Makes you miss REAL football.
the first time i felt that way was around the mid-70's... when pads got bigger, face-masks were mandatory except for kickers AND when head-hunting became a kind of rule of the turf. Darryl Stingley paid the biggest price. (but we don't know the trickle-down effect to HS play across the country).. and then, ol' Buddy Ryan and that guy in New Orleans start putting out bounties on players... somebody once cut LT at the ankles and that was a quick mistake.
@@flyingtoaster1427 Everything after Pete Rozelle has been a disaster.
@@redstate502 maybe so -- he coincides with the incredible decline in almost every major city .. except Green Bay, where they own their team.
@@flyingtoaster1427 i mean and cte ffs

That was real football and that's why we played it that way up in to the 90s. Today is literally 1 step away from flag football.
Great Video, Great Defensive Teams! I'm an old man now! But watching those Defenses hit their opponents made my heart soar! & a tear to my eye because those Football Defensive Teams won't be seen again! Not in my life time! Football is now entertainment for the TV QB's & the bar bullies! 3 hours of commercials! where between commercials sometimes a football game breaks out? TV talking heads tell you what you're seeing and the refs actually call out the penalties! Instead of when only ex players knew from the officials hand signals what the penalties were! Like a secret decoder ring! That could only be unlocked by Ex Peewee to the Pro Players! It was our game! Now it's everyone's? whether you suited up and strapped it on or not? I still love Football! And can remember when ALL coaches wore shirts, ties, sport jackets and fedoras! And head coaches would meet at mid field during warm ups shake and greet one another before the Battle! Often wondered what they really talked about? Like when Coach Halas & Coach Lombardi smiled and spoke to one another? Love watching these older Football Videos! For me? It recharges the Brain Housing Group! For the Youngins? It should be a view into the past when Football was Great and played in an Hour! Unless a bunch of penalties! Then hour & a half! CMTFU TMI!
Miss those days
You prob were not reading Carlos Castaneda or E.L Doctorow or especially dear John Gardner, the American writer. They'd still be with you.
Most of the quarterbacks and others would have never had the records they hold today if they played back in those times.
those were football men, not the boys ya see now
That includes Tom Brady. Tom Brady would have not played as long as he did if he played in the 1970s and 1980’s.
I always say that, and people get very mad at me
Imagine BEFORE those time! Of course, there was never any football played before there was a "Super Bow!"
I remember watching Kenny Anderson lead our beloved Bengals into battle with my pops in the 70’s. Simpler times. Better times. RIP Pops. Always missing you, but it does seem to tug more around the beginning of the football season 🥲
THANKS MEAN JOE.
I grew up in a great time.
def we don't have anything near a same thought of "up in a great time."
Me too bud.
Mike Ditka, Mike Curtis, Jack Youngblood , Jack Lambert, Lyle Alzado were some of the best and hardest hitters in the NFL.
You can Add Dick Butkis Bill George Sam Huff Ray Nitchkee Tommy Nobis To that List!
Who can forget Mike Curtis' fan knockdown?
I saw these defenses play.
They are legends and heroes to us.
I put Jack Lambert just behind Butkus.
What a great compliment from a def. cord.
NFL sure has changed alot.
LOVE these NFL FILMS...had em all on VHS.....and being a Steelers fan...and hating the Raiders....
CTE hits! Brain damage! LOVE how these guys crippled each other!
Now this. This is real football.
This is what football is about. Not like this close to becoming flag football today!
John Madden: “What are you gonna do about it?”
God bless them all
Real football players real men then not like today
CTE ad. Look at the these guys’ lives post football. I played through colllege. “The thrills are temporary, the damage lasts forever.” - me
THE N.F.L. SHOULD BE NAMED THE T.F.L./ TOUCH FOOTBALL LEAGUE.. 🏈🏉
Those were the days
When guys were dying from cte... Ah.. the good old days
@Macarena22279 it for our entertainment they know what they are doing
@@chrisjlong70 carted off the field as you sit in your lazy boy
@Macarena22279 Uh, who died from CTE during the 60's/70's?
@@keithclark7266 look it up!... Why ask me,lazy bum
I was a Steelers fan bigtime. But, the '85 Bears were scary. Buddy Ryan did that. Mike knew it. Sad they couldn't have gotten along better.
it's ok.... the best team prevailed in '86.
Much respect for all those teams that played in this area some teams
Chuck foreman and incredible running back
I'm an old NFL fan. 60 years. I appreciate seeing football change over the years. Sometimes the ideas are good, sometimes bad, and sometimes really don't make a difference
Like this video shows, it used to be a bar fight. Now the game is more finesse. Player safety is now more of a priority.
