Supe Redux Notes
There are two Super Bowl rematches to be played today and tomorrow.
Last night in a redux of both the 1964 and 1965 A.F.L. Title games, each won by the Buffalo Bills, again it was the Bills who were victorious vs the Chargers but in a game far closer than expected.
“Buff” is now (9-6) and very much in the ‘offs race while the Chargers, despite a good effort under interim coach, Giff Smith (ode to Mr. Gifford), fell to a highly disappointing (5-10) record.
Today it is a redux of the sixth Supe (1971 season), in which, Dallas (Cowboys) finally won “The Big One” (24-3) vs the Miami Dolphins, as the pair of (10-4) teams meet in Miami.
Tomorrow night, in the last of 3 Christmas tilts, it is a rematch of the 2012 season Supe when the Baltimore Ravens barely held off Colin Kaepernick and S.F. (49ers), as the pair of (11-3) Conference leaders/likely “1” seeds, clash in “that city by the bay.”
The great Duane Thomas wore #33 and helped Dallas win their first Super Bowl in 1971.
Six years later, the even greater Tony Dorsett, wearing #33 helped Dallas win a second such crown.
