The Miami Dolphins knew there would be growing pains this season. But after an ugly Week 1 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders, should Dolphins fans already be worried? Award-winning columnist Dave Hyde and former Miami Dolphins defender Kim Bokamper break down a frustrating season opener in which the Dolphins were pushed around at the line of scrimmage, struggled to generate a pass rush, and hurt themselves with costly penalties, turnovers, and major breakdowns on special teams. So how much of what went wrong can be fixed — and how much points to bigger problems with this young roster? Dave and Bo examine the good and the bad from Malik Willis’ first meaningful start as Miami’s quarterback, the struggles along both lines of scrimmage, and some encouraging performances from a young Dolphins core that included Caleb Douglas, Jacob Rodriguez, Kadyn Proctor, and Miami’s rookie defensive backs. Bo believes this could look like a different football team as the young players gain experience. Dave wonders just how long his Dolphins victory cigar is going to remain unlit.

xpectations were fairly low for the Miami Dolphins heading into the 2026 season. The team's performance in its Week 1 loss at the Las Vegas Raiders struggled to meet them. In what most prognosticators suggested was one of, if not THE, most winnable games on the Dolphins' 2026 schedule, the Dolphins looked mostly sluggish and out of sorts. On defense, the team couldn't generate a pass rush and struggled to stop Kirk Cousins' dink-and-dunk approach. Ashton Jeanty looked like Larry Csonka, driving through the Dolphins' defensive line with little resistance. On offense, the Dolphins struggled to protect Mailk Willis, who himself ran into several sacks. While De'Von Achane looked good in spurts, the Dolphins' inconsistency and inability to stop the Vegas offense meant they got away from the run. But it wasn't all doom and gloom. Jacob Rodriguez was a bright spot in his first NFL game, as was Caleb Douglas. Malik Willis used his physicality and athleticism to run for a touchdown. The much-maligned secondary came away from the game with a pair of interceptions. And, above everything else, a baseline was set for the remainder of the season. Aaron and Josh are back to discuss the game from a variety of angles while not taking themselves (or anything else) too seriously.

Today, on the Post-Game Wrap-Up Show, Mike and Tom are back with the first regular season Post Game Wrap up show of the season. The guys discuss the Miami Dolphins losing to the Las Vegas Raiders in a performance most of the team, I am sure, would like to forget. Willis was OK, Caleb Douglas was good, and the rest of the offense wasn't anything special. The Defense and Special Teams are a totally different discussion, where finding positives to speak of is few and far between. The guys go over the game, give out some game balls, talk about what this loss means, and look ahead to next week's matchup vs. San Francisco.

It’s go time. The Miami Dolphins are heading to Las Vegas to open the season against the Raiders, and Kim Bokamper and Joe Rose are breaking down what they’ll be watching when this young Dolphins team finally takes the field for real. With potentially six rookies in the starting lineup, Bo and Joe discuss just how unusual it is to see Miami enter a season depending on this much youth — and why the Dolphins’ physical training camp may have prepared these young players for the moment. They also explain why a Week 1 matchup with the Raiders could be an ideal opportunity for Miami to find its footing. Then there’s Malik Willis. After earning the starting quarterback job, Willis gets his first real opportunity to show that he can be the guy in Miami. Bo and Joe discuss his leadership, temperament, and mobility, along with an offensive line they believe has the potential to become one of the Dolphins’ biggest strengths. Plus, the guys break down Miami’s young skill-position players, Chris Bell’s remarkable return from an ACL injury, the challenge of containing Maxx Crosby, the importance of establishing the running game with De’Von Achane, and the key matchups that could determine whether the Dolphins leave Las Vegas 1-0.
