Outro- The Fix by Aldous Young
I feel like with the up and coming college season it is now the perfect time to bring back the 10 years ago college football series
I was thinking the same thing
Here here!
the 2007 College football video is one of my favorites he'd done. I would love this
2014 was an elite year for CFB. The first year of the playoff, Dak Prescott and Mississippi State, Ezekiel Ellliott and Ohio States national title with Cardale Jones, and more. That season got me hooked on CFB.
@@ilovemanunited6179 Baylor fan here...great season but bein one spot away from the playoffs was a pretty painful experience. Even worse when we lost to Michigan State in the Cotton Bowl. Just glad bama didn't win the championship that year
Damn, I’m getting old. Feels like yesterday.
Ikr, cant believe it I have alot of memories from that year and it doesn't seem so long ago
Same! It only feels like 5 years ago for me
Crazy this don’t feel like 10 years ago
Right? All the ppl we watched growing up are all retiring now
Feels like 15 as an eagles fan, so much change (nfl/real life)
Life’s a trip boys hope we all end up happy af genuinely
Russel Wilson’s “ah shucks” clap after he threw the worst interception of all time makes me giggle
@gnarlyshark42 his body language made it seem like he overthrew a pass on 3rd down and they had to settle for a field goal attempt in a preseason game. Bro didn't act like he just lost the Super Bowl.
Made Marshawn laugh too. What coulda been. We coulda avoided another of Brady’s rings if not for Pete Carroll’s hubris.
The fact deflategate was 10 years ago is messing with my head😂
Glad I'm not the only one.
@@rampageTGI thinks it’s the fact that Brady was suspended 3 years after the fact contributes to the mind fuckery.
@@Bill_Woo Where's the proof Brady is?
It's only nine years old right now but once Jan 2025 comes around then yeah.. it's stamped as ten years ago by then.
10 years ago & I’m still haunted by Pete Carroll’s decision 🤦🏽
2014 was really a decade ago…
Just wait until 2015 and 2016 is ten years old 😢
I was 16 turning 17 man time flies 😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨
Time makes fools of us all
I was 21 in 2014! Great drinking memories. Cheers to another decade 🍻💯
@@ArkelChatman45 I was 9 about to turn 10 in 2014. Now I’m a sophomore in college 😭
That 2014 draft certainly was stacked, Mike Evans, Beckham Jarvis Landry, Davante Adams and Aaron Donald, Cj Moseley, Khalil Mack, Demarcus Lawrence
Bro tried to sneak Demarcus Lawrence in there lol
@@nateguerra319you’re a casual
@@bub6010 bro tried to sneak Demarcus Lawrence in there cmon
Clowney and Lawrence have had 10 year careers, so..........
Can’t believe you didn’t put Zack Martin but also Lawrence is still a great player one of the best run defenders in the NFL and he’s light years better than Clowney 😂
Bro I remember the 2008 and version of this and now it’s the 2014 version now. Time really dose fly
Yes it dose
we gonna need a kto 10 years ago video soon 😭
Reading this comment made my head hurt
How can a dose of medication fly?
It do it do
The NFL from 2014-18 makes me feel nostalgic AF. I became an NFL fan in 2014 when I was 9 and I sometimes can't help but reminisce about the mid to late 2010s. Can't believe 2014 was 10 years ago.
Same
Same. I became a fan around 2012 at around the same age, and I VIVIDLY remember the 2014 season from start to finish. Now that I think about it, 2014 may have been my favorite year of the NFL. Forgot how eventful that season was. The 2010s overall were a great decade for the NFL.
@@xxpsychicmindxx Facts. I'm never gonna forget 2014 either. There's some stars who back then I didn't really care for but now I miss them like Prime Dez
I’ve been watching since 2000, but anything before 2020 is nostalgia for me. It’s been so many changes throughout. It’s very few people from the 2000s still active in the league now. So many of my favorite players are retired or 7+ years into their careers already. Where did the time go??
I became a fan in 2010. I remember being 8 and watching the 2014 season, and the Saints wasting Drew Brees by having a terrible defense.
