- Wow, did this one ever enhance and restore nicely. This recording was in very good shape, but VERY dark. Was able to completely bring the brightness back with Resolve, as well as dial in the color. I also used Topaz to denoise, sharpen, upscale, and double the framerate. Incredible before/after shots here - imgbox.com/g/9d0qN1SJsy -- My thanks to Fort Knox and his Seahawks CZcams channel -- www.youtube.com/@fortknox4740... -- for providing the DVD files for this project.

Now, we get to see a glimpse of what they looked like when they first aired.
Hell yeah
Remarkable restoration. Thank you for your hard work and dedication.
Another great video sir! Thank you again! I've mentioned before that I'm a lifetime Packers fan, but also a total NFL FAN AS WELL! The Chargers, Seahawks, Chiefs, Broncos, and Raiders, back when they were all part of the AFC West. I also liked the🐬🐬Miami🐬Dolphins🐬🐬 in the AFC as well. Back in 70's the Seahawks had some really great players. Jim Zorn was the QB and a damn good one. Sherman Smith, a decent RB, and the Legendary Steve Largent, one of the BEST all-time WR's in the 🏈🏉NFL🏉🏈! The early 70's 🐬Dolphins🐬 were also epic! Larry Czonka, Bob Griese, Mercury Morris. This will be a great game to watch!
@@michaelminard2524His workmanship is SECOND TO NONE! BRILLIANT FLAT OUT BRILLIANT!
Nothing like 80’s NFL! Where did 40 years go?
Very Fast! I know 🤔
Now football is a joke
@@davemartino5997It’s a scripted business now. They’ll get Patrick Mahomes to ten Super Bowl wins before it’s all said and done.
Curt Warner, the RB, is the forgotten Curt Warner. He was overshadowed by the Rams/Cardinals QB. Warner was an excellent RB.
Dave Kreig and Kirk Cousins are basically the same QB. Once you see this, you will never unsee it.
Watched this game in the day room towards the end of Air Force Basic Training. Was definitely smiling at the end!!
Love those 1983 Seattle Seahawks Uniforms and Face Masks for Offensive and Defensive Linemen
Even though I'm a diehard Bronco fan (not an easy thing these days), going back to the late 70's (BIG Craig Morton fan), seeing any of these old broadcasts in better quality is just spectacular (and extra credit to seeing the pre-game stuff, wow)! Thanks for all you do!!!
This game was played on NYE. I attended the Broncos vs. Seahawks Wild Card playoff game (Seattle's first ever) at the Kingdome on Christmas Eve. A night I'll never forget.
Morton was an underappreciated QB. His stats were better than Namath's, and as good as Stabler's, but they each WON the Super Bowl, so they made the HOF. Morton led two different franchises to their first ever SBs, but was a turnover machine in both games.
Career stats:
Morton 183 TD, 187 INT, 81-62-1 as a starter, only threw 20 INTs twice his entire career, 73.5 career QBR
Stabler 194 TD, 222 INT, 96-49-1 as starter, threw 20, 30, 22 and 28 INTs in consecutive seasons, 75.3 QBR
Namath 173 TD, 220 INT. 62-63-4, led the AFL in INTs four times, 65.5 QBR
Namath was finished by age 34, Stabler was a terrible QB after he left Oakland, with a 66.1 QBR in Houston and N.O., while Morton had a resurgence in Denver, having 5 good seasons, throwing 74 TD and only 62 INT and a QBR of 79.7 - including a 90.5 at age 38, leading Denver to a 10-5 record.
Craig suffered 3 bad years with the Giants, which was just a dreadful team while he was there. If you exclude those seasons, he threw 154 TD and 138 INT for his career, with a QBR over 78.
I've always wondered if Craig had won the Big Game, would he be in enshrined in Canton? He was succeeded by arguably the two greatest QBs of all-time, Staubach and Elway, so many people forget that he was the QB who took both of those franchises to their first Super Bowls (and Denver to their first ever playoff run).
Take out his NYG seasons, and his record as a starting QB was 73-37-1, a winning pct of 66.4. Stabler never played on a bad team, and his career winning pct was 66.2.
