Every football game that has ever been played has been VIOLENT. But some games are more violent than others.
TODAY, given everything we know about concussions, and chronic traumatic encephalopathy, or CTE, the NFL is doing everything it can to make the game LESS violent. Every year the league introduces new rules aimed at REDUCING the risk of serious injuries.
But things were very different 30 years ago.
Back then NOBODY cared about concussions, and teams actually HID injuries from players.
Back then guys told trainers to “TAPE UP” broken legs and AMPUTATE mangled fingers so they could get back in the game.
Back then, the more VIOLENCE you had in a football game, the better it was. And no game in the HISTORY of the National Football League featured more bone-crushing, ligament-popping, brain-rattling VIOLENCE than the EPIC showdown between the Los Angeles Raiders and Chicago Bears on November 4th, 1984.

Sup TPS... Im back!!! Follow me at my other channel "THE MAIN EVENTER" >>> bit.ly/Subscribe-to-TME
Welcome back man
I'm happy my raider were in it raidernation
Switched the video as soon as I seen this guy please please please don't bring him back please!!! He sux and yells when he's talking please get rid of him
Welcome
Um the body bag game
Should be titled “Violent games the NFL doesn’t want you to see, and I’m not gonna show you either, just going to yell at you about them”
That's right! I didn't click on this video to watch someone yak. Where are the video clips?
so right...so right
@Fock Lung czcams.com/video/IppjmbmDvXk/video.html
is what I wanted
@@willsutton54 good job bro
And my dumbass wasted 11:41 minutes hoping to see clips of the game 😂😂
I am sorry I clicked on this video. The most violent game ever talked about but never seen.
Good point, now that u mention it.
Yep
They played while pissing blood and today they miss 4 weeks with turf toe lmao
You say it like playing while pissing blood is a good thing. Definition of toxic masculinity right there, glorifying serious injuries as if looking after your health is a weak thing to do. I've played multiple sports at multiple levels for my whole ass life so I know the urge to want to put it all aside for your team when you get injured but it should never be made to look noble, it's just stupidity
@@SuperNuclearUnicorn LOL "toxic masculinity".... women don't fuck thirsty doormats.
@Reece Cantrell today people using words like "toxic masculinity" get horse laughed at.
Screw the phrase "toxic Masculinity" because all Its only a phrase used to try to shame men for being men. Now...with that being said...pissing blood don't make you a f**king man. Pissing blood means you're fu*kd up and it's common sense to discontinue whatever it is that's making you piss blood. Bleeding ain't a badge of honor, it's just fu*king bleeding.
Ronnie Lott, you cant play, your finger is broken. "Cut it off, I am going back in." Different times man.
“Every football game ever played has been violent.”
This man never seen the Pro Bowl.
DId you see Sean Taylor in the Pro Bowl lol
Especially back in the 70s.
Every football game except from like year 2000 and on except for the likes of John Lynch, Ray Lewis, or Bill Romanowski. When those players retired fierce football died
He’s talking how in that time, there were many rules to protect players like now , I remember there was a time when the player was still standing and there was motion of the ball either forward or back the whistle wasn’t blown, the player with ball had to actually be down. But this game in the history of the nfl games had the most injuries in one game and the most carreer ending injuries in the history of nfl
Who's going to risk a career ending injury on a meaningless game like the pro bowl? It's considered a "fun matchup" between the two conferences.
Dude reads his script like it was written in all caps.
Shaun it probably is
You big meanie...why can't you embrace and celebrate DeFuq's ability TO read? 🤣
annoying asf!!
Oh shit!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
THAT was FUNNY!!!!😂😂😂😂
You type like your shit don't stink.
McMahon: Coach Ditka. The doctor said I have a lacerated kidney. I literally pissed blood!
Coach Ditka: *glares*
McMahon: I'm ready to go back in now...
Coach Ditka: Atta boy.
