In the Super Bowl with Miami do you feel with the way you throw longer then Kilmer and deeper to stretch the defense would you have beaten the Dolphins if you were the QB. I was upset that you were never given the chance, they (Dolphins) had not faced a QB with your ability and talents all year and I think Washington would have won. I loved to watch you play I hope this e-mail finds you in good health. - John
SJ: Well, thank you very much. You know that was the most disappointing thing of my career that I didn't have the opportunity to play in that game. Because I was on crutches, had an Achilles tear, and could not play. They came very close - the Redskins did - it was 14-7. Billy (Kilmer) hit the goal post three times in that game. If you recall, the goal post was on the goal line. I think he hit it three times in the game, which he couldn't do that again if he tried, or no one could. Yes, I would have loved to play in that game, and had the opportunity and I've kidded a lot of the Dolphins over the years, said 'yes, we would have won, if I'd played against them.' We did have that opportunity to play against them in '74 and we beat them in the last five seconds at RFK Stadium, which was kind of my own Super Bowl.

Brilliant, you can cut and paste. Wow!
