1969, Super Bowl III. One of the best ever, IMO (mostly, for "historical" reasons -- see below).

Jets won, behind Joe "Willie" Namath, their controversial super-quarterback from the University of Alabama (coached by the legendary Paul "Bear" Bryant).

Namath boldly predicted, with much hype and fanfare, that they would beat the heavily-favoured Baltimore Colts -- thought to be one of the best pro-football teams of all time (even better than the Vince Lombardi-era Green Bay Packers). And they did win, 16-7.

The quarterback for the Colts, Johnny Unitas -- another football legend -- had been injured during the year, and did not play much of the season. Yet back-up quarterback, Earl Morrall, had an outstanding performance all year, leading the NFL in passing.

Unitas (still sore-armed) also did not start in the Super Bowl, but was pulled-in during the 3d quarter to see if he could get the Colts on the scoreboard. He did -- but, only one touchdown.

This was the first Super Bowl victory for the nascent AFL, recently merged with the NFL, and started the AFL (AFC) on its path to becoming an equal competitor to the NFL (NFC)
