NFL early season team performance trends

Overview

Early season NFL fan surveys indicate widespread concern regarding team performances across several franchises. Initial reports focused on the Green Bay Packers and Cleveland Browns. As the season progressed, scrutiny expanded to the Jacksonville Jaguars and Miami Dolphins.

Following an 0-2 start, the Dolphins faced ongoing criticism regarding communication, roster integration, and a lack of defensive pass rush. During their Week 3 matchup against the undefeated Kansas City Chiefs, the Dolphins' roster challenges intensified when Pro Bowl running back De’Von Achane suffered a torn ACL and was ruled out for the remainder of the season. Achane, who recently signed a four-year, $64 million contract extension, suffered the injury during an 11-yard run in the first quarter.

The Chiefs defeated the Dolphins 24-10 at Hard Rock Stadium, moving to a 3-0 record. The victory included a milestone for quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who tied Tom Brady for the most wins in his first 150 career starts. Mahomes recorded 246 passing yards and two touchdowns, completing all 14 play-action attempts and connecting with Travis Kelce for a late fourth-quarter touchdown. Running back Kenneth Walker III, a premier offseason addition following a three-year, $43.05 million deal, provided offensive balance with 70 rushing yards and a touchdown on 18 carries, helping the Chiefs rank as the fourth-most explosive offense in the NFL.

Tight end Travis Kelce has been a key factor in the Chiefs’ undefeated start, recording 14 receptions for 231 yards and two touchdowns through the first three games. While the Chiefs' performance was described as “unconvincing” due to struggles on the ground and defensive line mistakes, the win leaves the Dolphins at 0-3. Despite flashes of potential from rookie linebacker Jacob Rodriguez, the Dolphins continue to struggle, particularly against play-action passes.
