"Mow my lawn when you there. Keep it clean"😂 damn savage
LOL that one cracked me up.
Have to admit it - but I would like it when Steve Smith would ask me to mow his lawn and keep it clean.
I liked that to
@@scoobycarr5558 Another ungrateful KC fan.. Great.
@@johnballs1352 Technically I'm a Bears fan but actually thanks for the info ...
Not a huge Belichick but the fact he had enough integrity to appear in the press conference Petrino, Saban, Bielema , Lane Kiffin all slinked out of town Belichick stood up like a man and did the right thing.
Ur not a huge Belichick? I'm pretty sure Bill Belichick is not a HUGE BELICHICK!😂🤣😂
@@chriskelly4477
Oh, but Bill is a HUGE Bellicheck
@@CSDonohue11 actually ur right 😂
Belichik did what he needed to do. He stayed in the shadows behind parcells long enough. Then slowly built a dynasty

Number One most devastating departure: When sports commentators and analysts were replaced by comedians.
@The Anthropologist _Forensic atleast you can tell the type of person you are. Never met a decent person that ever referred to a woman as a hole. Must be a incel
In some cases BIASED commentary as well...
I liked the raspy voice dude though
Yeah and specially no one has ever heard about
Loved Dennis Miller on mnf
That dude in the guns n roses shirt sounds like hes been drinking battery acid his entire life.
He's actually a great broadcaster - you should check him out. No, I don't work for him. He managed to get me excited about college football. THAT'S a feat.
By saying you dont work for him it essentially means you do.
Nice comment Scott.
The Internet is a cesspool. Sorry someone's vocal cords offended you.
@@ryandowd7040 stop talking in the third person Scott.
Scott Ferall is a good talk show host. I listen to him almost every midnight on CBS radio.
They never mention the reason Bellicheck resigned as the Jets coach. He left because there was questions about their ownership and after dealing with an issue with the Browns and their situation moving when he was their coach he didn't want to deal with a situation like that.
they never mention plenty of important details. they clearly have an agenda.
Tom Brady's departure after 20 years with the Patriots. That should be #1 if this list gets updated
Not really
Maybe it'd make the list but not close to number 1
Nah. I think Manning going to the Broncos was worse. Colts fans got to watch him make the Super Bowl twice and they didn't win anything with Luck who was supposed to be his successor. Tom leaving NE won't look as bad in the future if Mac Jones ends up being a legitimate successor over the next ten years.
Not comparable to the top 2 - not even close
@@tylerjerabek5204I have quite a few devastating departures to add to this list:
* Bobby Layne being traded to the Steelers (this flushed the Detroit Lions' fortunes down the toilet)
* The Cardinals moving to St. Louis, drawing the curtain on 40 years of the Bears-Cardinals rivalry in Chicago
* Cleveland firing their namesake, founder, head coach and GM Paul Brown (who went on to found the Cincinnati Bengals six years later)
* St. Louis losing two teams (the Cardinals moving to Phoenix, and the Rams moving back to LA)
* The Houston Oilers moving to Nashville and becoming the Tennessee Titans (so far, the Texans have not filled that void)
And I disqualify Bill Belichick's 24 hour stint as Jets head coach, given the franchise has been in the basement for years (and a mad Jets fan said that Bill made the right call).
Also, I agree with the top two, but my list has them the other way around:
* My number two was Baltimore - they subsequently recieved the Ravens in 1996, and the Ravens won the Super Bowl before the Indianapolis Colts did, while the Colts were also a lousy team for over 15 years: basically, the football Gods went "Bob Irsay, for moving the Colts, your team will be failures for the rest of your days."
* My number one was Cleveland - they went into recess for three years, and the Browns' temporarily last game saw fans wantonly looting the stadium and setting parts of it on fire, with owner Art Modell needing a 24-hour armed police guard for the rest of the season after he announced The Move.
Scott Ferrall is exactly what I picture every Guns N' Roses fan to look and sound like
itsBatman a hoarse wreck
I only smoke 40 packs a day *wheeze-cough*
😂😂😂
My thoughts exactly lmao..glad im not the only one
He sounds like professor Frink from the simpsons
Number 1 best departure:
When Goodell retires or gets fired
Dak Attack ur stupid cowboys never gonna win another Lombardi and they suck with Troy and jerry idiotJones and none of that 0-16 business happened its called a rebuild son you wish u had chucky not on the dark side PS dak has no balls andCarr is better than Brady Take Da L
@@nflforeveroakland4161 hey your just mad because we got copper so stop the hate because you have no idea what you are talking about
@@nflforeveroakland4161 This dude really thinks Carr is better than Brady 😂
#RESPECTDACOWBOYSNATION
@@nflforeveroakland4161 meanwhile we are going to the Divsion Playoffs. Your team has not even sniffed the playoffs since there last Superbowl.
#9 so happy for Andy Reid after he won the Super Bowl with the Chiefs. Remind me how the Eagles got on this season!
eagles won the super bowl a couple years ago tho...
Jordan Gonz hey but how was it Andy’s fault that mcnab constantly shut the bed in the playoffs?
Both the Eagles and Andy Reid won the Super Bowl since they split up. It's a happy but bittersweet ending for both sides.
