GOOD LUCK TO ALL BIDDING BUY WITH CONFIDENCE From a PlatinumThanks MartyThe 1972 Miami Dolphins are the only National Football League team to have a "Perfect season", and win the Super Bowl, following the 1970 AFL-NFL merger. Their undefeated campaign was led by coach Don Shula and notable teammates Bob Griese, Earl Morrall, and Larry Csonka (among many others). This team went 14-0 in the regular season (prior to the extension of the regular season by the NFL), and won all three playoff games, including Super Bowl VII against the Washington Redskins, for a season record of 17-0. As of 2008, the 1972 Dolphins remain the only NFL team to complete an entire season undefeated from the opening regular season game through the Super Bowl. During the 1972 season, Bob Griese's ankle was broken while being sacked by defensive tackle Ron East in Week 5 against the San Diego Chargers and was replaced by veteran Earl Morrall for the rest of the regular season, with Griese returning to the field as a substitute during the AFC Championship game versus the Pittsburgh Steelers and would once again start for Miami in Super Bowl VII. On the ground, running backs Larry Csonka and Mercury Morris became the first teammates to each rush for 1,000 yards in a season. The offensive line included future Hall of Fame members Jim Langer and Larry Little and Pro Bowler Bob Kuechenberg. The 1972 Dolphins defensive unit, called the No-Name Defense because Miami’s impressive offense received much more publicity, was the league’s best that year. It was led by linebacker Nick Buoniconti, end Bill Stanfill, tackle Manny Fernandez, and safeties Dick Anderson and Jake Scott. Place a Bid!
