Whats your rate for 'The Perfect Season' 1972 Dolphins @ Super Bowl VII? #LarryBrownShutdown

Great question. For the "Perfect Season", and out of sheer integrity, I would have to give the '72 Dolphins the highly coveted, super rare, 10.0. As for the game itself, Super Bowl VII, my research tells me that the overall game lacked the excitement and entertainment of a true classic. The final box score of Dolphins 14 - Redskins 7, can be a bit misleading as the Dolphins led 14-0 heading into the 4th quarter. That lone Redskins touchdown was merely window dressing, a footnote on the final page of the final chapter of the only Perfect Season the NFL has ever seen. I give SBVII an 8.6 on historical significance and the fact that it (still) remains as the icing on the proverbial perfect cake.

Chiefs vs 49rs, I’d rate 4.5 but Usher HT show was such a banger immediate extra 2 points. Total: 6.5
