| Jeff Hafley DIDN’T Shut Down Dolphins Trade Rumors | 28 oct. 2026 | 00:06:38 | |
Miami Dolphins coach Jeff Hafley was asked about potential trades before the deadline—and he didn’t close the door. With Zach Sieler, Austin Jackson and Joshua Uche among the veterans generating speculation, Miami could face some difficult decisions as it continues building for the future. Wes Goldberg reacts to Hafley’s comments and the latest trade chatter before breaking down two important injury situations. Kadyn Proctor and JuJu Brents are in concussion protocol, potentially testing Miami’s depth at offensive line and cornerback at exactly the wrong time against New England.

| The Dolphins Could Actually Have the QB Advantage Here | Dolphins vs Patriots Preview | 28 oct. 2026 | 00:06:11 | |
The Miami Dolphins face the New England Patriots, and once again the matchup may come down to quarterback play. Malik Willis is coming off his best performance of the season, but now he has to prove he can build on it against Drake Maye and a talented Patriots defense. Wes Goldberg breaks down why Willis’ mobility could matter against New England’s man coverage, how Miami can use motion and quick throws to create easier opportunities and why turnovers could decide the game. If the Dolphins can compete with a Patriots team coming off a Super Bowl appearance, it could significantly change how we evaluate Miami’s rebuild.

| Zach Sieler’s Win-Saving Play SHUTS DOWN Latest Miami Dolphins Rumor | 28 oct. 2026 | 00:05:34 | |
Zach Sieler has been one of the most discussed Miami Dolphins trade candidates, but moving him before the deadline may be far less likely than some expect. His agent, Drew Rosenhaus, says there have been no trade discussions, while Jeff Hafley continues emphasizing Sieler’s leadership and value to Miami’s young roster. Wes Goldberg explains why Sieler’s goal-line play against the Jets perfectly illustrated his importance. Rebuilding teams need draft picks—but they also need good veteran players capable of showing young teammates how to win. The real question is what kind of draft compensation would make Miami reconsider. Support us by supporting our sponsors! 5-Hour Energy Haggar Kalshi 18+ only.

| Malik Willis’ Best Game Yet For the Dolphins — And Why It Matters | 27 oct. 2026 | 00:07:43 | |
Malik Willis delivered his best performance as the Miami Dolphins’ quarterback in their first win of the season, earning an A on Wes Goldberg’s weekly QB report card. Willis was decisive against pressure, protected the football and repeatedly made the right play instead of forcing something bigger. Wes breaks down Willis’ best moment—the 63-yard touchdown to Caleb Douglas—his biggest missed opportunity and the numbers behind his breakout game. Willis went 10-for-13 for 176 yards and a touchdown when blitzed, converted crucial fourth downs and finished without a turnover. Now the question is whether he can do it consistently.

| These Young Dolphins Could Be the Foundation | 26 oct. 2026 | 00:06:06 | |
The Miami Dolphins’ first win was about more than finally getting into the win column. Six games into the season, Miami is beginning to identify legitimate building blocks on both sides of the football, from Ollie Gordon and Kadyn Proctor to Jacob Rodriguez and Chris Johnson. Wes Goldberg breaks down the young core emerging around the Dolphins. Caleb Douglas and Chris Bell are flashing at receiver, Aaron Brewer and Proctor give the offensive line a foundation and Gordon could eventually pair with De’Von Achane. Defensively, Rodriguez, Jordyn Brooks, Jordan Phillips and others are giving Miami something tangible to build around. Support us by supporting our sponsors! 5-Hour Energy Haggar Kalshi 18+ only.

