I was browsing PFRef.com and found some interesting information.

Teams with a winning record against all their division opponents:

DAL (including former division opponent ARI)
GB (including former division opponent TB)
SEA (but NOT including the AFC West)
PIT (including former division opponents TEN & JAX)
KC (including former division opponent SEA)
IND (but NOT including former division opponent...)
MIA (including former division opponent IND)

MIA has a 1 game lead on NYJ, 6 games on NE, 9 games on BUF.

You specifically chose "since realignment" to arrive at your intended destination.

The Lions haven't won a playoff game or a division title since 1991.
The Browns haven't won a division title since 1989.
The Jets have won the AFC East fewer times than the Colts, who left the division 20 years ago.
None of these teams have ever won their conference.

Feel free to start a thread in Anti-Fins Chat about how much the Dolphins suck.  This thread is about how MIA has a winning record against all of their division opponents, past and present.

Only if you don't count the games that matter most.

If you count the games that matter Jets increases to 2, NE falls to 5 and Bills drops to 7.

I don't find this list surprising. Hopefully the Phins stay on it for a while.

So if you count the games "that matter" (apparently more than games that win the division, or knock opponents out of the playoffs?), then the Dolphins... still have a winning record against every division opponent.  Good point, I guess?

Doesn't change the outcome in this situation.  But I feel strongly all records should include post season.

It wasn't that long ago that I remember Miami having the winningest record in the NFL. Then again I'm old so maybe it was ... LOL.

If you go by winning percentage, Miami sits at #6...  .553

Miami's peak overall win % was at the end of 1985 with .640.
