The NFL in 2012 had many crazy storylines; bounty gate suspensions, Randy Moss coming out of retirement, the replacement refs, Peyton Manning's return with a new team, the Ravens improbable run, and more.

This nostalgia boutta hit so hard. 2012 was the first season I vividly remember, made me a fan for life.
Exactly this season hits different cuz of this reason especially watching the 49ers for the first time in their peak. 2012 was something else
Your first season is like your first love: you always have a special slot in your heart for them.
@@floriento I hate the 49ers so much man 😡 👿
God what a season. First game i ever watched the whole way through was the bears vikings matchup where adrain made their entire defence look silly. Havent missed a vikings game since :)
Bro me too remember the sb the year before but not much else
Worth Mentioning:
Rookie Linebacker Luke Kuechly lead the league in tackles and won DROY.
Charles Tillman finished the season as an All-Pro with 10 Forced Fumbles and 3 interceptions that all went for touchdowns.
Brian Urlacher would not resign with the Bears after the season and he subsequently retired.
Matt Schaub delivered a game where he posted the second highest passing yardage ever in a game with 527.
After Super Bowl 47, Ray Lewis retires and safety Ed Reed moves on from Baltimore.
The Kansas City finished with the worst record in the NFL despite boasting 6 Pro Bowlers.
The Saints defense allowed the most yards ever in a 16-game season.
Kuechly won DPoY in his second season, not his rookie
@@itscole83 My mistake - I meant to put DROY.
Still, he won two prestigious awards in his first two years in the league. That’s impressive!
Alex Smith went to that 2-14 KC team and forst year with Andy Reid. They rattled off a 9-0 start. Making the playoffs with a ridiculous upset loss to the Colts.
cannot forget the superbowl was a battle of brothers
Thought Bobby Wagner deserved to win that year but Luke Kuechly was an animal
This is the season I really began watching football. The emotions here are strong. I miss watching Peyton Manning so much. RIP Demaryius Thomas. I love your work KTO!

Who asked?
@@josephinedesio3352
Nobody asked you.
every time i see you post the 10 year ago from today i drop everything to watch it it reminds of how fast time goes i appricate the content you’ve brought us over the years KTO
I graduated ten years ago 😢
Same here!
💯
Damn I was 10 years old 😅 I miss all of these memories tho
Same here graduated too
I simply refuse to believe that 2012 was 10 years ago 😭
you and me both, I was 4 years out of high school already by then
Same, I was in 2nd grade then now I’m gonna be a senior in high school
2008 was just a few years ago in my mind
Lol I was a jr in high school that year.
Me too
Seeing how the Falcons blew a 17 point lead, seems like things haven’t changed much
You savage. I bet only 28.3 percent of Atlanta fans agree with you.
3-28
Adding fuel to the fire, they blew a 20-point lead in the divisional round and almost lost
Please don't remind me 😞
Gotta watch the Secret Base 7-hour history of the Falcons.
This was the season that made me a Ravens fan. Watching the Ravens go on that crazy run along with Ray Lewis’s speech on Madden 13 made me a Ravens fan.
I was a fan for the year before. Heartbreaking. But we got Tucker, and the rest is his history.
We always love more fans 😊
This season to this day has to be one of the most sketchy and fraud seasons.
Man I was 6 watching this super bowl I was so hyped at my young age
I’m with you Brother. I’m a MD boy and seeing the Ravens win the Lombardi was something special. Hands down my favorite sports memory
The “what was the _____ like ____ years ago” videos are my favorite. Keep up the work KTO
that ray rice run was so crazy. he didn’t that in the clutch too!!
WHOOOO DEEEYY
Man, this season was the first year I really cared about football. I still can’t ever forget watching Peterson come so close to the record.
it burns when I pee, can you help me?
Dude averaged 160 YPG from week 7 onwards.
That “mile high miracle” throw by Flacco to Jacoby Jones against Denver at the end of the game is one of my greatest moments ever as a Ravens fan. I’ll never forget my
friend tackled me over the coffee table we were so excited. Great memories and one of the greatest games ever played in my opinion!
As a broncos fan this kills me everytime I see it
remember it vividly even tho i was so young i was like 7, but my cousins were getting ready to leave, everyone is hugging goodbye, but wait, flacco down field. caught. everyone is running around screaming and shouting and everything stood still for a minute
🤣 bro me and like 4 friends went out to a sports bar and snuck in booze, we were seniors in high school. When jacoby scored that td we went fucking off. Almost got kicked out. I'll never forget that game. Probably the best ravens game I've ever seen..
