That's why it's kinda weird that people are bashing Shanahan so hard for calling passing plays when they should've been running. Excuse me, but isn't Matt Ryan a 31 year old MVP QB?! Does he not have the authority to audible into a run play?!

Well, next year will determine how elite Matty is. If he reverts back to the on again off again Matty of old, maybe all the magic was in fact Shanahan's luck of the Irish.

So much of a similarity between them though, talent on the teams, the offense, and then choking at the absolute worst times, for Kelly it was 4 straight SBs.

Kelly was in three more SBs than Marino. That's a terrible comparison.

Brad Johnson and Flacco have more SB Victories than Marino to.

Marino played on a team where it was just him and no one else.

MVPs want the ball in clutch situations; should have the ball in clutch situations; should deliver in clutch situations...