| THE DOLPHINS FINALLY WON! Malik Willis’ Best Game Yet | 26 oct. 2026 | 00:06:09 | |
The Miami Dolphins finally have their first win of the season, beating the New York Jets behind Malik Willis’ best performance as Miami’s quarterback. Willis played faster and more decisively, Caleb Douglas delivered explosive plays and Ollie Gordon rushed for 103 yards against a strong Jets run defense. Wes Goldberg breaks down why this win mattered beyond the standings. Miami’s young players stepped up, the offense finally showed balance and Jeff Hafley’s team got proof that its preparation and development can actually lead to results. For a rebuilding team that desperately needed something to believe in, this was a meaningful step forward. Support us by supporting our sponsors! 5-Hour Energy Haggar Kalshi 18+ only.

| THIS Is How Miami Can Beat the Jets Offense | 23 oct. 2026 | 00:05:52 | |
The Miami Dolphins finally face an offense with a clear weakness they should be able to exploit. Geno Smith has played efficient football for the New York Jets, but he has already been sacked 19 times behind an offensive line that ranks near the bottom of the NFL in sack rate allowed. Wes Goldberg breaks down Miami’s defensive game plan: stop a mediocre rushing attack on early downs, force Geno into obvious passing situations and finally unleash the pass rush. But the Dolphins also have to account for Garrett Wilson and New York’s dangerous multiple-tight-end packages, especially after struggling against tight ends earlier this season.

| Can Malik Willis FINALLY Win a Game With His Arm? | 23 oct. 2026 | 00:05:50 | |
The Miami Dolphins may need Malik Willis to win through the air against the New York Jets. New York ranks among the NFL’s best defenses against the run but is much more vulnerable against the pass, creating a fascinating test for Miami’s struggling quarterback. Wes Goldberg breaks down how the Dolphins should attack an aggressive Jets defense that loves to blitz but gives up opportunities underneath. Miami needs Willis to get the ball out quickly, hit Malik Washington and Chris Bell in space and avoid becoming too committed to the running game. This might be Miami’s most beatable opponent yet—but the matchup puts the pressure directly on Willis.

| Which Dolphins Rookie Takes a LEAP After the Bye? | 21 oct. 2026 | 00:05:52 | |
The Miami Dolphins are starting to get healthier coming out of the bye, and several important rookies could soon return or take on larger roles. Caleb Douglas is practicing again, Kyle Louis has opened his practice window and Kenneth Grant continues working his way back. Wes Goldberg explains why rookie development matters almost as much as wins for an 0-5 rebuilding team. Can Chris Bell sharpen his route running? Can Jacob Rodriguez improve in coverage? Can Michael Taaffe and Chris Johnson take another step in the secondary? And can Kadyn Proctor eliminate some of his rookie mistakes? Jets week is a chance to see who used the bye to get better.

| Is THIS Finally the Dolphins’ Best Chance to Win? | 21 oct. 2026 | 00:05:50 | |
The Miami Dolphins come out of the bye at 0-5, and Sunday against the New York Jets might be their best opportunity yet to finally win a game. New York is 2-4, ranks just 17th in offensive EPA and has one of the league’s least efficient rushing attacks. Wes Goldberg breaks down why this matchup finally gives Miami some advantages. The Dolphins’ improved run defense can force Geno Smith into obvious passing situations, creating opportunities for the pass rush and favorable field position. Is it technically a must-win? Maybe not. But after the toughest opening stretch in football, this is the game Miami needs to capitalize on.

| Miami Replaced Its Kicker — But THIS Is the Bigger Story | 21 oct. 2026 | 00:05:20 | |
The Miami Dolphins replaced struggling kicker Riley Patterson with Zane Gonzalez, but the move matters for more than field goals. For a rebuilding team constantly talking about competition and accountability, Miami finally backed those words up with action. Wes Goldberg explains why Gonzalez doesn’t even have to become a long-term solution for this move to matter. Patterson wasn’t playing well enough, so the Dolphins made a change. That sends a message across the roster: rebuilding doesn’t guarantee anyone patience forever. If you want to keep your role in Miami, you still have to perform—and that standard could become important as the organization evaluates its future. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

