Having lost in the previous Super Bowl, the 1972 Miami Dolphins had something to prove, and coach Don Shula was obsessed with winning the big game. It was an era of cultural turmoil, and generational and cultural divides abounded on the team as well: There were long-haired party animals such as Jim "Mad Dog" Mandich, but also the crew-cut savior, 38-year-old backup Earl Morrall. In telling the story of football's only perfect season, Marshall Jon Fisher shares how this diverse group found a way to meld seamlessly into a team.
