- The 1972 Miami Dolphins football team remains the ONLY team in NFL history to have an undefeated season and secure a Super Bowl victory. They lead the league in offense and defense with a 17-0 record. In this short documentary, I take you through the 1972 season of the World Champions and greatest football team in NFL history.
- กีฬา
From 1970 through 1974 (5 seasons), Miami was 65-14-1 including the playoffs. Before 1970, Miami was 15-39-2 between 1966 and 1969. All thanks to Don Shula.
yes. The goat.
I was amazed by Shula. In 1985, the Chicago Bears thought they'd have the perfect season. But I have to think Shula is thinking "not so fast". Coach Mike Ditka for the Bears had been tight end for the Dallas Cowboys in the first Dolphins Super Bowl. And Ditka had caught a touchdown pass in that game. I cannot think that Shula wanted to get even.
Pittsburgh Steelers , 1972 - 1976 61 - 19 - 1 , Oakland Raiders , 1973 - 1977 , 63 - 17 - 1 , including post season 5 consecutive seasons. Miami Dolphins still number one
Earl Morrall is that unsung hero nobody knows about.
Joe Namath does
Agreed!!!!
All journeyman and mechanics are often overlooked but, when called upon…. there is no one better to trust. I know this from personal experience with more players from that team then were featured in this vid as well as Hank Goldberg, some time before he passed. Both Earl and Hank were in wheelchairs, Coach was still ambulatory but sadly, a later ‘fish’ couldn’t attend 75’s retirement roast due to cancer. Czonc flew out of Alaska, that’s harder than pulling teeth …. an amazing group of men, fathers, husbands and friends. Who put a 4ft gator in Coach’s shower in training camp?
The man played in 4 super bowls...
Winning 2....
NFL MVP 1 time...
And not to mention yards passing touchdowns and interceptions...
You didn't know who he was he would be in the Hall of Fame!
I've been telling people Trey Lance...IS NOT the "Earl Morrall" of the Niners...
The Niners, with JG, needed a backup that could get it done....and take over the reins in the long term
Purdy is that.
Go Niners.
Oh, yes, watching Morral get it done, was GREAT. I was in Key West for 7 years...one of which was the undefeated season
(So I root for Miami when they play any team other than my Niners
Earl Morrall deserves more credit than he ever got while he was alive. Great player and a very nice man who helped to save the Dolphins perfect season in 1972.
SixFeetUndr101 had the pleasure of meeting him several times. Tall man, and every bit a gentleman
There were several unsung players on that team. Howard Twilley, Marv Fleming, Jim Mandich, Larry Siepel and, others whose names escape me. I was in the bleachers watching almost every game. This was a magical time and place. The best "TEAM" ever.
He deserve a gold jacket

No black, no white, no brown, no politics.....just a team with all the love and respect! Thank you guys!!
I don't buy the "no politics" part. There were players, particularly black ones of the Dolphins (they were a minority on that team, unlike today), who were ready to follow the lead of Muhammad Ali and refuse to be inducted. The difference is they kept their beliefs to themselves, except for 17:52 publicity-seeking Mercury Morris. How do I know this? Joe Robbie, the Dolphins owner, had 11 kids and lived a few blocks away from us in Miami Shores. My mother became friends with Liz Robbie, Joe's wife, I had a couple of dates with daughter Debbie, my younger brothers played with their kids, and my mother would share a little team gossip she heard from Liz. My family moved to Houston (I stayed in Gainesville) in late 1973, and attended the Dolphins Super Bowl VIII win and the celebration in the Robbie's hotel suite. Alas, the connection faded just as the team did when the WFL stole Csonka, Kiick and Warfield with money the owners of the Memphis Southmen did not have. Both the team and those three players were never the same after that debacle. After Nixon's resignation in 1974, and Ford's refusal to prosecute the ex-president, the country was not the same either. Exhibit A: You know who.
Mark S. I guarantee you there was everything that you said there wasn’t. The difference is no social media in 1972.
Weird comment
@@AbdiqalisMohamud010 It's the mantra for excusing the ongoing existence of systemic injustices. Conservatives are always looking backwards to an imaginary time when the problems of today were rendered invisible by large-scale public ignorance. Thing is, by 1973, these issues were out in the open and haven't faded from view since then. They've only worsened, and are evident when looking at homeless encampments and noticing how most of those folks are white. The economics of it are a subject for another time, but they have transcended race and exposed the injustices for ALL to see.