| Are the Dolphins At Risk Of Losing Generations of Fans? | 20 oct. 2026 | 00:06:59 | |
The Miami Dolphins haven’t won a regular-season game in nearly 300 days, while the rest of South Florida sports is thriving. The Hurricanes are No. 1, the Miami Heat are opening another highly anticipated season and the Florida Panthers have never been more popular. So is Miami still a Dolphins town? Wes Goldberg examines whether decades without a playoff win are starting to reshape South Florida fandom—especially for younger fans who have never experienced meaningful Dolphins success. The Dolphins still have enormous history and support, but this rebuild carries stakes beyond the standings. Miami has to make sure an entire generation doesn’t simply move on.

| Jeff Hafley Just Gave the Dolphins the PERFECT Message | 19 oct. 2026 | 00:07:01 | |
The Miami Dolphins got encouraging news coming out of the bye, with rookie receiver Caleb Douglas returning to practice on a limited basis. Miami badly needs more explosiveness at receiver, and Douglas gives the offense a true outside threat who can separate, create after the catch and win at the catch point. Wes Goldberg also breaks down other injury updates involving Kyle Louis, Trey Moore and Kenneth Grant before reacting to Jeff Hafley’s message to the team. At 0-5, Miami doesn’t just need schematic fixes—it needs confidence. Hafley’s job this week is making sure the Dolphins still believe they can turn the season around.

| Why Dolphins-Jets Feels Like Miami’s Best Chance Yet | 19 oct. 2026 | 00:05:35 | |
The Miami Dolphins come out of the bye at 0-5, and the New York Jets may be exactly the opponent they need. New York hung around against New England but showed defensive vulnerabilities Miami should be able to attack, including blown coverages and opportunities in the running game. Wes Goldberg reacts to the biggest stories from the weekend and explains why he believes Miami is the better-coached team in this matchup. Plus, NFL firing season has started, the Dolphins and Chargers are among the last winless teams, and pressure is building around struggling coaching staffs across the league.

| Do the Dolphins HAVE to Draft a QB in Round 1? | 16 oct. 2026 | 00:05:53 | |
Malik Willis hasn’t looked like the Miami Dolphins’ long-term answer at quarterback, but that doesn’t automatically mean Miami has to spend its next first-round pick on one. With prospects such as Arch Manning, Dante Moore and Darian Mensah in the conversation, the Dolphins must decide whether this roster is ready for a major quarterback investment. Wes Goldberg continues 4 Downs by examining whether Miami could instead add an elite talent elsewhere and keep building the foundation. Plus, Caleb Douglas’ expected return after the bye could reshape the receiver room and give the Dolphins a better evaluation of Willis, Chris Bell and Malik Washington.

| Should the Dolphins TRADE Zach Sieler? | 16 oct. 2026 | 00:06:55 | |
The Miami Dolphins are 0-5, the NFL trade deadline is approaching and veterans Zach Sieler and Austin Jackson could become fascinating trade candidates. Sieler is 31, under contract through next season and could have value to a contender while Miami continues stockpiling draft picks. Wes Goldberg goes 4 Downs during the bye week and asks whether Jon-Eric Sullivan should consider moving one of Miami’s longest-tenured players. Plus, could Austin Jackson draw interest despite his struggles? Trading him could allow Kadyn Proctor to move to right tackle while Jarrett Kingston or DJ Campbell gets an opportunity inside.

| The Dolphins Defense Is Improving — But THIS Is Still Missing | 16 oct. 2026 | 00:06:08 | |
The Miami Dolphins defense has quietly become one of the more encouraging parts of the team. Miami has developed one of the NFL’s better run defenses, Jacob Rodriguez leads the league in tackles and the Dolphins held Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins below 100 combined receiving yards. But one major problem remains: getting off the field. Opponents have converted 30 of 58 third downs, including Cincinnati going 9-for-13. Wes Goldberg explains why Miami needs more pressure on opposing quarterbacks, what Chop Robinson still has to prove and whether Kenneth Grant’s return after the bye can help unlock the pass rush.

