Think about Tommy Maddox. His career at one point seemed well and buried to the point I think it was ESPN was coming out to do their equivalent of a 30 for 30 back at that time. That one year, in the grand scheme of things for that team, probably didn't mean anything. But for him that one year was enough to prove to himself he was good enough. A lot of players will never get that style of closure, and even more never got the shot this player did.
For every Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Aaron Rogers, and Drew Brees there's 50 Sandy Oshieski's. Guys who come up, get 1 tiny little window, and then disappear forever.
How many HOF QBs can say the worst play of their career made hundreds of thousands of people feel proud to be human? Thank you, Mr.Osieski. I -- we all needed that.
So bro only played one game. Wow. I know this interview had to hurt him. He took his meek mill of an L and really never took it for granted. god bless sammy. Thats the real definition of taking the smallest things to heart
Josiah Clark You're never gonna believe this kid, but there was no internet thirty years ago 😮 no smart phones either, in those days if we wanted to be entertained we had to do it ourselves, weird huh?
Dan Wacker Wow. You don't know how to take a joke. Your an adult who probably says " back in my day" way too much. Saying that they probably got a lot of points in fantasy football is clearly a joke and if you can't see that then you shouldn't be calling other people "kids"
You're never gonna believe this kid, but thirty years ago fantasy football was a thing. In those days if you wanted to play you would have to meet up with people weekly and tally points and have actual meetings about trades.
The 80's were some of the best years of my life and watching THESE Hawks were a great part of it . You younger folks appreciate today like it's your last day on earth .
+Santin sinoi They went to the Superbowl in 2005, idiot. But win or lose, the Seahawks have always been well supported; you'd know that if you actually lived here.
i think it's suuuuuuuper cool that they found some "no-named player" from 1984 and that he was able to reflect on a game with a smile even though it went nothing but wrong for him! #Props #Osieski
we moved to Seattle in 83 and I moved there a Steelers fan. Hey back then there was no game package to watch your team. The Steelers were never- ever on local tv so I naturally became a Seahawks fan. Now my best friend has season tickets and the Hawks were just starting to get players that I could relate to. Ken Easley and that pack of wild dogs that played D. I gotta tell you -- That was special. Many years have passed yet I still remember those days. Great days - If Curt Warner wouldn't have blown his knee out I believe they may have gotten one or two rings.
A small correction: They didn't have the second most takeways ever, they are tied for the most with the 78 49ers at 63 in a season. No NFL team has ever had more. That is 4 per game if you are counting, folks. Crazy.
+DWardington Um, offensive turnovers? WTF are you talking about. They had 63 takeaways, not turnovers. And the Chargers were not in the NFL in 1961, they were in the AFL. Might as well start counting college takeaways in 1952 while you are at it. NFL is what we are talking about.
+DWardington You are half right - I did look at the wrong stat about SF, but San Diego was not in the NFL in 1961, they were in the AFL. So technically the Seahawks have the best takeaway season ever for an NFL superbowl era team.
Oh, please. It was before the two leagues merged, and before there was even a Superbowl. There were much fewer teams. No one looks at it the same, because it wasn't the same. There is a reason everything gets prefaced "in the Superbowl era".
Been a Seahawks fan since 1975, the year before they started, when it was first announced Seattle would get an NFL team. I waited years to get a home team to root for. And I don't begrudge or demean anyone for being a band wagon fan. The more the merrier. It's a great party folks c'mon and join us!
The early 90s were our dark ages. I vividly remember being in a half full kingdome many times. That's what makes what they've done now even more magical
+SF Giants Dynasty So everyone born after 1996 that grew up in a Seahawks household is obviously a band-wagoner? Yeah, you just made yourself look like a big idiot with your comment.
Osieski has a great outlook on his time in the NFL, if only ALL players were so grateful, especially after their multiple millions made playing what amounts to a kid's game. A game. Any guy that can still smile like that after such a day is a good guy in my book!