They got to reboot that because Andy Reid won the Super Bowl
@@philly_sports1558 Yeah it was.
My friend who grew up watching Brett Favre was sad to see him retire, but then he came back for the Jets and rooted for both teams in 2008. Then when he retired again and signed with the Vikings, it turned into just hatred and disgust.
brett favre, the man who doesnt know what retirement is and he was a beast! he is still a beast tho
Ditto
Would you have felt the same way if Farve went to the Bears
Favre tanked that Jet's Season. 8-3 then he tore his Bicep and played horrible to lose 4 of 5 and miss the playoffs in the Matt Cassel Patriots Year where other teams didn't have to worry about Brady. Favre refused to sit to keep him ironman streak going.
Really easy to hate him now
This video has more divorce metaphors than Colin Cowherd.
Good one
Number 1 devastating departure.
When hitting left the NFL.
I haven't watched an nfl game this year. I still like college, high school and will give that new league a chance.
NFL is rigged facts.
Agreed. No more Great Defensive players like Lott or Atwater or Lewis Ect Ect Ect. Was my favorite part of football to watch. It will never be the same.
Yep, I was a ground control, defense guy myself. The league is turning into a sport for female fans.
Harry didn't get the point....
The Bo Jackson injury still breaks my heart all these years later. What he could've accomplished has to be perhaps the biggest "What If" in the history of sports.
He would have been a First Ballot Hall of Famer in either Sport. You could argue whether he would have passed Walter Payton, Barry Sanders and Emmet Smith or he would have passed Babe Ruth, Hank Aaron and Barry Bonds?
@@JuliusC1973 What are you talking about? He would have done NONE of those things lol. Great player, but he was more into baseball, and actually wasnt available to play football the entire season, because of his contract with the Royals.
Say he dedicated himself to one sport only. It were baseball, he might have had a shot at the HOF, but passing Babe Ruth and Hank Aaron? HIGHLY unlikely. He hit 30 homers ONCE.
Had he only played football, he WOULD have made the HOF, and may have had a chance at any and every record. That being said, to get and keep that record from Emmitt Smith, he has to reach 18,500 yards. As good as Bo was as a runner, thats 18 years of 1000 yards a season lol. He would have done it in fewer, sure, but youre still looking at 14 years EASY, to keep that record from Emmitt. I dont think Bo would have played that long had he stayed healthy.
Bottom line great player in both, and maybe the best athlete of all time, but lets not get crazy here about him being the GOAT in both sports. Wasnt gonna happen.
I don't really know. I think the "What If" was really more "What if he played one of the other?" for Bo. Playing both hurt his legacy in both. Even Deion couldn't do it forever and had to choose eventually. Mark Prior or Jose Fernandez are the biggest two Baseball What Ifs for me.
Should have stuck to baseball. He'd be a HOF'er. Playing his style - he'd ALWAYS get hurt playing in the NFL.
Michael Jordan thought he could be Bo Jackson lol
As an Eagles fan, we will always love Andy Reid. He always gets a lot of love when he comes back to Philly
Will that still be the same case after Super Bowl Sunday?
@@randomvids1231000 No doubt. IMO I would rather lose to Andy Reid or Peterson than any other coach, especially Belichick and McCarthy
The children of the area are happy his son no longer drives in Philadelphia, no doubt
Blah blah... if he didn't get mahommes yall would be saying WE KNEW HE WAS OVERRATED.. go eat a cheese sandwich and pipe down
They need more former players on these videos, they seem to use “comedians” more often than players which is baffling.
And they aren’t even funny.
and third tier comedians at that.
Sludge you’re thinking of women
probably because it's harder to get and these "comedians" are die hard fans of their team.
They need more former players on these videos, they seem to use “comedians” more often than players which is baffling.
All these divorce and relationship analogies.. for a second I thought I was watching The Herd
Hahahahah best comment
THHICCC
LOL
This is a Class A thicc trunky comment
Lol, that’s so true.
Bill belichick left his resignation on a napkin so the jets could wipe their tears on it.
He probably blew his nose on the way out with that napkin 😂😂😂
Genius! Although they're used to crying so he helped them out even after leaving.
@@leogonzalez6751Or used it for something else, if you get my drift.
Honorable mention to the Rams leaving St Louis, the only city to approve a tax increase for a new stadium and then the owner moves the team anyway and drags the city through the mud.
Not to the same level as Art Modell's attempt to relocate the Browns to Baltimore, which ended up being an epic debacle (Modell could have avoided this if he lived to own the team for another 21 or 22 years), or the Baltimore Colts blowing town in the middle of the night (despite this, Baltimore still won the Super Bowl before the Indianapolis Colts did).
@@MRB16th Repeat: *only*
@@davidminor4213 I failed to see the approval for a tax increase - that puts the Rams relocation on the same level as the other two in terms of flipping off the fans.
I will note the Browns had angry fans wantonly looting the stadium and setting parts of it on fire during their (temporarily) final game (it's a miracle the officials didn't call it), whereas Baltimore and St. Louis did not.
