Tags: National Football League Season.
The 1976 Miami Dolphins season was the team’s 11th as a member of the National Football League. The Dolphins failed to improve on their previous season’s output of 10–4 winning only six games. One of these wins came over their new in-state rivals the Tampa Bay Buccaneers – who proceeded to lose all 14 games that year. The 6–8 finish marked the first losing record of head coach Don Shula’s career.
