The Team That Never Quit | Eagles 1977 Season Recap 

these are the Birds of my youth, when i first started watching football. this is real football, and i still love these guys. i was born at just the right time, so that when i was first really learning about sports, all four of our teams were rising to the top. the late 70's saw the Flyers remain a Cup contender, the Sixers were a top NBA team that picked up the most exciting player in basketball, Dr. J and hte Eagles and Phillies rose from the basement to become championship calibre. what a wonderful time to be a Philadelphia sports fan. Ron Jaworski was one tough SOB. a very good quarterback, just try to imagine today's quarterbacks playing under the rules that Jaws and Bradshaw and Snake and Staubach and Montana played. anyone thinks Brady would have lasted as long as he did? nope. anyone think so many passing records would have been broken? nope. for many years, i had a Bill Bergey "Fly for Leukemia" posterin my room. it was autographed and featured a great picture of the Eagle great at the start of a play.

Kudos to the one doing the editing at 20:57 . . Only lasts 3 seconds, but leaves a lasting impression on the 1977 season as a whole . . .

After 15 years of futility the Philadelphia Eagles hired Dick Vermeil in 1976 and from there he began to put the pieces together as the Eagles would go to the playoffs from 1978 until 1981 which includes a trip to the Superbowl. Dick Vermeil did a outstanding job of bringing respectibilty to the Philadelphia Eagles.

Many thanks. I've been waiting 42 years to finally see the 1977 season Eagles highlights. Deac Sanders replaces Bill Bradley; Keith Krepfle replaces Charle Young. Free agent find Herm Edwards! Did you see Roman Gabriel pitch it to Wilbert Montgomery in the finale?

Met Ron Jaworski along with Harold Carmichael, Kevin Turner (RIP) Chuck Bednarik (RIP) and Tommy McDonald (RIP).

Love Wilbert.

Bill Bergey was the beginning of respect for The birds defense. He never stopped. 76 a great year to be 16

In 1977-1978 season Eagles improved their record from each, previous 2 seasons, back-to-back, 1975-1976/1976-1977 (when they went 4-10-0 in each, those previous 2 seasons). They went 5-9-0/that was foretaste, each, next 4 seasons (1978-1979 thru 1981-1982) when they'd reach playoffs

Vermeil was a tough coach, he worked his players hard. At USC, the players complained....but they won a title, the Eagles did the same..but they got to the Super Bowl and the Rams...oh man. Vermeil only had 8 players left from the original roster when he won that Super Bowl. He didn't work them because he hated them, he worked them because that is how you GET BETTER. It's also how the USA beat the USSR in the 1980 Olympics. Having gas in the tank late in the game is where all that hard work gets you.

Quick: Who replaced Charlie Swift as Eagles broadcaster? Hint: He is still around to this day.

I don’t know if it’s true, but I once heard that someone told Tom Brady about the injuries that RonJaworski played with andBrady missed 3 games

Herman edwards was my favorite

Love the funky music while watching the Eagles of the 70's, especially at 14:39

On opening day they extended the Buccaneers losing streak to 15 games

Vince papale

I went to high school with Scott Jaworski nephew of the eagles QB

So this was Merrill Reese's 1st year with the Iggles?

Bergey was the best

I hate how they go down the list of players instead of going over the games that year

Personally.....I would like the Eagles to bring back the vintage Apple Kelly Green and Cascade Silver and Spotlight White jerseys (1974-85)....And classic green helmets too.. I am sooo sick and tired of current-present day midnight bluish green jerseys..😠😡😤 Just saying..... Monday 08 March 2021

All over the damn place
