- Episode 4: "Revolution" (original air date: 10/7/2009) looks at how, amidst a backdrop of upheaval in American society, the AFL generates its own upheaval in the sports world: after its champions are soundly defeated in the first two Super Bowls, the league gains respectability on the shoulders of Joe Namath, who, after his Jets defeat Oakland for the 1968 league title, fulfills a brash guarantee to defeat NFL champ Baltimore in Super Bowl III, regarded as one of the greatest upsets in sports history.

From the Afl stars, Madden, Namath, Len Dawson, you will never be forgotten.
If you watch the Joe Namath episode of A Football Life, it goes a bit more into detail of why and how Joe knew he could beat the Colts' vaunted defense. Watching their game film, he saw that they always did a certain thing when they lined up a certain way, so the Jets' plan for calling plays was that in the huddle, Namath would just call the formation and the snap count, then when they would line up at the line of scrimmage, Namath would see how the Colts' defense was lined up, and would call the play from there.
That's why he won the MVP in that Super Bowl. His play-calling and control of the time of possession was what won that game.
I am a NYJ fan since 1965. I still love the AFL.
There is something about Charlie Jones and the AFL...perfect fit...I miss those days... exciting games...
:) He and Don Criqui are my favorite announcers. Pat Summerall is the greatest, of course.
As a Bills fan and an American Patriot I have all the respect in the world for Bob Kalsu. Players like him and Pat Tillman are the true heroes
@@heydudedolfan13 sick bro
You’re right about that!!!
Both are American hero.
Pat Tillman hated America lmao you don't know what you're talking about
@@williamdiemert9866 True!!!
This is the definitive series on the AFL-NFL merge, and the rise of football in America
Agreed!!!
I seriously got into the NFL in mid to late 70s. I was inspired by AFL "little train that could" underdog story so I mostly gravitated to watching AFC games on NBC. There was time when AFC dominated in Superbowl wins up and I hated NFC. 50 years after the merger there doesn't seem to be that conference rivalry that used to exist. Kind of miss those days.
I believe one big reason for that is interconference games. Similar to how Major League Baseball ruined itself by having interleague play (now all season long)...it took away from some of the magic and mystique. Free agency also is another reason for a lack of that rivalry feeling too.
@@willmack5909i think it's more that every generation younger than the Boomers wasn't alive or remembers the AFL so there's no reason to care about that rivalry. I was born in 89 and never even thought to hate the AFC, I just care more about the NFC because I'm a Dallas fan and mostly watched NFC games
We should stoke the flames of rivalry between the conferences, use the media for what it's best at: divide the people and get them angry.
Hey y’all I don’t know how many times I’ve seen this. Every time makes me feel so proud. Go Jets, from Houston Oilers fan, Go AFL !
Not much said about Oilers early success in the league
Sorry quite a bit in episode 1
The January 1968 Super Bowl game between Colts and Jets was some what ante climatic for me. It was the 1967 preseason matches between NFL and AFL clubs that cinched it for me that the AFL had come of age when they consistently beat some of those NFL clubs in exhibition. I know they didn't count in the standings, but the fact that they - the AFL - could stand toe to toe with their elder statesmen of the NFL was a remarkable step in their development.
ante climatic = ANTICLIMACTIC.
You mean January 1969!!!
It was Jan 69, but yes I agree 100% with what you said
I was so grateful for this whole documentary being on TH-cam 5 years ago when I was bed-ridden recovering from a very painful knee replacement surgery. Really helped me get through that tough and frustrating time when I couldnt even sleep some nights because of the pain. Thanks!
How's your knee doing now? I might need that sooner rather than later.
Crazy now you can see it again during these hard times
i've watched the first three installments of this series and just finished watching this one...this is an outstanding documentary...i really am enjoying it...thanks so much for the upload.
I love it.
I loved watching the old AFL. Sid Gillman brought the wide open offenses, and it was much more colorful than the NFL. The Chiefs were my team growing up.
Seems like 95 percent of Kansas City residents know what "65 toss power trap" is all about.
@@rockvilleraven And the other 5% ought to know.
Sid Gillman wasn't the only head coach of the Chargers to bring a potent offence style. Remember Don Coryall.
