“The Dolphins cheated to get Shula”

I’m trying to understand how this means Shula cheated at all, much less for the big winning season.

Someone commented that all Pat’s Super Bowls are tainted by something that happened in the first game this year. Just drawing a comparison (maybe a poor one.)

Shula broke league rules by agreeing to a contract while still under contract to another team. Breach of contract possibilities aside, according to some of the logic used here, breaking a rule is cheating. Shula and the Dolphins broke league rules, were fined, lost a first round draft pick...therefore they cheated. Would the Dolphins have won their SBs if they had not cheated to get Shula?