Thank you 1972 Miami Dolphins.
The Greatest Regular Season team of all time, period!!!!
Most impressive thing about going 17-0 was the fact that they beat the Steelers in Pittsburgh!
The Steelers at that point had not lost in Three Rivers Stadium.
In '72, the Dolphins lead the league in scoring on offense and fewest points on defense....I was a young teen boy growing up in Florida and watched almost every game...they were loaded with All Star and HOF talent, and with Shula coaching them, they were a beast of a machine...Bob Griese summed it up best years later when he said "we were loaded with talented players that played with a reckless disregard for their bodies".
32-2 IN TWO YEARS....
think about it, they literally had the best triad running attack ever w/ a stellar HOF laden O line. then throw in a steely minded, highly intelligent & accurate qb in griese coupled w/ the greatest WR of that era to stretch & keep all D's honest. & dont forget having mandich & fleming, both super clutch... on D, highly intelligent, mistake free, tough D. best safety tandem perhaps ever & Manny was an animal at nose, w/ nick at mlb as a great tough leader who was high IQ to boot. the team was essentially an efficient machine like juggernaut.
Stfu
Im a from Florida too
@@kelvinkloud
Marino was a better qb than Griese. Without the running game Griese wouldn't have won anything. Those dolphins were the forerunner of all those great NFC east teams if the late 80s and early to mid 90s. Power football.

You’re right about that!!!!!
Rest In Peace coach.
The story of Earl Morrall should be made into an epic movie. There has NEVER been a player who contributed more with less recognition. After studying the "perfect season" for decades, I'm convinced the '72 Dolphins would not have gone undefeated had Griese stayed healthy. Few people realize what an athlete Morrall was. He played TWENTY-ONE years in pro football. How many players can claim that????
Not only him remember Briscoe Mandich and Twilley stepped up when Warfield was hurt
Thank you Miami dolphins 1970-74
Mercury Morris was so great that whenever he spun around while running, he would then run backwards all at full speed without skipping a beat! Wow, what a talent !!!
Love the freestyle mercury had in the beginning
jakevideos0826 Love me some Merc !
absolute legend
I was 12 years old when Shula's 72 Dolphins went 17 and O and won the first of 2 consecutive Superbowls. I was 13 years old when the Dolphins won their last Superbowl. I am just glad l was around back then to witness history.
I was 13 in '70 when Shula came to town...I still remember his Introductory press conference...some reporter asked Shula what kind of coach he was and Shula replied "I'm about as subtle as a punch in the nose".
He changed over the years didn't he? Went totally away from power football with Marino which always cost them in the playoffs and the one Super Bowl Marino got to
1972 Miami Dolphins. Simply the Best. Better than all the rest.

Went to Pittsburgh and beat the Steelers ...nuff said. Miss that team so much!
Exactly, and they shouldn't have had to do that
Great job Breanna. I was born in Newark, NJ in 1952. My parents moved to Miami when I was 3 yrs old. I became a DOLPHAN their first year (1968, and I was 13 yrs old) and they were absolutely awful, but it didn't matter to me because the city finally had an NFL team. When Shula signed to coach the team I knew this team would raise some hell in the league, and boy did they ever. Again, you did a fine job putting this together. It brought back memories, and although I no longer live in Florida the Miami Dolphins remain my HOME team, and I root for them every game.

Sure love to find all 14 games plus the playoffs on DVD.
is anything like that available?!!!
Mark Muffs a little bit of trivia, 16 of the 17 games were televised by NBC sports, the one that wasn't was a Monday night game against the St. Louis Cardinals (ABC SPORTS)
Mark Muffs I’m sure u can find it with a google search.
Mercury came with the bars!! 💯💯 🔥 🔥
Much respect to these older guys that paved the way for football as we know today 💯🏈 I love the work ethic they had
The NFL of today is a joke you can't hit anybody without drawing a flag
Great video!! The greatest team in the history of football. No one had done it before and no one has done it since.They also had the greatest three year run of any team. 32-2 over two years which has never been matched. 44-6-1 over three years which is still a record. 31 straight home victories which is still a record and has never really been approached. No other team has gone to three straight Super Bowls while winning two of them. They won the AFC Championship Game in Pittsburgh against a group of players that would go on to win four Super Bowls. I could go on...