The no call on the Cowboys pass interference in the Wild Card game against the Lions led to Dez dropped it. Dez dropped it led to the legendary choke job. The Packers legendary choke job led to the Malcolm Butler interception. So in summary, the Lions cost the Seahawks the Super Bowl.
they did call the pass interference. Then they picked it up and moved the ball back. I don't remember a time in history where they've called the penalty, moved the ball and then moved it back because they decided minutes later to pick it up.
You mean the refs costed them the Super Bowl
Cant believe he glossed over the Lions controversy
@@verververververver I was coming here to say that, blows my mind that he didn't even pretend to mention it
Cant believe people still believe the Lions got screwed there. The ball hit Hitchens before he made contact with the receiver. After a tip or contact with the ball PI is not the correct call
i remember i used to watch these to see what the nfl was like 10 years ago now it’s just memories lmao
Bro…
This was the best video in this 10 Years Ago series. The way you organized and presented makes me wonder why ESPN hasn’t given you a call yet. They could learn something from you.
If he got hired by ESPN he would either carry or get ruined by ESPN
Skips take on Johnny Manziel will forever be the most hilarious prediction ever 🤣🤣🤣
His crowning moment for LeBron hating
That skip is a famous sports analyst is a damning indictment for US sports coverage
Ravens Patriots divisional round game from that season is the most underrated game in NFL history. It’s quite possibly my all time favorite game as a NE fan
Kinda crazy to say considering yall won a SB down 28-3 (As a saints fan I thank you for that btw)
I’ll never forget the double pass from Edelman to amendola. I was a sophomore in college streaming the game on my shitty laptop with a case or cheap beer and went fucking wild when it happened. Better times lol 😂
That's crazy because it's quite possibly my least favorite game as a Baltimore fan!
But fr, I still think about this game often, Belichick with the masterclass of knowing the rules and finding loopholes. Gotta give him credit.
The Belichick-Brady combination really was a perfect storm for 20 years.
Marshawn in 2013-14 will live in my head rent free until I die
It's still crazy that 2014 was 10 years ago
the fact that Watt had 3 offensive TDs, a defensive TD, and 20+ sacks but still didn’t win mvp is the biggest theft in sports history
Ya he had two shots at it. Adrian Peterson and Aaron Rodgers stole it
Yeah, it’s fucking crazy if that doesn’t get you MVP literally nothing does on defense 😂
Watt was Refrigerator Perry and Lawrence LT Taylor all rolled into one that season. I suppose the high emphasis on offense unfairly overlooked an anomaly that season. 2014 also was a changing of the guard from football back to baseball as my favorite sport after a two decade stretch due to the controversies, especially CTE, and a newly entered peak of Ken Burns documentary interest that lasted 5 years with an emphasis on baseball, jazz, and country music.
hands down
@@davidalexander8996nobody cares
Should do a video about Matt Forte, he was the 4th leading receiver this year as a RB. One of the most versatile players ever. Best receiving back of all time.
@scottchapin5594 I'm a Bears fan who always felt Forte was underappreciated, and am in no way trying to diminish how impressive it is for a running back to catch 100+ passes like he did that year, or his track record of being as consistently very good/great as he was in his career. That said, it would be hard to support an argument for him as the best receiving back ever when he barely cracks the top 10 for career receiving yards in the category. Incidentally, I remember that 2014 Bears team under weakling Marc Trestman being such a disaster.
I think that would be a great idea as he is absolutely one of the most underappreciated players of this era. Are you perhaps a bit younger & more so going by what you have been exposed to, so far?
Probably want to check out a guy named Roger Craig. Zero intent f/me to brush back your assertion, as I can tell via the way you communicate that you know the game at a much higher level than most...
And would appreciate what you take in and learn with Roger Craig, Marcus Allen, LaDainian Tomlinson & Marshall Faulk...
I'd be curious to get your feedback on the players if you decide to research them a bit and compare.
Regardless, I'm all for a video solely on Matt Forte and like to see him getting his due from the media and fellow knowledgeable fans.