| How the Dolphins Can FIX One of the NFL’s Worst Offenses | 16 oct. 2026 | 00:06:58 | |
The Miami Dolphins enter the bye with one of the NFL’s worst offenses, ranking near the bottom of the league in scoring, yards and EPA per play. Malik Willis has struggled, but Miami’s problems go beyond the quarterback: receivers aren’t consistently getting open, communication mistakes continue and the tight ends have provided little impact. Wes Goldberg explains how the Dolphins can use their successful running game to make life easier on Willis. More play action, more RPOs and more aggressive passing on first down could create easier opportunities. Coaching can help—but eventually Miami’s young offensive players have to develop and execute.

| Why Jacob Rodriguez Proves the Dolphins Drafted the RIGHT Way | 14 oct. 2026 | 00:05:41 | |
Jacob Rodriguez has quickly become the biggest bright spot of the Miami Dolphins’ rebuild. The rookie linebacker leads the NFL in tackles through five games, continues to break rookie marks and already looks like one of the most important building blocks on the roster. Wes Goldberg explains why drafting Rodriguez at No. 43 may already be the best decision of Jon-Eric Sullivan’s first year running Miami’s front office. Linebacker wasn’t necessarily the Dolphins’ biggest need, but Rodriguez is a perfect example of why rebuilding teams should prioritize talent over positional fit. Find great players first.

| Are the Miami Dolphins the WORST Team in the NFL? | 14 oct. 2026 | 00:06:25 | |
The Miami Dolphins are 0-5 with the NFL’s worst point differential, one of the league’s lowest-scoring offenses and major problems on both sides of the ball. But are they actually the worst team in football? Wes Goldberg compares Miami with the winless Tennessee Titans and Los Angeles Chargers using scoring, EPA, turnovers and overall roster performance. Then comes the bigger question: How should Dolphins fans feel about this season? If the goal was immediate wins, it’s been a disaster. But if this rebuild is about evaluating Malik Willis and identifying long-term pieces, Miami may already have several important answers. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

| The Dolphins Are 0-5 — But I’d Fix Just TWO Things | 13 oct. 2026 | 00:06:51 | |
The Miami Dolphins enter the bye winless, but their 0-5 record doesn’t tell the entire story. Miami has faced opponents with a combined 20-4 record, the defense has improved every week and the running game has remained productive even after losing De’Von Achane. Wes Goldberg gives his pre-bye report card and explains why he’s focused on subtraction rather than adding more to the scheme. The Dolphins need to eliminate negative plays in the red zone and clean up repeated special teams mistakes. Malik Willis still has to improve, but Miami’s biggest path toward becoming more competitive may simply be stopping the self-inflicted damage. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

| Why Jeff Hafley Is Committed to Malik Willis | 13 oct. 2026 | 00:05:37 | |
Malik Willis has struggled through five games as the Miami Dolphins’ starting quarterback, ranking last among full-time starters in passer rating, completion percentage, touchdown passes and passing yards per game. But Jeff Hafley isn’t considering a change—and Wes Goldberg thinks that’s the right call. The important part of Hafley’s answer isn’t simply “Malik is our quarterback.” It’s that Miami has played only five games. Willis is operating with three rookie receivers, a rookie tight end and without De’Von Achane. The Dolphins need to simplify the offense, speed up his processing and finally weaponize his legs before making any long-term conclusions.

| Likes/Dislikes From the Dolphins' Loss to the Bengals | 12 oct. 2026 | 00:06:15 | |
The Miami Dolphins lost again, but their running game provided one of the most encouraging performances of the season. Miami rushed 34 times for 217 yards and two touchdowns, while rookie Ollie Gordon continued to look like a potential long-term piece with 88 yards on 18 carries. Wes Goldberg breaks down what he liked and didn’t like from Dolphins-Bengals, including Malik Willis’ scrambling, Chris Bell’s 26-yard reverse, Josh Uche forcing a fumble and another encouraging performance from Dante Trader Jr. On the negative side: Willis struggled badly, Jacob Rodriguez was targeted in coverage and Miami’s special teams problems continued.

