Which was rigged. As ****.
Don Shula FINALLY puts Unitas in (shades of Marty and Gannon, 1995), AND UNITAS ALMOST PULLS IT OFF.
In fact, down 16-7 in the 4th, Shula ESCHEWS A FG ATTEMPT that would have made the game 16-10 and within reach with an onside kick...
3 years later, he's in South Beach taking the expansion Dolphins to the Super Bowl and the NFL's only perfect season. Unitas gets his in SB V, the worst Super Bowl ever and the worst SB winning team ever...besides maybe the 2015 Broncos.
In fact...Super Bowl 50 was a replay of Super Bowl V. With Peyton ****ing Manning starring as Johnny ****ing U.
Speaking of Johnny U, in 1965 the Colts and Packers finished in a tie for first place in the Western Conference and a one-game playoff was played in Green Bay to decide who would be the conference representative in the 1965 NFL Championship Game. Johnny U got hurt. The Colts lost in overtime 13–10 due in large part to a game-tying field goal by Don Chandler that many who were in attendence say was incorrectly ruled as 'good'.
Makes sense, because by that point, Johnny U was one of the leagues biggest stars, as were Bart Starr and Lombardi's Pack.
Given the choice of a Unitas-less Baltimore team or a star-studded Packer dynasty, the refs called a missed kick 'good' in order to manipulate a desired outcome. What's anyone going to do about it??
Next thing, splatbass is going to tell me about how the NFL is going to do an 'America's Game' on Johnny U's final season in San Diego
