Miami Dolphins remain winless after fourth straight loss

The Miami Dolphins have extended their winless start to 0‑4, falling 15‑10 to the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday.

All four opening games have seen the Dolphins score 13 points or fewer – 13 against Las Vegas and San Francisco, then 10 against Kansas City and now 10 against Minnesota – the lowest scoring start recorded by only three NFL teams since 2002.

First‑year head coach Jeff Hafley said he is “not happy” but remains determined to improve, noting the team had a chance to win in the fourth quarter. The Dolphins’ passing total of 85 yards was the franchise’s lowest in a game since 2010.

Defensively, rookie linebacker Jacob Rodriguez recorded 18 tackles, the most by a Miami rookie since statistics were tracked in 1994, surpassing Zach Thomas’s 1996 mark. The defence limited the Vikings to a single touchdown, though T.J. Hockenson’s late catch secured the win for Minnesota.

Miami also suffered injuries, losing running back De’Von Achane to a season‑ending ACL tear and cornerback Reese Taylor to a quad injury. With the offense struggling and key players sidelined, the Dolphins face a challenging path forward.
