What happened: Miami joins its 2019 and 2004 teams as the most recent clubs held at 13 points or fewer through four games. The drought

Why it matters: All three entries on the recent list are Miami teams, marking a repeat early-season offensive stall for the franchise. Extended scoring droughts to open a season compress margin for error in the standings race.

By the numbers: 13 points or fewer in each of first four games: 2026 Dolphins, 2019 Dolphins, 2004 Dolphins.

What to watch: Miami now looks to Week 5 for its first output above 13 points.
