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. Because of the impact of Hurricane Andrew, the Dolphins' scheduled Week 1 home game against New England was moved to Week 7 because both teams already had a bye scheduled for that week and could slot the rescheduled contest in without other changes being required.
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. Keith Jackson, who signed a four-year, $6 million contract,[1] made his Miami Dolphins debut in a 37–10 win versus the eventual AFC champion Buffalo Bills. Jackson recorded four receptions and 64 receiving yards, including a 24-yard touchdown score.[2]
In the Divisional Playoffs, Miami shut out the San Diego Chargers 31–0 and the following week they played host to their AFC East rivals, the Buffalo Bills. In the AFC Championship Game. 5 turnovers and a huge disparity in the running game led to a 29–10 loss.
As of 2024, this is the last time the Dolphins reached the AFC Championship Game.
