I remember watching the very game live when Barry Sanders got 2000, then promptly popped off that 50+ yard run, that was awesome.

The safety for the Broncos at the end of the video is Steve Atwater. He was one of the hardest hitting safeties in the league. He would put his head down and put his helmet right in your chest. Most of his big hits would be considered illegal in today's game. From the late 80's to the mid 90's, the Broncos defense (the orange crush) was a lot of fun to watch. They had Atwater at one safety position and Denise Smith at the other safety position and both of those guys would lay some lumber week in and week out.

You guys would love the original "NFL Films" videos from the 1960s. They were the first to show the true magnitude of professional football. It was magical to watch those old films on tv. ...Also, there are many NFL highlights, year by year, from the late 1960s and 1970s to see the true toughness and grit of old American football.

I genuinely love the Office Blokes. They just seem like a good group of dudes, that if you went down the pub and saw them at a table, you'd want to go over and have a chat with them.

A good, short, and concise example is the Steve Atwater hit during Super Bowl 32. Or honestly most of Atwater’s big hits during his career; imagine that happened in today’s game and how many tens of thousands+ he would have to pay in fines

Great Waterboy clip too 😂

I'm from Michigan and grew up on Barry Sanders. His highlight video is fantastic if you haven't reacted to it yet.

11:13. They're showing a run by digital Bo Jackson, who could not be stopped in Tekmo Bowl.

Gameday 99 was one of the best football games ever

Here in the states, in the 80s, bowling was on tv and was enjoyed. Similar to snooker, lost its popularity in the 90s.

Of the NFL looked different in the 90s, the televisions weren't large screen, wide, and digital. Another key reason the game is different is the importance of analytics.

In 1976 the NFL instituted the Mel Blount rule the favored the offense, they been tweaking it ever since.

I dont even live in the UK and the fact that games get blacked out pisses me off lol

We have the same things with blackouts here in the US. It's a bigger issue in basketball, baseball, and hockey than it is with the NFL but there's still some blackouts. It stinks

I was one of those hardcore fantasy football guys in the 90's. We got the results out of the paper the next day and whatever they put down in that paper stood.

I have been watching NFL football since 1956 ,when we got our first TV set .The game has changed so much since then , luckily I haven't , LOL ... I collected football cards and knew all of starters on every NFL team then . Of course there were far fewer teams then and free agency didn't exist ,so there was no player movement from team to team ,except for trades .There were also only 12 games per season . The thing that I dislike most about the changes is all of the rule changes to promote the passing game and handcuff the defenses . The quarterbacks now are almost as protected from hits as a crooked democrat politician is from prosecution .

Tecmo bowl! But personally I still enjoyed John Madden Football more 🙃

Even tough todays players are bigger and faster than the NFL players of the 50's thru the 1970's yet those earlier players played during a time when the game rules allowed a lot more physical contact that is allowed in todays games and it was common for players to have to play hurt because most players were playing hurt because was a lot more physical than todays game.

Lol that Elway leap at the end there still happens by some QBs, much to the chagrin of coaches. Jake Allen is notable for doing it.

Definitely need to dive into that “Most Miserable Tenure in NFL History” about the 3-31-1 Cleveland browns in their couple year span. You’ll understand browns fans pain 😂 love the videos fellas, keep it up!

Awesome video, really wish they would bring back the bigger shoulder pads, only reason being is in my opinion it made football players look larger than life fictional characters.

The '90s? LoL Check out the 60's/70's/80's... That was Football!

The NFL as a whole is trash now because they dumbest the game down for casual fans and tv revenue.....the ole cash grab🤮🤮🤮
