The Dolphins have scored one touchdown and are on pace to total 85 points, which would shatter the record for fewest points in a 16-game season by Seattle, which scored 140 in 1992.
Miami has allowed 13 sacks and is averaging 2.6 yards per rush, both statistics a reflection of bad blocking. A lineup unsettled largely because of an ongoing roster purge hasn’t helped.
”When it’s always being shuffled around, the rhythm is a little bit off,” Deiter said. ”But if that’s how it’s going to be week to week, that’s how it is. Whether it’s people leaving or people getting hurt, football is super unpredictable. Whoever is out there, we have to make it work. It can’t be an excuse not to play good football.”
This week’s question is whether the Chargers take advantage of the matchup; their line play has been a problem on both sides of the ball. A pass rush led by Joey Bosa and Melvin Ingram has totaled four sacks, while the offensive line is without injured left tackle Russell Okung, and Philip Rivers was sacked five times last week.
”I think the guys understand we need some urgency right now,” coach Anthony Lynn said.
