The 1966 Houston Oilers season was the seventh season for the Houston Oilers as a professional AFL franchise; The team failed to improve on their previous output of 4–10, winning only three games.[1] The Oilers failed to qualify for the playoffs for the fourth consecutive season, and were swept by the expansion Miami Dolphins. With that, they became the first team in the Super Bowl era from either league to be swept by an expansion team. This wouldn't happen again until 1995 when the Cleveland Browns were swept by the Jacksonville Jaguars.
