The Greatest Games Of Miami Dolphins

The Dolphins set the NFL single-season rushing record, and running backs Csonka and Mercury Morris became the first teammates to each rush for 1,000 yards in a season. 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. In 1972 the Dolphins completed the NFL's first perfect season, winning 14 regular season games, two playoff games and Super Bowl VII, defeating the Washington Redskins 14-7. QB Griese fell victim to a broken leg and dislocated ankle in Week 5 versus the San Diego Chargers and was replaced by veteran Earl Morrall for the rest of the regular season, but returned to the field as a substitute during the AFC Championship game versus the Pittsburgh Steelers and then started in Super Bowl VII.

Miami rebounded from the 6–8 record in 1976 by winning ten or even more games in four in the next five seasons. Shula built a great defense around a fresh group of stars, including linebacker A.J. Duhe and linemen Bob Baumhower and Doug Betters. The Dolphins went 10–4 again in 1977, but again lost the division title (and playoff spot) towards the Colts. They made the playoffs as a wild card in 1978, but lost in the first round to the Houston Oilers 17-9.

Csonka returned towards the Dolphins on time for that 1979 season. After winning the division having a 10–6 record, the Dolphins lost the divisional playoff 34–14 into the eventual Super Bowl champion Pittsburgh Steelers at Three Rivers Stadium.

The Dolphins were back up at the top on the AFC East within the 1981 NFL season, by having an 11–4–1 record. That season, the Dolphins quarterback position was actually manned by both Woodley and back-up quarterback Don Strock, causing the neighborhood media to recognize the Miami quarterback as "Woodstrock." They reached the divisional playoff contrary to the San Diego Chargers, referred to as The Epic in Miami and remembered as probably the most memorable games in NFL history, After being down 24–0 following the end from the first quarter, back-up quarterback Don Strock entered the overall game and engineered a frenetic comeback, culminating within the historic "Hook and Lateral" play, by which wide receiver Duriel Harris caught a pass from Strock and immediately lateralled the ball towards the streaking running back Tony Nathan for that score about the last play with the half, which cut the Chargers result in 24–17. As soon as Dolphins took charge within the 4th quarter, San Diego tied up 38–38 with within minute to experience. Chargers tight end Kellen Winslow, playing through exhaustion, blocked Uwe von Schamann's field goal put on the final play of regulation. In overtime, Von Schamann had another field goal attempt blocked, and Rolf Benirschke kicked the overall game-winner for San Diego (final score 41-38) after missing a chip shot field goal earlier. Strock finished the overall game with 403 passing yards and 4 touchdowns.