| Malik Willis Just Played His WORST Game Yet | 12 oct. 2026 | 00:06:20 | |
Malik Willis delivered his worst performance of the season in the Miami Dolphins’ loss to the Cincinnati Bengals, raising major questions about his future as an NFL starting quarterback. Willis completed just five passes and threw two interceptions in the first half while repeatedly missing open receivers and holding the ball too long. Wes Goldberg breaks down why this performance felt different from Willis’ previous struggles and what comes next. Miami has limited weapons and little competition behind him, so Willis will get more opportunities. But after five games without an above-average performance, the clock is ticking on his chance to prove he can be the Dolphins’ long-term answer. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

| The Dolphins NEED This One — 4 Downs vs. Cincinnati | 09 oct. 2026 | 00:07:33 | |
The Miami Dolphins are 0-4 and facing what may be their best chance yet to earn their first win of the season against the Cincinnati Bengals. But injuries to Kenneth Grant, Caleb Douglas, Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins could dramatically reshape Sunday’s matchup. Wes Goldberg goes 4 Downs on Dolphins-Bengals, including why Miami is under enormous pressure to finally win, the matchup between Aaron Brewer and Kadyn Proctor against Dexter Lawrence, and whether Malik Willis can bounce back after another frustrating performance. Plus, what should we make of Kevin Coleman saying he’s been open more often than his two catches suggest?

| Jeff Hafley Just CHALLENGED Chop Robinson | 08 oct. 2026 | 00:05:11 | |
Miami Dolphins edge rusher Chop Robinson is coming off one of his best performances, recording 10 pressures, a sack and four quarterback hits. Jeff Hafley’s response? Do it again. With Joe Burrow expected to throw heavily for Cincinnati, Robinson has another major opportunity to prove he can become a consistent difference-maker. Wes Goldberg breaks down the Dolphins’ defensive game plan against Burrow and a Bengals receiving corps dealing with uncertainty around Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. Miami’s secondary and linebackers will be tested by Cincinnati’s quick passing game—but all those dropbacks also give Robinson another chance to take over. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

| This Could Be Malik Willis’ BREAKOUT Game | 08 oct. 2026 | 00:05:19 | |
The Miami Dolphins may have their best opportunity yet to unleash Malik Willis against the Cincinnati Bengals. Miami has to stay on the field after running only 37 plays against Minnesota, and that starts with Ollie Gordon, the running game and converting third downs. Wes Goldberg breaks down why Cincinnati’s heavy use of man coverage could create a perfect opportunity for Willis to become a major rushing threat. The Bengals play man at one of the NFL’s highest rates, leaving defenders with their backs turned to the quarterback. If Willis can survive the pass rush and attack those openings, this could finally be his breakout performance. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

| Miami Dolphins' Offensive Line Faces a HUGE Week 5 Test | 07 oct. 2026 | 00:05:53 | |
The Miami Dolphins’ offensive line faces a major challenge against Cincinnati’s defensive front, and that matchup could determine whether Miami can finally establish its offense. The Bengals are stout up front, can create pressure and bring one of the better run defenses the Dolphins have faced. Wes Goldberg explains why Miami’s offensive line is under the microscope before turning to several important injury updates. Kenneth Grant returned to practice for the first time this season, Caleb Douglas doesn’t appear likely to play, Ja’Marr Chase is in concussion protocol and Tee Higgins is expected to practice on a limited basis.

| Jeff Hafley Just Challenged the Entire Miami Dolphins Locker Room | 07 oct. 2026 | 00:06:29 | |
Jeff Hafley delivered a blunt message to the Miami Dolphins as their difficult season continues: If you’re not ready for the journey, go talk to the front office. Hafley says this adversity will reveal which players Miami can actually trust to be part of its future. Wes Goldberg breaks down Hafley’s challenge to the locker room and why this stretch could become an important part of the Dolphins’ rebuild. Miami is trying to identify the players who will stay in the boat when things get difficult—and Hafley remains adamant that the Dolphins will eventually flip this thing around.

