The Buccaneers–Dolphins rivalry is between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Miami Dolphins of the National Football League. It is an in-state, interconference, matchup between the two oldest NFL teams in the state of Florida. It has been active in most years since the Buccaneers joined the league as an expansion team in 1976. The rivalry is primarily confined to the preseason, as the teams have been in different conferences since 1977 and do not play one another during the regular season every year. The Dolphins are part of the AFC East. The Buccaneers are currently part of the NFC South. According to the current NFL scheduling format, the two teams play each other every four years during the regular season, rotating the host site each meeting. In addition, the two clubs play each other during the preseason every year, with the site rotating on a mostly regular basis. The two teams have never met in the playoffs. Currently, the only circumstance in which the two teams could meet during the postseason would be in the Super Bowl. The ten regular season meetings have been characterized in most cases as relatively low-scoring affairs, and oftentimes close. Eight of the ten have been decided by ten or fewer points, while six have been decided by a field goal. Though the in-state rivalry has no official nickname, it has sometimes been referred to as the "Sunshine Series."〔 ==History== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Buccaneers–Dolphins rivalry」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
