Heaven Birthday, Earl Morrallπ―οΈ
Unsung Hero of the Undefeated 1972 Miami Dolphins
After winning the 1968 NFL MVP for the Colts (playing in place of injured legend Johnny Unitas), Earl lost to the Jets in a historic upset in Super Bowl III.
In 1972, Don Shula β who had been his head coach in Baltimore β brought the 38-year-old journeyman Morrall to the #Dolphins to back up quarterback Bob Griese.
Griese broke his leg in Week 5.
Enter Morrall.
Earl guided Miami to 11 consecutive victories during its inexorable march to a perfect 17-0 season and #PhinsUp's first Super Bowl title.
Earl led the NFL in passer rating in '72 (91.0), earning the PFWA's NFL Comeback Player of the Year Award.
