The Cincinnati Bengals retooled their porous offensive line after watching Joe Burrow get sacked an astounding 70 times in 20 games last season, including seven times in their losing effort in the Super Bowl. One of the bright spots in that mess was left tackle Jonah Williams, who was graded out by Pro Football Focus as the Bengals' best lineman last season. (AP Photo/Nick Cammett, File)

FILE - Miami Dolphins coach Don Shula, center, is carried off the field after his team won the NFL football Super Bowl game over Washington Redskins in Los Angeles, Jan. 14, 1973. It can be argued — and has been for decades — that a perfect record including winning a championship makes that team the best in its sport. And maybe the 1972 Miami Dolphins wouldn't have matched up with, say, the great Steelers dynasty of the later 1970s. Or the dominant 49ers of the 1980s. Or the Cowboys Triplets of the 1990s. No matter: Miami owns the only unblemished record in the Super Bowl era. (AP Photo/File)
