During the Colts victory in Buffalo Sam Spence's composition "The Ramblin' Man From Grambling" was played. Spence wrote it for Buffalo quarterback James Harris who played in the game.
In the game against the Rams, with all due respect to "The Voice" John Fascenda, I don't know what he was talking about when he said the Rams gave the Colts a lot of trouble- since the Colts won their first championship in 1958 (the year of my birth), they've beaten the Rams 17 out of 24 games up to that point, including the '71 game, plus one tie (in 1967).
I wonder if the 1971/72 Baltimore Colts, who seemed to be better than the year they won the Super Bowl, would have beaten Dallas again in the Super Bowl, if they had met and played against Roger Starbauch?
It’s still a profound tragedy that the Colts ever left Baltimore.
They were still mainly at the top of their game. The defense was as ferocious as those 1960s units, and runningback talent, galore.
I’m willing to bet if any of these old-time games get rebroadcast, they would break viewing records.
Loved those Colts, Matte and Bulaich in 71 were great!
The first Colt team, season I remember, late loss to NE killed the season.
The divisional round 20-3 win over the Browns would be there last playoff win as the Baltimore Colts .
Last good year for this era of the Colts
In Week 11 the Colts gave the Raiders a rare ass kicking at home 37 14

What a defense
The Indianapolis Colts STILL doesn't sound right all these years later.
By this time, the Rams owner and the Colts owner had exchanged franchises. Carol Rosenblum and Dan Reaves.
The Rams game against the Colts would be the Rams last visit to Baltimore until 1996
The last of the juggernaut Colts. They should have kept Earl Morrall

If the drunk Baltimore Colt fan at
Does anyone know y the bottom fell out the next year!!!
Shula would have his revenge in the Orange Bowl (AFC Championship) that year and then Landry would topple the Dolphins in Super Bowl VI:
