Speaking of footnotes---here's a couple of more. Included in that 14-2 record were regular season wins over all 3 teams we faced in the playoffs (2 in the case of the Redskins). 371 points scored vs 237 points given up, second only to the Bears in the entire NFL.
True, there weren't a lot of blowout wins---but smashmouth ball-control was Parcells' style. How many blow-out wins did you guys have last year?
And besides, wouldn't you want to save your blowouts for when it really counted, anyhow--- 49-3 (that would be Joe Montana wearing that #3 uniform for the 12-4 Niners in that game), 17-0 and 39-20?
