Host Andrea Kremer takes us back to 1995 when NFL Films Steve Sabol interviewed QB Jim McMahon. The Super Bowl Champion looked back on the 1985 season and his relationship with Head Coach Mike Ditka. Jim recalls his contentious relationship with Ditka, who called the plays but often saw them changed at the line by McMahon. Steve asks about the sole loss that season, as Chicago had started the season 12-0 before losing to the Dolphins. Jim looks at his experiences during Super Week which included being wrongly quoted, mooning a helicopter, the Super Bowl Shuffle, the cover of Rolling Stone magazine and his infamous headband. Steve wraps up with the amazing talent surrounding Jim on those Chicago teams and how the players off the field personalities were so different than their gridiron personas.
