About Miami Dolphins v Kansas City Chiefs

Divisional rivalries and quarterback pedigree aside, this fixture always draws a broad mix of travelling supporters and locals alike. Expect the usual pageantry of NFL matchdays, just with the sun still climbing rather than setting.

Where to stay nearby

West Hollywood sits closest to the stadium at around 9km out and has by far the widest hotel choice of the three bases, making it a practical first stop for matchday visitors. Hialeah is nearer still in relative terms and offers a handful of options for those who prefer a quieter, smaller-scale base. Miami itself is furthest at roughly 21km but has the deepest catalog of hotels by a wide margin, so it suits fans who want more choice or plan to combine the game with a longer stay in the city. Given the early Sunday kickoff, it's worth planning transport to the stadium the night before, whether by car, rideshare or shuttle service, as options may be limited in the early hours.

About Miami Dolphins

Miami joined the AFL as an expansion franchise in 1966, the marine name fitting a coastal city built around the sea. The Dolphins remain the only team in NFL history to complete a perfect season, going 17-0 in 1972 and capping it with victory in Super Bowl VII, a record no team has matched since; Miami won again the following year for back-to-back titles.

Coach Don Shula, whose tenure spans both championships and a later Dan Marino-led era of prolific passing without a further Super Bowl win, is the winningest coach in NFL history. Hard Rock Stadium's open-air design and Miami's heat and humidity remain a genuine test for visiting teams late in the season.

Miami Dolphins records & quirks

  • Miami beat Washington 14-7 in Super Bowl VII to cap the only perfect season in modern NFL history.
  • Starting QB Bob Griese broke his leg in week 5 of 1972; backup Earl Morrall won the next nine games.
  • Safety Jake Scott was named Super Bowl VII MVP.

About Hard Rock Stadium

Home to the Miami Dolphins and host of Super Bowls, Formula One's Miami Grand Prix and major concerts, Hard Rock Stadium occupies a suburban site in Miami Gardens, north of Miami proper. The surrounding area is largely residential, with Wynwood, Brickell and the beach cities a drive south. Broward County Transit buses serve the area, but most fans arrive by car or rideshare.

Booking a room in Miami Beach or downtown Miami keeps the city's electric dining and nightlife close, with rideshare a straightforward option to reach the stadium.
