Zonk and a Super Bowl in the 1980's??
I saw Zonk play when I was a kid from '70-'74. I was thrilled to have him back in '79. Because of him, mostly, we made it to the playoffs. Though we lost against the Steelers. In 1980, without Zonk, the Dolphins bottomed out only to start a rebuilding process that led the way for the Marino era. Though he probably would have been retired by 1983, but imagine having Zonk in the Woodley-era Super Bowl against the Redskins. With a solid running game, we could have kept the ball out of the hands of Theisman and Riggins and have won the darn game.