@Rowdy Jr lol
As a die hard Raven, this season STILL gives me chills to this day. Great work as always!
Just goes to show people who beat their wives can carry a team on 4th&29
Crazy season for sure.
Coming off of the Evans/Cundiff choke of 2011 against Pats in AFCCG.
Reigning DPOY Suggs tears Achilles in April playing basketball. Ray Lewis tears tricep during the season. Returns for playoffs and announces his last ride. Our best CB Webb tears his ACL early in the season.
Tucker beats out Cundiff in preseason to be our new kicker. Bryant McKnnie out of shape to play LT until the playoffs where it helped out offense immensely.
Controversial games against the Eagles (loss, replacement refs errantly overturn game winning fumble recovery), Pats (win, extra point over goal post), and Chargers (win, ray rice 4th and 29). Of course Mile High Miracle.
I don't think we'll ever see another season like that.
I'm a longtime Patriots fan who's always respected the Ravens. I knew they had our number that year, wasn't even upset. That was a great team.
Ray Lewis murdered that post season, great times!
frrr ravens flock⚫️🟣
The NFL just hit different between 2008-2013
Agreed 💯
It felt like a changed happened after the Russell Wilson interception at the 1. I can’t really explain it but it ushered a new era. Odell Beckham’s ascension as well but that happened before the pick.
Fr and those were the years my falcons were good to
Mad… 2012 was really 10 years ago! Time flies…
Got goosebumps when I saw that Demaryius Thomas highlight. Crazy to think he was drafted in 2010 and died at age 33. Gone too soon man. Great video
As a ravens fan, I was like there’s no way he forgot about 4th and 29. But another thing was Ray Lewis. He was injured in week 6 I believe and came back for the playoffs. And announced he would retire at the end of the season. He ended his career on a Super Bowl victory
Not too mention Terrell Suggs coming back from a torn Achilles in just less than 6 months. His first game was one week after Ray Lewis tore his triceps.
Hey diddle diddle ray rice up the middle
I'm a chargers fan and always talk about that play. I just knew he was gonna mention it on it. I was hoping not tho lmaaoo
2012 is the first season of the NFL i vividly remember watching and enjoying with my family. as my family is full of 49ers fans, you can imagine the complete and utter joy they had having a qb as talented as Kaepernick truly was back in the 2010s. Watching CJ on the lions, seeing the legion of boom completely destroy and dominate every offense in the league is what made me fall in love with the defensive side of the game. One of, if not the greatest NFL season of all time.
2012 was when I began watching the NFL. The things I remember the most from this season was:
- The Fail Mary
- RG3’s Rookie Of The Year Run
- Colin Kaepernick’s Debut
- The Buttfumble
- Super Bowl XLVII aka The Harbaugh Bowl aka The Blackout Bowl
As a Houston fan, I still can't believe how good we were that year. Oh how everything crumbled so quick after
That Patriot letterman jacket game
Tbh it crumbled slowly they kept making the playoffs with that core but it was just beat Andy dalton and then flop
A season as a ravens fan I will never forget!! Also great work on the video
It’s crazy how insanely talented that 2012 Texans team was could fall apart so unbelievably fast to 2-14 the next season.
I don’t know what in the world happened to Matt Schaub that following offseason where he went from one of the league’s best QB’s to a guy who looked completely lost out there
These 10 year old videos are such a wonderful thing. It brings out past memories and I can't wait for next year.
Ray rice was a beast of a player.
Shame that he couldn’t keep it together off the field
they didnt care about CTE back then
My goodness that was the smoothest transition into an Ad I’ve ever seen 😂
I look forward to these vids every year. I started watching football in 2018 so it’s cool seeing all the nuances of the seasons
The yearly tradition been here for so long keep it up!
Man alot of memories. The year started with one of the best games, AFC championship. Then seeing the ravens take it the following year was great.
I LOVE THIS SERIES! It’s crazy that I was only 10-11 years old this season and I’m able to remember a lot of these. By 2013 and beyond I’ll be able to remember everything!
You always will man, at that age I always remember Eli Manning beating the Patriots thanks to the helmet catch. I'm finally at the age where everyone I remember then (besides Brady) has retired. Enjoy your first generation of players as an NFL fan. They're gone before you know.
Dang dude, already 10 years 😔 this was the first year I seriously started watching football and as a young fan it’s crazy how the time has flown… Thank you for the amazing video KTO! Go Steelers!!!
