Re: Who Here Saw The Skins First Superbowl?
Miami's defense controled that SB game, and I was so despondent because Sonny Jurgensen wasn't able to play. It's believed by many that the Dolphins would not have won that game had Sonny been healthy.
We had difficulty controlling Larry Csonka & Mercury Morris, [espically Csonka] and the Dolphins controled the clock, and played great defense. Our only score came on a botched FG atempt. The holder mishandled the snap and the Dolphins kicker, Garo Y [sp] picked up the ball and atempted a pass that was intercepted by mike bass and returned for a TD. That was our highlight play of the game. Sonny Jurgensen has said on more than one ocasion, that had he played in that game the Dolphins would have needed more that fourteen points to win. Hail!! To The Over The Hill Gang day. Sonny Jurgensen has said on more than one ocasion, had he played in that game, the Dolphins would not have beaten us with fourteen points. The Over The Hill Gang!! |

Re: Who Here Saw The Skins First Superbowl?
Just finished watching again 35 years later. The first 1/2 the Dolphins dominated, the 2nd half went to the Skins who blew 3 scoring opportunities. Curt Knight missed a FG, they got inside the 30 and went out on downs and towards the end of the game in the Dolphins 10 yard line, first Kilmer threw a pass to Jerry Smith that hit the post and on the next pass to Charlie Taylor the ball got intercepted by Jake Scott. Bottom line Skins had 3 costly turnovers to the Dolphins 1 costly turnover which resulted in Mike Bass snatching the ball that Garo Yepremian try to throw for a TD. Funny things I saw in the game was a young Bobby Beathard on the Dolphins sideline and Marv Levy George Allen's assistant with dark hair. Man did Art Monk play like the great Charlie Taylor, what a resemblance.
