Who else loves his determination
Hank and Ed must have been tight. Every time Ed needed a favor from an NFL coach, Hank seemed the one guy willing to say yes. And Ed always made Hank look great.
Thank you for posting. I grew up in New Orleans in the 1960s and 1970s. I attended the first Saints game in September 1967 (against the Los Angeles Rams) and many more after that. The footage of the 1976 Saints practicing at their former training facility on David Drive in Metairie, Louisiana, is amazing. I also attended Super Bowl IV - played in New Orleans - when Hank Stram won the Super Bowl as head coach of the Kansas City Chiefs. In addition, the scenes with some former Saints greats - Chuck Muncie, Rich Szaro, and Andy Dorris - was enjoyable too. The Sabols were brilliant filmmakers.
As a guy who loves in a different country, but has had the US influence his whole life, seeing this is absolutely crazy. Not only that, its even crazier watching 1976 life. Its a perfect little nugget of nostalgia
What a gift! Pure joy to watch.
Fr
This film is gold! Got my daughter to watch it. She wanted to know if he is still coaching! LOL Glad to have this online for all to watch.
I love these nfl films videos and in my opinion the struggling teams are more fascinating
Hank Stram later worked for CBS Radio on Monday Night Football with Jack Buck doing play by play. At halftime Brent Musburger speculated that Stram would perfect for the St. Louis Cardinals vacancy, but after getting fired by the Saints, he was finished with Coaching.
Love NFL coach Hank Steam. He is truly a legend.
Hank stram
@@jamonboykin4974 let's articulate the ball the the field boys ! Lmao
@@ericsigersmith6067 It was “matriculate” - which actually means entering or enrolling in a university.
Why he used that particular phrase is still a bit of a mystery, at least to me, but then, as stated in this film, Hank Stram spoke a language all his own, with his own unique vocabulary. “Just keep matriculating that ball down the field.”
@@johncronin9540 Even used the name of his pet dauschand, Smush in plays.
@@johncronin9540 65 Toss Power Trap!
1976...my senior year in high school football. Enjoyed this throwback. Stram relished in the finer details of the game. No. 78 was Elois Grooms, defensive end. He played at the same college that I did: Tennessee Tech.
I can't watch the greatest football coach when it comes to being on camera be sad. Hank deserves to live forever
Was this on Don Coryell?
@user-pv8jy1nt8f Coryall was the GOAT!!!!
This has to be done again, this is amazing!! As a Chiefs fan, massive respect to Coach Stram, always thankful for him helping us matriculate the ball down the field and get our first Superbowl
Hank actually had three AFL titles. Can’t forget the Dallas Texans.
Didn't know that
@@ericpackers1700 The Chiefs started out in Dallas as the Texans, alongside the Cowboys. They won the AFL title in 1962, but Lamar Hunt saw that the Cowboys were going to win out over the Texans long term and he moved his team to Kansas City.
@@untexan Did you know many peeps thought the 1962 Dallas Texans of the AFL would have beaten your 1962 Dallas Cowpokes?
@ericpackers1700 it's amazing when you are in a game and get the ball in the second half basically the turning point of the game. Special teams is important because of preparation seeing the same teams a lot
@@untexan Hunt got a sweetheart deal from Kansas City, 2 years free rent in Municipal Stadium and 3 times the season ticket holders in Dallas, it was actually double, but it was an improvement to Hunt. And the Cowboys paid for part of the move.
I like Hank Stram. I learned a lot about home from this vid!!!!
How much longer was archie there ?
@@ericsigersmith2831 1981, I think.
The Saints did not play at Lambeau until 1989. They played in Milwaukee in '68, '71, '73, '76, '78, '79 and '85, losing all but '71.
@@DNSKansas County Stadium had both teams sharing the same sideline, not a good setup for football.
"You're not an inventor. You're a kicker." 😂😂
Coming from a Vikings fan, Hank Stram is one of the most under appreciated coaches in NFL history. His mic’d up moments in Super Bowl IV are legendary. This documentary only adds to his mystique in my opinion. You could tell he wanted to win at all costs!
No joke
What's the significance of you being a Vikings fan?
Means it's not bias opinion
@@Amarknash It was the Vikings that Stram’s Chiefs defeated in Super Bowl IV.
@@vonnoosh Stram was the winningest coach in AFL history.
He should have ran 65 Toss Power Trap
Should have thrown a piece of popcorn , like thomas Edison
The name of my fantasy team...
