Direct, frank commentary and
skillful use of a telestrator during
replays have helped distinguish
Griese as an insightful and
enlightening analyst. He was a top
analyst for NBC Sport's NFL coverage
from 1982 through 1986.
In
addition to his regular season NFL
and NCAA broadcasts, he has also
covered numerous post-season bowl
games, including the NFL Super Bowl
XX, college football's Aloha Bowl,
Fiesta Bowl, Sugar Bowl, Orange Bowl
and the Rose Bowl.
Known as the "thinking man's
quarterback" during his brilliant
14-year NFL career with the Miami
Dolphins (1967-1980), Griese was
renowned for his poised leadership
and ingenious play-calling during
the Dolphin's dominance of the NFL
in the early 1970s. He helped lead
Miami to a perfect 17-0 record in
the 1972 season, when the Dolphins
won their first Super Bowl title,
and the following year, led Miami to
a second consecutive Super Bowl
championship.
Griese's jersey, #12, is the only
one to have been retired by the
Miami Dolphins. He was one of the
original group of players named to
the Dolphin Honor Roll, established
to honor the most outstanding
individuals in Dolphin history. He
was elected by the fans to be the
quarterback of the Dolphin's Silver
Anniversary team, commemorating
their first 25 years. Griese was the
first quarterback to wear eyeglasses
while playing, and a pair of his
glasses is on exhibit in the Pro
Football Hall of Fame.
A
Two-time All-American at Purdue,
voted All-time Quarterback for
Purdue's first 100 years, and named
to the inaugural class of the
Boilermaker Athletic Hall of Fame,
Griese is a member of the National
Football Foundation's College Hall
of Fame.
Griese is President of Jack Harding
Miami Chapter of the National
Football Foundation and College Hall
of Fame, serves on the Board of the
Don Shula Foundation, and is an
active member of the Orange Bowl
Committee.