That is where I lost some respect for coach Mike Ditka, too much of this rough, macho man bullshit when Jim McMahon was in no condition to go back onto that football field. Totally unacceptable.
@@robertpreskop4425 he played in even worse conditions, do you think he did not know how much it hurts? Nowadays everything that it's not acting like a whiny toddler is "macho bullshit"
Arturo Porraz Clearly he didn’t even know the extent of his own injuries. Nowadays players are at less of a risk of dying horrible deaths.
Robert Preskop yeah, it’s called being a puss
@@arturoporraz6046 So you and 8 morons equate not playing through an injury that could kill you to being a whiny toddler.
Dude, those mid-80's Bears' defenses were absolutely murderous. Danny White probably still has flashbacks of Richard Dent and Otis Wilson running at him from the Dallas-Chicago game in 1985.
Remember that gm and that was a absolute beat down and tough to watch being a Cowboys fan remember the score was 44-0
Interesting. Needs more ads and more shouting though.
We want a 15 second ad every 10 seconds!
😂😂😂
💀💀💀💀
I feel cheated. I was promised shouting and ads, and I barely got either
I thought I was tripping he is yelling loud as hell
listening to this guy for 5 minutes was violent enough. to the highlights already
LoL 😀😀👍
Hold on, he has to count on his fingers a few more times.
💯👍😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
ikr
damn why he shoutin ?!?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Dude.... why you mad at me? I just came here for some video clips and you've been yelling at me the entire time.
Bobby Scarfo, be careful what you ask. He will start counting on his fingers the reasons that he is mad at you.

I was 23 years old and on leave from the service when my brother and myself went to Soldier Field to watch this game back in '84. And OMG WHAT A GAME! The Raiders were the cheap shot kings of the NFL and my team, *The Chicago 🐻 Bears* had been Defensive masters, just never Offensive winners. Bears Defenses were always great, especially back when #51 Dick Butkus played. The Bears of the mid to late '80's were American cultural and NFL Legends in their own time. American football today isn't the same game it was when I played it as a kid; it's safer, but so damn boring now!
I was a college student in Chicago in 1984 and watched this game in stunned silence at the brutality on the field. This was a pivotal moment for Ditka's Bears.
Dick Butkis would've stood out in that game. Not to take anything away from the great Mike Singletary.
@@LesterMoore , Dick Butkus would have stood nowhere but on the Bears sideline during this game if he could endure standing at all, on wrecked 40-year-old knees. Everything was as it should have been in the NFL this fateful day.
@@shannonrhett3304 I was referring to a Dick Butkus in his prime.
@@LesterMoore , I'm sure, but I'm not into hypothetical games. I like the real stuff.
So did I. The great Ray Guy ended up playing QB by the end of the game
*QB sacked* *Breaks leg with bone sticking out of leg*
Announcer - “Oh my god that’s a serious case of whiplash”
🙊
Was that the Joe Thiesman injury?
🤣🤣
@@skinner321 yep. Back when LT was extremely vicious himself. Talked about delivering kill shots to quarterbacks
I feel like I just got yelled at for 12 minutes
The book, “You’re ok, it’s only a bruise” goes into a lot of detail about this game. Written by the Raiders team doctor at the time.
Big Bears fan here - going back to '78. Thanks for the memories! Get yourself a spot on a local television sports newscast. I love your enthusiasm!
I thought by the title that it was a KTO video.
But no.
Zach Thompson me too 😭😭😭😭😭😭😂
Yeah
Yes lol
Me to... KTO is wayyyy better than TPS
For real
Would have been nice to actually see more of these plays instead of you just talking about them....
Yeah really!
yeah really shut up and play the video
Ha yea
Yes and why all the yelling? Just talk normally dude! I dont get it👎
EXACTLY- “Folks this was a really brutal game, but I know you’re far more interested in seeing me yell about it than viewing the actual footage!”
I remember this game. This was back in when the Raiders were the "Raiders" and Chicago was destroying everyone.
