“That film did more for NFL Films, and in a way, for the Super Bowl, than any subsequent film we ever did, and it was because of Hank’s personality. … That’s the game that made the Super Bowl.”

The NFL Network series on the AFL history made some good points about Superbowl IV - but the media always puts more emphasis on Namath and his prediction to win Superbowl III. Sure, it was the first AFL win but it would always be considered a fluke if the Chiefs hadn't won IV. Maybe the merger would have never happened. Think about the NFL dominating the AFL for several Superbowls in a row at the beginning. . . exactly.

How about some t-shirts? "Super IV The Game that made the Superbowl" I guess only the old timers would buy it - never mind.