@@thespeedracer5772 I'm a Lions fan who absolutely thought Matt Forte was severely underrated but when I saw he was 4th in receiving I said there is no way that's true but sure enough he was 4th in receptions, not yards, which made sense for what they had at the time lol
Marshall Faulk just entered the room.😊
McCaffrey >
Every year I wait for this video to come out. Definitely the best series from the channel.
I feel like he should have talked about how the Cowboys got away with PI vs the Lions in the WC. Also a fluke happened to every team in that cycle where the no call happened and the Cowboys won, then the Dez no catch happened, then the comeback by the Seahawks vs the Packers, then the passing at the 1
Love KTO but he hates the lions lol
The league always screws the Lions.
As a Cowboys fan, I remember that play, and I said that was pass interference lol.
Even if it was PI, Hitchens was facemasked, so the penalties would have negated. Lions didn't get screwed, they just screwed themselves
@@Captain_Neckbeardbecause they’re a joke of a crybaby ass franchise that deserves it
I’ve been watching these since 8th grade and now I’m a sophomore in college it’s become a yearly tradition for me lol
I remember back in 2014, I loved watching Odell Beckham Jr play. I'm actually a Saints fan, but something about OBJ just really made me fall in love with him as a player. Very sad to see how his career turned out.
Fym he has a ring
Big homie at @00:30 was getting down
Dude's a better dancer than me and I'm a little salty about it
This is by far your best video production wise. So clean. So many fantastic graphics. Lots of work went in and it's noticeable. Thank you for these. 💙
Yes, 2014 was ten years ago. 2024-2014 = 10. Great video KTO as usual.
Glad we still got some mathematicians out here
people acting surprised is so cringe.
@@Sakattack2023 for real
Really started getting into football when I was about 10 which was this szn… looking forward to this video for the nostalgia
the fact that 2016 is gonna be 10 years ago in 2 years is terrifying.
Fr bro the fact that 2014 was 10 years ago is crazy 2020 was a literal Time Machine 😂
The fact that we'll reach a point where the first 'nfl 10 years ago' video will become 10 years old
The 2014 season was pretty significant for me as it was my senior year of high school and the last year I would follow the NFL week by week on a consistent basis. I have been watching your videos for sometime now just to reclaim nostalgia. Thanks.
I love how Skip Bayless is ALWAYS wrong about draft prospects 😂😂
Big Ben having arguably the best two game stretch for a quarterback ever just never gets talked about lol
That "I'm thankful" line got me lmao
I have to say this is one of the best put together, professional and well crafted videos I’ve seen on YT for 10 years.
Bro this is one of my favorite Nfl seasons EVER!!!!! I will ALWAYS remember this season as the storyline’s surrounding Brady earlier in the year where everyone thought he was done just for him to go on and shred the rest of the Nfl the rest of this season and then win the Super Bowl against the Legion of Boom! Also thank you Malcolm Butler! You will never be forgotten! Also the Patriots vs Ravens divisional games is still one of my favorite Patriots games of all time, that game was so thrilling!
I'm so happy the Patriots suck now!!
Just a couple of tweaks. Brady didn't win it (nor did Butler). Ricardo Lockette won it for him. Number 83, the one who said, "This is the only significant moment of my life. Plus, millions are counting on me." That was followed up with "I don't want to catch the ball. You can have it. I'm not going to try." JBH.
@@_Shadoh_They wont suck for long, thanks to a missed fg vs the giants last season they drafted this guy called drake maye. He’s like a mobile Tom Brady haha
I have been thinking about this lately. It’s really been 10 years since 2014. So much has changed. Lost so much and gained a lot in different ways.
Here’s to the next 10 years being better than the last ten years for all of us.
The best video of every NFL season. Can't believe we are here finally
@KTO this video really reminded me of my age.
I just wanted to also say that I have been subscribed and watching your videos for quite some time now, and the quality in your videos has never changed. It’s a crazy realization that I grew up with this channel as well. Thank you!
Im not even a cowboys fan anymore but I hope my grandchildren someday learn about how good 2014 Dez Bryant was
I can't believe Adrian Peterson beat his kids with a Nintendo 😂
Pete with an all time sell lol. It’s legendary. No one alive to remember it will forget it. That choke will last a millennia
I always love this series, I gives us a time where football will never same again in the future. Keep up the series KTO, I love it!