The players are elite athletes now and science/math is an intricate part of the game like never before.
Still, it is an art. And as is all art, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Go Ravens!!!
Soft🇺🇸
@@iwinzeazy I'm sure your belly is. 🙂
@@ravenken No softness here lol 🇺🇸
@@ravenken Patrick Mahomes has demonstrated the Ravens' softness.....a few times. World Champion Chiefs!
@@iwinzeazyyou seem like you may have played... Sans helmet
They would all be arrested in todays touch football league 🇺🇸

You likely played without a helmet?.... Oh ..you just sit on the couch and whine
@@Pokesalad222 I did and your mother was one of the cheerleaders 🇺🇸
@@iwinzeazywhaaaaaa !😭😭😭😭😭😭😭..poor Sally Ann!...it certainly explains the brain damage you have
@@Pokesalad222 I'm glad you understand because you and I both have the same symptoms 🇺🇸
When football was a full contact sport
QBs had to be tough then. I was so stoked when the Raiders came to LA. One thing I'd have changed tho: Commitment to Intimidation- their excellence. Speaking of Joe Green, check him (and other 70s NFL greats) in The Black Six..a moto-movie
Most people dont remember Chris Berman put out a video called "MVP...Most Viscious Pops" in the early 80's..i loved it...but i also understand why the current NFL is trying to reduce lifelong injuries to players..its all about the lawsuits..but if we want a true gladiator sport like it used to be, we hafta accept the ramifications of it too.
Lester Hayes should be in the H of F
Lester the Molester!😆
Hayes and haynes
Stick um.
@@EricHanhauser Lester Hayes was an all-time great
Yes sir. 53 yr old Eagles fan here. Just remember the 80 SB when the Raiders handed us our ass. Lester Hayes had Stickum on his gloves. Shit it was smeared on his helmet. Came in a can. Stickum should have a display in the HOF as a WTF.
In that time you had to be a man that was ready to do whatever it takes and hard enough to take it and never let them know it hurt
Thankfully this documentary does include actual tough teams, and omits the pretender Cowboys, who folded up like a napkin if they didn't unquestionably have the upper hand. It is interesting that the fawning over the Raiders and Jack Tatum doesn't mention Darryl Stingley. Stingley in a wheelchair is the real story of the 1970s NFL, but it is rarely mentioned - too frightening for the PR machine. Besides - the guys that returned from WWII and played in the 1950s were the actual tough guys. Those men had very different ideas about the words 'safe' and 'dangerous.'
The cowgirls suck....
Yes I'm from Texas. Fkn losers...
When tickets weren't 5 or 10 grand for a super bowl
This was when it took a real man to play and be able to walk off the field.
There is a post on youtube of an interview with William Fritz Afflis better known as former pro wrestling great Dick The Bruiser ,telling about his time with the Greenbay Packers in the 1950's,there were no face masks on the helmets then and Bruiser talked about getting his nose broken,teeth knocked out,but it wasn't that big a deal to him,but other players would be moaning and crying about having the same injuries,and Dick said he'd look at them and think,what's wrong with them? Guess they don't handle pain very well,but Bruiser was tough as they come,he could take it lol.
Lester Hayes... hardest hitter ever.
ahh so crushing!!
Anybody remember the fearsome foursome?
Yes is do.. Merlin Olsen and Deacon Jones... Folded when they played the Vikes in zero degree weather.. Deacon Jones said and I quote " I new we lost when we stepped off the bus." 😂😂
When the Raiders were from Oakland.
Back when the NFL was a man's game played by real men not like the Divas, Grifters and Glory Hogs in today's NFL.
how do you suppose that happened?
The 2000 Ravens belong on this list. I realize this was made before that so. Good list. Fun watch.
I'm a Viking fan and the 2000 Raven's were favorite other "Purple" squad.
Willie Brown didn't play defensive back. He played I'll figure out how to get the ball.😮😅
Marshal should be in the H of F
Players of today would not last in these tough hard nose defense of yesterday
Chuck Bednarik...Giants. 18 sacks...in 1 game. ( Before sacks were a stat).
Derrick Thomas has the record of 7 sacks in a game...
How in the hell did Bednarick get 18 freeking sacks.?? 😵💫
Concrete Charlie Was as Tough as they Come. Chuck was a Tail Gunner on a B17 in World War Two!
