Friday: General Knowledge
What is the only team in the NFL to have a perfect season (winning every game, including the Super Bowl)?
Hint: This NFL team achieved an unprecedented feat in 1972 by winning every game, including the Super Bowl—something no other team has accomplished.
The Miami Dolphins remain the only team in NFL history to achieve a perfect season, winning every game, including the Super Bowl, during their 1972 season.
Under head coach Don Shula, the Dolphins finished the regular season 14-0, then went on to win all their playoff games, culminating in a 14-7 victory over the Washington Redskins in Super Bowl VII. This remarkable feat has never been matched, though the 2007 New England Patriots came close, going 16-0 in the regular season before losing to the New York Giants in Super Bowl XLII. The Dolphins' undefeated season remains a historic milestone in professional football, and members of the team are known to celebrate each year when the last remaining undefeated team loses, preserving their unique record.
What about the other answers?
New England Patriots: Went undefeated in the 2007 regular season but lost Super Bowl XLII.
Pittsburgh Steelers: A historically successful team, but never achieved a perfect season.
Chicago Bears: Had a dominant 1985 season but lost one regular-season game.