Forgot to mention the tumultuous 2012-13 Kansas City Chiefs, a season involving a player committing a murder-suicide, A blackout at Arrowhead Stadium during a Week 11 game against the Bengals, The Chiefs were head-coached by the recently retired Romeo Crennel and new Giants HC Brian Daboll was also on the Chiefs staff. The Chiefs were quarterbacked by both Matt Cassel and Brady Quinn that year. The following 2013 offseason, the Chiefs hired former Eagles HC Andy Reid and traded for former 49ers QB Alex Smith.
Yup awful year to be a Chiefs fan
I didn't start watching the NFL outside of the Super Bowl until 2011, and ended up picking the Chiefs for my team. Then 2012 happened and it was brutal... I remember that season all too well.
But in retrospect compared to where the Chiefs are now, I look back on 2012 still remembering how bad it was, but it also sure made eventually winning Super Bowl LIV SSSSOOOO much sweeter.
Given KTO's recent videos on the 2008 Dolphins and 1976-77 Bucs, the 2012 Chiefs would be a great (and very sad) video for a deep dive too I think.
Was this the same year they didn't have a single Wide receiver catch a TD pass? Lol that's insane to me.
@@judmagers7428 Nah, that was 2014 for that oddity. That season was just underwhelming, but thankfully nowhere near as bad as 2012.
@@judmagers7428 No that was the 2014-15 season
As a Ravens fan this season will also be something special
I remember watching the Blackout Bowl on TV. I cannot believe it's been 10 years already.
Ray Rice seems like an up and coming player. Really Elevated his play that year. Seemed like the knock out punch the ravens needed to win the big game.
His girlfriend was beautiful, a knockout
I sense the irony in your comment
Back I was trying to figure out if I should watch football with my dad or play black ops 2 with my friends. Anyway the super bowl was crazy
Let’s not forget 2012 was also the year I had Adrian Peterson and Calvin Johnson on my fantasy football team. It was down hill for me the next decade
KTO. Hey man thanks. You definitely have one of the coolest, educational, unique documentaries about football on these TH-cam streets. Thanks man. Definitely in my rotation heavy.
I think there should be a video dedicated to "NFL Plays that changed a season". For example, you used the Ray Rice 4th & 29 play for 2012. In 2011, it was the Dez Bryant fingertips out of bounds against the Giants. I can try to help:
2001 - Jets beat the Raiders in the last game of the season on a last-second FG that forced the Raiders to play in the first round of the playoff instead of hosting the second round of the playoffs. If the Raiders win that game, it's possible the Tuck Rule game never happens and/or the Raiders beat the Patriots in sunny California instead of losing in snowy New England.
2002 - Patriots beat the Dolphins in OT in comeback fashion, knocking out the Dolphins and putting the Jets in the playoffs.
2003 - The infamous "The Cardinals have knocked the Vikings out of the playoffs!" play.
2004 - Week 15 - The Lions miss the game-tying extra point, which helped the Vikings make the playoffs and beat the Packers in Lambeau Field in the playoffs.
2005 - Week 14 - Chiefs have the lead against the Cowboys late, but a holding penalty keeps the Cowboy's drive alive, thus leading to the Cowboys score. Chiefs end up missing the playoffs by one game. Steelers, instead, take the 6th seed and win the Super Bowl that year.
2006 - To return the favor, the Steelers beat the Bengals in OT (and the 49ers beat the Broncos in OT) to put the Chiefs in the playoffs as the 6th seed.
2007 - A penalty and a timeout give Brady and the Patriots second chances against the Ravens to help continue their undefeated season.
2008 - In Week 1, a fourth down stop in the 4th quarter by the Ravens against the Bengals gives them a 11-5 record, which is just enough to beat out the Patriots for the 6th seed.
2009 - Jets stop a Brady attempt to tie the game late in Week 2. Jets end up going 9-7, tying 4 other teams and getting the 5th spot. Ended up making it to the AFC Championship Game.
2010 - A 4th down stop late in the game in Week 1 helps the Packers win in Philadelphia for the first time in 40+ years. Packers end up being the 6th seed and winning the Super Bowl.
Just a few suggestions 😉
Born and raised in Baltimore. It was a great year to be a Ravens fan
I’m going to love this video and next years. As a Seahawks fan for my mental state going to have to skip the end of the what the nfl looked like in 2014 video.
Same cant wait for next years video
Another banger KTO. I’m so glad they’re channel’s like yours to help me relive these moments. I’m only 25 but this felt like so long ago 😭😭😭 keep it up homie
hey KTO, great video as always.
i just want to give feedback on how you chose to integrate those plays with the TV animation.
it’s a nice idea, i just find it a bit hard to make out everything.
i‘d find it better if you either show the play without that TV ’window‘ or if you make the entire thing a little bigger.
i‘m on my phone but i am sure others might have the same issue.
