 Dan Marino, who holds 10 NFL regular-season quarterback records and is tied for four others, quarterbacked Miami for 17 years, positioning the Dolphins as perennial championship contenders throughout his career. Dan Marino was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in August 2005. Since his retirement after the 1999 season, Dan Marino has been a co-host of HBO's "Inside the NFL," cable television's longest-running series. A first-round draft pick by the Miami Dolphins in 1983, Dan Marino became an instant NFL sensation, setting the standard for quarterback excellence. Dan Marino became the only rookie quarterback ever to start the Pro Bowl (1983) and was named the NFL's Most Valuable Player in his second season (1984). The nine-time Pro Bowler (1983-87, 1991-92, 1994-95) played in 18 playoff games and led the Dolphins to the Super Bowl in 1985 against San Francisco. Dan Marino won the Dolphins' MVP Award 12 times, and the team has since named the award after him. Among the NFL records he holds are most passing yards (61,361) and most passing touchdowns (420). In the 1984 season alone, Dan Marino completed an incredible 48 touchdown passes and had the most prolific season by a passer in NFL history, with 5,084 yards. Dan Marino played college football at the University of Pittsburgh, where he earned a degree in communications and graduated as the Panthers' record holder in passing yards for a season and career, passes attempted for a season and career and touchdown passes for a season and career. One of three players ever to do so, Dan Marino twice won the Dolphins' Community Service Award (1996 and 1998), and he was named the NFL Man of the Year in 1998. For all of his achievements on the field, Dan Marino may best be remembered for his philanthropic work on behalf of children with developmental disabilities. Dan Marino and his wife, Claire, have established the Dan Marino Foundation, which provides over $1 million annually to support medical treatments, program services and research for children with chronic illnesses. Dan Marino now lives in South Florida with his wife and their six children.