Everybody went to the hospital in that ball game. It was a prize fight between the two toughest teams in the game. Social justice warriors and snowflakes who work for the NFL today would Banish and fine all the tough players in this game.
I’m 79 years old and back in my day Richard Dent was a BEAST!
Yeah people forget about Dent, which is terrifying... that roster was stacked sure but Dent.... is Dent 😂
Dude! You need to talk (shout) less, and show more highlights.
totally over the top>>>
I remember that game. Walter Payton had to be QB for Chicago because there wasn't anyone else left.
I was to young to remember that game but my dad told how walter Payton played quarterback in 84
Heard about this game from Coach Flores and Ted Hendricks while I drove them in my limo from a Golf event.......epic!!!
@@justinstinocher9765 That was a game against the Packers.
Walter did not play QB in this game..that was against the Packers.
The Raiders had to bring Ray Guy, their punter, into the game when the Bears knocked the first two QBs out. I was watching that game and it was brutal
“I know the title seems like I’m gonna show you some good footage, but I’m just gonna shout like my audience is a mile away.” 🤦♂️
That's why I never watch his videos
But...enthusiasm.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
A contest between the OAKLAND RAIDERS and the Pittsburgh Steelers back in the 70s, I believe resulted in both teams going to court. Both teams had charged the other with assault.
They didn't have 2 point conversion then.smh.
Vontaze Burfect would have been a super star in that Era.
cove81 nah romsnowski would of killed him
@@johnherrera5261 Bill is 1 of my favorite players of all time. Even though I'm Dallas fan & I obviously hate SF/PHILLY. I hate Denver too🤷🏿♂️ just because
Actually, Burfict would've probably won the Walter Payton NFL Man Of The Year Award back then.🤗 Old-school bad mofo's were cRaZiEr than me.😎.....
...well maybe not THAT crazy🤷🏼♂️
@@johnherrera5261 that would've been better than mayweather vs McGregor
aaron hernandez woulda been killing people
I was at this game with my father in law. The Bears crushed their top 3 QBs and all were seriously injured. The Raiders began warming up punter Ray Guy to come in before one of the other injured QBs agreed or was told he had to come back in. The score did not tell the story of how badly the Bears beat them that day.
"Apparently, Olsen just thought everything was whiplash!" (listen at 9:15)
HAHAHAHA! Awesome!
Yap yap yap yap, you must really love hearing yourself talk because after 1 minute people shut you off
Richard Dent has basically been forgotten about, dude was a beast for real
EXACTLY
He was
Indeed! Richard Dent was a beast!
My dad is a mechanic and he worked on richard dent's car and btw my dads ranked master tech in mechanics
And he met richard but my dad said he was an asshole lmao
Walking Roid Rage Lyle Alzado from the Raiders said, "they played like us" after the game. Which I would say is quite a compliment.
You need to read up on Hardy Brown. An orphan from the Dust Bowl, Great Depression era Oklahoma, played for the 49ers (if memory serves) and in one game knocked out the entire starting backfield of the opposing team. He had a technique where he used his height and his shoulder so that he would pop people under the chin so hard that they would be knocked out.
Crazy😮
The next year during their Superbowl run, the Bears knocked out both quarterbacks for the Lions. But in terms of violence, the "bodybag" game might be worse than this one. If you want true unsafe football, look at the games before the NFL was formed and people were literally dying and being crippled. It go so bad, that Teddy Roosevelt had to step in
True enough, but they weren't using ANY padding then.
Last I heard of Jim McMahon, he has been suffering the effects of CTE.
I was at this game. Remember seeing Ray Guy warming up, throwing passes, on the sidelines.
