My brother and I roomed next door to Lyle in a dorm at Yankton College in 1970. He was a nice guy and one hell of a football player. There was around 700 students in that college yet an endless amount of pro-football scouts came to see Lyle. That's how good he was.
@WickedTornado being from New York it was a real culture shock when I arrived in Yankton. Oddly enough a lot of the male students at Yankton were from the northeast. We used to have keg parties out at Lewis and Clark lake. Locals in Yankton told us there were catfish and sturgeon at the bottom of Gavins Pt. dam that were huge.

I could not imagine being a QB against any defense in those days. Lol. You were going to get your ass beat every week. Lol. Modern QBs just don’t realize how easy they got it. Lol.
I met lyle alzado when he played for denver broncos at dave cook sporting goods in 1977 big fan of him til this day even tho he has passed nice gentleman when i met him i was 12 at the time fascanating to have met him
Munoz is BY FAR AND AWAY THE GREATEST TACKLE OF ALL TIME.... Much respect for his amazing play. On a side note... Coach Tom Flores Belongs in the Hall Of Fame.... period.... lester hayes.... todd christiansen....
I attended a special Sunday Night Edition of Monday Night Football that year with the Raiders playing at Dallas. The game ended up being a contemporary classic almost immediately. I sat a couple of rows up in the endzone directly behind the goalpost. My greatest memory of that game is watching Alzado move laterally on all four points faster than what is human to stuff a sweep. He was a black blur of animalistic fury.
I remember that game. I was left O-tackle and I admired Anthony. Wanted to be as good as him. I was a Sophomore in Highschool when that game came out and a friend who was a total Alzado fan and I watched that game. good memory!
Anthony Munoz, one of the greatest offensive lineman of all time.issing only three games in his career. Can't get better than that! And played for the Bengals. YEAH

Love this! Nothing like analyzing a game from the perspective of the trenches. In fact, before I analyze anything on the football field I pay close attention to the line of scrimmage, because 99% of the game is played there.
As a native Angeleno just getting into football those were the days! Including the euphoria of SB XVIII and LA's first SB title. I also recall the sinking feeling of losing to the Patriots in 85'. That was the beginning of the end of that Plunkett, Alzado, Marcus era but the ones that followed were almost as memorable. I have vivid memories of watching Elway desperately fleeing across the Coliseum sod with Howe Long in hot pursuit 😆
Imagine having Kenny King and Marcus Allen together on the field as your running backs? Football was 1000 times better to watch back then. The Raiders were absolutely stacked with talent.
Yeah but players weren't nearly as large back then as today, or as fast. Play was probably dirtier, but far fewer newtons flying into each other overall.
Les Rosin and the Raiders went on to win the Super Bowl that year with Jim Plunkett at quarterback did not throw interception in the Super Bowl and Tom Flores head coach he was a good coach
@@tonytooreal2433 Are you stupid? Calling modern NFL players pussy is like saying lions aren't dangerous.How about you go play with them? You wouldn't last 5 minutes.
In 1984 I was a 8th grader & was returning home from a vacation Via LAX to Newark.. There was no mistaking the man in the streaked out white Izod shirt . He was a beast of a man.
To all making comments about Alzado's steroid use: 90% of NFL players were and are using them. He was the FIRST player to publicly admit it and that hurt his legacy, unfairly. He belongs in the HOF. He was a BEAST and his competitors were on the same stuff he was. NOBODY beat Munoz like he did. Give Alzado the respect he deserves!
I graduated from the same high school Anthony Munoz did. Chaffey High in Ontario, CA. He is the highlight of the city. Every year they have Anthony Munoz day. Parades and everything.
But, NATURAL ability will ALWAYS be SUBPAR to performance enhancement drugs.....ie. STEROIDS! Argue all you want, but it's f***ing FACT! And, yes, gotta chop your feet...lol.
Those were the days for Raider fans! One of the many things that really made the defense great was that Lester Hayes and Mike Haynes consistently ran a man for man coverage which opened everyone else on the defense up and opposing QB's had no one to throw to- and poor old Munoz had to block Alzado? He was lost before the kickoff...
The Greatest Lawrence Golden Tornado. A 3/4 defensive end that recorded 112.5 sacks and nearly 1000 career tackles. 24 forced fumbles and elected to 3 Pro-Bowls. A Super Bowl Champion who was feared on the field. Belongs in the Hall of Fame.

