Miami Dolphins Team History

The Miami Dolphins played its first game in 1966. They’ve won two Super Bowls, five conference championships, 13 division titles, and made 23 playoff appearances. Originally part of the American Football League, the Dolphins were originally founded by politician and attorney Joe Robbie and actor-comedian Danny Thomas.

The team made it to Super Bowl VI in 1972 but got blown away by the Dallas Cowboys 24-3. The following season the Dolphins became the only franchise in NFL history to have a perfect season, going 17-0 and winning their first of two consecutive Super Bowls.

Despite riding another wave of success in the 1980s, the Dolphins have fallen on tough times recently and have only qualified for the playoffs once since 2008. The most recognizable names in franchise history include Dan Marino, Larry Csonka, Jason Taylor, and Don Shula.