Morton was 7-6 in playoff games, 0-2 in the SB
Stabler was 6-6 in playoff games and 1-0 in SB (one of his losses was to Morton in 1977)
Namath? Made the playoffs only twice, going 1-1 and winning the most famous SB ever.
If those two guys are in the Hall of Fame, Morton should be, too.
Peace
I couldn't agree more with you and I'm born and raised in Boston and I miss the old stadium and the old teams before Brady
I didn't become a Bronco fan until 86.. so I really never knew any QB other than Elway. That spoiled me. Since then it's been other teams retreads.
Wow you've done a whale of a job with this one! One of the bigger playoff upsets of the '80s as well.
It may have been the first real playoff upset in NFL history. I know we had Houston in '78 & '79 and the '79 Rams over Dallas but a 9-7 WC team beating a 12-4 division champ? It was hard to believe Miami was out.
I have a copy of this game from about 6 years ago but nothing like this one. Awesome quality!! Thanks Dave for the work you do.
I as well
Hi there R. I hope all is well with you-
As always…Pete Axthelm with a Freezing Cold Take.
This game was blacked out in Miami. It looks great!
That's sad, and surprising, for a playoff game to be blacked out
Yeah typical South Florida at that time, the local news stations usually buys the rest of the tickets so the games could be shown on tv.
I was at this game. As a young Dolfan, this was a tough loss.
Wow, what a gift Dave! This Dolphin fan thanks you!
leading up to this point in time, this was easily the biggest win in Seahawks history.
Ah! Chuck Knox . . .
A friend of mine that lived in the Seattle region was a fanatical San Francisco 49ers fan since the 1960s, where during a social gathering, that friend was introduced to Seahawks coach Knox, but refused to shake Chuck's hand, as my friend put it: [in a hostile tone] 'He previously coached the Rams! That guy was the enemy to the 'niners!'
It was a puzzling response, as it was around the time when Knox made the Seahawks in contention for an AFC title.
I felt like saying to that friend: "Get a life!"
Im glad I get to see this on the rewind. I missed most of this game becauae I saw the Seahawks and Dolphins play before and I was playing a non stop marathon of Colecovision that Inhad gotten days earlier for Christmas.
During the 1983 regular season, Marv Albert called NBC NFL games with John Brodie and Bob Trumpy worked with Bob Costas.
In the playoffs, you get Albert and Trumpy. Interesting.
John Brodie worked the Orange Bowl 2 days later with Don Criqui. Interesting he didn’t work the playoff game given he was in Miami.
Love watching theses old games Thanks Dave you did a great job
That doggone Seattle defensive line gave my Raiders FITS for YEARS... I was halfway thru 8th grade when this game was played... LOL
I’m with you Doc. AFC West rivalry with the Raiders was epic! Those MNF games were awesome. I’d say it was a 50/50 battle, sometime my Hawks won, but Plunkett had our number too.
@@NO_OPEC_NO_PROBLEM yall were the ONLY team that gave me pause back then. I was petrified before this game. Hahahaha
MARINO, Best QB to never win a super bowl. But that doesn't take away anything from his greatness. If Bradshaw had that 84 Dolphin defense instead of the steel curtain he'd have alot more room on his fingers
Marino, Brady, Montana…The All-time GOAT starting line-up…
Yeah in my opinion he definitely was one of the greatest to play the game, I really wish he would have won at least one Superbowl. Miss watching him on Sundays.
I love these videos! I remember watching this one with Curt Warner at RB for the Seahawks.
Dave you are red hot right now with these Seahawks uploads as you uploaded another enhanced playoff classic. I got a copy of this game on my computer and I can replace that one as well with this clear quality beauty. I love watching the Hawks big upset over the Dolphins altough the Fins got their revenge the year after when the Dolphins won the AFC title.
I loved those Seahawks unis. So much better than the abominations they wear now.
Dave Krieg was just getting started… so underrated
That's some nice work on the brightness. I took a look at the before and after shots and you brought it back all the way. Once could even say the difference is like night and day (see what I did there?).