The only 2 changes in the rules I’d keep from all the years ago? Would be the elimination clothe line tackles and head shots in the hitting department.North American football-in both the U.S. and Canada- was much more an “ at your own risk “ type of game in those times. It’s truly much less so now unfortunately. And commercial breaks after change of possessions are so beyond annoying………
born in pittsburgh, watching the games and seeing the players standing for our anthem makes me proud , today they are just over paid idiots who could never match the old days
Refs would blow the whistle if a defensive player got within 5 feet of girly QBs like Brady!
Imagine Mike Curtis, Ray Nitschke, or Butkis twisting his helmet off?? 🤭
Today they employ the Tom Brady Rule ... immediately blowing whistle when defender is 20 ft from QB! Imagine Brady getting hit by real men like Butkis, Nitschke, Deacon Jones, Karras .... you can almost hear Brady's whining!!
Somebody lose the tape on Butkus? He was Defensive player on a team that only won a couple games. He destroyed anybody in his path. Friend or foe.
When A Holes that never played Pop Warner or did nutcrackers in the August heat call the shots..
We were screwed
WHAT'S WITH THE AUDIO!?!? 👂🦻🎧🎛🔊
Jack Tatum was dirty and these film clips show it. He targeted his opponents with head shots most of which were to the chins with his helmet
So
Let’s go raiders
Totally within the rules back then.
It's why the saying goes the WR didn't " run across the middle" back then.
Must be a broncos fan.
Yesterday’s NFL wasn’t for soft feminine “dudes”
This is football I remember. Hard nosed defenses. Men with huge pride in shutting down opposing offenses.
With a crap ton of CTE
And those guys of yesteryear all have head trauma. How is that a positive result?
I hated those guys!😂 They were awesome!
… but in today’s league they won’t be drooling in cups by the age of 50
Jack was the best there ever was the end
Lambert? Tatum? I'll guess you mean Lambert and he was great - always love the clip of him pushing Cliff Harris around. Chuck Bednarik was probably even tougher. There used to be several truly great middle linebackers - Ray Nitschke, Willie Lanier, and of course, the incomparable Dick Butkus. You could build a defense around any of them.
Before quarterbacks wore skirts
But then, the players are bigger and stronger than they have ever been and would roll over these tiny old people.
Back when real men played flag football in the Pro Bowl 😂
So how in the hell only mean joe is the only lineman in the hof??? When their is other teams have 2 in the hof??? It's a shame!!!
More than half of the Steelers Defense is in the HOF . 11 Starters on both Offense & Defense from the 1976 team. They were SOOO GOOD!
why don't these players and EVERY player receive residuals for this and other NFL money grabs???
Aim for the knees.
Nffl national foag football league for the late 20s
There is too much money involved,they might get hurt playing that way
Targeting!! 😮
I've been a Steelers fan since 71' the defenses portrayed were the most feared and most physical !
The current NFL created by God- Dell is a horrible product!
60 million to a pansy throwing a ball sad so sad.
No, they can't hit like that anymore. Too many penalties now days
Jack lambert he would kick your ass period my brothers favorite team and of course the dark Vaders of the nfl they don’t play like this and will never again my boys hey Lester not in the hall of fame bs my favorite coach jack made see stars
Everyone on the field, including the referees, would be locked up for attempted murder in today's style of football. Cut from a different cloth? More like came from a different planet. Damn how I miss Madden !!
Richmond-Burtman it ain't!!
No more dirty hits is all, boys!
The Steelers regurly kicked their a##. Who wrote this...Madden?
Jack tatum
They don't hit like that anymore, because the NFL has been neutered 😂
God, that music is so horrible!
The bottom line is none of these punks brought the San Diego Chargers a championship so gives a fuck !!!
Now they seem to be playing a game of patty-cake, the only players who hit the ground are the ball carrier and the tackler softly hit the ground, woke politics and sissy rules have ruined the game. I don't even watch the super bowl, I was a die-hard fan being born in 1954, I believe the NFL no longer exists, and modern fans are missing out on the real game.
Music 1'40 who is playing eerie Raiders forever
Lotta roids then. League wide.
The nfl today needs lyle Alzado! Tho he’d get ejected in the first 5 minutes with the new wuss rules.
Real men tough best
All dead
Real football. Not the powderpuff game it is now. Not long it will be a penalty to scare a quarterback...
I used to watch every sunday and Monday. Not anymore. Powerpuff football.
Today’s NFL is all powder puff flag football with flags if it gets too rough. 🧁
Zonka kick, rocky and Harris, gale , Alstot , Hudson, give me a break these idiots today couldn’t carry there jocks..that includes ray the con Lewis