@@tonyarceneaux286 I remember Coryell but Gilman was the first.
@@slundgr In fact, Coryell is listed as a direct descendant of the Sid Gillman coaching tree, so Don was really just an extension of Gillman's offense.
Cookie Gilchrist was awesome and should be in the HOF ...
He could run, catch and block.
Apparently he could kick and tackle too
He must have made the voters mad at some point... clearly a Hall of Famer got to agree with you on that one...
AFL until I die! What an EXCEPTIONAL era of professional football!!!
Oh yeah, Charlie Jones reminds me of the Houston Oilers games in the glory years of the Run and Shoot.
Charlie Jones reminds me of Jim Simpson...both were great and underrated...
Tough to understand Charlie Jones sometimes, Ron Jay was actually Hoyle Granger
Love the legal clotheslines and spearing
Cookie Gilchrist was a beast. A Big back with speed. Straight out of high school to the pros.
Wow, lots of history , of da 1960s. N da san diego chargers, da AFL, comes a long way. Im glad they saved some films, now , its like da blast , from da past. I met ,Bambi, when Robert Kennedy, came to our hometown in san Ysidro, Cali.
Man those old AFL games were great! Joe Namath... Otis Taylor... hundreds of great players...
Before Pat Tillman, there was......Bob Kalsu.
True!!!
Both are American hero
The Christmas of 1968 I got a vibrating football game. It had the Bears and the Cardinals. Then, the Jets won the Super Bowl. Best Christmas, ever. We watched the game on an old Capeheart t.v.
The players were initially a generic two solid colors (one was yellow, can't remember the other color). of course half the fun then, was painting the players in the colors of one's desired teams. The one player that was designed to supposedly be able to kick a small football shaped piece of cotton. The kicking leg was cocked back, then you released it. Truthfully, it didn't even get airborne, if I'm, not mistaken. Still, it was something a sports loving kid like myself, would spend an hour or so easily, watching the players be vibrated into the most entertaining scenarios-like the dosey-dou, where two players would get locked in a perpetual motion, usually a circular one.
The golden age of football in America. That’s coming from a Canadian who has to watch C.F.L.
@@remmymafia3889 remmy I can relate to every thing you mentioned
The other team was red. Tutor electric football..I played it for hours. Great memories
15:30 Big Cat Ernie Ladd and Chief Wahoo McDaniel. AFL heroes who doubled as great wrestlers.
Both belong in the WWE Hall of Fame and Pro football Hall of Fame.
I used to love watching Ernie Ladd tangle with the Junkyard Dog in Mid South Wrestling and seeing Chief Wahoo McDaniel wrestle in Mid South too.
The face of the Raider logo was modeled after B+ movie star Randolph Scott. The likeness is certainly there.
Heidi.... I was a kid in NYC watching that game. I was 9 and had enough sense to grab a radio and tune into the end of the game. Another thing - the Raider office staff worker. She's on the West Coast - Heidi wouldn't have started for another 3 hours - A matter of fact - if she's in Oakland, the game would have been blacked out.....
My grandpa died in 1990. He was a life long Colts fan and when I was a kid, I asked him about Super Bowl III. My uncle Dave grabbed me, took me out of the room and said “Don’t ask him about it.” When he died on June 3, 1990, he died never talking about that game ever again. He hated Joe Namath, he hated the Jets, he hated the American Football League. The NFL was the real football league. My uncles said those 10 teams full of losers didn’t deserve to join the real league.
Meanwhile, my uncle Al was an Oilers fan who went to every game until they moved to Tennessee. After that, he never watched a NFL game ever again. He died two years ago still angry at Bud Adams for stealing his team and refused to ever go to or watch a Texans game. My grandpa and my uncles were so much alike.
I love this comment but its bittersweet at the same time
I understand,13 yr old colt fan during Super Bowl 3,Colts carpetbagged 2 Indy,2 h--l with them.Yeah its a business. My twin brother was a Packerbacker. AT least his team should stayput.
@@ballingliketheraptors7041 True!!!!
@@keithmotsinger918 Reading about the Colts move in 1984 years later, Baltimore Deserved to Lose the Colts, and why, the city of Baltimore no longer supported the team, and the main reason why, because Baltimore was Stupid enough not to build a new stadium for the Colts, no wonder they moved to Indianapolis!!!!
