THIS IS A GREAT FANTASTIC TEL RA PRODUCTION ! IT WAS TEL RA'S WEEKLY "A.F.L. HIGHLIGHTS" OF THE 1967 SEASON THAT MADE ME A HUGE FOOTBALL FAN ! I LOVED THE MUSIC AND ONE OF MY FAVORITE ALL TIME SONGS IS USED IN THIS FILM !! (OPENING DAY JETS GAME). THANK YOU Andy Provin FOR POSTING THIS GREAT FILM !!!! THANK YOU YOU/TUBE !!!!
Sestak & Maguire ran a restaurant together, back when players had to work during the off season. The restaurant was open year round. I wonder how many fewer pages the rule book had in it back in ‘67 compared to today?
Don't be misled by the "Tel-Ra Productions'' label...they had already been bought out by NFL Films. Also, 1967 was the last year for the colorful AFL officials' uniforms.
At 10:08-10:16, look at Buffalo's #62 (name unknown) wipe out Boston's Nick Buoniconti...Nick's only shortcoming was his short stature and relative light weight. He was still very good for the Pats, but it wasn't until he went to Miami, bulked up, and was put in a modified KC "Stack" defense, where o-linemen couldn't get at him without first taking on a d-lineman, then he flourished into an All-Pro.
John Niland nailed him in Super Bowl VI. Dallas Cowboys three headed running monster of Garrison, Thomas, and Hill with misdirection as well as the running of Roger Staubach.
There were videos for all teams regardless of how many wins. Before NFL Films took over in 1968, many of the efforts from AFL teams were awful, but this one was outstanding.
