Wow, huge loss in the NFL community. The only head coach to lead a team to a perfect season. RIP.

Huge loss indeed, but your post just makes me think of this (specifically the 0:35 and 2:00 marks)...

The Dolphins were my team as a kid. So many happy memories watching those Shula-Marino teams. This one hits hard.

Beating his team in the 1983 playoffs was my very first introduction to Seahawks football. Still one of my top-5 memories.

That game was awesome.
I liked Shula though and he made it to 90 yrs old. :2thumbs:
He gets to see his old QB's again..(Unitas and Morrall)
RIP coach.

That was amazing! I love Dave Kreig .

710 is talking up how "Shula adapted his game to fit Dan Marino, and maybe Pete should do the same."

My problem with that statement is this, as great as Dan Marino was, and he was amazing, how come he never won a Superbowl?

Maybe if he would have had a running game?
