THE WINNING NUMBER
NO DOUBT ABOUT IT
The Eagles have won the Super Bowl not once, but twice. How could we possibly desire anything more? (You'll find out when the 2026 season starts.)
And yet for older Eagles fans, there remains an empty place in our hearts. How can it be that the great Randall Cunningham, whose athleticism was rivaled only by Wilt Chamberlain, never claimed a Lombardi Trophy?
It makes this week's amazing sports fact seem even more amazing.
In all 9 Super Bowls from 1972 to 1980, the winning QB wore #12 - Bradshaw (4 wins), Griese (2 wins), Staubach (2 wins), and Stabler (1 win).
Seven different "#12" QBs (including Namath, Rodgers, and Brady) have collectively won 18 Super Bowls. That's more than the next two winningest QB jersey numbers combined.