Hank Stram is a football legend, 'nuff said. And with all due respect to Hank - there was NO SHAME in losing to the '76 Falcons. The Grits Blitz is STILL the greatest defense in NFL history. They only gave up 129 points for an average about 9 points a game. But. Nobody knew that yet.
Watching the bads teams on the old nfl films are almost cooler to watch than winning ones unless it's my 97 and 97 and 2010 packers or Mike holmgens first year
1977 they were ranked 1 - 2 , 1st in Points against- 129 , 2nd in Total Defense 3,242 - , 1972 Dolphins 1 - 1 , in points against 171 , 1st in Total Defense ,,3,297 .For 1 year they were the best , and in the history books .
When did he tell them about matriculating the ball down the field?
65 toss power trap
@@raymondsolisjr.1262 wow didnt know they played in Milwaukee then back and forth like that I know they did a few times but not that much
Beake related to hugh freeze? The line coach?
Super Bowl IV where his AFC 1969 Chiefs were huge underdogs to the Vikings. Namath’s Jets (actually Jets defense) beating the Colts was seen as a fluke but the Chiefs beating the Vikings meant that AFC football was just as competitive amongst the higher teams. Find the “America’s Game” for the 1969 Chiefs plus the NFL Films for Super Bowl & Sabol tells the story of how they paid Hank Stram $250 cash to agree to be Mic’d Up for the game!!! Len Dawson said they had no idea Stram was wearing the microphone!!! It’s pure gold & captures a moment in history where the real story is 20 times better than the media hype.
@@r.williamcomm7693 people forget that
People must have loved popcorn back then.
Hank to Bobby Douglass - When you leave the huddle, you say 'let's go." Drop that part.
Douglass (laughing) - Okay.
Hank - That takes one second that you might need. I hope they already know they're supposed to go.
I love that. Just the little details.
10:33 check out that _Superbowl IV_ door knocker on his ring finger
More NFL history plz
This is gold!
By the time Hank Stram was coaching the New Orleans Saints, that franchise hadn't seen a winning record in its first 10 seasons. In 1976,
the Saints lost star quarterback Archie Manning for the season due to
arm surgery. In this video, Stram prepares the team for a game against
Green Bay in Milwaukee (the Packers had two homes then, Lambeau
Field and Milwaukee County Stadium). The Packers were not world
beaters themselves under head coach Bart Starr at that time.
I miss Hank !!
Jason Garrett's Dad looks just like him!!!!
His dad was a better coach
@@raymondsolisjr.1262 that really him?
Jim Garrett's return to the NFL after his short stint with the WFL's version of the Houston Texans.
Great coach..gotta find me some of them sweet wristbands Bobby D was wearing🏈🌞👊
Lefty
Love this videos
War eagle ur right
When talking about the greatest coaches of all time, this guy almost never gets mentioned. The other one is Paul Brown. These two helped set the standard for all other coaches to follow.
8:10 Hank was wicked savage with his humor 😆
Love ya Hank CHIEFS SB CHAMPS BABYYYY
Wasnt sure if saints or chiefs would both win one
Keep that ball trickalating down the field. Ijs
That Chiefs team that he coached had incredible talent. This Saints team was had no one I remember.
@@whataboutrob442 After that he did Monday Night Football on the CBS Radio network as a color analyst, while Jack Buck did play by play, serious football fans, turned down the TV audio and turned up the radio.
This is such a treasure
i think this was the best one.
Bobby Douglass had one of the strongest arms in the game. He felt he could heave the ball 80 yards, maybe 100. But his accuracy was just not there.
Maybe the strongest arm in the history of the game. Where the ball would go was anybody's guess.
The Tuesday of this week was the 1976 presidential election. Nobody mentions Jimmy Carter or Gerald Ford throughout this film! Maybe NFL Films cut it, but strange not to hear one word about it.
New Orleans messed up when the fired Hank!!! That is why it took them 40 year to win a Super Bowl!!!
Didn't they hire bum Phillips right after ?
So the Saints fired him because he didn’t win enough while Archie was out? They had some terrible ownership and management back in the 70s and 80s
Owner John Mecom fired Stram for being the first team to lose to Tampa in 1977 (and only winning 7 games in two seasons).
@@79Saints Bill Bidwill fired Don Coryell as well after the St. Louis collapse and also losing to the Buccaneers during the last game of 77
@@howardcosell2022 yeah, and there were some NOLA beat writers advocating Coryell for the Saints job in 1978 -but allegedly his wife didn’t want to come to New Orleans.