Can't believe it's been 10 years since 2014 and my Colts being in the AFC Championship game. Really wish we got to see Andrew Luck's career playout without injuries man, I just hope Anthony Richardson can avoid the injury bug because I truly think he can bring us back
After the way Colts fans disrespected Luck. They don't deserve a good QB. Trash fanbase.
I love the graphics you put into this video KTO! Nice work! Great to see you getting better and better with every new video you post
Every year you make these videos and I feel even older when it’s years I vividly remember
As a Vikings fan who has lived in Washington for half my life, I remember being so excited for one of my teams to win. I remember telling my dad it would be a quick throw to Lynch for the game winner. They threw it, and we all know what happened. I was only 4 at the time, so I cried all night long. I’ve lived in South Carolina during their Super Bowl loss, and Georgia the next year. For three years straight I lived in the states where the losing Super Bowl team was. Crazy.
The Panthers were the first team to win the NFC south back to back.
With a 7-8-1 record
Well done man! This was a great watch!
2012-2014 were the years when I started really following the nfl closely. Great memories
this video might have been the greatest piece of football cinema ive ever watched😭
Smh children. I like the video though. It was very informative
@@macabree5856 whats better
I'm still miffed we didn't get Packers v. Patriots in Super Bowl 49. Aaron Rodgers v. Tom Brady would've been a spectacle 😭
To be honest the Packers were so fucking lucky but also we could’ve gotten a Cowboys versus Patriots Super Bowl because the same season the Cowboys literally beat Seattle in Seattle but Aaron Rodgers versus Brady would’ve been fucking awesome 😂
You know you’re old when you can remember every moment in a KTO throwback video
As a Broncos fan, I appreciate the montage of Seahawks fans in pain
Couldn’t agree more!
Same as a Packers fan lol
Same as a Saints fan even tho I did want them to beat brady that year tho and I even thought deep down they were handing it to marshawn again
Imagine being a panthers fan and watching your qb not dive for a fumble…
🙄i mean it’s kinda automatic🤷🏻♂️
This is one of your best videos - it’s cool seeing you get better at these over the course of time.
Always such a shame seeing AB. Easily one of the best two-three receivers of his era, only to have his legacy tarnished by erratic behavior. That dude was something special.
The real question is gonna be if his off-field issues hurt his canton case (because he's a lock otherwise)
@@docholladay13no he’s a HOF pick💯
He’s a HOF whether people hate it or not!💯🐐
Lions vs Cowboys DPI call flag pickup was brutal. We need a whole video on that. The cowboys should have never even gone to lambeau
I still think the Cowboys to be fair I think it literally touched Hitchins first but yeah, I could’ve changed everything It’s always crazy to think about like what if one call was changed everything is changed. 😂
All you need to do is watch the reverse angle to see that Pettigrew grabbing Hitchen’s face mask is what caused the “DPI” to happen in the first place.
At the worst it’s offsetting penalties.
this is definitely the most memorable nfl season of my lifetime as a 21 year old, can't lie.
1:57 the beat goes crazy lol
I saw this comment as soon as the beat started. Impeccable timing!
2014 such an important year for many reasons in the NFL. Its crazy to see how much controversy surrounded the game in the off-season. Although I had been watching religiously for a few years now, this is when I started reading reports, interviews, TMZ articles to keep up with the off the field storylines.
Now I loved every part of this video. Remembering how great demarco murray was to start the season, watching the Manziel era end b4 it even began, and especially watching my Seahawks thrive in the NFC behind their defense and young Russell.
Than an overwhelming feeling hit me. This was the Malcolm Butler pick SB. This was the worst day in my sports fandom life. I paused this video about 3 times cuz I didnt want to see the ending but you absolutely crushed this video so I had to at least let it ride to the end
2014 was a decade ago man we're getting old
For few months this year the Brian Hoyer Browns looked like one of the best teams in the NFL
Please keep this series going. It really gets me hyped for the season. Oh and btw, Here We Go Brownies Here We Go!