| Would 0-17 Actually Be GOOD for the Dolphins? | 06 oct. 2026 | 00:05:50 | |
The Miami Dolphins are 0-4, and the possibility of an historically bad season is becoming harder to completely dismiss. But could hitting absolute rock bottom actually be the best thing for the organization? Wes Goldberg explains why he’s willing to embrace the possibility of 0-17—not simply because it would secure the No. 1 pick, but because sometimes an organization needs a season bad enough to force meaningful change. Miami still has winnable games ahead, including Cincinnati before the bye, so an 0-17 finish remains unlikely. But if rock bottom is what finally changes the direction of the franchise, maybe Dolphins fans shouldn’t fear it. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

| I’ve Seen Enough — Malik Willis NEEDS to Be Better | 06 oct. 2026 | 00:08:05 | |
Malik Willis struggled again for the Miami Dolphins, completing just 9 of 17 passes for 85 yards and earning another disappointing quarterback grade. While Willis flashed his playmaking ability on a spectacular would-be touchdown to Chris Bell, he also missed four open receivers and continues to struggle seeing the entire field. Wes Goldberg goes to the film for his weekly Malik Willis QB Grade, evaluating his decision-making, execution and best and worst plays. Willis gets a D overall, with his biggest growth opportunity becoming clear: process his reads faster, improve his field vision and consistently find the open receiver.

| INSTANT REACTION: Miami Dolphins Fall to 0-4 — But Are They FINALLY Getting Better? | 05 oct. 2026 | 00:06:45 | |
The Miami Dolphins are 0-4 after falling to the Minnesota Vikings, but this might have been their most encouraging loss yet. Miami successfully dragged the game into the mud, played field-position football and covered a 10.5-point spread — but penalties, third-down struggles and an inability to finish once again cost them. Wes Goldberg explains why the Dolphins played the game they needed to play, even as Malik Willis and the offense struggled to make the decisive plays.

| Can the Miami Dolphins Handle the Vikings BLITZING Defense? | 01 oct. 2026 | 00:06:19 | |
The Miami Dolphins face the NFL's scariest defense this week when they take on the Minnesota Vikings. How can they move the ball against the league's top defense without De'Von Achane? What opportunities does this blitz package present? Wes Goldberg zooms in on what the Dolphins can do when they are on offense and how he expects Miami to try to counter the NFL's most aggressive defense. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

| These Dolphins MUST Step Up Without De’Von Achane | 30 sept. 2026 | 00:06:38 | |
The Miami Dolphins are 10.5-point underdogs against the Minnesota Vikings, and several players will be under the microscope without De’Von Achane. Ollie Gordon, Jaylen Wright and Miami’s offensive line now have to prove the Dolphins can still establish a running game without their most explosive weapon. Wes Goldberg also explains why it may be time to take the restrictions off Malik Willis. Forget trying to prove he can single-handedly beat Minnesota—instead, every game should become a series of evaluation opportunities. Can Willis handle difficult situations, create with his legs and show Miami he can become a difference-making quarterback? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

| Can the Dolphins Score AT ALL vs. the Vikings? | 30 sept. 2026 | 00:05:33 | |
The Miami Dolphins face their toughest offensive challenge yet against Brian Flores and the Minnesota Vikings—and they’ll do it without De’Von Achane. With Minnesota’s defense ranking at the top of the league, Miami may need to completely change the way it approaches Sunday’s game. Wes Goldberg breaks down how the Dolphins can manufacture points without their best offensive weapon, why the defense may need to create favorable field position and how Miami can turn this into a grind-it-out game. After three weeks of high-scoring games, this could be an opportunity to win with defense, field position and patience. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

| Malik Willis Week 3 Grade: He REGRESSED | 29 sept. 2026 | 00:07:39 | |
Malik Willis took a step backward as a passer in the Miami Dolphins’ loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Willis finished 20-of-36 for 210 yards with no touchdowns and an interception, while also losing a fumble in a game Miami kept competitive into the fourth quarter. Wes Goldberg gives Willis a D grade, down from a C in Week 2, after another rough performance throwing deep. Willis completed just one of eight passes traveling 20-plus air yards and missed multiple opportunities for explosive plays.

