Dr.
Murray uses the MPI to rate every play in Super Bowl history from 1967 to
2007. This site is updated with a new game report every Sunday in 2007 until
December 2. Games are analyzed in chronological order from Super Bowl I to
Super Bowl XLI, with all MPI statistics provided. Precise data analyses will
tell us which was the most dominant team of all time, how the 82 teams stack
up in order from 1-82, and many other lists of categories of performance
including best pressure performing team, best offense, best defense, best
special teams unit and so much more!
The MPI or Mental Performance Index is the first system
of scoring developed in sports which includes in the scoring key
mental factors such as pressure management, reduction of mental errors
and focused execution. It was developed by licensed clinical and sport
performance psychologist Dr.
John F. Murray in 2002 to show the extreme importance of
mental factors in sports. It is much more accurate than the final
score and other statistics in showing how one team performed relative
to another team. It has almost perfectly estimated the relative
performance of the teams before each of the past 5 Super Bowls. Dr.
Murray's MPI forecast has also beaten the official Super Bowl spread 4
out of 5 times now. He has appeared on hundreds of radio and
television shows, and the forecast has also appeared in hundreds of
articles. Why all the focus, energy and interest in this topic?
Because it so clearly demonstrates the importance of mental factors in
sports. For more information about the MPI or Dr. Murray's services,
