(Photo by Megan Briggs/Getty Images) | Getty ImagesWeek 5 of the 2026 NFL season includes the Miami Dolphins hosting the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday afternoon. This marks the first game Miami has faced a team that had previously lost, after facing the Las Vegas Raiders, San Francisco 49ers, Kansas City Chiefs, and Minnesota Vikings in the first four weeks, all of whom entered (and left) the game undefeated. The Bengals come into Week 5 2-2, winning their first two games before losing each of the last two weeks. Can the Dolphins make it a three-game losing streak for Cincinnati?
The Dolphins have begun to show signs of growth, an important part of what they need for 2026. Entering the season as the NFL's youngest team, Miami expects its players to learn and develop week to week, even if they take more early-season losses than wins. That growth seemed on display last week against the Vikings, when the Dolphins made plays and looked competitive, even in a 15-10 loss.
This week, they look to take another step forward by hosting the Bengals.
