Phinsider Victory Of The Week Open Thread & Discussion Vol. 691
Happy Friday, everyone! As we wrap up another long work week, at least for most of us, we would love to hear about your “Victory of the Week.” Whether it’s a big milestone, a professional breakthrough, or a small personal win—related to our Miami Dolphins or life in general—please share your successes, big or small, […]
Miami Dolphins review: 5 Things I Think I Think About Week 2
Week 1 made me think, “OK, we lost, but maybe we’ll be better than people think.” Week 2 ground that idea into dust and already has me regretting my six-win prediction. Here’s my perhaps less-than-sanguine take on our team after Week 2. Not all of the Dolphins’ problems are due to youth. Do you remember […]
Dolphins’ Chop Robinson to start wearing Guardian Cap after latest concussion
Miami Dolphins third-year pass rusher Chop Robinson missed last Sunday’s loss to the San Francisco 49ers due to a concussion he suffered during practice leading up to the game. According to Robinson, it was his fifth documented concussion — third as a member of the Dolphins. On Thursday, speaking with the South Florida media, Robinson […]
Three Reasons With The Earl: Miami Dolphins Hope, Concern Week 3
The 2026 season looks rough for the Miami Dolphins. They were outclassed against an NFC contender and now turn around to face Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs. There is not going to be much hope to be found this season. But dagnabbit, I will squeeze what little hope I can out of this team. Just […]
Miami Dolphins news: Home opener, injury updates, rebuild outlook

Miami Dolphins Fans On Current “Team To Beat”
Many NFL teams are built by their front offices to take on and defeat a specific team, usually the most dominant team over a period of time in their division or conference, hopefully on the way to a championship. Even when that is not what the front office is thinking as it builds its roster, […]
Miami Dolphins news: Veteran patience, injury updates, Austin Jackson ‘got to perform better’
The Miami Dolphins tore down their roster in the offseason, choosing to reset the salary cap and move on from several veterans in favor of a youth movement.

Miami Dolphins Discussion: Week 3 Game Vs Kansas City Chiefs Predictions Edition
I suspect that, as ugly as Sunday’s game against the San Francisco 49ers was for our Miami Dolphins, it’s unlikely to get much better overnight, especially with the Kansas City Chiefs coming to town this weekend. I like that a lot of you expected this season to start out this way, and I will be […]
Chop Robinson returns to practice in first Dolphins vs. Chiefs injury report Week 3
The Miami Dolphins received good news on Wednesday as top edge rusher Chop Robinson practice fully as he recovered from a concussion sustained during practice last week.

Miami Dolphins news: Kadyn Proctor receives advice, tryouts, and avoiding blowouts
The Miami Dolphins are a young, developing team in 2026 as they reset the roster and build toward a more competitive future.

Miami Dolphins Discussion: Team To Beat Edition
In the NFL, you are either one of the top teams fighting each week to stay there, be it at the top of your division or conference, or one of the “lesser” teams fighting to get through the season. The “lesser teams” generally set their sights on one team they are working to catch and […]
Dolphins bring in kickers for tryouts amidst Riley Patterson struggles
Miami Dolphins kicker Riley Patterson isn’t off to the greatest start in 2026. He missed field goal tries in both week one against the Las Vegas Raiders and week two against the San Francisco 49ers.

Miami Dolphins fan confidence: Week 3 survey
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NFL. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Dolphins fans and fans across the country.

Miami Dolphins’ Most Valuable Player | Week Two | Someone has to win
The Miami Dolphins were steamrolled in Northern California against the San Francisco 49ers this past Sunday. The team looked somewhat promising in the first half — moving the ball well against a stout Niners defense. They trailed by just 8 points at halftime — merely a single touchdown, plus two-point conversion away from making it […]
Pattern Degradations and Bad Dresses; Miami Dolphins stumble against 49ers
Wow! I wrote about pattern recognition last week and boy did I see some patterns. Bad ones. My grandmother was a seamstress by trade and watching her work when I was boy was very educational. She said “Paul, cut out this pattern section for a dress or blouse and then I will sew them together […]
Miami Dolphins Week 2 reactions: Tuesday Miami Thoughts With The Earl
That was… I mean… well… what can I say about that? I had zero expectations about a win, but I hoped it would be somewhat competitive. It was not. That just plain sucked. That is all. Thank you for reading. Oh, you’re still here? In that case, I’ll hit on a few things I noticed […]
Miami Dolphins news: Rebuilding, 49ers game reactions, and new linebacker signed
The Miami Dolphins’ 2026 season has started with two straight losses by an average of 18 points.

Miami Dolphins Fans Sound Off On Game Two
Following yesterday’s predictably ugly game between our Miami Dolphins and the San Francisco 49ers, I asked: What is your overall take on today’s second game of the season for your Miami Dolphins under the new coaching staff and with the overhauled roster? What are the positive and negative takeaways from this afternoon’s game, both as […]
Six Questions That Will Define the Dolphins’ 2026 Season
Before the season opener against the Raiders, Dolphins head coach Jeff Hafley revealed that success this year won’t be defined by wins and losses: “I want to win everything that we do. I’ve said that over and over. But at the same time, we need to make sure that this foundation and the process is […]
Miami Dolphins sign defender from Buffalo Bills practice squad
The Miami Dolphins have lost two straight regular season contests to open the Jon-Eric Sullivan and Jeff Hafley era with an 0-2 record.

Fins Up, Fins Down | Winners and losers from Miami Dolphins week two loss
Hello darkness, my old friend… We all knew this was going to be a rough season for our Miami Dolphins. Maybe we didn’t realize just how tough it was going to be. On Sunday, the Miami Dolphins took on the San Francisco 49ers, and despite hanging in there in the first half — they were […]

The Miami Dolphins lost to the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday.

Miami looked like a young team trying to set a foundation, something that will […]
Miami Dolphins Discussion: Post-Game Two Takeaways
Week one didn’t go the way any Miami Dolphins fan hoped, even if the fanbase and media expected it. Here’s to hoping this afternoon’s game went better, no matter how unlikely that is as I write this post earlier in the day. Even though a win seems more than unlikely at this point, I care […]
