesn’t amount to a hill of beans in the win/loss column. However, like head coach Jeff Hafley […]

Miami Dolphins running back De’Von Achane left the team’s Week 3 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in the first quarter with a knee injury. He was soon ruled out of a return to the game, then head coach Jeff Hafley said after the game he was not “optimistic” about the injury. On Monday morning, […]

The Miami Dolphins welcomed Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, Ken Walker III and the rest of the star-studded Kansas City Chiefs’ roster to Hard Rock Stadium on Sunday for Miami’s first home game of the 2026 regular season. While Jeff Hafley’s crew fought hard, the firepower possessed by Kansas City’s offense was too much for the […]
