Key to Shula’s perfect season, an easy schedule

They did not face a playoff team in the regular season and only two teams had winning records

Great coach ! RIP.

He was on the losing end of the legendary Super Bowl III, but also saw perfection with the 1972 season.

Bubba Smith thought something was up too.

In the first half, the Colts drove the ball inside the 20 five times and came away with zero points.