Jim Woodle too bad their best coach left
I was born that year and I know it takes Hunger, Hate and Hustle to do what they did! WiN it All.
Nope patriots are better
@@exoszn6 not! lol
exo szn wrong
Shula said that when he wanted to bring Eral Morrall onto the team with a $75K contract that team owner Joe Roby told him hell no I'm not paying a backup QB that much but Shula convinced him they needed him and Roby relented. Without him there probably would have never been a perfect season. But make no mistake, the Steelers had the Dolphin's offense shut down in the AFC Championship game until Shula put Griese in to start the 2nd half.
I remember being a kid in Oregon we all loved the Miami dolphins , this team is the best of all time ,great absolutely great running back trio, with Bob griese, a defense that could hit you solid, I love this team and era
What a historic deep roster this team had and truly yes with Earl Morrall a back up QB led the Dolphins to 9 or 10 of those 17 wins no team could ever do it with a back up QB which makes this feat all the more impressive.I am proud to be a Dolphins fan went to my first Dolphins home game on October 23,2022 against the Steelers was worth flying from Hilo,HI and I really enjoyed the museum that honored the greatest TEAM in NFL history they were perfect in every aspect such an unselfish group of men that sacrificed self for Team that’s why this feat may never happen again because of the astronomical salaries these players make today and most teams don’t want to risk injuries once they clinch a playoff berth and will sit their starters.Only Bill Belichick truly knows the importance of this feat is why he pushed so hard to get it and fell just short of what only the great Don Shula has accomplished.
RIP Shula, My all time favorite coach.
'72 DOLPHINS ( Perfection )!
Great video! Dolphins are still the only team to win every game and the Super Bowl in history! Greatest team ever!
Go Dolphins!
The dolphins are fantastic

I Got to meet m.morris back in 94 One of the Coolest things Ever!.
1972 dolphins was a strong fast team 17-0 you got to love it!!!!
RIP Don Shula 😢
I love what Larry Little they were so good they didn't make a big deal about it not like teams today that are not good and make a big deal about a play they make in the first half
I was 12 when the 72 season went down. I still get goosebumps watching film and interviews of that team. In my mind they will always be the best team ever. They were number 1 in every category and had an unselfish mindset that will never be duplicated.
I'll never forget Griese getting his ankle broken and Earl coming in to relieve Griese. He takes them to 14-0. Griese comes back in time to start for the 1st playoff game. Earl didn't play another game. 17-0......thanku coach and team.
It’s 2023 May 7, I am early 40’s. I enjoyed watching Mercury Morris gloat about there 72’ season!! I really admire the sentiment Larry Csonka spoke about his teammates and Coach Don Shula and felt his passion and loneliness he spoke of. What a great Episode!!!!! RIP those who are not with us 72’ Dolphins and God speed with those still here, Congrats from some random guy!! :-)
Dolphins would have had to play in pittsburgh for the afc title game in 74 if they had won the sea of hands game vs the raiders. It should be remembered that swann, stallworth and lambert were all rookies in 74 and all played key roles in their 24-13 defeat of oakland at alameda coliseum in the 74 afc championship. Miami beat pittsburgh in 71, 72, and 73 but the steeler dynasty roster was not complete until 74. Mike Webster was also a rookie in 74 but unlike the other 3 aforementioned players did not play against the raiders in the steelers 24-13 win, not supplanting ray mansfield as the starting center until the 76 season. In the dolphins victories vs the steelers in 71, 72 and 73 it should also be noted that their defense did not fare particularly well while Bradshaw was playing in those games. Jake Scott likely would not have been ready to go vs pittsburgh along with curtis johnson as well. The steel curtain allowed all of 29 yards rushing vs oakland in the afc title game. Also of note is the fact that Vince Costello was running the defense and not Bill Arnsparger. Tough to see how Miami could have won at three rivers minus 2 starters in the secondary and playing on the road. I would predict a close loss. The shame was that 74 was the last year the home sites were rotated amongst the divisions. Under the system used today the first round would have seen buffalo at oakland and pittsburgh at miami. A first round that year at the orange bowl and going in with a healthy scott and johnson I would predict a dolphins win. Then a trip to oakland and if they stay healthy they likely win that too. Then a 3 peat vs the vikings in new orleans. Bottom line is the current seeding system would have resulted in pittsburgh at miami to determine just who would have been the team of the 70's. I'm betting it would have been miami.