I feel any team that does relocate, should have to leave the brand and start a new one. Yeah, the Ravens are cool, but they should still be the Colts, and Oakland fans deserve to keep the Raiders. Just incase those cities who lose a team, gets another, which almost always happens, THAT CITY, with THOSE FANS, who cheered and spent their hard earned money and time on that team, get to keep their team. AND their legacies.
Paul Brown leaving the Browns should be on this list
I never understood why Belichick got a lot of crap for the Browns moving. Its not like Bill decided they needed to move and I'm sure he was as surprised like everyone else when Art Modell announced they were moving to Baltimore.
Art Modell forcing Jim Brown to prematurely retire because he didn't want to accommodate Brown's shooting of The Dirty Dozen could be an honorable mention on this list.
I was expecting that to be number 1. Paul Brown is the godfather of football, and he gets fired from the team that's named after him? How is that not even on the list? NFL Network goofed on this one.
Barry sanders
I totally agree
Steve Smith Revenge game wit the Black visor and all Black unis 🔥
fwied wice
ME-“Hey Steve why are you wearing black? You look like you’re going to a funeral”
SS- “maybe I am”
Lol
@@EvetsZerimar23 funny
fwied wice the reason the cut him was because he was putting way to much pressure on Cam Newton he was hurting the team by hurting Cams confidence it was kinda messed up but it helped the panthers in the long run
He became a locker room cancer for the Panthers, Cam Newton and Ron Rivera
Montana leaving SF is the reason my grandma is a KC fan now. She was living in Cali when Montana was running through the league as a 49er and refused to leave him when he moved to the Midwest
Brady can get 10 rings, and if I need a TD to win a game, or im executed, Im taking Joe Montana over him and ANYONE.
Montana being traded by San Francisco wasn't as devastating when you consider Steve Young took San Francisco to multiple NFC Championship games and won a Superbowl. It is doubtful, San Francisco would have beaten Dallas or Washington in the 1992 and 1993 playoffs with Joe Montana.
The worst part about Andy Reid leaving the Eagles was not even bringing in Chip Kelly, the worst part was Kelly got rid of the heart and soul of the offense in Vick, Jackson and Shady McCoy because he wanted his own team and not Reid's.
Barry Sanders and Calvin Johnson retiring in the prime of their careers.
Oh yeah.
Raiders trade Khalil Mack,
Raiders go 0-16
Mack wins defensive player of the year
But he's not a real Gruden Grinder
lol you really think we’ll go 0-16? We’ve got 2-14 talent on our team 😤 (I’m dead inside).
FluffiestPikachuEver If you lose next game to the Browns I wouldn’t doubt a 0-16 record.
If he didn’t want to be there you can’t stop it
he might win the League mvp
Belichick's treatment by Modell and the abuse he endured coaching the Browns after Modell's announcement cemented some fundamental Belichick principles and had a profound effect on various franchises going forward. It taught Belichick how critical ownership and team control was. He resigned from the Jets on a napkin because of the post-Hess ownership uncertainty. He looked on in knowing displeasure as Mangini went to work for the Jets and Browns. He had no problem letting Patricia go coach the Lions after the Patriots defense got smoked by Philly in the SB. He didn't have a meltdown when Flores went to a division opponent (Dolphins) because he knew Flores would be working for Stephen Ross. He asked Josh McDaniels if he really wanted to take the Colts job and work for Jim Irsay. He must have laughed to himself when his former alma mater then nemesis the Giants hired Joe Judge. It's no coincidence that Mike Vrabel, one of the rare Belichick disciples to have success in the coaching ranks, works for Amy Adams Strunk, one of the better owners in the league.
Well thought out.
That Leonard Marshall hit effectively kept the 49ers from winning 3 superbowls in a row.
Bo’s injury happened on such an innocuous play, it is impossible to accept such greatness can be wiped out in such an ordinary fashion.
Check out the injury that ended Bears' RB Gayle Sayers career. The same thing. IMO the surprise is that the human body can endure the punishment meted out to it by pro football players without more of them receiving career ending injuries.
Yea, it You leaves Me so unfulfilled
Or something I can’t even describe.
I LOVE BO as an 9yo He was everything.
Thank Goodness Barry Sanders & Ken Griffey Jr. & Larry Johnson & DEiON Sanders came in right then to fill that void for Me, but it took 4 Players to fill what 1 Bo did for a 8-10yo Male growing Up in America Loving Sports and looking @ The Greatest Pro Athletes as Super Hero’s.
Man….
Barry Sanders and Larry Johnson 👵🏿
still Hold Their Spots for Me.
Always Be My Favs. 😏
It was a lot like the crash that killed Dale Earnhardt. Just a little kiss against the wall. Should have walked away from that all day.
If they'd only believed that his hip had dislocated and gone back in he would've been treated and continued to play. Bo's case is one of medical incompetence/malpractice.
@@mikethebeginner It wasnt a kiss. It may look like that to a noob, but he went into a wall going 200 mph dude.
I'm suprised Peyton being curb stomped out of Indy wasn't on here somewhere. Wasn't bitter necessarily, but like they basically said "Hey you're old and not good enough anymore. Byeeee."
