Dolphins Ready to Challenge After Tumbling Season
The Miami Dolphins under Don Shula face a tougher path after a poor season marked by injuries and a drug scare involving two defensive linemen. Key players include Bob Griese if he stays, Don Strock readying as backup, and a receiving trio Nat Moore Freddie Solomon Duriel Harris. Strong lines with Jim Langer and Bob Kuechenberg, but defensive end Billy Stanfill and tackles Randy Crowder Don Reese worry. Linebackers Bokamper Gordon Towle and Matheson plus Babb Anderson Hill injuries loom. Garo Yepremian and Larry Seiple anchor kicking. Solomon Harris return kicks shine. Projected to finish no better than third in AFC East.