It's a horrible what happened to Lyle Alzado. He gave everything (LITERALLY) to the sport. "I started taking anabolic steroids in 1969 and never stopped. It was addicting, mentally addicting. Now I'm sick, and I'm scared. Ninety percent of the athletes I know are on the stuff. We're not born to be 300 lb (140 kg) or jump 30 ft (9.1 m). But all the time I was taking steroids, I knew they were making me play better. I became very violent on the field and off it. I did things only crazy people do. Once a guy sideswiped my car and I beat the hell out of him. Now look at me. My hair's gone, I wobble when I walk and have to hold on to someone for support, and I have trouble remembering things. My last wish? That no one else ever dies this way."
Today's football players are way bigger and stronger than the guys in the 70's and 80's. Imagine if they could legally hit qb's now like they did back then?
I saw Munoz play when I was a kid at USC...they ran all over Alabama Ohio state Michigan notre Dame cal Washington Cal Texas Tech LSU ucla Stanford. .like 39 games in a row 2 guys won the Heisman..Charlie white and Marcus. .Ricky Belk almost did.. ( Tony Dorsett) .but a lot of it was Munoz .he was just as geest in the NFL. ..
Back then the average O-line player weighed about 272 lbs. Today it's about 40 lbs heavier than that, without a significant decrease in speed. Players are larger and hit harder than they could back then.
Lyle was a raging bull on the field, course the steroids he took helped immensely. This was the football I grew up watching, tough defense's who would make you pay if your head wasn't on a swivel. Today's game is nowhere near what the game was meant to be since they've neutered the defense's and skewed the rules for offense.
Munoz is older than myself but he grew up in my neighborhood and we went to the same high school. I never heard about him coming back though, maybe because we were too barrio LOL
The last year an AFC team would win the SB for a long time. Niners, Bears, Giants, Redskins, Niners twice, Giants, Redskins, Cowboys twice, Niners, Cowboys, Packers. Quite a run of dominance, started by Montana beating these Bengals the next season.
And I read somewhere, in that during the time when he was dying, someone try to help him financially by having some kind of fundraiser ( to raise money ) for him, and not a single person show up..something like that..I guess he burned too many bridges in his lifetime..sad and tragic for him when you think about it..
@@pallen49 he was a bully and a a..hole what you expect??he thought he was above other guys in the league like he was special...guys didn't like him at all!!?I was there at that time.not surprised nobody showed....
@@AlejandroSanchez-pl6jw rough childhood??u kidding right??75 percent at least had a rough childhood.the combination of steroids and HGH killed him nothing else....

@@tchoupitoulos lies and you know it
Alzado always knew how to pick his enemies every week
Alzados beast mode button never shut off
Back when i loved the game.
Not so much anymore
Very sad
#77. He hadn't used steroids, he'd be in the hall of Fame today.
Looks like Al had a fun day.
The good ole days
I’m 22 and this looks a lot more rough than todays ball.
The way players are getting hurt these days, imagine playing back in these games
The Raiders has a great D-Line that year. Long, Alzado, Townsend and Pickel.
Lyle was a raging bull on the field, course the steroids he took helped immensely. This was the football I grew up watching, tough defense's who would make you pay if your head wasn't on a swivel. Today's game is nowhere near what the game was meant to be since they've neutered the defense's and skewed the rules for offense.
Munoz is older than myself but he grew up in my neighborhood and we went to the same high school. I never heard about him coming back though, maybe because we were too barrio LOL
They both had their moments.
The last year an AFC team would win the SB for a long time. Niners, Bears, Giants, Redskins, Niners twice, Giants, Redskins, Cowboys twice, Niners, Cowboys, Packers. Quite a run of dominance, started by Montana beating these Bengals the next season.
Alzado was roided out of his mind. I'll never forget his interview with Arsenio right before he died. He regretted every bit of it.
And I read somewhere, in that during the time when he was dying, someone try to help him financially by having some kind of fundraiser ( to raise money ) for him, and not a single person show up..something like that..I guess he burned too many bridges in his lifetime..sad and tragic for him when you think about it..
@@pallen49 he was a bully and a a..hole what you expect??he thought he was above other guys in the league like he was special...guys didn't like him at all!!?I was there at that time.not surprised nobody showed....
Bryan Mathews steroids had very little to due with his death
Ron Cassudy he had a rough childhood
@@AlejandroSanchez-pl6jw rough childhood??u kidding right??75 percent at least had a rough childhood.the combination of steroids and HGH killed him nothing else....