I was a senior in high school during the 2012 season! Talk about time literally flying by!!!!
Also, the Buttfumble sealed Mark Sanchez's fate with the Jets! 😂😂
As a Jets fan I would also say it sealed rex Ryan’s fate as well
The year the Vikings had a running back as a qb 😂
I was watching a bunch of these last night. Awesome that you release the latest one right now
Absolutely Love your videos my man. Always looking forward to the next one.
Such great work!
As a Chargers fan, this season was pain/ emotional damage. That Bronco comeback was pain. Emotional damage…. Ravens vs Chargers 4th and 27!!!! And Ray Rice gets 28 🤦♂️ EMOTIONAL DAMAGE
2012 was brutal for us Bolts fans. Hopefully this year change our fortune, but our division is not giving us so much slack. Hunger games? More like the film Battle Royale
I’m a fan too, I couldn’t help but laugh at the end of the video. Such a Chargers moment 😂😢
Feel like you should have mentioned how Flacco had one of the greatest playoff runs in history. 11tds 0ints. Only matched by Joe Montana
crazy, just yesterday i was just thinking about when this year’s edition was coming out. great content as usual
As a Ravens fan, this season was such a rollercoaster.
Torrey Smith’s game vs the Pats and the sus field goal to win, mind you the 2011 AFCCG was still very fresh in our minds when rookie kicker Justin Tucker kicked that.
Ray Lewis getting injured, declared his “last ride” before the playoffs.
4th & 29.
Getting blown out at home by the Broncos, only to beat them in the playoffs a month later.
Beating the crap out of the defending SB champs in order to clinch the AFCN (btw - they rested their starters for the last game, so it’s not for sure they lose the division if they lose the Chargers game).
Then the playoff run of beating the hated Colts who always had the Ravens number in the playoffs, then the Broncos with the Mile High Miracle, a revenge win in the AFCCG, and of course the Harbaugh Bowl that became the Blackout Bowl, which ended with a Ravens W.
That seasons gonna last with us forever holy heck was it a ride.
That was a smooth transition into your sponsor, KTO. I'm gonna sign up, as soon as I finish this video ✌️
Thanks for showing some love to my Falcons (even though they blew a lead in the Conference Championship game).
Hopefully,
the NFL-- and all other major sports-- will become watchable, again.
#ChuckStrong #RIPDT
Not hating but- what makes them unwatchable now?
@@connor8762 conservative media and politicians all complaining how “woke” they’ve become. Sure, the pandering is a bit extreme. But the term “woke” is just a go to punchline that has become beyond tedious.
That freaking Broncos comeback...
I thought it was over. I flipped to a different channel because it was clearly over. I check ESPN later to find out I missed my favorite team mount the comeback of the year. I still kick myself over that one.
That’s still my favorite Broncos regular season game ever. I was at the bar full of charger fans getting clowned then that freaking sweet comeback happened😎
Season recaps like these are awesome
Very well put together video. Awesome job, sir!
The year I won my very first fantasy title! Rodgers and the Bears D were the main reasons behind that title.
And if not for a combination error in another league (or if they allowed co-champs), I would've won 2 titles that year.
When I saw the thumbnail, my first thought was "Randy Moss didn't sign with the 49ers in 02." 2012 being a decade ago does not seem real.
Damn KTO... The nostalgia kick you gave me. I absolutely love it man. Great video... Amazing job my guy
Love these videos cant click fast enough when i see one pop up in my subscription box!!
As a Ravens fan, I’ll always treasure this season! Thx for the great video!
You guys got bailed out on 4th&29 by a wife beater then bailed out by a no PI call in the bowl
One of the best years of my life. Best part of that season was I won twenty from Trey on the SB!
Wasn’t getting your videos and kinda forgot about one of the most entertaining channels ever but thanks for all your hard work brotha
I’m so happy you uploaded today my man, sorry you guys got Josh Rosen
2012 Adrian Peterson is easily one of the most dominant athletes I’ve ever seen
One of my first seasons to actually be able to remember. 2012 was a great year, and a great disappointment because of my niners.
This season was unforgettable as a niner fan . Crushes me everytime
You guys got screwed over twice by the Refs and if it wasn't for them, you guys would've have 7 rings in your franchise history.
