The Miami Dolphins meet the Washington Commanders on Sunday in a rare meeting between the Super Bowl VII and Super Bowl XVII teams. Outside of the two games for the league championship, the Dolphins and Commanders franchise have only met 13 times, with the Dolphins leading the series 8-5. They last met in 2019, with Washington winning 17-16.
This year, the Dolphins are a team capable of making a run to a Super Bowl, while the Commanders are struggling down the stretch and have already started making coaching changes, firing defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio after last week’s loss to the Dallas Cowboys.
