Great clip! Loved the bit with Largent getting his revenge. And how about those Earl Campbell hits? If God made the perfect running back, it would be Earl Campbell. I miss this NFL. If you fart near a QB now, they fine you for it.

Damn that was a great video. Your right Grizz i miss the ole days when they played football. The funny part is the players are suppose to be bigger and stronger but yet they are more of pussies then back then. I use to love watch Jack Tatum highlights that guy was a hitting machine. Back then the players earned their money.
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

It wouldn't surprise me if the injury rate is higher now because they're less prepared for the catastrophic hits when they do occur. I suppose the proportion of career-ending injuries was greater back then, but the proportion of injuries non-career-ending that cause players to miss significant time is likely higher now.

Just commenting on the injury thing. Back then their career ending injuries are now just a 8 week rehab after surgery now. Guy would tear an acl back then and their careers were over.