You could easily make these videos 30-60 min, great stuff
Manning hitting Stokley for that TD, man when I saw that back then and even to this day it gives me goosebumps. They were my Football hero’s growing up and seeing them together again in Denver made me a hardcore Bronco fan!
Oh man, the replacement refs. That was equal parts brutal and embarrassing.
Just finished the vid, can’t wait for next year’s video. Can’t believe it’s almost been 10 years.
One of these for “every” season would be solid
i feel like this season isn’t remembered as well or talked about as much bc of what came directly after and before it. plus the super bowl champ was considerably weaker than normal. so were the 2011 giants, but there was so much offense that regular season. 2012 was crazy and yet it seems to be glossed over by a lot of younger and older fans alike
All I can think about is how this type of video for next 10 years is just gonna show all the pain for packer fans and how Aaron Rodgers Career has been playoff loss after playoff loss
Love these videos,Keep up the great work dude!
love to see you growing boss. almost 150k views in 1 day 🔥
Hard to believe the Kansas city chiefs went 2-14 this year!!
Fr. I still remember them as the team that was always good in the regular season but always choked in the playoffs and were a consistent first round exit. People forget that Andy Reid had the reputation of a choker/bad time manager before Mahomes came along
2-14 actually and it was a wild season for the Chiefs (off the field)
@@maxwasson2000 oop my bad! Thanks ! :)
@@maxwasson2000 how so? I kinda forget
They also had six pro bowlers as well. Now I know that the pro bowl is a joke, but damn. Six pro bowlers! Yet, they finished the year 2-14.
Dare I say it, but the replacement refs were actually right at the end of that 2012 Packers-Seahawks game. According to the NFL rulebook, a simultaneous catch counts as a reception for the offensive player. The “Fail Mary” wasn’t such a fail after all.
I don’t think it was simultaneous.
@@tuckerseifert3977, I know it’s easier to tell which player had their mitts on the ball first in a situation like that when watching in slow motion, but I don’t think something like that can be challenged. If an offensive and defensive player both snatch a ball in midair and then both come down wrestling for the ball, it goes down as a reception for the offensive player. The “Fail Mary” was actually called properly by the replacement refs.
I started watching football in 2012 and ever since I found KTO a few years ago I've been waiting for this video. 🔥
Great video, thanks for taking us back! It would have been cool if you included Ray Lewis's retirement along with the Ravens Super Bowl win. That clip of his last pre-game entrance at home would have been awesome to see
To anyone that thinks Randy Moss is the greatest receiver, no he isn’t, Jerry Rice is. Moss was washed by 33 and Rice put up 1000 yards in his 40s
These videos never miss. Thanks for another great one
Can’t believe ray rice beat the defense like that on one play. Really punched through for that first down.
I love the 10 yr ago vids, keep it up man❤️
Been waiting for this one‼️
Love your channel man!
Really looking forward to next year’s video. 2013 was when I first really got into football so it’s going to bring back some memories
I love this annual series, keep it up ❤️
This is the first season I watched football, this video makes me feel old 😭
That ad segway was ruthless, great video as usual btw
Thank you for this. This was my 1st year watching football. Brings back a lot of memories
Great video was waiting for this one.
Great video as usual man!
As usual, another fantastic job of storytelling and amazing production values. Well done!
How about a vid of 20 years ago. I became a fan around that time. Great vid as always KTO!
How about 43 years ago when i became a fan?
always look forward to the yearly video
Now that was a smooth transition to a sponsor. Keep it up KTO!
If you can please make a video about the 2015 NFL season because that season was something different
Wow this video blew my mind incredible research and editing
Love these type of videos.
Fun Fact: 2012 also marked the return of Nike as the NFL's official gear manufacturer (replacing Reebok who was the previous one since 2001 and before that, it was various in the mid-90s (including Nike with its famous Batwing-style template that let the Broncos had their 1st modern major jersey style change and it's still there today ever since) like Starter or Puma or Adidas), as well as its debut season of the Nike NFL Elite 51 jersey. With the wide neck space and weird shoulder yoke style.
P.S.: Also if only the Vikings had gave the ball a bit more to Peterson before the final seconds of that game at home against the Packers, he would had definitely and rightfully had owned that single-season rushing yardage record, despite it would lead to overtime and might still go for more yardage and to possibly win that game. Instead, they conservatively played safe with the field goal with nearly no time left. And I was rooting for AP at that moment to possibly make history. But his team had thought otherwise with another idea.
KTO gets a like from me before the ad even ends. Keep up the great work man.
The ending of all your videos are always bangers
These videos are great every single time
