I was a teenager in Houston back when he was the Oilers HC and it was well known he left Elvis tickets every home game. Fairly certain there are many local news clips with him talking about it.
Much like the wildcat or even Chicago's 4/6 defense, glanville's grits blitz what's simply something the NFL had never seen before, and thus confused and stunned the NFL for a year. This is not the same as success, the NFL is a chess match and once Jerry's opponents caught up it was obvious Jerry was playing with checkers. This is the same phenomenon we see with a sophomore slump from quarterbacks. Rookie quarterbacks the NFL has no film on have a much better chance of succeeding, in their next year as they become a known quantity to defensive coordinators that is when you find out who is for real and who isn't. Glanville was never for real
Even more than that, the NFL specifically changed the rules to kill the Grits Blitz because it exposed how you could basically wreck the game by assaulting the wideout at the snap. NFL created the defensive holding rule and suddenly that defense didn't work so well.
@@MinisterManDandefensive holding has always been illegal. The NFL created the illegal contact rule, originally called chucking. This rule only allowed a defensive back one bump on a receiver within five yards. The rule was implemented because of how Lester Hayes and Mike Haynes, from the Raiders played the bump and run.
When he was in Houston, I liked him and the style of play, but as I got older, those teams underachieved so badly. The irony, look who the last 3 losses in Houston were to.
@@Benny-Bronx I also grew up in the 80s and thought Glanville was doofus. Maybe I wouldn't have used the phrase "all hype" at age 11, but even a kid could see he was a jackass. Kids are observant.
Jerry glanville is or was a phony but he wasn't the worst coach in the world. Any coach that can get a couple playoff wins is better than 50% of coaches. I don't like any of his stick but he did manage to get the Oilers to the playoffs a couple times.
Sam Wyche owned his ass when he had his Bengals run up the score on him........then once the game was over, Wyche was at mid-field laughing and waving bye bye at Jerry as Jerry walked off the field.
This video shocked me! I had no idea Glanville was even alive, much less "coaching". I'm old enough to remember he was one of the clowns of the 80s (and definitely a product of that silly decade) alongside a certain Donald Trump. I had kinda forgotten that Sam Wyche was such an expert troll at times. Buddy Ryan was the other guy who was just such a schmuck, though at least he had some credibility with the Bears as a DC.
You bash the old timers. What do we have now? Men dressing as women and totally fake pregame nonsense and announcer’s. Watching NFL these days is just plain corny nonsense. Only guys worth a listen are Sanchez and Gannon. Because they don’t drool over every player they don’t get prime time like that 100% suck Collingsworth- less.
Jerry like him or not was a colorful character. He's still coaching at 83 years old? He did turn around that very bad Houston team and made them a perennial playoff team. As a Steelers fan ,set aside the Noll incident, got Jerry fired twice. After the 89 wildcard game and after a 45-17 mnf thumping of the falcons in 1993.
That clip of Chuck Noll - the epitome of class and integrity - taking Glanville to task for dirty play. Then I knew how bush league the 'Not For Long / NFL' man-in-black really was. 🤨
Glanville turned around an Oilers team and Then a Falcons team. I wouldn’t put him in the HOF but he could turn teams around. A video on Steve Spurrier as an NFL coach might be better.
Warren Moon wasn’t winning until Glanville was head coach. Not saying he needed Glanville to be great but he did need a defense to win. Glanville turned around the Defence.
Great video. If you get a chance go listen to Jerry’s interview on the Dale Jr Download from a couple of years ago. It touches on lots of football, but really focuses on his racing ‘career’ you don’t even have to be a racing fan to know he is lying through his teeth on just about everything. Dude builds himself up to be on par with Dale Sr.
Man you so obviously have it in for this man😂. Personally I have always found Jerry to be a hoot. His coaching skills are average at best and he is prehistoric in his teaching a more physical brand of defense but wow you just dragged the guy.
The real reason the Grits Blitz was so successful is that defensive holding wasn't a penalty yet. They'd blitz 8-9 guys every play and just ask their wideouts to commit acts of assault on wide outs at the snap and trust the QB to be scared enough and the protections be overwhelmed enough to get home before the WR could break loose from the holding. Well the NFL responded by creating defensive holding in the offseason after and bang suddenly the defense was just okay instead of the greatest of all time.
Old enough to remember Glanville leaving tickets at window in a pre game shtick. Idk if he was still coaching or working for the network. But I loved the guy as a personality. Not these goofs they have talking now.
Jerry Glanville is if Donald Trump decide to be a football coach or maybe what George W Bush would've been like if he was the MLB's commissioner instead of president LMAO
One of my favorite articles from the old ESPN Page 2 was when Jim Caple wrote about a fantasy Bush Jr. Commissionership: www.espn.com/page2/s/caple/020925.html
Man, those 1990 and 1991 Atlanta Falcons teams were so fun to watch. And Chris Miller was a good QB. And of course instead of taking it a little further in 1992 they took a Carlos back. And sure it was a completely different roster, but that 1998 team never got their well earned respect. The main focus was Denver, Minnesota, NY Jets. Then the lowly 14-2 Atlanta Falcons. And of course the year they go 14-2 they had to play the NFC Championship on the road, to play the 15-1 Minnesota Vikings. They’ve had some great years here and there. And of course there was a Super Bowl in the mix too.
Olthose oilers teams with Warren Moon, Ernest givins, etc running the run and shoot had hyper successful offenses if the defense had even been closed they could have been super bowl contenders
Coach Jerry Glanville is one of the most influential of his generation with Coach Prime and many others in his Coaching tree. The architect of the greatest Defense in NFL history ( 1977 Atlanta Falcons ). His players, family, friends and fans love ❤️ him. Too legit too quit! Note: You are very unfair to a great man's coaching legacy.
I mean, I think present-day Hammer would admit that 1990s MC Hammer was a bit of a phony. He was a man who bankrupted himself in an attempt to keep up appearances.
Never forget, Sacramento did have a handful of random NHL games during the 84-game seasons of the 1990s. Seriously though, the NHL is something that can thrive just about anywhere you put it because the product is really good. It's just that a lot of people are never going to give it a chance without a local connection. In that regard, Sacramento would be a great hockey town. Everything hinges on the caveat that ownership is good. Bad ownership let Arizona down massively, and that is why the NHL is no longer there.
@@thetouchback yeah the new generation doesn’t know about the Montreal Canadiens playing a game at arco lol.