I’m glad Lombardi had to watch an AFL team win the Super Bowl.
Twice!
Love that old 🎶music
For Lenny and those guys to simply want to thank Joe for his triumphant victory, man, that says something..I sit here watching this, wondering how my father must’ve felt as a young 13-14 year old, after the victory. Probably, how I felt after the giants did it in 07-08…man…..
18:17
RIP Larry Eisenhauer
One small correction: Garland Boyette was the first black middle linebacker in history. He played the position for the Houston Oilers in 1967, one year before the great Willie Lanier played the position for Kansas City in 1968.
this is awesome thankyou
I love the opening intro to the show, but, did anyone else notice how the Cincinnati Bengals have about a half a second nod, in the opening montage??? LOL
Well, the Bengals of course had just the final two years of the AFL's 10 years. They were just a fledgling franchise, I think 7-21 in those two years. But John Madden wrote later that he thought Paul Brown did the greatest job of coaching an expansion team, as the Bengals were often within 10-14 points even if they lost.
They don't get to play like this anymore. Sad.
It seemed Poetic that Joe Namath and the NEW YORK JETS would be the AFL's Super Bowl Breakthrough, as it was a year later when Lamar Hunt's KANSAS CITY CHIEFS won the last AFL game.
Super Bowl 3 an upset, Super Bowl 4 a total victory
Tim Russert probably had no idea that he would die shortly after making this video.
You’re right about that!!!
At 56:17 we see Don Shinnick, RLB of the Colts and a veteran of the late 50s championship teams, congratulating Namath for quite some time for a post-game handshake. He must have had a lot to say in admiration of Namath. And he might have been the only Colt who was not in shock. It was his last game.
Interesting how Madden mentioned Billy Martin. I always thought that Billy and Al Davis were similar. They were both strategic thinkers and were able to get the best out of the teams they coached, despite each having plenty of flaws.
God this mini series was awesome!!
i loved joe he was so cool
Joe Namath Guarantee a win! I would agree that is the greatest upset in football history. Colts 5 turnovers Greatest thing the Jets ever did in the history on the team have only been to the conference Championship 3 times since then.
The Greatest Upset in Super Bowl History, what can I say!!!!
Thanks for the uploads!
I know Right!!!!!
I believe that was the lady named Morgana, who came on MLB ballparks to hug baseball players that hugged and kissed the Oilers Don Floyd.
STEELERS MAKE IT TOUGH by APOLOGETIX a great football song
A lot of times, if not most, a football game can be won or lost by the bounce of the ball, an interception at a crucial moment, a fumble, a missed wide open receiver (Jimmy Orr), a pass inside the 5-yard line that should have been caught for a touchdown, but intercepted after the pass bounced off the Colt's receivers shoulder pads and the ball went straight into the previously beaten Jet db. But on any given Sunday, when 11-men line up against each other, anything can happen, including huge upsets. Man for man and coach for coach the Colt's had the Jets beat, and beat bad. The 19-point betting against the Jets was not by accident or by NFL operators in the gambling industry. If the Colts and Jets had played the next day, I believe another AFL beat-down would have happened. Earl Morrall, the starting QB of the Colt's was that years League MVP. A veteran quarterback with excellent play calling and passing skills, Morrall had led the Colt's to a 12-2 regular season, not counting the playoffs. The Colt's had beaten several NFL teams in this 68 season good enough to hand the Jets a beat-down. At that point in time most of the better players were in the NFL and a big talent issue favored the NFL. But remember that old football saying; when 11-men line up against each other, anything can happen! This is what happened that given Sunday! The Colt's had one turn-over after another, something that they had not done all season long. The Jets had none! This was where the game was lost for the mighty Colt's. Baltimore had beaten the Vikings in post season , as well as beating down the Cleveland Browns to get to the Super Bowl. Either of those two had the ups on the Jets. Man for man, the Jet. didn't match up with Minnesota or Cleveland. The fierce defense of Baltimore had shut down one team after another in scoring that season. I will always believe that Baltimore should have won Super Bowl 3, but the turnovers/breaks favored the Jets, and this factor would determine the outcome.