For a team that did absolutely nothing, yall act like yall winning a sb 😂. We all know the browns are one mistake from being the accident waiting to happen.
@The-Black-Militant I know I’m a fan of a crappy team and yes it’s seems like every good season we had it was one mistake that screwed us over ie the the fumble or the one that’s killing me now and that’s the Watson trade, but I’m not acting like I won a Super bowl. I live very close to Steeler Country so it’s kinda nice to be able to know someone even if they are a TH-cam personality that’s a Browns fan. So let me support my do nothing team and I promise ya I wont act like I won a Super Bowl until we do… if we do… ok I promise I won’t act like we won a Super Bowl.
@jasont.dingess4985 I like the way you honest about it. Respect.
i never been this early for a kto vid to drop
26:47 Rare close up footage of someone's soul leaving their body. I think that moment actually changed Sherman's entire future bc he, as well as Seattle as a team, was never the same. It was a microcosm that reverberated to the point of breaking an entire organization.
- Players on defense and offense became divided, with the same happening between players and coaching staff.
- It was the beginning of the end of the Legion of Boom.
- Lynch left the team.
- Sherman was no longer as dominant as he had been.
- Seattle hasn't made another SB
It's really wild to catch the exact moment when everything started falling apart live and have someone's facial expression and body language personify it so perfectly.
Never showed up to a KTO upload this fast🔥🔥
Sameee!
Man this takes me back. Very well put together video. Thanks for the hit of nostalgia!
Simpler times, man. Simpler times....
I was really 8 years old when the 2014 season started. Crazy how time flies & I'm off to college. As.a Pats fan, this season was the first one I truly can recall in detail and a season I won't forget. the OBJ catch in particular was something everyone tried to emulate or even replicate on the school playground. I miss those days.
Dez caught it in terms of common sense, but he didn't catch it according to the nonsensical NFL rules of what a catch was
all rules should be common sense atp
Oh well, the packers drove right down the field on that next possession anyways
Packers woulda won anyway
You are 100% correct, but it caused the Cowboys to lose in the playoffs, which is a cause all of mankind can get behind
@@queenofthesalt5199 tbh cowboys hate is getting weird. its a franchise that doesn't win anymore. people used to hate bc it was a dynasty, now people hate just to hate. this happens w no other franchise.
These are my fav type of videos from you
Picked up flag against Dallas in the Wild Card is still the worst call in NFL history
Seattle lost most of their starting secondary by the 4th quarter. Making it gravy for Brady/Edelman to run comeback routes. The real problem was Darell Bevel, who cost the Seahawks 2 games in the regular season by throwing the football too much and allowing the Chargers and Cowboys to wear down the defense. Of course in the Super Bowl, Bevel went to the pass from the 1, with Carroll's OK and a pass meant for a TE, went to a skinny, little used receiver using a play that Browner had seen 100 times to Zach Miller.
Now you gotta do the rise and fall of OBJ that catch caused a phenomenon of dyed blond, high top fades
Not really a fall for OBJ
This is the season where I truly became a fan of the NFL. 2013 is where I had began watching and learning about the game but 2014 is the season where I was glued to my screen every Sunday, Monday, and Thursday, no matter who was playing. Watching Kyle Orton lead my ragtag Buffalo squad to 9 wins (the bar was in hell) with exhilarating wins and crushing losses to boot thrilled me as an 11 year old. Now here I am at 21, long removed from the days of Kyle Orton, getting to watch Josh Allen every week.
Part of me wonders what it would have been like to have a Josh Allen-esque player on the team at a younger age. If I was that entertained by Orton I would have lost my mind for Allen
Nah, the real playoff controversy was the ref picking up the flag and saying there was no pass interference in the Lions Cowboys game
It was the right call to pickup the flag, Hitchen’s was being pulled by the face mask which is what made him stumble and “interfere”.
Damn it’s crazy these stories were 10 years ago, makes me feel old. Awesome content as always KTO
JJ Watt was so robbed of the MVP award this year.
Eh, Rodgers was gonna win regardless🤷🏽♂️
The 2014 NFL draft was a huge moment where I’m from, seeing a hometown kid like Clowney go #1 overall meant everything to anyone who watched him at south pointe high school then go on to USC and dominate

@@Grievous_ hey, how are the Pats doing rn?
