Super Bowl: Oakland Defeats San Francisco 31-10 (RL: Miami defeats Washington)

Super Bowl MVP: Oakland's Phil Villapiano (13 Tackles, 1 Interception Returned for a TD, 1 Sack, 1 Forced Fumble)

Top Players:

Passing Yards: Joe Namath - NYJ (3,109)
Rushing Yards: Larry Brown - WAS (1,483)
Receiving Yards: Harold Jackson - PHI (1,067)

Playoff Teams:

Sim:
AFC: Miami, Cleveland, Denver (WC: Oakland)
NFC: Washington, Minnesota, San Francisco (WC: Green Bay)

Real Life:
AFC: Miami, Pittsburgh, Oakland (WC: Cleveland)
NFC: Washington, Green Bay, San Francisco: (WC: Dallas)

Passing Yards: Joe Namath (3,109)
Rushing Yards:

Only one major difference, where 5-9 Denver in real life goes 10-4 in the sim to take the West, and Pittsburgh is the odd team out. Miami goes 12-2 (compared to real life's perfect season), but is knocked off in the Divisional round when the Mad Bomber, Daryle Lamonica leads the Raiders to 17 fourth quarter points to take a 29-24 lead. Miami had first and Goal at the Oakland 2, but Earl Morrall was sacked, and then had a short pass intercepted in the end zone.

In the Super Bowl, Oakland scores 24 second quarter points to crush San Fran, which featured this wild swing.

1:55 to play, 2nd Quarter, Villapiano takes a pass from Steve Spurrier back 43 yards to put Oakland up 17-0.

1:39 to play, 2nd Quarter, Washington takes a kickoff back 101 yards to get San Francisco on the board.

1:10 to play, 2nd quarter, Lamonica hits Chester in stride for a 48 yard bomb to make it a 24-7 game, and it was game over at halftime.
