Dolphins started that year 9-2 and lost last 5 games in a row to miss the playoffs to become the first (and only) team in NFL history to start 9-2 and not make the playoffs. Dolphins this year start 8-3 and are now on a 4 game losing streak with one left in sub-zero New England and the always lethal Jets. Thanks for the Christmas gift yet again Dolphins. Really tough being a lifelong fan of these guys.
 
we are not good, true, inconsistent and to reliant on two dudes. We can never win when it counts but sure look good in the meaningless ones.
 
That team played most of the season without their future HOF QB and a few other key injuries. That was an epic collapse but IMO the collapse this season has been even worse. Both were inexcusable.
 
I was at that season ending game in New England in 93. Lousy way to end the season, but the fans were so happy that I had to let my disappointment go for a little while and let everyone else enjoy their moment in the sun.
 
Scott Mitchell sure cashed in with Detroit however. Didn't help us get into the playoffs however it surely changed his life.

No comparison between the two. Miami was going to the Super Bowl in 93 if Marino was heathy. This team is a fraud.

Am I the only one who remembers how awful our defense was that year? Olivadotti was horrid, and once Troy Vincent went down in the Pittsburgh game returning a punt (WTF Shula!?!?), there wasn't another single starting corner on the team, including J.B. Brown.
 
Let’s not start the 1993 comparisons before this team definitely misses the playoffs. They still have a decent chance of getting in— for whatever that’s worth now. Also, 1993 has a major asterisk. Plenty of Miami teams have faltered down the stretch, it’s quite cliche at this point.

It's looking to warm up a lot for next weekend. As for the rest of it, yeah, we manage to totally collapse.

It makes no difference but the temp next Sunday in NE is supposed to be 58. Also, always lethal Jets? You can’t possibly be serious with that statement.
 
They weren't beating Buffalo regardless in 1993 (or Houston, or Kansas City) but you all think what you will. LOL! I guess it's what keeps the people coming back year after year after year after.......
