Best Individual Defensive Game in Dolphin History

[SF Dolphin Fan]

I go way back to the early 70's and my vote would be Dick Anderson's four interception game against Pittsburgh. But, Trace Armstrong's three sack game against Buffalo was in the playoffs so that makes it awfully special as well. Third for me would be the incredible game Manny Fernandez had against the Vikes in Super Bowl VIII. Minnesota had a total of 37 offense plays in that game and while the Dolphins offense had a lot to do with that so did Manny. Jake Scott in Super Bowl VII -- others???

What about AJ Duhe's 3 INT game vs. the Jets in the 1982 AFC Championship game or Louis Oliver's 3 INT game vs. the Bills where he had something like 173 yds. worth of interception return yards including a 100+ yard TD?

Thank you. That slipped my mind. Incredible game and a shutout of the Jets to boot!

The game I`d vote for isn`t even on the poll! 1982 playoff win against the Jets, we win 14-0 as AJ Duhe picks off three Richard Todd passes, including one returned 35 yds for a TD. Best defensive performance I`ve ever seen by any Dolphin player, and I`ve been watching for 34 years.

Louis Oliver in Buffalo in 92 - 3 picks, one returned 103 yards for a TD.

That should have been on the poll. I love the shot of him running down the field with the ball raised up and that look in his eyes. An incredible game for sure and I can't believe I forgot it.
