The Eagles defensive line was something else in that game. Total domination.

Front 4 is very, very good, but made even better by the fact that the Chiefs O-line isn't, especially at the tackle spots.

Combine that with a lack of elite weapons (that can get open quickly), pretty much sealed the deal.

That was one of the most enjoyable sporting events I've ever been fortunate to watch in my 41+ years on this Earth. I'm not sure I've ever witnessed such dominance by a team of which I'm a fan, especially with a championship on the line.

Too bad that you were too young to witness the Bears' dismantling of the New England Patriots in the 1986 Super Bowl: 46-10.

Buddy Ryan, Fridge as goal-line running back, the 46 defense, Ditka and a regular season record of 15-1. Legendary.

And what's prophetic here is that this was taped seven weeks before the Super Bowl. Also, I like the fact that these guys slipped in a lyrical tribute to George Halas, a clever rhyming that played off "Dallas."

Back then those players often had other gigs, They put together a Bears Basketball team that played teams for charity fundraisers. They came to Springfield IL and I was in Jaycees and recruited a guy that put together the only team to beat them over a several year period. Pretty exciting game., Those guys were all great athletes and they did it for off season conditioning. Bears team wanted a rematch so bad but president of our Jaycee chapter did not want to do it again even though it raised a fair amount of money for the organization because we were working with an outside organization that did much of the work