@@79Saints Coryell would have had Chandler and Muncie before they went to San Diego along with a better QB in Archie if he had better offensive coaching
Wow I didn't know all that and I consider myself a nfl history novice lol but I'm a packers fan
Looks like a version of Hard Knocks 1.0
That pick 6 was in the middle of the game. It wasn't on the final drive.
Early third quarter
@@DNSKansas classic nfl films love it
Is Steve sabol related to lou ferrigno
Yes.
I think if Archie Manning is healthy, Hank keeps his job. He was a great coach and this team wasn’t bad, but no one had confidence in a backup QB. Fascinating documentary. Ed and Steve are greatly missed.
The Saints fired Stram over a loss to the hapless Buccaneers. That firing kicked off a period of total ineptitude that didn’t end until they hired Jim Mora.
At 35:43 is he saying “you bad” or “you bet”? 🤔😂
That last totally belongs in Walter camps gridiron football. This guys like pre 1st down in his mentality of it. The ww2 veteran players oh are they fun to watch. Oh Paul said it best with picnic level threat to a war veteran.
No 65 tpt,leonard
Sucks it didn’t work out with the aints. Chiefs shouldn’t have ever fired him anyway. But it’s all good, we finally won the super bowl again. Finally, 50 years later
Ya its like the great bum Phillip's from the oilers when he coached the saints also
The Saints during when Hank Stram was there , was still an Expansion team. They had players of 3rd or Lower String on the Roster. Mainly.
Instead of better/decent Veteran players including free agents
@@stuchbrosmnore8627 They finally turned it around when Jim Mora became coach.
@@rockvilleraven Yeah especially with that Dome Patrol Defense.
Bobby Hebert was almost-above-Average QB. However, it wasn't enough especially since they didn't have a better Offensive Coach in general.
They just had mainly running plays especially by Running Back Dalton Hilliard.
@@stuchbrosmnore8627 Had the USFL played in the fall, Ted Marchibroda was slated to be next head coach of the Baltimore Stars, the team was going to go downhill.
Bobby Douglass was clearly not Len Dawson.
👏👏
They don’t make coach like that anymore. Andi Reid, Belichick, is the dying bridge.
I miss the great Jim Johnson may he rest in peace
looks like saints practiced in the shadow of a coal power plant
YA JUUUUST DONT SEE THE PLAID JACKET ANYMORE 30:00
Archie Manning hurt. Henry had the inaccurate Bobby Douglass, along with two excellent backs in Chuck Muncie and Tony Galbreath. If he would have obtained a decent QB, and run the ball like Chuck Knox or Don Shula - he would have had done well with the Saints. Henry wanted to do all the fancy stuff - but running would have served him better. I never understood why a guy as smart as Hank could not have utilized what he had.
Please don't stretch 4:3 videos in the future.
What you mean
@@ericsigersmith6067 The aspect ratio was stretched out.
Was archie manning on this team the injured player?
It’s sad to see Hank like this
I think I only saw him three athletic looking players. No wonder the Saints sucked. They didn’t have football players.
With Bobby Douglass at QB and rookies Chuck Muncie and Tony Galbreath at RB, Stram was better off running the option offense
@@howardcosell2022 Should have tried to coax Len Dawson out of retirement
@@howardcosell2022 lmao Archie was hurt because that awful team screwed him
@@ericpackers1700 Manning took a beating of course. The Saints gave up the most sacks the year before which led to Archie missing the season. Stram should have done something drastic like running the option, having a disposable QB in Bobby Douglass and rookies in the backfield
Hmm
Weird when the pay sucked they cared more for the game and each other.
Money ruins all sadly
Money is the root of all evil.
@@rockvilleraven before they had earl Campbell
Ost
Saints would have beaten the Packers if Stram had just told them about matriculating the ball down the field. smh.
And ran a 65 toss power trap!=)
Was this when bart Starr was coaching the packers?
@@ericsigersmith6067 Yeah. Starr was the coach in GB from 75-83.
4th
2nd
Chicken
Inspirational coaching just pumps me up lmao jk
1st
I think they pulled the plug on Hank a little soon. Saints were beyond horrible.
Hank Stram simply didn't have the players to win in New Orleans. Kind of a sad coda to a great coaching career.
You can see will the Saints were losers back then.
2nd
