Don Shula Obsession Drives Dolphins Toward Super Bowl
Don Shula, famed Dolphins coach, pursues a second Super Bowl as he reshapes the team after a 3-10-1 collapse two seasons earlier. His drive mirrors Lombardi’s rise, with Griese and Warfield guiding a core of stars toward a return to New Orleans. He vows a camplike prep and insists the goal is the Super Bowl ball, not mere victories.
