This was George Allen's only trip to the Super Bowl, his team lost in large part due to poor QB play, and Sonny Jergensen never got into the game.

I think Sonny Jurgensen might've been totally unavailable for this game, but, if not, I absolutely would've sent him in when Washington got the ball back late after closing to 14-7.<br /><br />Awesome Wikipedia: <br /><br /><i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonny_Jurgensen#Washington_Redskins_.281964.E2.80.931974.29" rel="nofollow">The Redskins enjoyed a resurgence in the early 1970s under coach George Allen and made it as far as Super Bowl VII, losing to the Miami Dolphins. However, Billy Kilmer started in place of Jurgensen, who was again bothered by injuries in 1971 and 1972.[2]<br /><br />During this period, a quarterback controversy developed between the two, complete with fans sporting "I Love Billy" or "I Love Sonny" bumper stickers on their vehicles.[5] The defensive-minded Allen preferred Kilmer's conservative, ball-control style of play to Jurgensen's more high-risk approach. Despite the controversy, Jurgensen was helpful to his rival. Even to this day, Kilmer still stays at Jurgensen's house when he is in town.[5]<br /><br />In 1974, at the age of 40 and in his final season, Jurgensen won his third NFL passing crown even though he was still splitting time with Kilmer.[3] In what would be the final game of his NFL career, Jurgensen made his first and only appearance in an NFL postseason game in the Redskins' 19–10 loss to the Los Angeles Rams in the first round of the 1974 NFC playoffs.[2] He came off the bench in relief of Kilmer and completed six of 12 passes but also threw three interceptions.[2]</a></i>Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11218278987255792995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1697242053625998558.post-35429404330529297742015-04-16T16:10:10.637-04:002015-04-16T16:10:10.637-04:00Billy Kilmer: 14-28, 104 yards, 0 touchdowns, 3 i...Billy Kilmer: 14-28, 104 yards, 0 touchdowns, 3 interceptions.GoHeathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11122010542579322600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1697242053625998558.post-34762517454296222002015-04-16T16:05:35.469-04:002015-04-16T16:05:35.469-04:00From stuff I've learned since I've lived i...From stuff I've learned since I've lived in the D.C. area, people around here thought that the Redskins played well on defense, and they were stunned at how bad the Redskins' offense was.GoHeathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11122010542579322600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1697242053625998558.post-82036150048243608662015-04-16T16:01:51.912-04:002015-04-16T16:01:51.912-04:00Six-year-old me was extremely excited about this g...Six-year-old me was extremely excited about this game, but after about five minutes, even six-year-old me could tell that the Redskins had no chance, and I went off to play with my brother.GoHeathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11122010542579322600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1697242053625998558.post-15734983828683662912015-04-16T15:29:48.878-04:002015-04-16T15:29:48.878-04:00Excellent.