Joe brought more women to sports than the WNBA and Women’s soccer
NFL owners never stopped holding a grudge against Al Davis for numerous reasons(suing NFL to move in 1981/82) didn't help,but it all went back to 1965 to 1966 war for players and it manifested itself on the field over the next 2 decades as the Raiders always complained loudly about officiating and tbh,decisions seem to always go against the Raiders.1972 Immaculate reception playoff game comes to mind as the ball hit Fuqua and the refs where fearful of fan reaction in Pittsburgh if they nullified the td so they allowed it Madden still whines about it.
Namath got wrecked by injuries after SB3 season but holy sh*t could he throw a football the 1st superstar QB that ushered in the modern age.Today's younger fans forget how talented and great Joe Namath was, he retired when I was 3 but these documentaries and NFL films highlights +YT videos are great at showing how tremendous the players were during this era 1966 to 1986 imo the NFL'S best.
yea the raiders always get jobbed by the officiating crew... its terrible... immaculate reception... rob lyttle fumble... tuck rule... index card.... inexplicable bull shit
Don't forget Otis Taylor stepping out of bounds in the 1969 AFL Championship, if I rmember right Len Dawson admitted that we probably would have won that game if it were called correctly. The 1974 AFC Championship game had the only offensive tripping call all season. It was a bad call that negated a play that set up the Raiders on the goal line. How different things would have been if these calls would have went the correct way.
@@fockewulf4409 u n Chris are right on...I remember all of those games...Tom Brady thought the Raiders won...nobody ever heard of the tuck rule...Rob Lytel was not even close to scoring..the 1969 AFC title game ...the official behind Otis Taylor starts to call him out of bounds then changes his mind and calls it a catch...in Pittsburgh in 72..the officials asked the official in the booth if he was going to guarantee their safety if the call was reversed he said no so the call stood..they new the call was wrong..the index card was plain and simple pure stupidity...to add insult to injury the referee in the index card game did the Super Bowl...talk about a job well done..WOW!!!...of course the league hated Al Davis..
Raiders where at the short end of calls however many in New England who remember The Patriots had some very good teams before B&B arrived will talk to you about a penalty often not called in the 1970's a ruffing the passer call on Sugar Bear Hamilton on Stabler on a 4th down play sustaining the winning drive.
@@tomb4575 As a Raiders fan, I never fully embraced that 1976 Raiders team because of the way they struggled against NE in the playoffs, lucked out in facing a decimated Steelers squad the next week and then got the choking Vikings in the SB. Always thought 1974 was the best Madden/Stabler team. The 1983 Raiders were their best SB champion as the destroyed everyone in their path once they acquired Mike Haynes including a Washington team in the SB that people were calling the best ever. The 1980 SB team was the most gratifying, given Plunkett's comeback story.
I was born six years after the AFL and NFL merger.
31:34 Don Maynard is tommy Lee jones doppelgänger
I'm reading a Russian history book right now. Ben Davidson does look like Tsar Nicholas II with his handlebar mustache!
The Raiders won the Heidi game and ultimately finished the season with a 12-2 record (and in addition won a sudden death playoff game against Kansas City 41-6 because they finished with a 12-2 record as well). Despite having a 12-2 record (the Jets finished 11-3) and beating the Jets in this game-the Raiders had to go to NY to play the Jets in the AFL title game because of a stupid rule that alternated the AFL championship every year between the East and the West and 1968 was the East's turn to host it. If the Raiders had hosted the AFL title game they would have been in SB3 instead of the Jets
Namath is the man ️🏈
MAN ON THE RUN by APOLOGETIX a great song for all the running backs
Wow how exciting think about this the Colts coach Don Shula had played for the jets coach Weeb Eubank when he coached the Colts. They both started in the A.A.F.C. all american football conference with the Browns. Shula a player Eubank a coach they went back a long way Eubank knew too much of the Colts game and was really the key to it all. After the game Shula took the train to Miami and later had the only undefeated season in N,F.L. history. Namath you can't take the win away from him however for him that was it, Namath ever the showman never the player.Least surprised person in the stadium Wiebe Eubank for him a repeat of 1950 Browns enter N.F.L. beat Eagles twice in season win N.F.L. title.