Miami entered the fourth quarter within seven points, controlled the clock, moved the football and finally generated consistent pressure on Patrick Mahomes.

Plus, Miami went 0-for-3 on fourth downs, including one aggressive decision that helped Kansas City break the game open. Is Jeff Hafley becoming a more aggressive fourth-down coach?

| My Final Dolphins-Chiefs Predictions | 26 sept. 2026 | 00:06:30 | |
The Miami Dolphins finally return home to face Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs, but keeping pace with one of the NFL’s highest-scoring offenses will be a massive challenge. Miami moved the ball against San Francisco last week but struggled to finish drives—and that could be costly against Kansas City. Wes Goldberg predicts how Dolphins-Chiefs will unfold, why field position and avoiding negative plays are critical, and whether De’Von Achane can outproduce Kenneth Walker. Plus: predictions for Mahomes’ touchdown total and the final score. Wes’ pick: Chiefs 31, Dolphins 14. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

| 4 Downs For Dolphins-Chiefs | 25 sept. 2026 | 00:06:04 | |
The Miami Dolphins finally play their home opener against the Kansas City Chiefs, and the biggest question is simple: Can they give their fans something to cheer about—or will this turn ugly? Chop Robinson enters Sunday under major pressure as Miami searches for its first consistent pass rush of the season. Wes Goldberg goes 4 Downs before Dolphins-Chiefs, including why Jacob Rodriguez and Jordyn Brooks have to contain Kenneth Walker once he reaches the second level. Plus, what would qualify as meaningful progress against Patrick Mahomes? If Jeff Hafley’s schematic adjustments can generate pressure while Miami slows the run, that would represent a significant step forward. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

| MATCHUP: These are the Dolphins Decisions When the Chiefs Are on Offense | 25 sept. 2026 | 00:06:12 | |
The Miami Dolphins may finally have a defensive matchup they can exploit against the Kansas City Chiefs. Chop Robinson expects to return Sunday, and with Kansas City potentially starting undrafted rookie Kahlil Benson at left tackle, Miami’s pass rush has an opportunity to finally make an impact. Wes Goldberg breaks down why Robinson and Josh Uche could give the Dolphins an advantage on the edge and what Jeff Hafley’s defense should prioritize against Patrick Mahomes and Kenneth Walker. Miami can’t take away everything, so the choice should be clear: stop the run, force Mahomes to beat you and start establishing the physical identity this defense wants.

| THIS Is How the Miami Dolphins Can UNLOCK Malik Willis | 25 sept. 2026 | 00:06:52 | |
The Miami Dolphins offense has scored the third-fewest points in the NFL, and one potential solution is hiding in plain sight: Let Malik Willis run. Willis has only eight rushing attempts through two games despite his mobility being one of the traits that can make him a true matchup problem. Wes Goldberg explains why Miami should incorporate more designed runs, RPOs and rollouts against the Kansas City Chiefs. With defenses focused on De’Von Achane and Miami’s young receivers still developing, Willis’ legs can provide an important counter. He doesn’t need to prove he’s strictly a pocket passer—he needs to prove he can be a difference-making quarterback. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

