    Underrated Streak by Underrated Group | Pro Football Hall of Fame Official Site (profootballhof.com)

    "The Miami Dolphins are known primarily for three things:

    • The only perfect, undefeated season in NFL history (1972)
    • Don Shula
    • Dan Marino
    While those three points deserve every second of credit they get for their accomplishments, I proposed adding a fourth:

    • The 1982-1990 streak/record for fewest sacks allowed
    From 1982 through 1990, nine seasons, the Miami Dolphins ranked first in the NFL for fewest sacks allowed each year. That is not a typo."

    Full article linked above.

    Worth a read!

    They were good,but with that quick release by Marino it was tough to get sacks.

    You beat me to it. I was just about to write the same thing (and almost word for word).
