Man played almost an entire game on a broken leg. Jack will be a badass for life in my book. Take care and God bless. I really miss that era of football.
@@water-of-life No doubt! Took my Son to Canton in 2001...we got his Ram helmet signed by Jack on the left horn and Dryer on the right one! All by chance the morning of the ceremonies! You can pay 150 dollar fee to meet and greet the guys afterwards...we just got lucky! Awesome day... Where we were sitting in the stands we sat right beside one of Jack's girlfriends from back in the day!
@@water-of-life Pop worked for the LA Times so we got to go to all the Pro Bowls at the Coliseum! It was awesome growing up in Downey! Merlin Olsen lived across the street from my Jr high ✌️
And the Lord said "Lot" hey brother we got trouble...go to your city and find me ONE good man....I'd be knocking on Jack Youngblood's door...to save my city! Pop took me to my first Ram game in 1969 , I took my Son to Canton in 2001 and got his helmet signed on the left horn by Youngblood and by Dryer on the right horn! All by chance meeting! Awesome!

ya LT played with a bum shoulder but Jack played on a broken leg - toughest guy ever- probably throw rocky bleier in there to, you can walk around easy with a shoulder but every step hurts with a broken leg or with rocky a gernade injury to your leg tough great guys
Speedy recovery Mr. Youngblood wish you well. I've been a Ram fan since 1970 & enjoyed watching you play. I still Google your name just to remind me how tough you are. God Bless.
He meant so much to all the kids in my elementary/junior high school class growing up in the 70s in So Cal. We all thought he was a God. He is the epitome of what a man should be and is the epitome of anything 1970s. All the best JY
I'm a Cowboys fan and Mr. Youngblood was always a thorn in our side. We had a HOF right tackle (Rayfield Wright) that couldn't handle him. But then, HOF's like Dierdorf and Yary couldn't either. I'm not sure where he's rated, I'm just sure he's underrated.
I am 6 foot three 250lb and I was at Santa Anita 30 years ago he was there giving out a trophy. He was huge made me look small and his upper body was shaped like V shoulder to waist. Never seen I guy built like that small waist huge shoulders.
Probably one of the toughest SOBs that ever played the game.
Agreed!
Definitely the toughest.
Roger Staubach said so!
Thank you Jack for being My Hero!! Being a Rams fan in Illinois in the 70s and 80s was a memory I'll never forget!! God bless you my friend!!!
As a lifelong RAM fan,Jack is just one of The Ram family that keeps me loyal.
GO
RAMS

3 games + the PRO BOWL , and somewhere along the line had a hotdog sized blood clot removed too th-cam.com/video/q_3eQNQ6s3Y/w-d-xo.html
He played 2 1/2 games on that leg ..all playoffs and the Superbowl....RAMS would of won if Youngblood wasn't hobbled!

@@jamescoleakaericunderwood2503 , I wouldn't go that far! LOL! Definitely might have helped though! He was awesome! Go Steelers!
Jack, come back stronger than ever...you were (are) Awesome.
Oh wow. I'm a huge fan. And to think how many games year in and year out he played. Amazing athlete.
Yup ...he was ALWAYS THERE!
the first time i saw capt.jack he the greatest player #85 saw played 1971 at Cleveland.
You'll never see his like again! Matt
A true warrior. Too tough for todays game.
Youngblood is my favorite football player of all time. Walter Payton a close second.
Now that's a good looking couple right there!

Aaron Donald couldn't sniff his jock
They're BOTH great football players. Don't discredit one to credit the other.
@@zyxwut321 sorry pal Youngblood strapped it on every game Donald sits out games but I get it mcvay lost this team by halloween
Why would he want to?
Are we possibly a tad bit racist?
