Mary,

Shula put Unitas in sometime in the third quarter because Earl Morrall was having an off game. Unitas did rally the Colts for one touchdown but also missed some passes he would have completed in his great years. His injury was a bad arm.

Jets 16, Colts 7.

Tony

RE:"Unitas was perfect in that game all right as he didn't make any mistakes
that I remember - because he was injured most of the season and didn't
start in that Superbowl game either. I believe he was ready to play, but I
don't think Coach Weeb Eubanks used him at all in that game."...

Like Tony said, Earl Morrall started the game and Johnny U. came in in the second half. Weeb Ewbank was the Jets coach, Don Shula was the Colts coach.

Regards, Jim
PS...Actually caught a pass from Johnny Unitas as a kid.
