What i wish for superbowl 23

San Francisco 49ers versus Miami Dolphins. Don't want to jinx it but imagine this matchup. A Marino like QB on the SF team and a Montana like QB on the Miami. An interesting deja vu, right?
 
4 seconds left, down by 10, Rams kick field goal to cover the 7 1/2 spread.

Another "cover the spread game" was Oct 14, 2021 Eagles vs Bucs; even the announcers were questioning the Eagles' defensive formations after that 2 point conversion.

Point shaving and throwing games are still alive and well.
 
I don't even recognize the modern NFL. I started watching the NFL in 1974 where great lineman ruled the game play which is why Air Coryell was a revolution in the early 1980s. Too much attention to snowflake QBs who can't get hurt or the NFL's chances of making ad money.

I guess that explains the rise of mobile QBs. I remember Staubach was a quasi mobile quarterback and his career ended due to too many hits that he took. I guess Cunningham & Young did play a long time but they were really pass first run second QBs.
 
So the dolphins let me down but no matter i realise my dolphin team has always included coach Shula in command. Without him the dolphins just don't look and feel the same. I am neutral on 49ers versus Chiefs and i figure Mahomes very much like to win his third but look out for Purdy. Just found down he is a Capricorn. I am an amateur astrologer and some people think strong warrior signs are Leo, Scorpio, Taurus, Aries but to me Capricorns are born champions so i don't expect Purdy to choke. Is not Brady also a Capricorn. Should be an entertaining game.
