Things are worse in Miami than their winless record indicates.

This Miami Dolphins stat in 2026 seems nearly impossible

In a mind-boggling 2026 NFL season so far, the Miami Dolphins have been unable to secure a single lead as they have gone through their first five games without taking a single offensive snap while leading a game. This astonishing statistic reveals the immense challenges faced by head coach Jeff Hafley, who took over as the team struggles to establish a solid foundation.

With a 0-5 record, Miami enters Week 7 against the New York Jets at the bottom of the league standings. The offense has failed to produce any reason for optimism, as they have only played 293 offensive snaps, with none of them coming when the Dolphins were ahead. This means the team has spent the entire offensive season either trailing or tied.

The quarterback situation has been a major concern, with Malik Willis taking every one of Miami’s 293 offensive snaps. Despite his efforts, the passing game has been ineffective, and the Dolphins rank 31st in the NFL in scoring, allowing an alarming 132 points. The absence of star running back De’Von Achane, who suffered a season-ending injury in Week 3, has further complicated matters.

While Ollie Gordon has stepped up to fill the void, Miami's offensive struggles remain a major issue. The team's inability to hold a lead through five games is an embarrassment, and Hafley and Willis now face a critical stretch to turn their fortunes around.