Bill Arnsparger was the only Defensive coach to record 2 shut outs in the AFC Championship game in 2 Different decades , 1971 - 1982 . He REBUILT THE NO NAMES into the Killer Bs , Don Shula , failed to REBUILD The Rushing game in the 1980s , Had they had a good ground game , they might have won SB - 17 or SB - 19 although their defensive line was fast at 250 - 265lbs they were getting pushed around by the bigger Offensive lines of the early 1980s negating their quickness by being manhandled so that and the run game was their Achilles heel .
What makes this season more impressive is their starting QB got injured and the back up went in and they still won the rest of their games.
I loved this team so much. When my parents became citizens, they asked. What name do you want to go by. Dad from Francesco to Frank, my mom Rozalia to Rose. I as a 14 year old wanted the name Mercury, however that didn't happen
What diiiid happen?
48 years later ...😔
Greatest team ever......in any sport. Talent, Teamwork, no ego.....
Congratulations on a Job Well Done.
This record will stand forever. Teams now have too many "Individuals" who care about Money instead of their teammates.
Bud Grant is the coach who couldn't win the big one...4 times he couldn't...my Vikings 💜💛
Earl Redding the real og fan since 1970 same year DON came I love my phins greatest team ever believe records are made to b broken this record going to take a long long time win or lose love you phins peace
I was born in1970 in Florida so I'm a Dolphin fan still a fan I like for us to win one more SB before I get to old to really enjoy football GO finns (#FINUP)
Man oh man! I was at the San Diego game at the Orange Bowl when Griese went down (as well as two other games that year). I'll never forget my mother sitting next to me rocking back and forth going, "Oh no, oh no!" watching him rolled off the field. But fortune shined. Earl Moral became the greatest backup QB in history. We've had a few ups and lots of downs since then, but last week a new era began in Miami... IT'S TUA TIME! Let the new dynasty begin! Phins forever!
I hope your hope for Tua comes true. The questions about his concussions threaten to undo your expectations. I hope something changes that.
My elementary school library had the "perfect season" book and I borrowed it every time i could !!! 🐬🏈🌞🐬17 - 0 my favorite team ever 72'
I was 12, can remember that season forever.
Still perfect season 17-0
I want, no I NEED that Mercury Morris rap at the end on mp3!
19:10 the moving cart with the Dolphin is so funny
greates team in history. theyll come back soon enough.
Yeah when they get a good ownerand GM. The jury is still out on your new coach who is from the belichick coaching tree and you know how those coaches including seemingly Matt Patricia work out.
The season didn't mean crap until they won the Super Bowl. People gave them zero respect throughout that season because of their schedule and that's why they were underdogs going into the Super Bowl. The AFC was still looked at as overall inferior.
What was real special was they went undefeated with a backup QB most of the season
This is a great observation- the AFC was weaker than the NFC in 1970 and 1972 and even though Baltimore did win it in 1970 they were considered as part of the old NFL. The 1972 Dolphins signaled a changing of the Guard, with them the Steelers and Raiders it took until the 1977 season for an NFC team to win a Super Bowl
Rest In Peace
i remember, i was just 21 yrs old, and every one on that team was the greatest, they were all my idle, no team will ever match them
Randy Kuleszasr Idol
Randy Kuleszasr I still remember the year before vs Colts in playoffs. My Mom Dad and I at the supper table that Sunday PM. Watched Dick Anderson in the greatest pick six I’ve ever seen. Those blocks !
Miami has the Dolphins.....the greatest football team....
born and raised in Miami ,went to several of these games, I remember all the horns honking after we won the superbowl
Thank you for the video!
This video should be shown to each Dolphins team at the beginning of each year.
Because that's what it means to wear the Dolphins uniform (btw, best unis ever!)
No the ones from the 70s thru the Shula era were the best. There were a few minor changes but overall they were pretty much the same. Even from the Jimmy Johnson years up until a few years ago the unis still looked enough like the originals. Then they went and came up with the stupid swimming dolphin and took alot of the orange out 8f the uni and lightened up the aquamarine color
Absolutely loved this! I was a young child growing up in south Florida then, and that magical season cemented my life long dedication. Instant follow!
Mercury Morris the rapper cracks me up. Rap music wasn't even a thing when he was playing!
