What is your favorite victories as a Dolphin fan all time and what is your most heartbreaking losses of all time in your history as a fan? Also am I winning in the votes as the Best enemy fan? I prefer to stay humble though lol.
 
Most heartbreaking was the Monday Night Miracle vs the Jets, and my favorite victory of all time was when Pennington beat the bastard Jets to secure a playoff spot. See a pattern here? Lol
 
Most people will name the "Fake Spike" game as one of their favorites and it's certainly one of my personal favorites as well.

The absolute worst for me was Marino's last game when we were embarassed in the playoffs by Jacksonville. Also, the "Monday Night Miracle" against the Jets. You just kept waiting and waiting for the Dolphins to close the door and it never happened.

Best win ever for me?

September 9th, 1984. First home game of the season against New England. We were in the Orange Bowl. My very first Dolphins game....and it was my birthday. Dolphins won 28-7.
 
Thanksgiving Day 2003. Throwback jerseys and we looked completely dominate against a team we were supposed to get mauled by.

Ahhhhhhh how could I forget about the 1993 Thanksgiving game between the Dolphins and Cowboys?

I was so sad that we were going to lose that game.

Then it happened. Let it go, Leon. Let it go.

Most in my family aren't sports fans. Can't remember how many times I heard someone walk in the living room and ask, "Is it snowing in DALLAS?"
 
Hard to name a favorite but one of mine was the wildcat game against new england. I Broke up with a girlfriend few weeks before who was a diehard patriots fan and a tad unfaithful. We broke up and i felt like her team winning (a lock) would be the stiletto in the ball for me.

Oh the joy, closure, and salvation it was for me to see bellicheck stumped and his team whooped. It felt like justice
 
Loved the Super Bowl win to top off the undefaeted season,but I actually love the Marino led Dolphins team that handed the Bears there only loss the year they won the Super Bowl.

Worst loss,the "Sea of Hands game" way back when. I still dont believe Stabler got the pass off,and the catch with all those Dolphins around still brings a tear to my eye. We were going for our 4th Super Bowl appearence in a row,and 3rd win in a row in a the Super Bowl that year,truly a sad loss.

the hardest one for me was probly the monday night miracle.
favorites: wildcat game, pennington beating the jets (and bell baptising farve), throwback thanksgiving game, and the game we broke the like 10 staight losses against the jets. the one where ricky destroyed them.
 
Best: January 14th 1972 Perfect season SB win on my 8th birthday. Happy birthday!

Worst: Kellon Winslow OT AFC Playoff game. "Good he's hurt! What's he doing back in there? ...repeat...repeat..."

Worst (runners up): Superbowl losses to (Evil) Dallas, Washington (Riggins game), and San Francisco (Montana vs. Marino).

Favorite and biggest victory by far was the Super Bowl to cap the Perfect Season. Everyone knew that legendary status was at stake, but don't let anybody claim the town was ultra confident. The Dallas loss a year earlier left plenty of doubt. We were relieved when the Redskins thumped Dallas in the NFC title game. It didn't look like a good matchup for Miami. Better to take our chances against Kilmer than Staubach.

As nervous as I was as that game approached, and throughout the early stages, by early second quarter I surprised myself by being completely relaxed. Miami was clearly the better team and the scoreboard would take care of itself.

Most devastating loss was '74 playoffs at Oakland. I don't mind admitting that I cried for a half hour or more. No sporting event has ever impacted me like that, not remotely close. We knew it was the end of an era, and sure enough that era has never been approximated.

I always have to shake my head in disbelief when games like '81 vs. the Chargers or '94 at San Diego are mentioned in the same category as that '74 defeat.

most heart breaking was loss to the bills at home in the AFC Champ game in 1992 - tied with Petey missing the field goal in 1994???...We havent been close to the SB since...or even the AFC championship game...

biggest win...I'd say when Marino came back vs the pats in 94 and won that shootout vs bledsoe...I was camping at disney for that one and when we finally won you heard mass cheering in ft wilderness...
 
Memorable win the one win in the 1 -15 season.

Most heartbreaking moment as a Dolphin fan was the way Marino went out.

NFW, lol. That was my 10th birthday!

For me I think the best win was the 82 AFC championship vs the Jets. It's a shame I didn't understand exactly what a big deal it was at the time. I expected to win and was more fired up about the Super Bowl than to understand what just happened. Another great one was the against the 85 Bears.

I think Dan's last game might be the first game most of us think of although following this team there are a lot of choices. Before Dan got here the Superbowl loss to the Redskins was a painful one they had got so close. I don't remember the sea of hands but in my lifetime and in the team's history it was quite possibly the most costly loss and it was by a lucky play. Getting crushed at home by crappy New England in the 85 AFC championship game was one of the worse days to be a fan. The loss to the 49ers in the Super Bowl I saw coming a mile away, a certain wisdom children have, I probably wouldn't stop bragging if they were 14-2 today.
