1992 Miami Dolphins season


The 1992 Miami Dolphins season was the franchise's 27th season in the National Football League.
The season began with the team attempting to improve on their 8–8 record in 1991.
The season was a success as the Dolphins finished the season 11–5, won the AFC East and returned to the playoffs after a one-year absence. After beating the Chargers 31-0 in the Divisional Playoffs, they played host to their AFC East rivals the Buffalo Bills in the AFC Championship Game. However, 5 turnovers and a huge disparity in the running game meant they lost the game 29-10.
As of 2020, this was the last time the Dolphins have made the AFC Championship Game.