Kenny Easley was a monster on this team. He caught the NFL record setting pick six. He also just got inducted into the Football Hall of Fame. The Seahawks have historically always had a phenomenal defense with several players in the Hall of Fame with more to come you can pretty much bank on that. Damn near the entire Seahawks defense now will end up in the Hall of Fame. You people who keep calling Seahawks fans bandwagon fans since 2012 are delusional at best. Seahawks, SuperSonics and the Mariners have been a HUGE DEAL in Seattle and basically the entire Northwestern part of North American for DECADES. The Seahawks was in the Super Bowl in 2005 with a phenomenal running back so it's not like the Seahawks were only good in 2012 and onward. You haters are going to be miserable for a long time because the Seahawks are set with a great team, quarterback, coach, city and fans. Now Seattle is a destination which wasn't always the case in the past. Now Seattle is one of the larger markets in the NFL because of the extreme growth of the city over the past 20 years or so. Seattle is now bigger than Boston and will pass up San Francisco in less than 3 years at it's current growth rate which is leading the entire US for major cities. The west coast population just keeps getting bigger and bigger with no end in sight trust me I live on a planet called Los Angeles that's bigger than Jupiter. Players want to come to Seattle now because the Seahawks have established a winning culture and dominate the NFC west every year. They are playing for Super Bowls every year in Seattle now. Look how popular the Seahawks are now. They are in my opinion the most popular team in the NFL I live in Los Angles and I see Seahawks jerseys everywhere. Richard Sherman is from Compton and you'll see his jersey here in LA all day along with Russell Wilson plus Pete Carol use to coach USC so we love him. Beast Mode (MarShawn Lynch) is basically a hip hop and pop culture icon and a verb. (BEAST MODE is officially a verb now). He's back home here in Cali playing for the Raiders I hope he does well. When the Seahawks play anywhere especially on the west coast be it LA, Arizona, San Francisco or Oakland about a third of the stadiums are filled with Seahawks fans. Watch the post game show on Seahawks road games and you'll see half the stadium are Seahawks fans it's crazy I've never seen anything like that before except for in the NBA when the Lakers (or KOBE BRYANT) would play in other cities. Stop hating on the Seahawks and worry about your team stepping their game up.
Dave Brown is DECADES overdue for the Hall of Fame. The first GREAT Corner for Seattle. 62 INTs and a rock at CB for a decade. Those 80s Seahawks teams had more great players than just Largent and Easley
I hated how Pittsburgh had to give up Dave Brown after the 1975 season to the Expansion Draft. By the end of the 1970s and throughout the 80s the Steelers secondary struggled. Brown would have been a key cog teaming up with Mel Blount at cornerback from 1978-83.
Jay Lor,,,, Yes. But for some reason Joe Nash was one of my favorite players back in the day. He played nose tackle for SEA for many years. He was a big mean lookin run stopper in the middle, the least glamorous guy on the field & me and my brothers all loved that guy. P
I wish Seattle can go back to wearing those uniforms again. They were my favorite as a kid back in '87. I wore those jersies every single day when I was in elementary school,cause I played for a city league by the name of Merrick Seahawks. Seattle's celebrating their 40 anniversary of the '76 year of establishment and I don't see not? 😕😳
They don't wear them for throwbacks anymore because the NFL banned alternate helmets and lemme tell you, you DO NOT want to see the modern Seahawks helmets on their olden uniforms.
White Knight Of the Internet Lol. Or vice-versa. Doesn't Dallas play with alternate helmets whenever they play on Thanksgiving? I believe their original helmet color is white. At the same time,I notice most teams that play on Thanksgiving play with with alternates like the Shitiami Dolphins ... I hate that team,because I vividly remember watching Seattle vs Miami at the Kingdome when Kitna was Seattle's qb with Joey Galloway, Cortez Kennedy, Shawn Springs and Chad Brown when Seattle lost vs Miami in the wildcard back in '99 when Seattle was in the AFC West. Seattle might be wearing that lime green uniform ... Again. Last time Seattle wore those jersies was 7 years ago when Jim Mora Jr Seattle's coach and lost vs Chicago when Seneca Wallace was leading the way at helm. Philly wears that powder blue and yellow alternate uniform almost yearly. Why not Seattle? It's only been 14 years since Seattle last wore those uniforms. I mean,do uniforms need to be around 30 years old,before acknowledging it's alternate? Kinda like a antique car. A vehicle is considered a antique after 30 years and you don't need insurance to drive. So,Seattle basically has to wait 16 more years before wearing their alternate uniforms again? Lol.
