Chargers vs. Dolphins By The Numbers: It’s time for the Bolts to run wild

[Skip to main content](#content)

The Charger s are 3-2 on the season and will travel to Miami to face the 1-4 Dolphins in Week Six. This is an excellent chance for some kind of a “get right game” but that’s only if they can button up the penalty issues and lack of discipline.

Despite their record, the Dolphins are still a dangerous team on offense. Defensively, however, they’re not looking too hot. That’s especially true on the ground where they allow a league-leading 174.2 rushing yards per game.

Could it be a big week for either Hassan Haskins or Kimani Vidal? Only time will tell!

With that said, here’s a quick screenshot of how these two teams fare on paper after the first five weeks of the season.