Then he goes on to re-teach himself to throw after his neck surgery and breaks multiple NFL records in Denver and won another championship...
I thought it would be in the top 3.
Dont forget his HGH
That's a good point, he left, went to two Super Bowls & won one, and probably wouldn't have gone to one with Indy. It's not like Luck has been to one yet.
Well the Colts wouldn’t have the best QB in the NFL right now in Andrew Luck if they keep Peyton
Indy hasn't had anything right since Peyton's departure. Their middle name is mediocrity. Not only Mr. Luck as their QB can save the Colts.
Safe to say that #9 feels a lot worse now for the Eagles
“Go back to Carolina and when you’re there mow my lawn❗️” - Steve Smith 😂😂😂
jimmy johnson leaving dallas, dallas hasn't mattered since
Pamela Tencza Krushin They won a Superbowl with Barry Switzer but yes, Jerry's ego ruined our football team for a whole generation and counting
Eternal Star 2401 that was still JJs team, that team could have coached themselves, but switzer did win one technically
Eternal Star 2401 I could have won a super bowl with that team
Pamela Tencza Krushin and never will!😂😂😂😂😂 #CowboysSuck🚮
The 1995 Dallas Cowboys won the Super Bowl. NEXT
The Colts moving has to be number 1. Just to show how bad it was from the ravens creation in 1996 up to 2012 every time the Colts played in the Baltimore they were called "The Indianapolis football team" on the scoreboard.
Rowdy Jr. dafuq?
No reason to be salty when the city of Baltimore was trying to steal the team from Irsay through imminent domain (going to court the very morning after the move and had police trying to block some of the trucks through the night) but then turns around and takes the Browns from Cleveland.
Besides, the Colts have been in Indy longer than they were in Baltimore now.
Exactly. The crooks whom the people of Baltimore elected to represent them forced Irsay's hand.
@@clutchthepearls3062 First of all, it is eminent domain, not imminent domain. It was a last ditch effort, as it was imminent that Irsay was going to move. He ran the franchise into the ground. He was flying to Pheonix , Tampa, and other cities shopping the team around..
Baltimore did NOT just turn around and take another team. It was 13 years before the Brown s moved to Baltimore. If the NFL had given Baltimore a team like they did for Cleveland, there would have been no need. The NFL expanded in 1995 by two teams. Baltimore had the best offer on the table, but the NFL awarded teams to Charlotte and Jacksonville. Again, the NFL snubbed Baltimore. What were Baltimore's options. had they not gotten the Browns, they still would have no team. Should Baltimore play nice, and not have a team, while places like Jacksonville, a small market, have a team?? Would Cleveland not try to entice a team if they were not awarded a team? I don't think so.
@@clutchthepearls3062
Yup. Another 24 hours and the Colts would've been sized by the state.
Remember when Bo played without pads and ran for 2000 yards?
Remember when Bo ran for a 95 yard touchdown backwards?
ROFL
BO was a freak of nature, I remember watching his cartoons with gretzy , being able to make not just 1 professional sports team but 2!!! that is insane.
Marty Schottenheimer getting fired after going 14-2 with the chargers? Drew Brees getting shipped to NO? LT getting shipped to the Jets? Or any other AJ Smith/Dean Spanos decision in the last three decades. Moving to LA?
They should do that
Well, the Brees move is defensible. They had already committed to Philip Rivers and there were concerns about Brees having rotator-cuff surgery and missing an entire season. But how about trading Fred Dean away to the 49ers because Spanos wouldn't give the greatest pass rusher in the game a raise?
14-2 and fired was the dumbest thing any team has ever done, he would have won superbowls there with that team, that was so foolish.
Great point. Chargers should be on here.
Yeah, you're right on!
Why do you always ask comedians about the situations in these videos? Tf they know bout sports 😂
What do you know bout sports
They know as much as journalists or broadcasters. All they gotta do is watch it. Its sports, not physics.
Brian Sager if you watch any of their other videos like this they all kinda have the same replies and it seems like they are reading it off another screen. There is also some stuff you may not also know about unless you are kept updated on sports every day, which I doubt most of these people are. Even then, shouldn't a "comedian" be working on other stuff besides being interviewed for a sports video?
Well, Comedians are fans just like the journalists and insiders they interview for this show & they know alot about the sport. They also interview Actors & other Celebrities who are fans as well.
They branch out to get different opinions from different walks of life who are all fans of football...
There's nothing wrong with that (IMO)!!
@@mcavoy7313 What? Comedians are suddenly strapped for time? Most of these writers are headline guys, they spend their time chasing storylines and gossip. Kevin Clark is probably the only writer on here who could do something as basic as identify a coverage. They're professional viewers. I dont see why comedians are the ones who are suddenly disqualified.
Steve Smith "Make sure you mow my lawn while you're out there"! Lmao!
At 27:52 The dude who brought the hacksaw into browns stadium is Savage AF. I really hope whoever he was, he was able to get his seat. Hats off.
If you want to start a list of devastating ACQUISITIONS, there is no better place to start than the Lions hiring Matt Millen as team president.
I don't know if that was as devastating as much as it was pointless.
Chip Kelly also has to be on that list.