Marc Amico According to Article 2 on Uniforms, a team can only dress in the colors it assigns itself when brought before the commissioner. Throwback uniforms and helmet changes henceforth go under Alternate uniforms which are an exception to the rule. You can NOT wear anything other than the combination of a team's Home or Away outfits unless wearing Alternate uniforms, which can only have a different helmet under the circumstance that the entire outfit is alternate. Seattle's alternate uniform is the Wolf Grey's, therefore they can't wear Throwback uniforms. The reason the Dolphins were wearing Throwbacks against the Giants was because that constitutes as their alternate uniform. Had they worn Home pants per say, they would have to wear the modern helmet. So alternate helmets are allowed, but you can't change your helmet on a whim. (Article 2: static.nfl.com/static/content/public/image/rulebook/pdfs/8_Rule5_Players_Subs_Equip_GeneralRules.pdf) Before you ask why teams like the Steelers or Packers get two alternate helmets, it's because they don't mismatch their Home and Away uniforms like Seattle therefore they maintain consistency. It is also attributed to Seattle's unwillingness to wear throwbacks, which they'd only do once a year, and would require buying 53 customized helmets for each player with entire new paint schemes and logos not to mention having to custom make 53 jerseys, socks, shoes, and pants. Some teams do it through crowd funding (like the Rams) which Seattle could definitely do, but they don't because then you wouldn't see the white and blue outfits like Super Bowl XLVIII.
Two things about this clip as a guy who loved 80's football. One, that '84 team was Chuck Knox's best coaching job...to lose an All-Pro bellcow (when running backs MEANT something) like Curt Warner in the first game of the season and still make the playoffs...and beat my beloved Raiders in the wild card game with guys like Dan Doornink and a washed up Franco Harris running the ball was remarkable. Two, and it's been posted on here, but Kenny Easley really does deserve Hall of Fame consideration. He was one of the three best safeties in football in the 1980's. His career was cut short, but in seven years, he was a 1st team All Pro three times and a Pro Bowler five times. Give me a guy who was great for seven years than a guy who was good for 12 or 13.
Ironically Patriotards couldn't tell you who was on their team 33 years ago, and the other is that butler is gone after this year and he'll be as much a Super Bowl hero as Jamie Collins to Richard Seymoutr
Towards the end I felt kinda bad for that undrafted player who threw the 4th pick six, but then I realized just the fact he made an NFL team and played in a game is amazing; especially due to the fact he only threw 28 passes in college. He seemed a little disappointed in himself for not having a longer career, but he needs to hold his head... which I am sure he does to a certain extent.
As a longtime (I don't say "real fan". Sounds arrogant) Seahawks fan starting in 5th grade, in the middle of the 2004-05 season I respect these players and this incredible game. But with that said there will ALWAYS & FOREVER be only ONE L.O.B. !!!
I was in the nose bleed section that day. I realized in my early twenties that this game kept my love for the hawk's strong during many ruff seasons. Definitely my favorite team the Seahawks set on the field. Still have my ticket stub...GO SEAHAWKS
For every NFL star there are hundreds of Sandy Osieskis, guys who are a blip on the radar and maybe hang around for a year or two on an NFL roster, even just on the practice squad, before being cut and moving on to the next stage of life.
back before anyone called themself a 12 or anyone hung 12 flags in their window. that secondary was nasty though! look up Brown & Kenny Easley's stats on those early 80's seahawks teams. that had some real nice years. Dave Brown was awesome & Easley might be hof mention if he hadnt sued the league. he'd need a few more seasons but his injury really slowed him down. Easley was a monster! great video.