The Colts in the NFL today is not the same Colts that started in the A.A.F.C.. That A.A.F.C. Baltimore Colts franchise came into the NFL in 1950 and folded the following year.
The Colts franchise we know today in the NFL started in 1913 as The Dayton Triangles, then they relocated many times to become The Brooklyn (Football) Dodgers / Brooklyn Tigers, The Boston Yanks , The New York Bulldogs / New York Yanks & The Dallas Texans (NFL) before finally becoming the Baltimore Colts (now Indianapolis Colts).

Joe Namath if he would've had 2 good legs he would be higher in the ranks of all time great QBs
most overrated player in nfl history. absolutely no right being in the hall of fame
@@longhorns4ever824 right watch Joe Namath was watching Dan Marino same release and if they had knee surgery like today would've been even better he jump throw still looks great and the afl NFL never saw a healthy Joe but really I bet you think the one and only qb out of Texas was better not anybody who thinks Joe Namath shouldn't be in the hall is crazy ask the players who played with and played against great they say then go back watch Joe throw then watch Dan throw looks the same
@@josephmiller9424 look at his career numbers and tell me he belongs in the hall of fame. its laughable
@@longhorns4ever824 stats he won a superbowl he passed for yards when nobody else was putting up numbers like that on one good leg at the highest level of football like the players say unless you saw him early at Bama you never got see how good he was but he beat one of the greatest teams ever and he had 1 wr and on one leg go back listen to who played against him plus you say stats Dan Marino no rings must have sucked right go back look at his yards then look at the next qb or how many yards before he made in normal thing when you could blast qb but Texas don't put out qbs
@@josephmiller9424 no one with an IQ above a kicking tee ever compares namath to marino. namath had a losing record as a quarterback threw 173 touchdowns and 220 interceptions. only twice in his career did he throw for more touchdowns than interceptions in a season. marino was 147-93 as a starter and had 420 touchdowns to 252 interceptions. namath has no business in the hall. his numbers suck.
Lamonica said the same thing in Super 2,but Joe and his defense backed it up,some said Snell was the mvp,but quarterback is the MAN.Starr got the mvp but Mcgee gives one ponder.RICE got the mvp and COLLINS got one in 64>Makes one wonder.
THE AFL won a couple of Upsets. Then they got the Browns, Colts and the Steelers. If the AFC was any good, the Steelers and Raiders wouldn't have dominated them for 10 years.
The Steelers sucked until a good bit after the Merger and the common draft. The pre-Merger NFL doesn't get credit for the Steelers being great in the 70s
Joe Namath is STILL God!
The only thing Al Davis done was take many talented teams and making them also rans. And those sayings he had was asinine. The Raiders won one Super Bowl in the 70s and according to Bill King they were the team of the 70s. WRONG. Then they won two more in the 80s but they were the team of the decade. WRONG. Right area, wrong team. Dan Reeves was always right. They win one Super Bowl and they're the greatest team of all time. And they ALWAYS got an excuse for every big game they lost. Never successfully defended a title. And the last time they were in the Super Bowl they got the ass beating to the hands of who? Those world beaters from Tampa Bay. Who was Tampa's coach? Check your facts junior before you bring this bullshit again. The Raiders were and are a mid level team. 35 years since they won the trophy last? Oh that's genius, just like Al.
And yes the guy deserves the hall of fame...made football fun...ask Don Maynard or George Sauer...
Morgana running out on the field as usual like in MLB
I don't who that girl was, but it wasn't Morgana.
Whoever she was, she had some nice cans.
I see an anti-Nixon sentiment, you’re talking 1967-1968 in this segment, Lyndon Johnson was president. Aim your criticism at him
The good old days, when you could witness something strange without being concerned that it was somehow connected to terrorism or some other over-blown issue of the day: 13:14
Excellent use of high speed capture for use as slo-mo playback. The referee exhibited perfect form during that toss, this clip is probably used as a training film.
Al Davis did build the greatest franchise in sports. Then he got rid of Marcus Allen, and everything changed.
ARIZJOE Marcus Allen is a punk
Worst thing for a company is when its leader fails to plan for a succesion.
Anyone know why Belichick is in this video? I mean he didn't start until after the merger with the Baltimore Colts.
Because he's an expert on football history, and coaches an original AFL team?
