Mayo won the league for the third year in a row. There was no final, the league being decided on points.[1][2][3]

Format edit

This was the first NFL season not to be decided with a knockout final: the team with the most points were winners. This would not happen again until 2020, when the league finals were cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
