The 72 Dolphins didn't have Bob Griese in at quarterback for most of the season, only 5 games. Earl Morrall was the QB for 9 of the games.

They really didn't need a star QB because they had Larry Csonka and Mercury Morris who both rushed for over 1000 yards for the season. The offense was rated #1 for the 72 season.

They also had the #1 defense in the NFL in 72.

This is something you don't really see in the NFL anymore. Those punishing running backs who used to run over people. Though I never rooted for them (Houston Oilers), I always liked watching Earl Campbell run dragging 3 defensive players with him. Bo Jackson was the same way (Raiders). John Riggins (Redskins).

There really is no debate about who is the best QB ever. Tom Brady (Mr. Clutch)
