The [[NFL]] MVP for the 1968-69 season was the Colts' Earl Morrall, yet he had a quarterback rating of less than 10 during this game until he was unusually replaced by the coach, Don Shula.  A QB rating of 100 or better is common for a top player at that position.  Morrall's own career QB rating was 93.
