Um, sorry to mess with your memory, but that Christmas Day game in 1971 was unusually warm, it was around 63 degrees that day, which helped the Dolphins a bunch, because they were a warm weather climate team. A 20 degree day would have probably been an advantage for the Chiefs.
Yesterday's loss may have been worse in warmer weather, since San Diego is also a warm weather team.