+Toa Ninjis the #12 was retired in 1984 & they took the slogan of "12th man" from Texas A&M. Although alot of other stadiums use that in their stadiums as well, no other team used it in marketing at all. Seattle made so much money actually marketing the slogan & theme that they were sued & then forced to pay an annual fee to use the moniker, but they were not allowed to use the 12th man on any physical things (ie jersey's or merchandise)
This was the year before Kreig led them to the playoffs. Next 2 years they were awesome yet still lost out. Just didnt have the needed depth. Noone would come play for us. Bandwagon since 1976!
Its always the Raiders and the Bengals that end our season haha. Sadly I'm 14 and wasn't able to experience the old days of the Seahawks but I watch those classic games if they are availabe.
+don trotter The Hawks made the playoffs in '84. It was probably their best year before 2005. They were 12-2 before losing their last 2 games and losing the division title to the Broncos. Warner was lost for the season after the first game with an ACL injury, so Knox had to rely on the passing game. Krieg had a monster year, throwing 37 TD passes, and the defense led the league in takeaways. It was a fun year to be a Hawks fan. Unfortunately, the season ended in the Divisional Round at the Orange Bowl against Marino's Dolphins, who had an even bigger year.
+Joe D Seattle had a monster year in '84. Denver had an opportunistic defense as well. After the season was over and Kurt Warner coming back from injury in '85, most people had a Seattle vs San Francisco prediction. In 1984, they played the 1st game vs Cleveland on a Monday, can do you remember why?
+don trotter It was in the late eighties that disaster struck the Seahawks: Steve Largent, Kenny Easley, Curt Warner, and The Boz all left the team at roughly the same time. (Note: I'm well aware that Bosworth wasn't that good, but the Seahawks nevertheless blew a first round draft choice on him). Oh, and then a couple years after these guys left, so did Dave Krieg. And with this exodus of players the dark ages descended upon the Seahawks and their fans.
I agree with most of what you wrote there. But a true hawks fan never mentions that 1 name. He who has no name is a blot on the hawks and doesnt even deserve the mention of that detestable name.Doesnt matter they used a 1st round on his worthless ass.
The chiefs got their revenge in week 15. They clobbered the Seahawks at Arrowhead. Seattle then lost to the Broncos in the final week and lost the division title. Seattle just needed to win one of those last 2 games to win the division. They were heavily favored to beat the Chiefs again, but they always struggled at Arrowhead.
It's funny how they talk about the four pick sixes for the first half of the video, and then talk about a third string quarterback who threw 16 passes lol. At least that dude got to make 10 times more than an average salary for a couple years.
When I learn of guys like Sandy, I always think of the Moonlight Graham scene in Field of Dreams. "Son, if I'd only gotten to be a doctor for 5 minutes, now that would have been a tragedy." Sports and achievement is important, but it's not everything.
This was a great secondary. This was not just one fluke game. Interceptions that year by player. Kenny Easley 10, Dave Brown 8, John Harris 6, Keith Simpson 4, Terry Jackson 4, Terry Taylor 3.
Man, when he says "I overthrew a touchdown pass" you can tell how much it still haunts him. Poor dude
and he was unlucky with that dropped pass that could have changed his career and given him another chance
mizofan Unlikely but it would still be cool to get that TD. But I’m a Hawks fan so I love the INTs in this one. Lol
david steinman lmao same here
Think about Tommy Maddox. His career at one point seemed well and buried to the point I think it was ESPN was coming out to do their equivalent of a 30 for 30 back at that time. That one year, in the grand scheme of things for that team, probably didn't mean anything. But for him that one year was enough to prove to himself he was good enough. A lot of players will never get that style of closure, and even more never got the shot this player did.
Man I feel bad for Osieski he's humble
I agree.
Who?
+Fatboy Gaming did you not watch it?
+Shane Denney it's a joke
I agree...
