    This season has been an amazing one for the Miami Dolphins below are a few records that may be broken this year by our beloved Fins.

    - 1st team to go from 1-15 the previous year to 10+ wins the next season. (1992 Indianapolis Colts and the 1997 NY Jets both followed their 1-15 seasons with 9 wins)

    - Miami Dolphins single season sack record 18 1/2 currently held by Bill Stanfill (1973) and Jason Taylor (2002). Joey Porter stands at 16 1/2 with 3 games to go.

    _ Fewest turnovers in a single season (14) held by the 1990 NY Giants. Miami is on track to set the record currently with 10 (6 INT and 4 fumbles lost).

    Please feel free to add any other records that may be broken by the 2008 Dolphins. Here's to the 2008 Miami Dolphins........:beer:

    With 11 wins, we would Tie Colts for greatest 1 season turn around for # of wins. Colts went from 1998 3-13 to 1999 13-3 (10 wins). Phins would go 1-15 to 11-5 (10 wins).

    Also, Jets and Colts following their 1-15 seasons didnt make the payoffs with 9 wins. We can make the playoffs and be the first 1-15 franchise to turn it around the following season including playoff qualification.

    Giants turnover total is 14 '90. I thought Chiefs only turned it over 12 times in '82?

    How many games were played in 82? I think it was only 9 games. Wasn't there a lock out or something that year? Also, didn't Miami go to the SB that year and lose the the DAMN Redskins?

    14 is fewest for a 16 game season I think.
