Old Packers highlight videos

Because I grew up without television, I didn't start following the Packers until the NFC Championship Game against the Panthers, which I just happened to find while surfing the channels on the radio. And even after that, I was only able to follow the games on the radio until I left home for good. As a result, I have never seen a lot of the classic games and big plays you old-timers reminisce about, and I'm sure I'm not alone in this. I know that there are almost no surviving whole game tapes for games before the 1970s at last, but Ted Thompson would be really cool to see at least highlight videos of these older games.

To start things out, here is a video of the climax of the famous 1989 "replay game" against the Chicago Bears. I believe this was the first NFL game in which instant replay affected the outcome.

Some of the comments posted on that video are interesting too.

That was the day I became a full fledged Packers fan. And Don Majkowski and Sterling Sharpe fan, although I liked Sharpe even as a rookie, mainly because my dad said Lynn Swann was better. I had to be "different". Surely, Rourke you know what that's like. :)

There's this play and then Packers beating the Bears on their turn en route to the Super Bowl. Do the Bears have any such thing?

That was a beautiful throw. Reminds me of Rodgers

A lot of Majkowski highlights remind me of Rodgers. Their mechanics were similar in many ways, especially when Majkowski was out of the pocket. Rodgers usually looks a lot more fluid and graceful than Majkowski did in this play, though. He practically tripped over that 15-yard line. =d>

C'mon, old timers. Surely you have some classic plays and games to share with the young'uns like me![-o<

There are many that I could throw into this thread.. I will start with one of the single most memorable Packers moments I can recall.

Oct 17th, 1983... a good Packers team (for the Packers of the 70's and 80's that is) taking on the defending Superbowl champs in the Skins.

Drive after drive.. pass after pass.. matching the champs score for score in what seemed light a boxing match of matching jabs.

From Mad Dog jarring the ball loose early to a late miss by Mark Moseley... the game was simply one of the best games I have ever experienced let alone a Packer game. Visions of a carried off Kellen Winslow come to mind as a comparison.

Simply a joy to watch.

No Youtube clip that I have found..

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Great game, MNF was huge for me when The Packers played, was one of the few times I would get to watch them on tv.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!