I remember this game. It got a lot of hype especially around the Chicagoland area as potentially the Superbowl matchup to come that year. However, the Raider's offensive production was suffering even prior to the game and people were thinking they would need drastic improvement if they were to make the playoffs. Soldier field had the notorious astroturf that almost guaranteed a lower leg injury for some player at every game. The game was staged to be more of a backroom brawl and that's what happened. The real problem for the Raiders came later with an injury to Marcus Allen against the Giants which the team never recovered from.
this one?
Most violent game the NFL wants you to forget
czcams.com/video/vdFDPUOHp4I/video.html
Man you left out Lyle Alzado
(Sorry if it’s spelt wrong)
And geno Atkins
Hey did smh
I was bout to say am I the only one that noticed that
I thought he was the reason every one was hurt. His men included.
Yep. And I’m pretty sure that the quote about beating a Bears player up in front of his family was actually said by Alzado, not Long
Concrete turf was the main culprit of the game's carnage, the hell with "whiplash".
I miss real turf, mud, and outdoor games regardless of the weather, that was how the game was meant to be played. Indoor climate controlled games played on a thin strip of indoor/outdoor carpet on top of concrete? That should be banned by the players union.
Q. Why did the No Fun League decide to force the players to play on such a terrible surface?
A. $$$,$$$,$$$,$$$$.
A turf is a LOT softer than is was years ago, even outdoor turf. It used to be exactly how they say, especially in the cold cold. Hard as a rock! And the equipment wasn't as protective as it is today either. Good change I think.
@@clarkclark9832 I agree except the game became sanitized when the suits moved it indoors, football was meant to be played outdoors in whatever the weather dictated.
In the future (at the rate of owner greed) the regular season will probably evolve into 20 games (plus the playoffs) becoming an injury-riddled marathon climaxing with the SB in May or June. Rosters will substantially be increased to keep fresh bodies on the playing fields.
The NFL season should start September 1st and finish with the SB on New Years Day.
@@marvinthiessen3454 nah, football will start being played as flag football, then down grade to two hand touch. No more injuries or hard hits. 😁
New turf is the reason knees get blown out in todays game
@@marvinthiessen3454 that would be competition with college football. Also it could happen on weekdays which wouldn't be good
*Steelers vs Browns* : well that’s changes today 🤦♂️
It didnt lol. This was way worse.
5:20 A two-point conversion? The NFL did not have two-point conversions until 1994!! Do your homework Mr. Young.
I have to laugh when we are told that Tom Brady, or Peyton Manning, or some other QB from this era is the greatest ever. Had Brady played in the 60s or 70s, he'd been done by age 28. Brady can't handle being hit and if you notice, most teams that beat NE do so by causing Brady fear, even though QB sacks today are more like a soft hug and drop.
I've seen many games in the 70s where players shouldn't have come back in games. I've see QB's and WR's get clothes-lined and it was so routine, no flags were every thrown. If you were a slot receiver, you took your life in your hands. Going across the middle, you just know your going to take a vicious hit if you are anywhere near the ball.
Today, if you even look at a QB wrong, you get a penalty and the DB's may as well not even be on the field with all the rules that favor WR's.
Today's NFL is a shell of what it once was. There was a time when defenses weren't handcuffed and didn't have to stop mid play to decide if the hit they are going to inflict is within the rules. The QB's who played back then were tough as nails and put up their stats under extreme pressure and in many cases extreme pain.
Yep
Shouldn't be glorified though
Oakland's Jack Tatum comes to mind.
I think Russell Wilson is pretty tough. He played one season through two different injuries.
@@chipsimon9607 I'll glorify it. Tom Lady would have cried off the field if he was playing back then. Back then that was real football compared to the shit that's played now. Will you be happy when the sport becomes flag football? I know I won't. Let men be men. Believe it or not the players loved the violence of the sport back then.
Howie Long used to look so badass, now he looks like a business man
Jacob Joseph 😂😂😂😂
So ur saying business men don't look badass?
😂😂😂😂
Maybe it's because he used to be a badass, and now he's a businessman? ;)
Badass Businessman !!
