As of today we DO NOT have a losing record against the Raiders all-time.

We lost our first game ever to them in 1966 and have been trying to catch up ever since. A loss to the Raiders used to be a given for us. This is a milestone for this franchise that really means a lot to all of us old-timers.

Make no mistake this was a big win.
 
They said during the broadcast we were 16-19-1 vs Raiders all time, 1-3 in the playoffs.
Now we would be 17-19-1.
 
I just checked and we are tied in regular season matchups 16-16 (and 1 tie). They lead us 3 games to 1 in the playoffs. Still, I remember when it seemed like we'd always lose to them, so every victory is great to me.

Up until a few years ago we were undefeated against several franchises including Green Bay, the Cardinals, Carolina, and Atlanta. Those have all gone by the boards now.

The Redskins are the only remaining team that has never beaten us in Miami. The last few years, a lot of teams notched wins against us that had not won in MIA in a long time, if ever. We have wins in all other NFL cities (we beat the Oilers in Houston in the day). Back on the Raiders subject, it took us until 1997 to finally win in Oakland.

We still have never beaten the Houston Texans (in a regular season game).

Unless I am wrong, Green Bay, the NY Giants, and maybe Tampa Bay have never beaten us in Miami. Several teams last beat us in Miami back before Shula came (Cincinnati is one that I believe is in that category). We have wins in all other NFL cities (we beat the Oilers in Houston in the day).

Fiedler beat the Radiers in the Playoffs. In my day, we've owned the Raiders. I guess your days are older than mine therein1972 because I wasn't there :(

Green Bay's only win in Miami was 8 years ago 34-24. Tampa Bay's only win in Miami was in 2000 in that downpour 16-13. And the Giants are actually 2-0 all time in Miami. I know Denver had never won in Miami until that Tebow OT game ugh.

I don't recall this - I remember Feebler beating the Colts in the post season but then I thought the next week we lost to the Raiders in the playoffs

Remember this one in the regular season.

MIAMI (AP) -- Only seconds remained when New York native Jay Fiedler dove for the end zone, holding the ball above his head like a rugby player and skidding across the goal line for the winning touchdown as the crowd erupted.

Correct.

From 1966 to 1996 the Raiders were 10-1 when playing the Dolphins at home. Since 1997, the Raiders have lost five out of their last six home games against the Dolphins. Their only win coming in 2000, when the Raiders beat the Dolphins 27-0 in the playoffs.
