I’m from Boston and I can tell you. He was so respected in these parts. I remember the Boston Globe running a story about Shula being a “sly Fox” when the Dolphins were in town. My Mom loved him because he was handsome. She made me a Dolphins fan. I was too young to remember the SB years but I did see Csonca and greise play. I was born in 69. Football was big in my house!
Wow. Another early 80s Colts came! Love it. Those '81 Colts were truly one of the worst defenses in NFL history. Gave up, I believe, something like 535 points in a 16 game season. I think this is still an NFL record for defensive ineptitude, which is "impressive" considering that the modern NFL is designed to produce offensive shootouts. As awful as the Colts of this era were, they were my team and I love seeing their games, especially ones from old Memorial Stadium.
It is amazing Miami got to a Super Bowl with Woodley. He had the arm strength and was pretty mobile and could use his legs, but as a pure passer...not overly accurate and mistake/int prone
Woodley was an average starting qb in 1982, not great but not the worst starter. Miami had a good running game in 82 and a top pass defense and scoring defense. Also good special teams in kick and punt return.
LOVE OUR BALTIMORE COLTS....Love Memorial stadium....Fans stayed away because of irsay....how did nfl even allow him to buy the rams and then trade for the colts...
Don Shula returns to Baltimore to once again show the Colts that he was one of the greatest coaches of all time. Maybe if Shula remains in Baltimore, Elway won't demand a trade to Denver. Who knows?
Hello! I've been looking for this game ever since I saw the GOTW back in 81. I've downloaded it but is there any chance I could get a copy direct from the file(s) you have of this game? I have a collection of over 1000 broadcasts back to 1968. Just let me know. THANK YOU!!
This is the way I remember football on grass played by tough men not girlyguys giving their all not politizing every play for glory.lebron woke James and all your kind eat your❤ out