Oh...
@@IAmAlpharius20 Don’t know why you care, my team has 6 bum, and hey if you’re a Seahawks fan, glad to hear that Malcolm Butler is still effecting you and the bum Seahawks to this day!
I’m happy you said it at the two minute mark. We’re coming up to the ten year mark of the nfl ten years ago series. I’ve watched since 2017, I’m happy for your success bro, you deserve it
That 2014 NFL season capped off what had been a very chaotic year in my life. I was living in Ukraine at the time, and moved to Donetsk from Kiev just two days before Maidan became violent, then later found myself in the middle of a warzone. Relocated to Kiev by leaving on one of the last trains to Kiev out of Donetsk, only to find more pandemonium by getting into a mix-up with one of the Ukrainian neo-nazi militias. Then moved out to Lviv to work an IT job that ended up becoming a major scam, only to have to leave there after a couple of months when my girlfriend's mother died. The Pats going from looking like the dynasty was over and Brady was washed up to then dominating the league and eventually winning the trophy in probably the best Super Bowl ever made it all worth it. I'll never forget that year. It's crazy to think it's been a decade since then.
Hope your life is in a better place now.
A better Super Bowl was at the end of the 2016 season The Greatest Game Ever Played 🎉
Am guessing you have left Ukraine at this point
2:10 I’ve been watching your videos for 8 years, always been my comfort yt channel. Never change homie
Lions 2014 wc got hosed by refs lose to cowboys, cowboys got to Green Bay and Dez dropped it, packers blow lead vs Seahawks, then Malcom butler
Someone said it, it’s time to bring this category of video back for college ball too!! Awesome stuff as always man!
That pass call is the most overhated play call in sports history
It is not. Give Marshawn the ball, you have a fucking timeout
@@Ryan-qv9se when everyone knows the move you’re about to make, most importantly your opponent, and you make it, it’s generally not a good move. Carroll wouldve been hailed a genius for thinking of a pass call on that play if Butler didn’t make a great play
@@alexgrissom3513 that's wildly overthinking it. Read what I said. You have Marshawn Lynch and a goddamn timeout, who cares if they know you're running it when you've shoved the ball down defenses throats at the goal line for the last 3 years, and especially why get cute against bill belichick? Hindsight is everything but even if that pass worked out, guarantee people would still be saying "holy shit I can't believe they didn't just run it". Must not have watched many hawks games dude
T his needs way more views. One of the best edited videos that I have ever seen easily.
27:33 not even a mention of controversial PI pick up of flag in Lions Cowboys wildcard game
No matter how many times I see that superbowl ending it always gives me chills everytime I see it
Man 2014 was 10 years ago wtffffff
Man that dez catch crushes me.. as I kept watching the replay. Literally didn't even worry because I was like oh no question three steps and a lunge
Jesus loves you
What a great video man, been here since day 1. KTO drops nothing but bangers
DEZ CAUGHT THE BALL
Best feeling ever getting off work and seeing a new KTO video dropped
4 views in 4 seconds, KTO fell off :(
Never understood the purpose of this
This comment gave me aids
Funny and original‼️
😔😔😔
Go outside, it’s nice out
I use to get johnny manziel and baker Mayfield confused for soooooo long hahaha definitely thought baker was gonna have a manziel like career but im actually glad fo see his ressuragnce as of the last 2-3yrs
Odell’s rookie year literally changed the trajectory of the NFL. Kids everywhere saw that catch and started doing one handers and circus catches like crazy. OBJ was the catalyst for all the crazy WR talent coming out of college today
Dez caught it
You forgot about the best receiver of the 2014 draft Mike Evans
KTO, your video content and scripts are the best on TH-cam. 100%!! I want you to keep getting better so I mean this will all due respect and with growth in mind. Your reading cadence comes across as choppy. Like there’s a comma in between every third or fourth word. If you can smooth out your delivery, the sky is the limit. Keep growing and keep up the great work!
Great video, as always! Also, as a Pats fan, I always love talking about how that season ended.