For every Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Aaron Rogers, and Drew Brees there's 50 Sandy Oshieski's. Guys who come up, get 1 tiny little window, and then disappear forever.

The myth,
The Godfather and Original Legion of Boom 💙💚Go Hawks
sandy seems like a great dude 💯
sandy is a girl's name..lmao

Why? He was living his dream regardless

who's meek mill?
Great to see Chuck Knox. The Man. One of my favorite NFL coaches of all time.
Glad I'm not the only one that remembers Big Chuck
One of my favorite Seahawks Defenses of all time, the very first Legion of Boom !
Seahawks defense must've put up some big fantasy points that week
Josiah Clark I don't think they had fantasy football in the early 80s

I knew Kenny Easley had to have one of them. My dad told me when Kenny was at UCLA he single handedly destroyed the Ohio State offense. He did it all.
3 qbs throwing picks in one game sounds like a normal game for the browns😂
Oh i remember the old Kingdome, good times for seahawk fans.

And I don't begrudge or demean anyone for being a band wagon fan.
The more the merrier. It's a great party folks c'mon and join us!
Look at that, the 80s Seahawks team, and guess what....
Still full stands
Well...when I was a kid in the early '90s we didn't get the home games on local TV. Why? 'Cause they didn't sell enough seats in the stadium.
That's because back in the 90s the team was intentionally sabotaged by their asshole owner before Paul Allen saved them
@@nicolehailey2089 Ken Behring was trying to move the team to LA. But he needed an excuse to move a team that was very well supported.
The early 90s were our dark ages. I vividly remember being in a half full kingdome many times. That's what makes what they've done now even more magical
@@nicolehailey2089 That was because of Ken. He tried to move the team to LA. So the fans stopped supporting him by buying tickets.
Wow look at all those "bandwagon" fans packing the stands a whole 28 years before 2012 . smh
yeah I know, cause everybody knows people love low market teams over high market teams.
+Doug Lakland yes because I wasn't alive 28 years ago

The greatest defensive player of all time IMHO.

@@bluegregory6239 That would be the scariest, most intimidating defense ever.
Dave Brown and Kenny Easley. Two of the original greats
do more of these
On this day 11/4/84 the Seahawks got a total of 6 interceptions, 4 of which were pick 6's by Dave Brown, Kenny Easley & Keith Simpson.
I hated how Pittsburgh had to give up Dave Brown after the 1975 season to the Expansion Draft. By the end of the 1970s and throughout the 80s the Steelers secondary struggled. Brown would have been a key cog teaming up with Mel Blount at cornerback from 1978-83.

(Article 2: static.nfl.com/static/content/public/image/rulebook/pdfs/8_Rule5_Players_Subs_Equip_GeneralRules.pdf)
Before you ask why teams like the Steelers or Packers get two alternate helmets, it's because they don't mismatch their Home and Away uniforms like Seattle therefore they maintain consistency. It is also attributed to Seattle's unwillingness to wear throwbacks, which they'd only do once a year, and would require buying 53 customized helmets for each player with entire new paint schemes and logos not to mention having to custom make 53 jerseys, socks, shoes, and pants. Some teams do it through crowd funding (like the Rams) which Seattle could definitely do, but they don't because then you wouldn't see the white and blue outfits like Super Bowl XLVIII.
They could make version this way with the current uni design
Two things about this clip as a guy who loved 80's football. One, that '84 team was Chuck Knox's best coaching job...to lose an All-Pro bellcow (when running backs MEANT something) like Curt Warner in the first game of the season and still make the playoffs...and beat my beloved Raiders in the wild card game with guys like Dan Doornink and a washed up Franco Harris running the ball was remarkable. Two, and it's been posted on here, but Kenny Easley really does deserve Hall of Fame consideration. He was one of the three best safeties in football in the 1980's. His career was cut short, but in seven years, he was a 1st team All Pro three times and a Pro Bowler five times. Give me a guy who was great for seven years than a guy who was good for 12 or 13.

