Miami Dolphins

The Miami Dolphins are a professional American football franchise based in the Miami metropolitan area. Competing in the National Football League (NFL) as a member club of the American Football Conference (AFC) East division, the team was founded in 1966. The Dolphins play their home games at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida, and are recognized for their distinctive aqua and orange uniforms. The franchise experienced its greatest success in the early 1970s under head coach Don Shula, becoming the first and only team in NFL history to complete a perfect undefeated season in 1972, culminating in a victory in Super Bowl VII. They won back-to-back Super Bowls in 1972 and 1973, solidifying their place in football history.

The Dolphins are navigating a shifting power dynamic in the AFC East, with recent front office moves locking in stability for the roster. The organization has doubled down on the explosive offensive scheme led by head coach Mike McDaniel, securing the long-term future of quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. After a high-scoring 2023 season that narrowly missed the playoffs, the focus has shifted to defensive reinforcements and maintaining player health. The franchise aims to capitalize on its speed-oriented offense to challenge the Buffalo Bills for the division title and secure a deep postseason run in the upcoming campaign.
