    I wish I could find the article I read a few days ago, but it was by a CBS writer discussing the curse of the Miami Dolphins in 2016. While nobody knows how the actual curse started or why, it seems that every team the Dolphins have beaten are destined to lose all their remaining games. Take a gander at this-

    Miami beat the Browns, and they're 0-7 since.

    Miami beat the Steelers, and they're 0-3 since.

    Miami beat the Bills, and they're 0-2 since.

    Miami beat the Jets, and they're 0-1 since.

    Miami beat the Chargers, so they're destined to lose out as well. That's just how the curse seems to work.

    Now, some may believe that this is pure coincidence, but just take a look at the teams that have beaten us. Seattle, Tennesse, and the Patriots won...and they're all either leading or in a race to claim their divisions. So obviously this is a real thing- we just used math and science to prove it. =)

    And hey, I just found this article that claims Joe Robbie Stadium is built on an Indian burial ground. Since we just did all that construction and all, I bet that's what stirred up the curse in the first place! Now I know it's a real thing!

    I'm pretty sure it just takes a season to process the shame...

    I think the fact that Miami's D line is devastating QBs is the best scientific reason for the "curse".

    lol cool fact!

    It will end this week though as Pittsburgh plays Cleveland. However, I think putting Cleveland in there really doesn't count since they couldn't win before they played us. So if Pitt loses to Cleveland I think the "curse" theory can be kept alive. Bills play Bengals and Jets play Patriots so they both could lose too.
