You're way off my friend. I'm looking for the number of times Miami has beaten a defending SB Champion. In other words, beating a team that won the SB the previous season. Most of the wins you listed are against teams 2 years after winning SBs. You're right with the Broncos in '99, but you need to look again.

jets won the SB in 69, the dolphins beat em twice in 70. the colts won the SB in 71 and the fins shut em out twice in 72 and so on..................check it out!
 
Look at it this way. The Patriots right now are the defending SB Champs. Right? Of course. Going by the way I put it, that was the 2001 season. Going by the way you're seeing it is the SB was played in 2002, and their next season would be in 2003. That's not the case. If you're looking at the actual year the SB was played, you have to figure the season in the same year of that SB as the following season.

Yesterday, the Dolphins beat the defending SB Champs, who won the SB as a result of their 2001 season, not the 2002 season.

i was a day late and a dollar short. i took say, a 1969 SB winner and looked at 1970 for the fins games instead of the same year. i was completely wrong, i'll check back later!;)

That's it! The one playoff win was a 21-0 win over the Colts in the '71 season BTW. :D
