They made a significant name for themselves in the 1972 season, earning the first and only perfect season in NFL history. Miami Dolphins football fans were proud to watch their team win all 14 regular season games, both NFL playoffs games and Super Bowl VII. During their early years, the team was led coach Don Shula who had winning records in 24 of his 26 season of coaching.The team performed solidly for many years and has produced six future football hall-of-famers.