Or ABC bringing in Rush Limbaugh for MNF 😂
See I think you have to remember that when it comes to Millen, he told Ford that he was unqualified for the job and that he was basically just a broadcaster, but Ford threw a whole bunch of money at him and gave him the keys to the kingdom anyway. So Millen took his best shot, well actually about 7 of his best shots, at finding the next Jerry Rice and eventually he did with Calvin Johnson but it was too late to avoid an 0-16 season and getting canned.
mbelma6329 they actually had Limbaugh on Sunday NFL Countdown and Dennis Miller on MNF.
Carolina ultimately fired the GM for releasing Steve Smith.
Dave Gettleman's fault
Like Odell right now
And he went on to trade Odell Beckham
Terrible move ...
I think they can now add Brady leaving the Patriots. I'm still devastated
Y’all world of been bad with or without him. But if they continue to be bad then yeah it goes up there
They can add him. Wouldn't
be number 1 like some are saying
The Redskins have never gotten over Joe Gibbs retirement in 1992. He couldn’t even overcome it when he came back for 4 years
Somewhere in an alternative dimension Belichick stayed with the Jets and Mark Sanchez has 5 Super Bowl rings
Derek Keller Belichick missed the playoffs in 6 of the 7 seasons he coached without Brady. He would have won zilch with Sanchez.
Highly doubt it...
*Chad Pennington
(same draft as Brady, career shortened due to injury)
If there is a universe where Mark Sanchez has 5 Super Bowl rings, I no longer believe in quantum theory, and Einstein and Bohr were idiots.
@Jessie Jonez he's too old now to make that comparison
Mow my lawn while your out there 👀💀🔥
Thank You Eagles for Andy Reid!
-Sincerely Chiefs Fans
Reid is always a second rate coach. He shits the bed in big games. If not for Eric bienemi and Mahomes, he never wins a title. He should pay more attention to his kid so he stops running over, and crippling, little girls
@@vicalamuso3427 If you’re going to troll you might want to learn how to spell the name of the coach you claim is responsible for Reid’s success.
Andy Reid, Super Bowl champion coach for the Chiefs.
Where is Bobby Layne being traded by the Lions?
Nice
Top ten curses yea.
YES!
The Lions..... Rebuilding since 1957!!
Night Train Lane? One of the greatest of all time.
Where is Barry Sanders retiring before training camp
How is Paul Brown's departure from Cleveland not on this list? I mean you got easily one of the greatest rivalries in the NFL out of it with 1 team naming themselves the Browns after him and the other naming their stadium Paul Brown Field. That's easily #1 in my opinion.
Andy is laughing his ass off now😂
Basic TGS so are the eagles, both won, just without each other
@@ryderlahrs3162 eagles definitely ain’t laughing 🤣😩 Andy doing much better
@@bobbybrowner4803 end of the day they still won one
I go with Belichick switching to the Patriots, simply because I started looking at the effects. Parcells was going to remain in charge of hiring and firing for the Jets, and he had already decided on Pennington as quarterback. The Patriots would never have drafted Brady if Belichick hadn't pushed for him, so somewhere in Northern California there would be an insurance salesman or stock broker who earned a good living, was married with kids, and played good amateur golf, but who never had a chance to play in the NFL. Thus, Peyton Manning would have won at least one or two more Super Bowls. Kurt Warner would have won at least one more Super Bowl. Drew Bledsoe would have remained with the Patriots for several more years, so he wouldn't have been available when Parcells moved to Dallas. So, by 2004 Parcells would have been looking for a new quarterback, which could have led to Dallas grabbing Eli Manning, or Philip Rivers, Drew Bledsoe, or even Roethlisberger. Parcells might have found a temporary fill-in, and then gone for Alex Smith or Aaron Rogers the next year. (You could never tell what Parcells would do). But he wouldn't have hired Tony Romo, who would have gone to the only other team that was interested in him, the Denver Broncos. I can't even begin to list the various players, coaches and owners who were affected by Brady and Belichick being in New England together. Randy Moss would have remained with the Raiders, other players would have had better or worse careers, coaches might or might not have had NFL careers, and would have remained in colleges.
So, while all those moves had shattering effects on players, coaches and cities, those few words scribbled on the napkin led to profound changes in many careers.
and the eagles would have won the superbowl in 2004-05 also there wouldnt have been turmoil the following year between a healthy
TO and mcnabb. they may have gone on to win it all again.. winning then would have put andy reid in the hof for the eagles and he may not have been fired to be replaced by chip who torpedo'd the team and made way for doug pederson who won us a ring last year.
Butterfly effect
I envision a future where humanity gets to see all these "what ifs" in a simulation.
Actually Romo would have gone to Arizona since they actually offered him the most money
Jesus i havent seen that many strentches in a comment since I stopped looking at fox news comment sections lol
If Pennington's Rotator Cuff never explodes, or even only explodes once, the Jets would have won a Superbowl during his career. Dude was very good and had Prime Curtis Martin with a very good team around him.
Yeah, Jerry Jones really did Tom Landry wrong, but at least he got Jimmy Johnson and they won some Super Bowls and lived happily ever... wait...
