1993 Dolphins vs 1995 Raiders

Post by CSKreager »

Two of the all time collapse teams

The only teams to ever start 9-2/8-2, respectively, and miss the playoffs

Who was the better AFC blaze and fade squad?

Whats ironic is the Cowboys sent both teams on tailspins, though the Dolphins beat them on a dumb play by Leon Lett ... In those days you had to physically whip them to beat them and that was hard to do ...

Its hard to say who was better because the Dolphins might have had more talent but Marino got hurt and the Raiders had a more healthy Hostetler and a coach who was new to the job but a meddlesome owner in Al Davis, who always interfered with the coaching ...

Actually, Hostetler got hurt when they were 8-2 and missed most of the rest of the games.