Belichick is a huge football nerd. He'd be winning trivia contests if he wasn't a head coach

What a big oops! NBC East is ditch a final minutes of game for Heidi movie. Well the national football league reveals the game is known is the Heidi bowl.
Gowdy was right about Heidi woke up the TV execs.
Players like Ladd and Wahoo made more money in wrestling.
Does anyone know about the clip from 40:46-40:47 where the guy says "Sock it to me?" I tried looking online and couldn't find this anywhere.
The guy that says it is Timothy Leary, other than that, haven't got a clue where it might be.
It was from Rowan & Martin's Laugh In. A popular comedy show in 68-69. Gave Goldie Hawn and Lillie Tomlin their start. Sock it To Me was even uttered by President Nixon.
The Minnesota Vikings were the last NFL Team to win the NFL Championship. They beat the mighty Browns: 27-7. Fucken Vikings never took the KC Chiefs seriously. As a matter of fact, Coach Bud Grant didn't even have them practice, that's how powerful the team was, especially with that Defense.
They were just too one dimensional on Offense. They didn't even run any plays in motion against the Chiefs that day.
I think it must have been awesome to be Rex Ryan as a kid. To have a dad with a coaching job in pro football, and to have the opportunity to grow up immersed in the game…how in the hell could you not be a football man for life? Oh yeah, throw in tthe fact your dad revolutionized playing defense in the NFL too. Love or hate Rex Ryan, there’s no doubt the man could coach football.
NBC put on Heidi? Not cool, Peacock network.
Even worse doing a score crawl at the bottom of the screen when she gets out of the wheelchair.
The 1968 game between the New York Jets and the Raiders in Oakland ran longer than expected because of lots of scoring and penalties.
The score see sawed back and forth all day. New York led 32-29 (The Raiders scored on a deuce) with a minute to play. Oakland came from
behind with two late touchdowns. Preston Ridlehuber scored the game
winner with a fumbled kickoff return and Oakland won 43-32. NBC telecasted the game. After a commercial break, NBC cut away to air
"Heidi", a children's movie starring Jennifer Edwards (daughter of Julie
Andrews and Blake Edwards) as the title character. The Peacock Network received angry phone calls and the switchboard at the
New York headquarters blew out. What happened was that a switch
was thrown and viewers saw Swiss mountains. The following Monday,
during "The Huntley-Brinkley Report" NBC apologized for the error
and showed the two touchdowns. This was the infamous "Heidi
Game".
Anyone else see the phallic masculine symbolism in the intro? Back when men were really men! Even if we didn't know it.
I caught that too.

I wonder why the AFL allowed players to put their arms on other players head to bring them down?I don't think I'd wanna risk someone's helmet coming off.I'm guessing the NFL OK'd it as well.
+MIKECNW Back then it was allowed in both leagues. Defensive players had far more leeway on how to tackle someone then they do now.
I remember the old RAIDERS and al Davis we could be the greatest teams in the history of football all wanted the afc not to join and compete with them that would have been fun
What’s the song at 32:52?
Anyone know the Name of the song at 42:00???
no...just glad they rarely ever played it because its dog doo compared to others imo
Look at 23:18 written on the steel beam. SB XVIII Super bowl 18? Raiders beat the Skins. Weird. LOL
yeah, I'm guessing somebody just threw that picture in, not realizing they were off by 20 years!!!
06:10 Speed kills Mr Butkus
The AFL now the AFC is good but i truly, honestly believe that the AFC won't have a run like the NFC in consecutive Super Bowl wins from 1984 to 1996 i believe.
Love belichick ranking on Agnew. Cheap and terrible gop golfer.
Sounds like someone we know.
Theysaid that the Lions were considered a contender in 1967? Huh, they won 4 games in 66, and 5 games in 67, 4 the next year. Lions were not a good team, it was good they won but lets not prop them up here like that.
The merger decimated ALL of the bad AFC teams and by 1972, the Miami Dolphins played virtually nobody. on their schedule. The beat one team (KC)with a winning record and went 14-0. They won their playoff games and the Superbowl by one score.. Undefeated and unimpressive.
