Bingo Jesse!

Now I would like the 1% of the forum who didn’t know this to fess up.

B the way it was the Miami Dolphins in 1972.

I was expecting something much more obscure as Peter mentioned until the 99% comment.

Although I suppose it could be equaled if either a strike or lockout lasted exactly two weeks, or a hurricane Katrina type event caused 2 games to be missed for a team or teams and never made up. Possibly due to 14 wins being enough to clinch a 1 seed.

The answer did not match the clues, IMO. Weakness.

The contestants did not rise to the level of the question.

Kicking balls into the end zone from the 40 yard line.

My Giants 6-0 preseason record received partial credit.

Indeed, Jeff.

My apologies for only recognizing your effort privately.

To do so publicly would have been too much of a hint.

No team will ever over come the 28-3 deficit in a Super Bowl with a just over a quarter to play.

I believe the biggest comeback in Super Bowl history before that one was from a 10 point deficit. I doubt we will ever see another Super Bowl like that one, but you never know.

Yeah, hardly something anyone would think of as a "record."

Good lord. Sore losers indeed.

The Dolphins happen to be the only modern NFL team with a perfect record through and including the Super Bowl.

For a second team to repeat this feat they would have to go 19-0 due to schedule expansion, but that’s not my fault.

I would maintain counselor that a perfect record through the playoffs is worthy of “record” recognition, especially since it has not been duplicated by your fat Pats or any other squad.

If you groan Cliff, you wiil simply be feeding Peter’s ego which is already quite healthy.

Woof.
What's a record is being unbeaten, which could happen again, not doing it in the fewest games.
So there.

Mid-thread poll (can one be started???)

Just say yes if the Dolphins 17-0 Super Bowl season is a record.

just say no if you agree with Peter.

I say yes. The yeses lead 1-0.

Not as exciting as I hoped it would be.
