What happened: Miami scored 10 against Minnesota in a 15-10 final. The outing kept Miami under 14 points in each of its first four games, matching the 2019 Dolphins as the only such teams in the last 10 years.

Why it matters: Repeated trips under 14 shrink the margin for complementary football and put early direction under scrutiny. Sharing the mark with the 2019 Dolphins ties the slide to recent

By the numbers: Will Reichard scored a game-high 15 points, while Riley Patterson added 4 points.

What to watch: Miami gets its next chance to move past 14 and reset the offensive ledger.