They need a new merger AFC Teams Mixed With NFC Teams / the 4 mega divisions NFC EAST/ Steelers/ Eagles / Commanders / Ravens / Giants / NY Jets / Patriots/ Panthers / NFC NORTH / Colts / Bears / Browns / Packers / Bengals / Lions / Bills / Vikings The New Black & Blue Division/ The 2 Mega Divisions of The New NFC Conference THE AFC / Mainly Some Expansions Teams With Old Franchises/ AFC South / Cowboys / Texans / Saints / Dolphins/ Falcons/ Jaguars / Buccaneers/ Titans / The New AFC West / Chiefs / 49ers / Raiders / Rams / Broncos / Cardinals / Chargers / Seahawks/ The 2 Mega Divisions For The NEW AFC Conference....I did the research for this Fomat * The Traveling is Perfect for Both Sides / When Playing Each other in The Conference Play / Eagles Steelers Twice A Season / Cowboys Texans Twice / 49ers Raiders Twice / Jaguars / Dolphins / Buccaneers twice / Giants / Jets Twice / Ravens / Commanders Twice / Ahhh The Rivalry Renewed between The Colts / Bears / Colts / Packers/ Colts / Vikings / Colts Vikings / Same with The Browns in The New NFC NORTH/ bringing back The old NFL before 1970.. I dont know Why The League Now Wont do that / Why wait 4 years for those dream match ups stop with nfc north vs afc north every 4 years.. & etc.. To be honest The colts situation now how are they rival with the titans / jaguars / & texans The Colts Join The NFL in 1953 / so how are they rival with the texans 2002 / The Titans 1959 previously known as the Houston Oilers The Jaguars 1995 / ???? Just Saying..
The Titans 1959 were actually what the JETS used to be
Joe Namath over Bart Starr. How many championships did Namath win again??
please...starr couldnt hold Namaths jock at QB
Bart Starr won 5 NFL Championships and Super Bowl's 1 and 2 and was the MVP of both Super Bowls. He almost won a 6th Championship but the Packers came up 9 yards short against the Eagles in the 1960 NFL Championship game...losing 17-13. Namath won the 1968 AFL Championship and Super Bowl 3 but never really did all that much other than that. His knees were so bad that doctors predicted his career would only last 4 years when he was drafted in 1965. Plus he was part of many bad Jets teams
@@jeremythompson9122 saying Namath only won a super bowl and didn't do much else other than that is ridiculously misleading and i would go as far to say totally UNINFORMED no? He's a hall of famer dude, so the career wasn't empty around that..not only that, he came from a league that epitomized the forward pass and ran schemes you still see today (See Don Coryell and Sid Gillman's passing tree), unlike the 3 yards and a cloud of dust boring NFL....and it turned out the NFL couldn't deal with the AFL as SB 3 and 4 clearly showed. Trying to even insinuate Bart Starr as a better QB is just pure blasphemy and borderline total nonsense. If you want to debate on this, you better bring a whole lot more than your first attempt above..better yet, merely asking the people they played against would suffice..bet my last dollar Namath comes out as the better pure QB in their eyes
It wasn't about QB style it was about Style.
@@tomb4575 It wasn't about style, it was about getting the job done on the football field and what they did for the game. Namath definitely had style, but that's about it.
The 1966 Chiefs couldn’t compete with the *good* NFL teams. They would have beaten maybe half the NFL teams.
Vanillacoke is better.
Imagine actually caring in a pre season game? 66 points??? Today the overpaid crybabies go on social media and say they're practicing load management.
How in the hell can a program about the American Football League become so political this is why I cannot watch football today
Because all of life is political. Football, nor any other pastime that is followed by millions of people, lives in a vacuum.
As soon as I heard Peter Coyote narrating, that was how I knew it was going to also weave the politics into it. That's his modus operandi. Personally, I prefer pure football, with no reference to what was going on in society, and especially trying to connect as much of the social upheavals going on in the country at the time, to this fledgling pro football league. Typical Left.
They didn't really inject politics into this. It's one thing to talk about what happened. It's another thing to try to push an agenda and bring up something that has little to do with what's being talked about.
that was the times back then
The answer is IF YOU CONFESS WITH YOUR MOUTH THAT JESUS IS LORD, AND BELIEVE IN YOUR HEART THAT HE ROSE FROM THE DEAD SHALL BE SAVED
