The seven myths about why Dan Marino never won a Super Bowl 

Post#1 » by john4psu » Sun May 25, 2025 6:00 pm

In the regular season, he was good enough to beat the '85 Bears. However, in the post-season, he couldn't beat the '85 Patriots - at home - in Miami - and was badly outplayed by the great Tony Eason. No defense? He was drafted by a team that was just in the Super Bowl. Do you think David Woodley's passing got them there or was it the Killer B's defense?

No running game? Another myth. Plenty of examples of teams that won a Super Bowl with far less of a running game than Marino had in Miami. What was the excuse at Pitt? Bobby Bowden said that Pitt's 1980 team was the greatest college football team he ever saw. Maybe check how Marino played in big games in college.

Zero rings at every level. Stats don't lie. Check out his performances in all the Dolphins' post-season losses and the seven myths on why Dan Marino never won a Super Bowl.

Maybe comparing the genome of Dan Marino and Jalen Hurts, science can finally discover the clutch gene.