Dude mentions the '85 Bears, then just has to mention the 15-1 season. Here I am 37 years later and still pissed at the Dolphins...
I would love to see Joe Montana play in today's rules. Remember, he won 4 championships in that era...
I thought there was gonna be game highlights. How disappointing... just some guy rambling on.
yeah what up with that come on.....highlights not still shots boooooring
There were a few. Wilson and Humm getting sacked.
Yeah Right
😍😍😍 Love this vid. Getting into the details of little-known games is excellent content.
Speaking of aggresive players, he forgot to mention the Raiders' Lyle Alzado.
'Three Mile Lyle' was 100% rage on legs fueled by roids and haunted by a dark past.
@@robertdore9592 Alzado's father was very abusive towards him and his family members this was said by LA in a interview during his playing days along with one of his sisters.Alzado's father was a alcoholic.
The Raiders had the absolute best 2 corners in NFL history. Please reply and tell me your 2 best.

If this game was played today players would be going to trial for attempted murder and conspiracy
The Raiders were timid in 84 compared to the days of John Matuzsak. George Atkinson, Jack Tatum and Ted Hendricks.
You must have never seen the RAIDERS vs Chiefs games in the 70s
What about the browns game where they called the game because fans were hitting people with bottles.
In memory of Bottle Gate
The violence in this case is limited to game itself. The Browns game itself was just a regular game in terms of level of violence.
Go search KTO
KTO covered that game. he has a video up about that
That was fan violence directed against the obvious jobbing the refs were doing on the Browns.
I remember watching this game. It was as brutal as described in this video, if not more so. It was a war of attrition. I remember a Bear knocking Raider's QB David Humm's teeth out when he tackled him with his helmet hitting his jaw. Both teams came out of this game badly damaged. After the Bears beat the crap out of the Raider's players in the first half, the Raiders came back for revenge in the second half. And they just about killed Bear's QB Jim McMahon. Yeah, it was by far the most brutal game I ever watched.
I think that's the game that McMahon suffered the lacerated kidney in. Yeh, they almost killed him and could have pretty easily.
61dodgelancer idk. Buddy had a few games like that.
Look up Body Bag game. Eagles vs Skins and the You bring the house we'll bring the pain game. Philly vs Houston Oilers.
Stretchers needed !!!
But this game was the beginning of Buddy Ball !
@@indy_go_blue6048 Yes. You're right. My God. A lacerated kidney.

Ronnie Lott never asked to have his finger amputated to re-enter a game. That’s an urban legend. He hurt the finger late in the season. He was given the option in the off-season to have surgery, which would’ve caused him to miss the preseason and possibly a few regular season games, or simply sever the top of his finger and miss no significant time. He opted to lose the top of his pinky and then went on to lead the NFL in interceptions the following season.
In an 11:40 video, the first play shown came at the 6:10 mark.
Do not waste your time watching this video.
bro you slayed it...just listening to the lineup rundowns you had me thinking about how great it was to be a kid and watch those teams...
This is a certified hood classic
Wow! I was actually at this game! I never knew it was so historic. One of my most vivid memories of being there was, before the game started and they were introducing the players, when they got to Walter Payton, there was a roar from that crowd, the likes of which I've never heard before, or since. Walter was the friggin' MAN!!
Top 10 Best games in nfl history (not only superbowls)
Including Preseason games please
Lautaro Zingoni I’m bias since I’m an Eagles fan but I think SB52 will be on it cause it had a great ending (bias) had a qb catch a td, a backup best Brady, and all the records it broke with like most yards in any game, most passing yards in the SB etc
They got it wrong. The most violent NFL game ever played was in the Astrodome on 10/09/1977 when the Steelers came in to play the Oilers. I was in the stands. The hitting in that football game was ultra-violent almost to the point of being obscene. Man, was I proud! The stretcher was on the field all afternoon as both teams registered hospital hits, but the Oilers outdid the men in black this fine afternoon. All told the Steelers fumbled five times as the Oilers forced nine turnovers and won 27-10. The Steelers were sent home with no QB's, as Bradshaw and Kruzcek both left with head injuries. I looked up at one point and #21 Tony Dungy was in at QB. He threw two of their six intercepts as he was running for his life. Super special day to be an Oiler fan!