This is the AFC Divisional Playoffs, not the Wild Card. Love your work, by the way. I check your page every day to see what's new. Please keep going.
Thank you, you're right :) Correction made.
As do I! Outstanding!
I remember this game vividly because it was our highlights game of the week on Channel 4 in the UK when I was a kid. The thing I remember the most was in the UK game intro they asked a young couple who were Dolphin fans what their predictions were for game and they laughing said "... Dolphins are going to win and Seattle would have a better chance if they didn't turn up " As a Hawks fan my blood boiled at the insult but we had the last laugh, 😊.Dave Kreig ( my all time favourite player) was in the zone and Curt Warner our rookie RB was at his sensational best and we dropped the hammer on Dolphins. Can't believe it was 40 years ago seeing the Hawks in the throw back uniforms last Sunday I half expected to see Kreig, Warner, Largent, Greene and Easley out there,
Go Hawks
ANOTHER HOMERUN BY THE BABE RUTH OF UPLOADERS!!
Everytime i see the hook and trailer against San Diego it makes me happy and sad at the same time.
Ah, the GOAT...Dan the mf man, Marino. Thank you, sir...
I was at the game in Miami, where I lived at the time. It was a nasty day, not typical Miami weather, rain and chilly. New Year's Eve. (And it was even worse that night; a terrible New Year's Eve for Miami). Marino had tweaked his knee a couple of weeks before and was not the same. The Dolphins lost this game but beat Seattle in the playoffs the next year.
Yeah I was living in South Florida at that time as well. I remember this game what a tough loss for the Dolphins and they were the favorite to win. But they got even with them eventually.
New Year's 1984 reminds me of Mike Rozier (Nebraska's Heisman winner) complaining about the weather in Miami where it was -50° or worse wind chills in Nebraska. Then they proceeded to get upset by the irritating ass Canes 31-30. We went on vacation from Alabama to Florida and we escaped an ice/snow storm but chilly weather in the Tampa area. Seems like yesterday.
Yeah. Really felt that like was going to flourish into a cool cross-country rivalry, but Curt Warner's knee injury and then a series of less-than-stellar drafts sent the Hawks in the wrong direction.
WHOLLY CATFISH this came out nice. Thanks for uploading!!!!!!! Maybe one day we'll get Super Bowl 16 like this??? Just a thought :D
Thank you :) Unfortunately I've done test uploads of Super Bowl XVI and it gets blocked for viewing worldwide because of copyright
@@davevolskysbackdoor5673 Ahhhh damnit. Well, thanks for trying.
I remember this like it was yesterday. When Largent made the big catch at the end I pretty much lost it. When Warner scored a play later I really lost it! We got killed by a better Raiders team in AFC championship, but the 83 season was a lot of fun. I've always wondered how the 84 season might have turned out if Warner didn't blow out his knee. Great video, thanks so much.
Same... that Warner knee injury was a heart breaker.
This game was THE highlight of my childhood. I had just turned 8 a few days before this game and when my mom asked what I wanted for my birthday, I said "the Seahawks to win the playoffs." I guess they didn't win the WHOLE playoffs, but because of this win, they were 2-1 in the playoffs, so they essentially "won the playoffs."
GREAT game.
RIP #20 RB David Overstreet... After this season he was in a one car accident in 1984 and died... #BoomerSooner
It's really eerie seeing him with a number on his helmet. Of course, next year the Dolphins would honor him.
@@MaestroDawg65 sad stuff for a dude ao young. 😢
Nat Moore, a WR with a neck roll.
Charles Bowser had the sad duty of replacing the late Larry Gordon in the Dolphins' starting lineup. Gordon, a starter at linebacker from 1976-82, died of a massive heart attack while jogging in June 1983, two weeks shy of his 29th birthday.
Kind of surprised Don Chiqui didn’t call this game as he did the Orange Bowl on Monday night
Don Criqui
“Knox knocks fans socks off!” Headline, the next morning’s paper.
If you can find the 1982 AFC Championship game that would be awesome ...
I don't have a copy, but even if I did I think it would be blocked for viewing by the NFL if I uploaded it, which is why no one on CZcams has posted it. I tested the two 1982 Jet playoff victories yesterday and they both get blocked as well.