The AFC West was a TOUGH division in the late seventies and throughout the eighties. Brutal.
yep and Pete Carrol is lucky that the NFC west is such shit because we would be screwed if not
The year the Hawks won the Super Bowl the NFC West was a combined 42-22, idiot
This has to be an Unbreakable record.
The First Legion Of BOOM!
BOOM!
BOOOOOOM!!!!
Sea Hawks ya the legion of boom and bust! Watch out for Butler Seattle!
Chowder Stevens Baldwin burn him
Ironically Patriotards couldn't tell you who was on their team 33 years ago, and the other is that butler is gone after this year and he'll be as much a Super Bowl hero as Jamie Collins to Richard Seymoutr
it's good looking back at our history
Sandi looks like he has a nice house though
Yeah, dude probably still make a decent amount of money
That's got to be in the top five most significant Seahawk games of all time right up there with the two super bowls and the 83 AFC championship
That Kingdome was the loudest stadium I have ever attended a game.
This were the good uniforms.
Towards the end I felt kinda bad for that undrafted player who threw the 4th pick six, but then I realized just the fact he made an NFL team and played in a game is amazing; especially due to the fact he only threw 28 passes in college. He seemed a little disappointed in himself for not having a longer career, but he needs to hold his head... which I am sure he does to a certain extent.
As a longtime (I don't say "real fan". Sounds arrogant) Seahawks fan starting in 5th grade, in the middle of the 2004-05 season I respect these players and this incredible game. But with that said there will ALWAYS & FOREVER be only ONE L.O.B. !!!
This is why we love football
ive probably never watched a full game in my life, but i love these videos
Canton-bound and well-earned. Hawks should be in the HOF game and Kam, his natural successor, should present him.
Hay buddy... you made it alot further then MILLIONS of others...
Good job...
Dave Brown should be in the Hall of Fame

Wish the Seahawks would still wear their old uniforms. Looked so nice on the field.
I was in the nose bleed section that day. I realized in my early twenties that this game kept my love for the hawk's strong during many ruff seasons. Definitely my favorite team the Seahawks set on the field. Still have my ticket stub...GO SEAHAWKS
remember this game like it was yesterday
When you have a stacked team in backyard football 😂 😂 😂
Imagine you had the Seahawks Defense in Fantasy Football that week.
For every NFL star there are hundreds of Sandy Osieskis, guys who are a blip on the radar and maybe hang around for a year or two on an NFL roster, even just on the practice squad, before being cut and moving on to the next stage of life.
Despite not making much money in the NFL, it looks like Sandy found luck somewhere else in life financially - beautiful house.
With a special guest appearance by Matt Schaub.
back before anyone called themself a 12 or anyone hung 12 flags in their window. that secondary was nasty though! look up Brown & Kenny Easley's stats on those early 80's seahawks teams. that had some real nice years. Dave Brown was awesome & Easley might be hof mention if he hadnt sued the league. he'd need a few more seasons but his injury really slowed him down. Easley was a monster! great video.
Wasn't the 12 used by the Seahawks in the early 80s or are my dates wrong?
+Toa Ninjis nobody called themself a "12"... there were no jersey's with #12 on it. There were no flags. all that marketing stuff is relatively new
but wasnt the number 12 retired then?
+Toa Ninjis the #12 was retired in 1984 & they took the slogan of "12th man" from Texas A&M. Although alot of other stadiums use that in their stadiums as well, no other team used it in marketing at all. Seattle made so much money actually marketing the slogan & theme that they were sued & then forced to pay an annual fee to use the moniker, but they were not allowed to use the 12th man on any physical things (ie jersey's or merchandise)
and yet he is now HOF
This was the year before Kreig led them to the playoffs. Next 2 years they were awesome yet still lost out. Just didnt have the needed depth. Noone would come play for us. Bandwagon since 1976!
Its always the Raiders and the Bengals that end our season haha. Sadly I'm 14 and wasn't able to experience the old days of the Seahawks but I watch those classic games if they are availabe.
