Founded in 1966, the Miami Dolphins are the only undefeated team in NFL, doing so in the 1972 season. The Miami Dolphins have produced some of the best teams in recent memory, even without any Super Bowl wins since 1973. During the post-Dan Marino era, the Dolphins have struggled to replace the Hall of Famer. After a dismal 1-15 record in 2007, the Miami Dolphins are in a rebuilding phase under the careful eye of Bill Parcells. But, the Dolphins have already made giant strides in the off-season and are an entirely different animal from only a few months ago.
Rookie QB Chad Henne will be asked to be the long-awaited replacement for Dan Marino. First overall pick LT Jake Long will protect his blindside and open holes for RBs Ronnie Brown and Ricky Williams. Explosive WR/KR Ted Ginn, Jr. is a dynamic playmaker that can bust games wide open. The hybrid 4-3/3-4 defense is anchored by new NT Jason Ferguson and rookie DE Philip Merling. OLB Joey Porter is an elite pass rusher that takes pressure off of the young secondary, led by S Yeremiah Bell and CB /S Jason Allen.
First-year head coach Tony Sparano comes over from the Dallas Cowboys and brings a culture of winning to the ‘Phins. He will have a tough job ahead of him as the Miami Dolphins compete in the tough AFC East. The Buffalo Bills and New York Jets are tough competitors, but the big fish is the New England Patriots. Outside the division, the Miami Dolphins are scheduled to face rival Houston Texans, and take one elite teams like the Seattle Seahawks and the San Diego Chargers.