My former RAMS, Chuck Knox, Bob Brudzinski, Cullen Bryant, Charle Young and of course, Curt Warner!
Interestingly, 16 years later, the Miami Dolphins won at Seattle. It was the last win of Dan Marino’s career. Also, the final game played at the Kingdome.
In Fulton Walker's defense that football obviously got more damp as the game progressed, but @22:48 they showed that stat that he had led the NFL that regular season with 26.7 yards per KO return, before averaging just 17.3 yards per return off six KO returns in this game and that was the difference. Even before Coach Knox arrived, Seattle's KO coverage units were already legendary.
The quality of a 40 year old video is amazing..
After the enhancement it is :)
Wow. If you ever wondered why Chuck Knox was called “Ground Chuck”, this is a perfect example. Surprised Steve Largent’s career didn’t die under his leadership
After Warner ripped up his ACL in 84 "ground chuck" turned into "air knox" the goog old days at the dome.
Will meet next season Geno vs Tua
Duper with the two bar face cage.
Ole school football 🏈/ love ❤ these days 😊
I'm really enjoying these 80's Seahawks Games. I've had the pleasure of watching the work that you've done. I wonder if you can do some enhancement work on the 1983 AFC Wild Card Game Broncos vs Seahawks, the Week 13 Seahawks @ Broncos game from 1984, and Both Raiders vs Seahawks games from 1988.??
That would be nice to see.
Several months back I got all available Seahawk broadcasts from 78-84 in a trade and I've been working on them here and there amongst all the other games I have. I have another trade in the works to acquire the Seattle games from 85-88 as well. I have over 500 games total to possibly enhance at some point. I try to alternate between Seahawks, 49ers (of which I just got most games from 81-94) and all other games from 1970-84. I'll never live long enough to do them all, but I'm pumping them out like gangbusters as it is.
@@davevolskysbackdoor5673 I understand that you can only do what you can do. Just thought I'd mention a few games. Sounds like you have your work cut out for you. I personally want you to know that I appreciate the work that you've done and are doing.
Hey no worries Jimmy, and thanks. I WISH I could do them all for sure :) I've literally been able to enhance about 8-10 games a week for a while now, but I'm sure I'll burn out at some point, or the NFL will step in and shut me down for a second time. I've been trying to do 1 or 2 Seahawk games a week. That Denver playoff game is in great shape, just dark, but I could totally remedy that.
from memory, this is the game Kenny Easley said hello.
New subscriber! Dolfan since the 82 AFC Championship Game. This is my era. The quality of your games is outstanding. Any chance that title game gets uploaded? Thanks for your work and page.
Thanks Blazer. Unfortunately that 82 Championship game gets blocked for viewing because of copyright if one attempts to upload it to CZcams.
@@davevolskysbackdoor5673
Booooo haha that sucks. I guess that’s why I can never find that game. Oh well. Great games on here tho 👏🏽
Yep, that would be why :) Thanks again.
Dave Krieg, Dan Marino, and Joe Montana had the best stats in the 1980's.
Alright, alright. I’m not watching another classic games from any other CZcamsr. I literally watched this game last night from another CZcamsr because it was all I could find for that particular game, and the quality was terrible. Could barely tell who was who on the field. Subscription added!
Enjoy your work.....any more games from the 1980 and1981 seasons coming our way? Thanks in advance.
I have over 70 more 80 and 81 games to possibly work on at some point. Lots of Seahawks stuff.
Oh My.....that is a lot of games....sounds like we are going to be entertained for a long time. Looking forward to them....@@davevolskysbackdoor5673
I hope so, but chances are the NFL will shut me down at some point. To be honest, I'm kinda surprised they haven't already.
I pray they leave you alone....you are doing a great service to us all.@@davevolskysbackdoor5673
I remember watching this live. it was considered to be a pretty big upset. Do u have the 1983 MNF season opener between Dallas/Wash? I appreciate all of these games. Would rather watch these old games than the modern NFL
Not at this time I don't.
Any chance you have 1980 Cowboys at Raiders?
