The Dolphins now become the team with the longest playoff drought in the NFL. Their last playoff win came in 2000. Since then, nada. They haven't been to an AFC Championship game since 1992. And last went to a Superbowl in 1984.
Some pundit noted that Mahomes has made 16 playoff starts (#17 is this weekend), and has been to all 7 AFC Championships while with the Chiefs.
Which reminds me to note that the Dolphins - in year 4 - are still trying to decide if Tua is any good. Take a look at the best QBs in the league, Mahomes included. Their success came early and often.
Anyway to the Dolphins all time playoff records:
Their heyday:
1970 0 - 1
1971 2 - 1
1972 3 - 0
1973 3 - 0
1974 0 - 1
The lean times:
1978 0 - 1
1979. 0 - 1
1981 0 - 1
1982 3 - 1 (okay maybe not so lean)
The Marino era:
1983 0 - 1
1984 2 - 1
1985 1 - 1
1990 1 - 1
1992 1 - 1
1994 1 - 1
1995 0 - 1
1997 0 - 1
1998 1 - 1
1999 1 - 1 (that drubbing in Jacksonville in Marino's last game)
Post Marino:
2000 1 - 1
2001 0 - 1
2008 0 - 1
2016 0 - 1
2022 0 - 1
2023 0 - 1
That makes the Dolphins 20 - 23 all time. Yikes.
They won two championships, so that means they've made the playoffs 25 times, and bounced in them 23 times.