DEM DOLPHINS!!!!!! DA BOYZ!!!!!! And we gone do it again!!!!! GO DOLPHINS!!!!!
so awesome, a state like florida deserves the BEST team of the league - best state = best team
I disagree. California is the best state.
@Bruno Florida rocks and so does Indiana
I was there. Great memories from the Orange Bowl.
50 Years and The Miami Dolphins are still the only Undefeated Team In NFL History! 17-0 Fins Up! Miami Dolphins are winning the Super Bowl This Year Watch! Tua and the rest of the team are going to shut the haters up! Mark my words!
People say they didn't play teams that had good records. You play to win. On any given Sunday a 1-6 team can beat a 7-0 team. It has happened many times before and still today. There were a lot tight games and they won them. The Playoff teams they played were good and they beat them.
It is actually stated that the 1975 Minnesota Vikings played worse teams than the 1972 Dolphins. And the 75 Vikings lost to 2, 4-10 teams in that season and not to mention they lost in the Divisional Round by the visiting Dallas Cowboys in the famous Hail Mary Game.
@@justinturley7071 The Vikings' regular-season losses in 1975 were to Washington, who finished 8-6, and Detroit, who finished 7-7.
I was at game 5, north side bleachers, about 2/3 the way up at about the 35. Hot as balls that day. Remember that game vividly
How good were they that day as you were watching.
@@waynejohanson1083 dominant. Simple as that
This team was as good as it gets! Today the teams that are undefeated late in the year always blow it! This Miami team had a tough AFC playoff run, but still managed to win, and win the championship in Pittsburgh!
thank you for this fabulous video tribute. just wish they were half as good nowadays.

RIP Coach Shula
Shula, all time winningest NFL coach! 33 seasons, only 2 losing records. Nuff said.
Critics like to argue the '72 Dolphins had a weak schedule, playing only three games against teams that ended up with a winning record, but consider these facts:
1. They played the Chiefs in an epic playoff game the year before and had them on the '72 schedule. Who knew they would be bad in '72?
2. They had a career backup, 38-year-old quarterback most of that season in Earl Morrall after Griese went down.
3. There was no home field advantage for the AFC title game. Miami had to win IN PITTSBURGH!
The biggest regret I have about that Super Bowl was Shula got greedy. He wanted to win that game 17=0 to finish 17-0. Garo was kicking low line drives all day and was attempting a long FG. Shula should have had Seiple punt. Even if it's a touchback, there would be less than two minutes, and Washington did not have all its time outs. They needed two scores. The No-Name defense would have shut the Redskins down as it had all afternoon. So Miami would have had, to date, the only Super Bowl shutout, 14-0 instead of 17-0.
The other teams were crappy BECAUSE they played the Dolphins!
The biggest break the Dolphins got that year was when Oakland got eliminated by the Immaculate Reception. Oakland matched up with Miami better than anyone else in the NFL. A Dolphin-Raider conference championship game would have been a dead even matchup.
Miami had less pressure on them in 1973, however, and avenged an early season loss to Oakland by defeating them pretty easily in the AFC Championship game that year.
The 1972 Chiefs finished 8-6, below expectations, but I can't really consider it bad.
Great video, go Fins!!
Fins up! Dolphins will probably remain undefeated forever.
Of course they will even if someone else goes undefeated and wins the super bowl. That can't be taken away from them ever
@@mm-gl7sz, I’m betting that the Kansas City Chiefs are the only modern team that can go undefeated in the regular season and win it all.
Mercury Morris,...Was so fast & with Unbelievable Moves,...He was Far ahead of the Times & teamed wit, Csonka, Kick, !!!,.. They saw 73 team was better then 72,...& Unfortunately Stabler got that off in Sea a Hands, in 74,...Believe Dolphins Would a Been 1st, to 3 Peat, & Still Hold that Record Today !!!!
That cocaine made him run, lol
Always a JACKASS?ASSHOLE to come in with a shit-brained remark! #superboombitch
4 practices a day. That is insane. No wonder why there were so good.
So many teams try to go undefeated
The '84' 49ers
The '85' Bears
The '07' Patriots
The '10' Colts
The '11' Packers
The '15' Panthers
The one thing reason why they had that lost they where to confint to easliy relaxed to win and they choked but these '72' Dolphins had to stay focus to beat every team to make them puke out blood and vomit meaning they will not beat
The pats went 18-0 and won more games. The dolphins played against bums they never faced a playoff team in the regular season.
but lost the super bowl
@@mm28778 18-1*
It is impossible to understand what you wrote, please edit your comment

What the 1972 Miami Dolphins did will never happen for any other football team because it is just so hard to do 👍
No doubt. The greatest team of all time
Everybody forgets, or doesn't know, that despite being undefeated, Miami had to travel to Pittsburgh for the AFC championship game.