I do have that one to possibly work on at some point.
Wow, back-to-back fumbles on kickoff returns by Miami after Seattle had grabbed the lead. Marino didn't even get a shot. Luckily ESPN was still in its infancy and sports-talk radio didn't yet exist because this would be talked about non-stop for weeks afterwards.
Turnovers in key games was a mainstay during the Marino and Shula era.
I remember watching this game as a 15 year old. Bummer that they lost to the Raiders the next week.
Wow. It's remarkable that Fulton Walker wasn't run out of town after fumbling back to back kickoffs at the end of that game. Did he have money on the Seahawks?? He played two more years after this. It's bad enough to do that anytime, but he did it in the worst possible circumstances. Is there even another time before or since that a player has lost a fumble on consecutive touches?! I'm certain it's never happened in the postseason. Walker kept Marino on the bench to prevent any hope for a late game winning or tying drive.
Ha, I just made a similar comment. Imagine if he'd done that today?
@steves9964 I think he would have been driven out from relentless fan and media assault. It's unbelievable to fumble back to back touches but to do it in THAT situation? Today he would be gone unless he was a hall of famer.
@@jmbuff1 No doubt. The question you originally posed on whether a player has lost multiple fumbles in the playoffs got me thinking.
Kyle Williams had two key fumbles on punt returns for San Francisco in the 2011 NFC Championship game against the Giants. You hate to see it but he was a young kid thrown into the fire because Ted Ginn was out in that game, and Ginn was of course a solid, reliable if not spectacular punt returner. It really turned the game as one set up the Giants' go ahead score midway thru the 4th quarter while the second set up the winning field goal in overtime. An indelible image of that game was San Francisco brutalizing Eli Manning so much so that at one point he called a timeout late with his helmet pulled halfway off of his head with pieces of sod hanging from it.
Anyway, not exactly the same thing as Walker because they occurred on punt returns and he did handle a couple of punts in between fumbles, but all the more devastating given it happened in a conference championship game and San Francisco seemed to be in control at that point.
Kenny Easley very smart dude
Nice fake typewriter sounds... those people are really working hard!
Are you going to post 1983 Lions at 49ers playoff game?
I was all prepared to work on that actual game the other day, but I did a test upload of it to CZcams and it gets blocked for viewing because of copyright, which is why no copy is currently posted by anyone.
@@davevolskysbackdoor5673 A shame...
Interested to hear why the commentators thought Chuck Studely would be a good replacement for Bill Arnsparger as Defensive coach; does anybody have a view as to why he (Chuck) was sought out, and why the defensive performance deteriorated so much from 1983-86? thanks
I love it when the "experts" are wrong. Miami by 20😂🤣😂
Was that the official line? 20? I remember it was a HUGE upset but couldn't find info on the line.
@@satorified16128.
1:04:40 wow nice
The Dolphins were HUGE favorites in this game, but I couldn't find info on what the line was.
According the football reference boxscore, Dolphins were favored by 8 points -- www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/198312310mia.htm

Ole orange 🍊bowl 👍🤙👌🤛👊🤜👏😊
Killer Bs defense! Miami defense had 6-8 starters with last name starting with a “B.” Blackwood brothers were hitters! Miami should have one a couple Super Bowls with Marino and this defense!
Any luck with 1976 Patriots @ Raiders playoff game
If I had it to post I already would have.
We all WISH! At the top of many fan's lists of game we would like to be able to see again..

Pete Axthelm's quality of work gradually declined due to alcohol abuse and he died of liver failure in 1991 at the age of 47. 🍸🍸🍸☠☠☠
I wish the hawks won the AFC championship game against the raiders they could of beaten the Eagles in that SB
Forgot how much turnovers impacted this game.
I'm not a fan of Seattle, but why would you get rid of these uniforms
Wish they kept the old ones.
You cannot turn it over 5 times and win a nfl playoff game.
I know the conditions are sloppy, but it’s notable how much improvement has occurred in the kicking game since then. Comparitavely, Von Schaumann is a pretty awful kicker
These are great, but I wish you would take your name off the screen. It's pretty annoying.
