Don Shula, NFL's all-time winningest head coach and leader of undefeated 1972 Dolphins, dies at age 90

Don Shula coached 33 seasons in the NFL. He had two losing teams.

That’s just one remarkable feat from Shula, whose 347 wins are a record for an NFL coach. Shula, the coach of the only perfect team in NFL history, died Monday. He was 90.

Picking one Shula accomplishment over another is hard, but it’s probably safe to start with his 1972 Miami Dolphins.
