I used to wear 2 different cleats in soccer cuz my dog chewed up my left Tango Pro. Then I learned they stopped making them. Being right-footed, I still had the important one, so I continued to wear it for years with some random cleat on the left.
That’s actually pretty interesting. I always assumed that the quality of the athletes was just improving over time, and that was the reason why passing and receiving records are broken so often these days. Apparently it’s just the ball. Crazy!

The first ever American football is the ball used in the Princeton vs Rutgers game in 1869, more than 70 years before the 1940s ball shown in the video. The ball in the video isn’t even the first NFL ball as the ball changed shape and size in 1932 and the first NFL season was in 1920. Also, the “old” ball in this video is worn and weathered. A new ball in 1940 used for a game wouldn’t have been like that.
Basically, Sammy Baugh is the greatest NFL player of all time. Guy was the greatest QB AND punter of his time with this horrendous ball. 187TD's passing And AVERAGING 45 yards per punt. With a then NFL record of an 85 yard punt. He also a top DB of his era, as well.
The old footballs are what made the passing yards and gameplay that much more impressive, looking back imo. Doesn’t mean it was optimal however. Interesting. I’d have to see it tested more to form a full opinion.
did they even pass it back then? You know i always wondered what it would be like if both the NFL and the NBA had variations where they played with the old rules.
@@jmgonzales7701 I wish they had a seperate league for that too. But I have a feeling unless it was majority or all old rules that aren’t used/have* been replaced, people will think it’s “redundant” or not worth it. I do like seeing the XFL’s rule differences though.
Of course that’s going to happen when an 80 year old ball’s leather deteriorates and the bladder is,pretty much,gone. Same thing will happen to that NFL ball in 80 years unless it’s kept in pristine condition.

Wouldn't that eventually come out the ball as it ages and gets reinflated?

The first few footballs actually were closer to a rugby ball for obvious reasons lol.
Weird to think somebody is gunna do this video again in about 70 years
This shit was funny😂😂
The fact that the ball is made of organic material and 80 years old may have altered its performance a bit as well.
It was probably a lot closer to the duke on day 1

You can just imagine back then when good QBs would throw like 50 yards. Them guys back then was GOATED
man i wish my throws were like that
Gives me a ton more respect to Johnny Unitas lol
Veridict:The Buffallo Bills want to sign you as their kicker.
makes me appreciate Sammy Baugh and Otto Graham way more
Verdict it is no wonder why they didn’t pass the ball 💀
... And Uncle Rico could fling that relic a quarter mile.
Looks like the football we played with in middle school
idk y but i love the way the old ball looks
The modern ball is radioactive
Running games were a thing back in the 40s
the cowboys should sign this guy as their kicker
The old school ball was just a ball to play with. The new one is designed for aerodynamics and such.
Looks like he just took a linesman ball outta the bag! And called it the first!
Plus in the old days the field was often a quagmire.
“Clearly more designed for passing” literally the same thing just a little heavier
Footballs go back like 80-100 years before the date you gave that one
Crazy how the ogs balled out
The thing is a fuckin' relic and they're just kicking the bloody shit out of it.
Surprised how little they’ve changed the design of the ball over 80 years
Yea the old QBs had a sidearm motion. With a bigger ball I can see why.
Balls were bigger and rounder in the 20s
I actually have both of the footballs shown in this video.
Who else didn’t notice that he had different cleats on until the second time you watched it😂😂😂
Watermelon??
Current NFL players: “let’s bring the old ball back….please”
That old football looks like you chopped a cows butt then added show laces on it! LOL
Makes me wonder if these kickers and QB’s actually have strength…
explains why they only ran the ball back then 😅
You also have to remember that the leather has aged and probably doesn't have the same grip or tension it woikdve had
I love it keep the work❤❤❤❤
El old mucho mejor por la calidad de jugadores y lances o patadas de pura fuerza 💪
Dang he can catch those 😳😯
It actually doesn’t look all that bad, just a bit less pointed on the very end
Go to show you just how good those players were.
Jerry Rice watching this as the GOAT: 😉
Except jerry rice didnt play in the 40’s dummy😂
That’s how I know old school players had more talent, catching that ball a pain
Kick with me

The AFL football was even more aerodynamic than the modern NFL football. The old original ball was basically a rugby ball.
Old ball seems like itd make for a way better game.
It looked like chocolate

I can't tell the difference between the old and the modern one
Old is make you work harder and better, a new one is make you work less and lie the player power
Damn I really thought the ball was that color 😂
Imagine if they broke the football
he has got very good over the past year or so
Bro, he got two different shoes on bro
Dudes used to kick that old ball barefoot 😮
No; they didn’t, where did you hear that from?
Can you tell me what is the name of that machine to pass balls
Yooo it’s Twevar Lorance
Dude, do an 80 football vs today. That is when all the great QBs were...This would give me more respect for Elway, Marino, Aikman, etc...
Old football was much more run based anyway
Before I watched this video I thought everything got worse over time 😁
The modern. Definitely
They need to go back to the old design.
BRING BACK THE RUNNING GAME !!!
When was like a soccer ball but with laces
Imagine how good the QBs would be in todays football 👀
The ball hasn’t been mudded.
Well yeah, the 1940s balls were basically rugby balls.
Lions pick up mag for a kicker
So old players need more credit that’s all I get from this video
I thought the old one would have been the obvious winner! Why would they change something if it didn't work better
I’ve got one of those from the 90s 😂
that is so quiet Siri I need to poop a phone📞