+don trotter The Hawks made the playoffs in '84. It was probably their best year before 2005. They were 12-2 before losing their last 2 games and losing the division title to the Broncos. Warner was lost for the season after the first game with an ACL injury, so Knox had to rely on the passing game. Krieg had a monster year, throwing 37 TD passes, and the defense led the league in takeaways. It was a fun year to be a Hawks fan. Unfortunately, the season ended in the Divisional Round at the Orange Bowl against Marino's Dolphins, who had an even bigger year.
+Joe D Seattle had a monster year in '84. Denver had an opportunistic defense as well. After the season was over and Kurt Warner coming back from injury in '85, most people had a Seattle vs San Francisco prediction. In 1984, they played the 1st game vs Cleveland on a Monday, can do you remember why?
+don trotter
It was in the late eighties that disaster struck the Seahawks: Steve Largent, Kenny Easley, Curt Warner, and The Boz all left the team at roughly the same time. (Note: I'm well aware that Bosworth wasn't that good, but the Seahawks nevertheless blew a first round draft choice on him). Oh, and then a couple years after these guys left, so did Dave Krieg. And with this exodus of players the dark ages descended upon the Seahawks and their fans.
I agree with most of what you wrote there. But a true hawks fan never mentions that 1 name. He who has no name is a blot on the hawks and doesnt even deserve the mention of that detestable name.Doesnt matter they used a 1st round on his worthless ass.
This was my first NFL Game. That place was rocking. Six picks in total
Aww man I love old school football
The chiefs got their revenge in week 15. They clobbered the Seahawks at Arrowhead. Seattle then lost to the Broncos in the final week and lost the division title. Seattle just needed to win one of those last 2 games to win the division. They were heavily favored to beat the Chiefs again, but they always struggled at Arrowhead.
+Joe D true....never understood what it was about Arrowhead that always seemed to give the Hawks fits there
You forget how underrated Kenny easly and Dave brown are
The Chiefs:exists
Dave Brown:I am about to intercept this mans whole throw
Watched that game on my radio.
It's funny how they talk about the four pick sixes for the first half of the video, and then talk about a third string quarterback who threw 16 passes lol. At least that dude got to make 10 times more than an average salary for a couple years.
That time when you remember that the Seahawks used to be in the AFC back in the day and that's how we ended up against Kansas City twice a season
That will be a tough record to top!!
83 season and the 84 season could of been back to back sb's......They were the team
When I learn of guys like Sandy, I always think of the Moonlight Graham scene in Field of Dreams. "Son, if I'd only gotten to be a doctor for 5 minutes, now that would have been a tragedy." Sports and achievement is important, but it's not everything.
These Jerseys+Helmet loked pretty sick these days
Good story deeper than expected
Sandy seems like a nice guy and not a greedy guy.
George Michael Sports Machine moment lol . You know who you are.
This was a great secondary. This was not just one fluke game. Interceptions that year by player. Kenny Easley 10, Dave Brown 8, John Harris 6, Keith Simpson 4, Terry Jackson 4, Terry Taylor 3.
Dave brown was a outstanding cornerback for the seahawks it's messed up he ain't in the Hall of fame yet
Forgot to put them in my fantasy football lineup that week...
That week practice, KC QB's were practicing with blindfolds.
Andy Yang
No. Their Receivers were in Practice BLUE lol...
I had Seahawks defense on the bench in my fantasy league that day.
This is in 1984 how did you have fantasy back then?
TCFUsquad Paper
man I miss their old unis and logo
When you're on Rookie mode against the CPU
hey sandy you made the NFL , you da man
The original LOB!
He’s holding the picture upside down
GO HAWKS thanks to that 3rd stinger for helping us set a record
Someones a bandwagon
Legion of Boom hasn't equalled this record, and in this age of throwing the ball, wow.
Rich Nelson because when you throw the ball 90% of the time you get tired
You can tell it was a disastrous day when 3 quarterbacks threw 4 pick-6s.
that was the first NFL game I ever attended.
Me and my two brothers were at that game, Best Seahawk home game ever. 45-0.