I hate being a Cowboys fan. #FireJerryJones
Hell man, stop calling them the Dallas Cowboys. Call them what they really are, the Jones' Cowboys.
Bo was the goat 🐐. Such a sad ending. Glad I got to witness his greatness.
8:57 There is one more thing more painful than having Bill Bellichick as your head coach and him immediately resigning: having Mark Sanchez as your quarterback.
The greatest devastated in NFL history head coach Jimmy Johnson leave Dallas Cowboys led to win two Super Bowl march 29th1994 will never forget
Just barely a month after winning a second straight and poised to 3-peat then all of sudden in a press conference Jimmy says: "We have mutually decided that I will no longer be the head football coach of the dallas cowboys." Those words I will never forget.
Miller2h41 Your Are Awesome Amazing
damion cooke Though they did get a Super Bowl without him, albeit it was won with his players. Otherwise, you're spot on.
finchborat Who Replaced by Jimmy Johnson For Dallas Cowboys Head Coach
After that the Cowboys became irrelevant as a team and then the Patriots became the dynasty. The Cowboys are still in need of even reaching a Super Bowl while the Patriots keep winning Super Bowls.
great list, thank you i did enjoy.
Watching this in 2023, right after Andy beat the eagles in the Super Bowl to get his second ring, pretty satisfying. Philly fans are the worst.
"No, we're good, we got jerricho cotchery." That line killed me
I've got a Top 10 idea:
NFL Top 10 Monday Night Football Games
Who else wants to see that?!?!
How about the top 10 sports announcers? Some of my favorites - Jack Brickhouse (Hey Hey), Frank Gifford, Howard Cosell, Harry Caray (Holy Cow), Bob Uercker, Harry Kalas (Outta Here), Lou Boudreau (kiss it goodbye) and Vin Scully.

My late father wasn't really into football, but starting watching it in the years before he passed.
I came over to his house and he was watching a football game on tv.
He says, "That quarterback. He's pretty good."
I looked at the tv, nodded.
"Joe Montana? Yeah. He's been pretty good for the Niners."
😂😂😂
Can't believe there is no mention of Bill Walsh leaving the Bengals after Paul Brown refused to promote him to head coach. The Bengals would have been a dynasty.
OMG Yeah Imagine If Bill Stays in Cincy The Bengals Have Some Super Bowl Banners Still Around Today!
I'm more shook that Paul Brown and the Browns split wasn't on there. THE TEAM WAS NAMED AFTER HIM!!
Steve Smith's leaving was Dave Gettleman's fault. Us Panthers fans didn't want him to go.
Us Saints fans rejoiced. He was the ultimate "Saints killer!"
Also that number one, that is the problem with American sports. Teams should pay for their own stadiums, not use tax payer funds on a stadium. Absolutely ridiculous
Totally agree. Or the NFL should. I remember when our stadium was built, city and state workers were forced to take furlough days. They came up with some bs excuse, but we all knew the truth...
Yeah, they call that "ball pork".
Stadiums make money for the city. Why Would you want the team owner taking all the profits....
@@haroldfrets1268 I don't want my city govt. in the stadium business. They can barely run the city. Let business people own and operate the stadium, and the city can collect the taxes.
@@haroldfrets1268 stadiums do not make any money for cities. Most of the money is kept by players and owners. Cities incur losses with stadiums. Study sports economics and you'll learn stadiums are business destroyers and money black holes
On the bright side, Belichick had the least amount of losses of any Jets coach in franchise history, and finished his time as their head coach having just as many wins as losses. So there's that.
Andy Reid just beat the eagle's in the superbowl the freaking irony.
Paul Brown getting Fired as Browns Head Coach by Art Modell after 1962', I feel should be on this list!!
Art Modell has his name on THREE of the worst ownership decisions ever made by an NFL owner.
1) Firing Paul Brown.
2) Forcing Jim Brown to prematurely retire.
3) Moving the Browns to Baltimore.
@@davester1970 ... I was always under the Impression that Jim Brown chose to retire. I've never heard about Art Modell forcing him to retire!!
Jim Brown was shooting The Dirty Dozen in 67' and it was causing him to miss part of training camp. Art Modell was threatening to fine him for every day he was missing from camp. So Jim Brown chose to retire and pursue and acting career.
Brown had already announced he would retire following the 1966 season. Modell''s threats motivated him to retire a year early.
malbuff exactly but it denied him a farewell season Modell is a bum (as btw is Jim Brown, but Browns fans deserved a goodbye season)
Robert Irsay is the shadiest guy in sports history
Sounds almost like he has a connection to the Titanic.
Why limit it to sports history ?
Baltimore was going to take the team away from him
Yes he was. Sneaky as hell, a total pr**k...
@Hector Rodriguez And Frank Kush was hated by the players as their coach.
I was born and raised in Dallas and became a huge Cowboys fan in the mid 70’s. Tom Landry wasn’t just our head coach, he was an icon in this city. A brilliant football mind for the game and tremendous character as a human being, Landry was bigger than life. The day that Jones fired Landry felt like someone you loved had just died. The city was in shock. Yes, the team was on its way down and the glory days under him were over, but you just don’t treat someone like Landry the way Jones’s did. It was time for a change, but not like that. Landry deserved a better exit.
