Fun fact: Namath actually tore his ACL in this scene, and his reaction was so moving that they used that take for the live broadcast!

His attire looks vaguely similar to what Frodo, Sam, Merry, and Pippin wear in LotR

The hair and the mud help too, but until I saw which comm this was in, I was hunting for random weirdness and not finding it.

Being the most overrated player of his generation due to playing in NYC and the Colts thinking they could cakewalk through Super Bowl III? Definitely.

Also yes, he does look a bit hobbitty. The hair helps a lot.
