Overview

  • Miami led 17-0 before Carolina rallied to win 27-24 in Charlotte, dropping the Dolphins to 1-4 and lifting the Panthers to 2-3.
  • Backup running back Rico Dowdle ran for 206 yards and a touchdown, powering the Panthers’ 239-19 advantage on the ground.
  • Bryce Young went 19 of 30 for 198 yards with two touchdowns and one interception, hitting Mitchell Evans for the go-ahead 4-yard score with 1:59 left.
  • The Dolphins’ offense stalled after halftime despite Tua Tagovailoa’s 27-of-36, 256-yard, three-touchdown day, which included a 46-yard strike to Jaylen Waddle; Darren Waller scored in a productive first half.
  • Miami’s final chance ended after a three-and-out, and a pass-interference call on cornerback Jack Jones following an apparent stop let Carolina run out the clock.
