Bradshaw Won the Spelling Bee
|
"Bradshaw couldn't spell CAT if you spotted him the C and the A."
-- Dallas LB "Hollywood" Henderson --
By halftime, Terry Bradshaw had broken every significant Super Bowl passing record... and when it was all over, he'd earned unanimous game MVP honors and had led the Steelers to their 3rd Lombardi Trophy. Considering Bradshaw was named league MVP in '78, set an NFL record for most TD passes in a single season, was the highest-rated passer in the AFC, and earned near-unaimous All-Pro honors, Henderson's comments seem a bit misplaced. One thing was for sure... Terry knew how to spell M-V-P! Below are some great, in-depth articles about Super Bowl XIII:

Speaking of stats, we all know Bradshaw put up some big numbers in this one. But his effectiveness on 3rd down was the key: 8 of 9, 165 yards, 2 TDs (a perfect QB rating of 158.3)! THAT, my friends, is how you win a Super Bowl!