| These 2 Dolphins Trends Are VERY Concerning | 23 sept. 2026 | 00:05:50 | |
The Miami Dolphins’ biggest problem isn’t simply their 0-2 record. Miami still hasn’t recorded a first-half defensive stop through two games, opponents have scored on 10 of 17 possessions and the Dolphins’ supposed foundational players have yet to consistently make game-changing plays. Wes Goldberg breaks down the two most troubling trends from Miami’s start. Jeff Hafley still needs to manufacture a pass rush to protect a young secondary, while Malik Willis, De’Von Achane, Chop Robinson and Zach Sieler all need to elevate their play. These aren’t necessarily bad performances—but Miami needs its building blocks to start changing games. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

| Dolphins–Chiefs Will Tell Us How Bad the Dolphins Defense REALLY Is | 23 sept. 2026 | 00:05:19 | |
The Miami Dolphins’ defense faces its toughest challenge yet against Patrick Mahomes, Kenneth Walker and the Kansas City Chiefs. Walker enters Week 3 as the NFL’s leading rusher, while Mahomes is still the best quarterback Miami has faced—even if his start to the season has been relatively quiet. Wes Goldberg breaks down the biggest question facing Miami: Can the Dolphins defend the run without opening everything up for Mahomes? Plus, Chop Robinson is back to contact, Zach Sieler needs to make more impact plays and Kansas City could have vulnerability at left tackle. Miami’s defensive front has to finally create disruption.

| 3 Dolphins Starters Who Could LOSE Their Jobs | 22 sept. 2026 | 00:05:24 | |
The Miami Dolphins are 0-2, and Jeff Hafley says conversations are already happening about potential changes to the starting lineup and rotation. Could Jason Marshall Jr., Austin Jackson or one of Miami’s safeties be at risk of losing snaps? Wes Goldberg examines where changes could happen first. JuJu Brents is pushing for more opportunities at corner, Caedan Wallace could become an option if Jackson continues to struggle at right tackle, and Miami has multiple ways to reshuffle its safety rotation involving Dante Trader Jr., Michael Taaffe and Zayne Anderson. It may only be two games—but Hafley is making it clear that competition remains open. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

| Malik Willis Week 2 Grade: Better, But Still Not Good Enough | 22 sept. 2026 | 00:07:20 | |
Malik Willis showed some improvement in the Miami Dolphins’ Week 2 loss to the San Francisco 49ers, but there are still major areas to clean up. Willis managed the game better than he did in Week 1 and made an impressive sideline throw to Malik Washington, but sacks—especially in the red zone—continued to hurt Miami. Wes Goldberg gives Willis a C grade, up from a C- last week, and breaks down the best and worst moments from his performance. Plus, Willis improved at taking easy throws underneath, but now needs to attack the middle of the field and do a better job avoiding costly sacks. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

| Why the Dolphins’ Blowout Loss Wasn’t as Bad as It Looked | 21 sept. 2026 | 00:06:41 | |
The Miami Dolphins lost by 22 points to the San Francisco 49ers, but there may have been more encouraging signs than the final score suggests. Miami won time of possession, moved the ball effectively in the first half, improved its running game, cut down on penalties and did a much better job against the run. Wes Goldberg explains why the Dolphins still showed progress despite the blowout—and why the bad moments were catastrophic enough to erase it. San Francisco went 5-for-5 in the red zone while Miami repeatedly settled for field goals or came away empty. The Dolphins moved the football. They just couldn’t finish.

| INSTANT REACTION: Is the Dolphins Defense the WORST in the NFL? | 21 sept. 2026 | 00:06:17 | |
The Miami Dolphins allowed 35 points to the San Francisco 49ers and didn’t record a defensive stop until the fourth quarter, raising a major question after two weeks: Is this one of the worst defenses in the NFL? Miami struggled against the run in Week 1, got shredded through the air in Week 2 and still hasn’t recorded a sack. Wes Goldberg breaks down why the defense could make the entire Dolphins rebuild harder to evaluate. Plus, Austin Jackson struggled again against an elite pass rusher, the offensive line has now allowed nine sacks in two games and Miami has another potential problem developing up front.
