yep remember that one, got dominated and embarrassed on tv

I actually watch that game when I lived in Rochester NY….don’t know why it was on TV as we got all the buffalo games and Giants games as they were the local team….maybe it was 4pm game

Snake told Madden after the first series. Were going to win.

Yeah, those were "the good ole days".

..John trusted Stabler and pretty much told him he could audible as he saw fit.

The other thing I remember about Freddy, he got tackled on the 1 yard line more times than I can count.

Stabler called his own players as did Plunkett.

Stabler called his own players as did Plunkett.

Think most of QB,s in the 70,s called their own plays…
The technology back then was by verbal communication;
I know that the coaches did send some plays in by via player coming from sideline to huddle….but it was not like it is today….

I mean the coaching staff was like HC, OC, DC, ST and water boy….couldn’t have been more 10 people working in the coaching staff compared to the 60 we have nowadays

Stabler called his own players as did Plunkett.

Yes, I'm aware.
