The Miami Dolphins are an American football team that competes on a professional level and is based in the Miami metropolitan area.
They are a group that plays for the National Football League (NFL), the country’s top-tier professional football league, in the American Football Conference (AFC) East division.
The team plays all of its home games at Hard Rock Stadium, situated in Miami Gardens, Florida’s northern suburbs. The Miami Dolphins are the first team in NFL history to win back-to-back Super Bowls while simultaneously finishing the regular season undefeated.
The Dolphins achieved this feat in 1972 and 1973. They were led by Don Shula, who, when looking at the total number of games won, is regarded as the most successful head coach in the annals of professional football.
Dan Marino, a quarterback for the Dolphins, led them to five division championships, ten postseason appearances, and a trip to Super Bowl XIX before announcing his retirement after the 1999 season.
For the first time in NFL history, the Dolphins went 1–15 in 2008 before winning their division and making the playoffs. This year,
the Dolphins beat the New England Patriots at Gillette Stadium in Week 3 owing to their Wildcat offence, which was the Patriots’ first regular-season loss since December 10, 2006, when they were also beaten by the Dolphins.
The Dolphins’ last AFC East title came in 2008, their most recent season of success.