The Jets were sorry then and they're sorry in 2019
And. 2020
Montana and Favre's departures were at the top of my list. Two of the biggest players at the QB position in NFL history. And the fact that both QBs started great team dynasties and rebirths made it even nore impactful when they were out
I probably feel worse for Montana than Favre but the teams deciding to move on from both made sense even if it sucks that the players exited that way. It sucks for Joe when you look at his final three seasons as the Niners starter before he got hurt. It would suck to win two superbowls and the final two seasons starting to be the MVP and then be injured prior to the next season that kept him out for basically two entire seasons. It sucks to lose a job because you got hurt but when the replacement was just the MVP you can’t blame them for going with him over the 37 year old who’s been hurt for two seasons. With Brett it sucked but at the same time he was always leaving them in mystery about whether he was returning or not and the final year they had asked for him to make his call early over leaving them in mystery until right before the season as he had been. But in the end it’s almost impossible to win because eventually you have to move on from the 39 year old when you have someone like Rodgers waiting for his shot. It just would’ve been nice if they’d been able to agree to move on in the spring and done so on good terms.
In the end it’s a hard thing to do because while you want to let those guys go out how they want but at some point in time you can’t put everything on hold forever if the legend doesn’t want to leave. I think with the Packers the split could have been cleaner if both sides had just been more honest with each other, namely the Packers with Brett. I think it would’ve been doable if the packers had simply told him that they wanted to move on to Aaron but they’d let Brett have one final season in Green Bay if he was ready to fully commit by March. And when he had told them he was leaning towards wanting to play but wasn’t ready to fully commit to that if they would have offered to him that if he was leaning to playing that they’d be willing to give him a release so that if he chose later on that he did want to play he could go to a team of his choosing or at worst doing that when he returned instead of trading him. But I think he was planning to go to the Vikings then too so hard to say.
Emmett smith going to cardinals? Derrick brooks being cut from the bucs? Dismantling of the bucs superbowl team..tony dungy?
The death of Sacksonville?
Congratulations to Andy Reid on winning a Super Bowl with the Kansas City Chiefs. 🏆🎊#SuperBowl2020 #HOFBound 💯
Tom Brady when he saw this list last year: I’M ABOUT TO END THIS MANS WHOLE CAREER!
We will see
@@erichall090909 pats have to win a superbowl thats the roof brady set and brady isnt done
My parents still live on the street where the Colts used to play, and I actually used to work with Unitas’ granddaughter fresh out of high school.
That’s cool my grandfather was at that 1958 NFL championship game between the colts and the New York giants. The one they called the greatest game ever played.
It should be the Baltimore colts and the Indianapolis ravens. The Browns never should’ve left Cleveland.
😂😂😂😂😂
Rowdy Jr. that’s not what happened at all.
It's true only on paper. Officially the Ravens are an expansion team. But everyone who remembers knows what really happened.
They wouldn't be the Ravens if they where in Indianapolis
Rowdy Jr. the team was basically stolen. Modell’s “expansion team” was allowed to steal the Browns. Fortunately for Cleveland, they didn’t steal Bill Belichick as well, although Brian Billick did win that one SB which sucks for Cleveland, imagining the Ravens defense coached by Belichick is a much worse outcome for Cleveland, as it’s very possible the Ravens would have won multiple Super Bowls with Belichick. After all Belichick did essentially draft Ray Lewis.
Let's not all forget had it not been for Tom Landry we wouldn't have football on Thanksgiving day. He created that Tom Landry started football on Thanksgiving day.
The Colts leaving Baltimore was so bad, Johnny Unitas cut ties with the team.
@Harris Biden It was a lot more complex than that. Irsay was a drunk, and was extremely difficult to deal with. He would say one thing one day, and then deny he ever said it the next. \It was inevitable that they were going to move. Emminent Domain was a last ditch effort to prevent the inevitable.
@Harris Biden He was going to move it regardless.
@Harris Biden They did that after he left and failed. The city of Baltimore was played by Irsay so he could get what he wanted in Indy.
"Hey everybody it's Guy Fieri and we're rollin' out for another episode of Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives!"
But, seriously. What is he doing here? 😂It's the most random thing ever.
Lol same
GF is a huge Raider fan. Go Raiders.
26:43 i was about ready to hear brockhampton
zipper was playing in my head😂
I have quite a few devastating departures to add to this list:
* Bobby Layne being traded to the Steelers (this flushed the Detroit Lions' fortunes down the toilet)
* The Cardinals moving to St. Louis, drawing the curtain on 40 years of the Bears-Cardinals rivalry in Chicago
* Cleveland firing their namesake, founder, head coach and GM Paul Brown (who went on to found the Cincinnati Bengals six years later)
* St. Louis losing two teams (the Cardinals moving to Phoenix, and the Rams moving back to LA)
* The Houston Oilers moving to Nashville and becoming the Tennessee Titans (so far, the Texans have not filled that void)
And I disqualify Bill Belichick's 24 hour stint as Jets head coach, given the franchise has been in the basement for years (and a mad Jets fan said that Bill made the right call).
