ABOUT

Established in 1965 the Miami Dolphins are the oldest professional sports team in Florida. They made their professional football debut in 1966 as the ninth team to join the American Football League. Miami became the first National Football League club to ever have a flawless season six years later. The 1972 Miami Dolphins finished their perfect 17-0-0 season by defeating the Washington Redskins 14-7 in Super Bowl VII after winning the AFC Eastern division and AFC titles. The Dolphins, who were established by Joseph Robbie, also had a flawless opening game in their inaugural AFL season. Dan Marino, a quarterback, developed into one of the NFL's most prolific passers between the years of 1983 and 1999, setting multiple passing records for the league. Before retiring after the 1999 season, Marino coached the Dolphins to five division titles, ten playoff berths, and a Super Bowl XIX participation. Since then the Dolphins have only reached moderate levels of success in the NFL with only 4 playoff appearances. The Dolphins have been competing in the AFC East division of the NFL since 1970. The franchise is currently valued at around $4.6 billion by Forbes.
