The 1967 Miami Dolphins season was the team's second in the American Football League (AFL). The Dolphins looked to improve on their 3-11 season from 1966, their inaugural season. The team would improve on it by 1 game, finishing the season 4-10 and finishing in 4th place in the AFL Eastern Division. The team began it's season with 2 straight bye weeks. In the first game, they beat Denver 35-21 to win their first ever season opener. However, the Dolphins would then struggle, losing 8 straight games before beating the Buffalo Bills 17-14 at home. The Dolphins would go winless on the road during this time. However, as a bright note, the Dolphins scored 40 points in back-to-back games. They defeated the San Diego Chargers 41-24, and then defeated the Boston Patriots 41-32, both at home, thereby becoming the fastest expansion team in NFL history to ever score 40 points twice in a row during a season.
Note: Tie games were not officially counted in the standings until 1972.