The dude in the Guns N’ Roses shirt sounds like Krusty The Clown 😂
And professor frink too
11:13- Walsh was forced out too. Ownership dismantled that team, then they did it again when Harbaugh was the coach.
That former Bear of all people? And yet another former Bear in the form of Mike Singletary? And you got rid of BOTH Joe Montana and Steve Young? 49ers, you utter sacks of garbage! From five Super Bowls and one of football's greatest dynasties to utter trash! Unbelievable. And of course this is from a Bears fan or all people.
grew up as a packer fan that favre departure was hell
Steve Smith was seriously our biggest lost it would’ve been nice to have him in our Super Bowl run. Our Gm was ruining that, glad to see Steve still do stuff for the Carolina team
Dude punched his coach out cant keep him after that lol he also put 2 teammates in the hospital at practices dude was trash
Yeah probably shouldn’t mess with a man that snapped his arm in half while catching a TD pass
I liked Andy Reid but it was time for him to go and need a fresh face unfortunately gave us Chip Kelly for a little bit. 😒
Christmas Ebes yeah and Eagles won a Super Bowl , while Chiefs struggle in playoffs!
Rich Affinito he has lots of regular season wins but man he’s terrible in clock management in three playoffs
@Rich Affinito Reid is a HOF coach. He's elite. Coming from a die-hard Eagles fan, realizing he never won a Super Bowl. He came within 3 points of winning it during the Pats peak of dynasty, while also cheating via Spygate. Not to mention, Reid gave us Peterson -- who in his second season won us the Super Bowl so many of us had been clamoring. I'm still relatively young, but I know old guys, who legit thought they'd die without ever seeing a Birds Super Bowl win. Reid, selflessly, recommended strongly Pederson to Jeffrey Lurie -- during the time when everyone thought Gase, Jackson, Koetter, etc. were seen as the elite.
@Jack park First off, it literally is something that cannot be disproven. It can have shade thrown on it, but I don't even think that's happened. Secondly, it's not BS at all. A cheater who gets away with it never changes. Brady is the GOAT. We all know that. Belichick is just his Phil Jackson. Can develop some important players, but his job is to not get in the way of Brady. And still, Brady doesn't like him. Of course a d-bag like Belichick and the d-bag Brady will cheat . I think DeflateGate was blown out of proportion. I think it was ridiculous he was suspended more than a game or two, but it showed he wanted an edge and took it.
I'm on a Bus right now, traveling back to Baltimore. And coming from the opposite direction I see a Mayflower van just as I get to number 1.
Poetic. I drive by their facility every so often.
I am a Panthers fan, Smith was my favorite player as a kid, I had no idea. I was so hurt when he was kicked out.
If you recall that Season, he not only punished The Carolina Panthers, he punished the entire NFC South. He knew those 4 Teams as well as anyone did.
Number 0. Andrew luck's retirement
#2 and #1 are My Favorites on This List With Cleveland Leaving For Baltimore Then The Colts Leaving Baltimore in 1984!
No Jimmy Johnson leaving Dallas, or Barry Sanders quitting Detroit?
GregzVR Barry at least had a good reason to leave the Lions, just like Megatron. Just a shitty organization with nothing to offer
Jimmy Johnson had the balls to stand up to Jerry Jones. He was not a puppet or a windup doll like Jason Garrett was
Melvin White & Thomas DeCoud still have nightmares about Steve Smith. We never had a chance that game but I loved seeing Smitty ball out
Hehehe Andy Reed on this list... look at him now, chief
30:42 don’t know about that there chief
😂😂😂😂
Hold up. How is T.O. here and Rice not? Rice could still play, as seen when he went to another Superbowl with the Raiders and had 2 of his best seasons and his last game as a 49er was the game that Owens broke the record for most catches in a game. It wasn't time for Jerry to leave. It was time to get A QB who could use Rice And Owens together instead of trying to use T.O. to make Garcia look good. How the greatest being to touch a football EVER didn't retire from the team that he did so much for is not on this list is blasphemy.
Gary Maxion haha blasphemy.
What about Sean Taylor? That is really sad and he was so young and was an amazing player
8:01 when you have ears like that, you don't have a hairstyle like that. Dude looks like one of those lil troll dolls from the 80s.
The reason the HOF is in Ohio is bc they needed a reason for people to actually go to Ohio.
WillJM81280 I’ve been saying that for years! Who the hell in their right frame of mind would decide to want to live in Ohio.
@@sTEVAL570 Try living in Nebraska. If you aren't a Huskers fan, it's very boring and very lonely. Nothing much else goes on there. At least in OH there are a few things to do.
Or because football was invented there
Paul Johnson been there well not Lincoln been to Omaha though still Nebraska has a lot more compared to the entire state of Arkansas now that’s depressing
Rock ‘N Roll Hall of Fame, dipshit.
The Houston Oilers leaving for Nashville was also a devastating move, but nowhere near as bad as the Cleveland Browns leaving for Baltimore or the Baltimore Colts leaving for Indianapolis overnight.
@Rowdy Jr. How about sports history, period!
Brent Granger the Chargers leaving is pretty wack
@@tmlfan7785 Agreed. (explicit) Dean Spanos!