GM Joe Thomas set up the players. But with Shula coming, it was understood that Shula would be GM. But coach Monte Clark was the guy who brought Jim Langer and traded veteran Bob DeMarco. The chemistry of him and Bob Kuechenberg really launched the 3 headed monster.
Rip bob kuechenberg
What was the three headed monster? Csonka/Kick/Merc?
I remember the 84 Dolphins were 11-0 before finally losing their first game in OT to San Diego. The 49ers had the best record in the league, overall and in the regular season, but they had lost before the Dolphins. Miami went 16-0 that year against teams that weren't from the state of California, but 0-3 against teams that were.
Well in 84 Marino didn't have to face Bruce Smith Cornelius Bennett or Jim Kelly and co
@@mm-gl7sz Wow, you're a salty one aren't ya?
@@filthyswitI'm not salty. What I said was true the record he had against those guys speaks for itself. But in 84 he did have to face Montana and the 49ers and pretty much the same thing happened. But I will tell you I would rather that those Marino Dolphins or the Kelly Bills were the ones winning the 6 Super Bowls for the AFC east rather than the cheaters in New England. I hope now that Brady is gone that they are at least no better than mediocre for the rest of Belichicks career. At least the Dolphins and their coach had class except for maybe Bryan Cox. But even he was that way because earlier in his career he didn't have control over his emotions and for some reason Shula couldn't bring him under control. Neither could Dave Wannstadt in Chicago. It took Cox playing first for Parcells with the Jets and then Belichick (one of the few things that Belichick can be admired for)for him to channel those emotions solely on playing and not flying off the handle. I never could figure out why Shula was never able to get him to channel all that energy because he was one of those coaches who was the best at it.
@@mm-gl7sz I agree about the Pats of course. Anybody but them. As for Miami's competition in 1984:
31 and 45 points against Pittsburg's defense which was ranked 5th in the league.
34 points and over 500yds against the 3rd ranked Raider's D.
31 points and over 400yds against Seattle's 6th ranked D.
28 points and almost 400yds against the Cowboys 7th ranked D in a must-win for the Cowboys.
44 and 28 points against the Pats 9th ranked D
7 games (not including the SB) against teams with top 10 ranked defenses and they averaged 34.4 points per game. Explain.
Twelve fans of The Patriots disliked this documentary
I am not sure if this was already mentioned, but Don Shula was the coach in half of the first 8 SBs.
Thank you Brenna!
RIP Jim Kiick
My favorite. And bill stanfill you never hear about
GOD BLESS ELI!!!!!!
We will never know how great they really were that year because they never lost
Anderson and Scott made up one of the best safety pairs ever.
My dad is a die hard fins fan
great documentary ...yup downloaded it to my collection...
THE 2020 DOlPHINS WILL GO UNDEFENDED IN MIAMI
Professor Wiesy - hope u have predicted correctly !!! We’ll be watching, God willing !!!
Hope so!
I pray the lord that one day that we'll be in and win the Superbowl one day again.
No not going to happen bills will still be bad but finish ahead of them. It is still the Patriots division to win or lose as long as they have Brady and Belichick
They won't go undefeated but might go undefended when they have a bad record so you might be right about thst
Well done. Please produce more
I was at Palmetto Jr High when the Great Fins went Undefeated. Family members used to drive to Orlando during the blackout games. I was always in trouble,so I couldn't go 🤪
Wow! I was there too! Just a year under you. I went there the next year. So you were in 8th when i was in 7th grade. Man, I remember the great pride we had that our Dolphins were #1!!
Fantastic documentary! Thank you for putting this classic footage together!
THE DAYS OF THE POWER FULLBACK BEING DOMINANT! I MISS SMASH MOUTH FOOTBALL AS THAT'S THE WAY WE PLAYED IN THE DAY! CSONKA IS DEFINITELY ONE OF MY FAVES AS WAS JIM TAYLOR, BILL BROWN.
1972 Dolphins went 14-0, won ALL playoff games, and also won the Super Bowl the same year to go 17-0 including playoffs