This video was awesome. My exact thoughts about glanville the whole time. Didn’t know he was from Ohio and didn’t know he was still coaching. Crazy.
Nick Saban was on the oilers coaching staff…I wonder what he thinks of glanville
Those old Oilers uniforms were awesome.

The NWO reference was great, Not For Long instead of 4 life.
Actually Bill Walsh would argue that Buddy Ryan was the biggest phony
Yes, and the late Don Shula and Tom Landry would agree.....
Buddy would say Mike Ditka
I was just a kid, and a Denver Broncos fan, but even I could tell Glanville was all hype.
No you couldn’t. Explain how a kid would know such things at that age?

The man is 83 years old and still at it, unbelievable. June Jones brought Glanville to Hamilton in the CFL so I guess you could say they made up.

I dont care what anybody says, Ill always love Jerry Glanville.
💯
Glanville played starters into the 4th quarter against the Oilers in a 1991 preseason game.
91 Redskins vs 91 Falcons... 80-24 lol
Jerry like him or not was a colorful character. He's still coaching at 83 years old? He did turn around that very bad Houston team and made them a perennial playoff team.

Fun, entertaining video. Kudos.
Just one thing.
It’s Bob Avellini, not Bill.
Continued success to you and your channel.
Cheers.
Jerry Glanville's Pigskin Footbrawl was one of the most fun games of all time!
Glanville turned around an Oilers team and Then a Falcons team. I wouldn’t put him in the HOF but he could turn teams around.
A video on Steve Spurrier as an NFL coach might be better.
Did he really turn the Oilers around, or was that their Hall of Fame QB?
Warren Moon wasn’t winning until Glanville was head coach. Not saying he needed Glanville to be great but he did need a defense to win. Glanville turned around the Defence.
Great video Thanks Brother ✌️
I met him irl. Same with marty shottenheimer. They were good dudes.

That interview was wild because so much of it can be easily disproven.
I'm liking the video. New to channel. Happy thanksgibing...gobble til you wobble
A Happy Thanksgiving to you, too!
Glanville was a terrific defensive coordinator at one time

Joe Pisarchic. His knell down against the Eagles.
Sam Wyche's Bengals smashed this dork then clowned him 😂
Do you know what you even had to do to piss off Chuck Noll?

Lol. He'd try to storm the field and steal the trophy after losing SB.
At least you are now unburdened by what has been kid, only cost y’all $1.5 BILLION! 😆😂🤣🤣😝😝😂. PRICELESS!
Haha 😂 you get multiple updoots from my Reddit gold account
Lol, poor lil commie
Dudes jealous of glanville
So stating facts makes someone jealous
I remember his dumb and dirty Houston teams were dubbed "Jerry's Kids". What a clown.

He honestly comes off as having a bit of a Napoleon complex.
Props. He's playing a character and making money from it. Fake AF but it doesn't matter in the meta of things.
Olthose oilers teams with Warren Moon, Ernest givins, etc running the run and shoot had hyper successful offenses if the defense had even been closed they could have been super bowl contenders
Trump as a successful businessman or Jerry Glanville as a component football coach??
Two things that never happened!
You sound ridiculous
Trump as a billionaire or you as a commentator on a channel with 9.78k subscribers?
Narcissist
I was around for those Falcon teams in the early 90s... he was THAT bad
Turned the Falcons black, that is all that matters
He hated Farve, what a dumbass, he let one of the best QB’s be traded to Green Bay.

❤Chuck Noll❤
I liked him we also; oth went to NMU
HE WON PLAYOFFS GAMES ...BUT... yeeeeeah
Rex Ryan has more playoff wins and a better career winning percentage than Glanville.
Rich Kotite also won a playoff game so what’s your point
Bob Avellini
You reposted the video from earlier this morning and you still get Bob Avellini’s name wrong
Jerry Glanville is a Johnny Cash wanna-be.
Bob Avellini not Bill .
just a tip put some bass in your voice and use your indoor voice
Kinda sounds like trump and MAGA
Both just won the election, keep crying
Love the vid...until u dissed HAMMER!
I mean, I think present-day Hammer would admit that 1990s MC Hammer was a bit of a phony. He was a man who bankrupted himself in an attempt to keep up appearances.
@thetouchback ....damn bro. Droppin truth bombs all day..I may have to subscribe
This is weak exposition.
But if it really was, you'd be saying where it was wrong instead of making vague blanket statements because you dislike the truth.
That fake news comment made me rethink you having credibility. Have you been watching the news the past decade?
Show me someone using the phrase "fake news" and I'll show you where they are lying or the truth they are trying to hide.
No, he's right about people who use "fake news". They usually are trying to misdirect you from the crap they're trying to pull.
That's funny, I had the exact opposite reaction... Funny how the folks always screaming FAKE NEWS are the least credible people on the planet...