That defense was an absolute clone of the 1977 Atlanta Falcons "Grits Blitz", statistically the BEST defense in NFL history. Y'all need pay my Birds some homage.
that IS the best defense of all-time (coming from a bears fan), but the one reason your dirty birds 77 grits blitz isnt more well known is because their offense was probably the worst offense of all-time (coming from a bears fan 😞)
I thought you were going to replay a 1970's era Pittsburgh Steelers-Oakland Raiders game.
Those games was nasty.
Football is supposed be and used to be a violent game. This is the reason why coaches used to use running backs to block blitzing linebackers in pass plays, before the idiot owners decided to destroy the game in order to attract otherwise non football fans. By opening up the rules of contact between a DB and receiver, by allowing quarterbacks to intentionally ground the football to either stop the clock or to avoid a sack, and to penalize defensive players for hitting a QB or WR too hard, they have pussified the NFL. The league sucks, did not make the non football fans become fanatics, but instead have alienated the true fans that have been leaving the NFL in droves to pursue newfound passions.
Fantasy Football and Casual Fans allowed for the TV $ for a lot of bad match-ups to be profitable. Giants-49ERS being a Monday Night Game is clear proof of that. In 1984 that game would have been blacked out, unless Owners bought and gave seats to charities. Can't have much of a Fantasy league if the NFL didn't become a passing league. Owners don't want to be on the hook for CTE related disasters like how LB#55 J. Seau ended in SD. CBA ending 2020/NFL Lockout 2021 isn't that far away.
Agree 1000%. I haven't watched a live game since Peyton's last SB and probably will never watch another one. BUT I'm marathoning the hell of the old classics here on YT.

Yes this was an excellent and brutal game! I've been a Raiders fan since conception and was this game was the first time I swore in front of my parents. This is when football was football for real maniacal athletic men! R.I.P. Lyle Alzado. Ol Bug Eye Singletary was a beast though. I miss this football!
5:19 FYI - The NFL didn't adopt the 2 point conversion until '94.
Dude talks to loud couldn't finish watching it.
You don’t need to finish
Bro there’s a button on your phone that adjust the volume
You don't have a volume control on your device?
Turn down the volume and pay attention to him counting on his fingers. An important part of the presentation.
All the Raiders needed that day was a FG, a TD, and the NFL to adopt the 2 point conversion by 2pm of that Sunday in 1984.

@@terrybalfour3284 The level of play and talent level league wide was high in the 80's and 90's. The Walsh, Montana Niners rolling over into the Steve Young Niners. Physical Bears teams loaded with crazy personalities. It was like an actually good soap opera. LT Giants. The Bills going to 4 straight Superbowls, and losing them all. Loaded Cowboys teams on both sides of the football. Maybe the best all around team/dynasty I ever saw. Wasn't alive to see the 70's Steelers or prior. Interesting teams that could generate offense but would give up points too, like the Phins and Oilers, with QB's with amazing skill sets in Marino and Moon that just had smooth deliveries and were pretty to watch when they were on their game. RB's like Bo Jackson, Christian Okoye, Barry Sanders that were exciting to watch, not just good. The game as a whole was back then.
I understand why the rule changes were necessary of course. But for purely selfish reasons I think the game was FAR more fun to watch in this era than any other. Physical play but also the advent of modern offensive football taking over, with minds like Walsh and Glanville. And players with more diverse and interesting skill sets like I mentioned above, that were just flat out exciting to watch.
