The '72 fish...

Lets not forget that the entire run that season they played only TWO
TEAMS with 500 records...

Correct. However they played some other teams that had a beeter than .500
record. See Tom's reply.

Well not the entire run, but regular season they played two teams
that were 7-7 .500.

Regular season:
Vikings at 7-7
Kansas City Chiefs at 8-6
NY Giants at 8-6
I believe there was one more 7-7 team.

Correct: the Jets were 7-7 and the Dolphins played them twice.


In the playoffs:
Cleveland Browns 10-4
Pittsburgh Steelers 10-3-1

Super Bowl:
Washington Redskins 11-3

.......for a total of 8 games out of 16 played against teams that were .500
or better. Hey, but lets not let verifiable facts ruin the ruination of a
good bedtime story....
