Frequently Asked Questions

Miami was booed off Hard Rock Stadium’s turf with a 1–5 record, a quarterback recording his second three-turnover performance of the 2025 season, and a red-zone conversion rate — 2-for-7 on the night — that ranked among the worst in the league. Los Angeles had real problems of its own: three consecutive red-zone field goals in the first half, a fumble from Gadsden, and a 40% showing on third down. But Herbert threw the ball 38 times without a pick, the Chargers’ defense forced three turnovers, and Dicker didn’t miss all night. Jim Harbaugh’s side had enough. The Chargers moved on to Indianapolis; Miami headed to Cleveland, still in search of win number two.