@@terrybalfour3284 dislike Trump all you want, but there is no way the USFL came anywhere close to taking over the NFL. Hell, the LA franchise moved out of the Coliseum into a Junior College field because the lack of fans was so embarrassing.
@@jca4la bullshit you r referring to LA and boston attendance...ya know LA the city that didnt even have an NFL franchise for how long? Up until Trumps dipshit move, look it up..denver, tampa ( where i was) , new jersey averaged 40k+ a game even Jacksonville...dont act like la is the end all be all of success. Do real research...also nfl was shit quality 80-85.. Herchel Walker and Reggie white were just a few stars..Donnie a dipshit kid
The state of Utah was well-represented in this game (Jim McMahon and Marc Wilson - BYU, and Merlin Olsen - Utah State).
Todd Christensen also BYU.
The two point conversion wasn’t adopted into the nfl until 1994. So being 11 points was pretty much a two touchdown lead.
This game was the game of the week and was shown on tv. I was in college and had seen a lot of football up to that point in the 70s until the early 80s...and this game is still the most brutal I've seen almost 40 years later. The Bears were brutal
It's Gary Fence-ick and Bill Pih-KELL not Gary Fennick and Bill Pie-KELL
Thought I was going to see a lot of injuries in football not a dude yelling at us about it this was a bad video
All I needed to hear was the words was "Los Angeles Raiders" and I knew how this story was gonna go.....
Do you know that in the nfls early days men actually played and died on the feild. I think it was Roosevelt as president had to step in because of the deaths.
Dan, that was college football that president T. Roosevelt worked to change. Years before the NFL existed.
This would've been better had you actually shown the VIDEOS of the plays you were describing. Too much talk not enough action, much like the NFL today. no sub.
Sadly this channel is an 'all about me channel'.
I dont normally like or dislike videos but youre the only TPS guy i like sine cantaloupe left
Lyle Alzado was out mid season in '84 on injury.
So, he missed out on all the drama queenery.
Side note; Alzado was an amateur boxer and, in 1979, fought an exhibition match against Muhammad Ali.
Kinda wish Qwan didn't came back. Homeboy straight up yelling at us
You won't see this much talent in a game ever again because of the salary cap.
you make it sound like the salary cap is a bad thing.
dickfagina it kinda is bruh every game in the nfl sucks lmao
Be that as it may, it would suck worse without the salary cap. The whole point of the salary cap is to help spread the talent throughout the league. that is why you see less "dynasty" teams than you did back in the 70s/80s. I don't know about you, but I would rather watch a league where the talent is at least somewhat spread out instead of a league where you have a few dynasty with all the talent and a bunch of other teams filled with second-rates.
dickfagina "less dynasty teams" we just gonna act like the last 6+ years haven't been who gets to play the Patriots in the Superbowl
@@johnherrera5261 and look at how much the Patriots rosters have changed over that period compared to those other teams. They probaly have the most turnaround any given year of non rebuilding teams. Also the AFC has historically been weak. It wasn't until the late 90s that it started getting competitive to the point where they could put up good competition that could at least keep it respectful in the superbowl (some time after the Bills 4th straight blowout loss in the superbowl). The AFC has only sent 6 teams to the superbowl this century which includes the Patriots, Ravens, Steelers, Colts (with Peyton Manning), Broncos (with Peyton Manning), and the Raiders (2001 only). That's 5 teams that have been there multiple times with 1 year with a different team. The NFC has sent 12 teams in the mean time which includes only 2 teams that could be considered close to dynasties which is the Giants under Eli Manning or the Seahawks who went there in 2013 and 2014 and under a previous regime in 2005. Those 2 teams made it there a combined 6 times as well both under 2 regime's combined with significant gaps.
You lost me when you mispronounced "Fencik" by calling him "Fenik"
Even if you're not a bears fan you had to laugh at that one
😂
Still a cool video despite the errors.
I remember watching this game. It was wicked. The way football used to be played was even more vicious than this before the '78 rule change because of CB Mel Blount.
