In the Top 10 Homefield Advantages video they talked about how the Orange Bowl had opposing teams wilting under the searing Miami heat (ha, I made a funny!). But yeah, the Epic In Miami is a prime example of heat absolutely taking it out of you.
@craighenry23512 жыл бұрын
Good point and it did affect the Chargers, especially Kellen Winslow. They had 81 degree temperatures in that game and I don’t know what the heat index was, but it had to be higher than 81. After playing an overtime game that day, the conditions were the exact opposite extreme a week later. I know the official low wind chill was -59 for the game, but we were told throughout Ohio that gusts could take it as low as -75 degrees. I am surprised,i in facing those two extremes in a weeks time that some Chargers didn’t have side effects from it.

I grew up in northern Minnesota and we could play tackle football in the deep snow because no one could get hurt. We wore chopper mitts as a normal thing around the farm which were oversized wool mittens with leather mittens over them. So when we went out for a pass, just before the ball got to the receiver, the receiver would snap his hands downward and the mittens would come off and you could catch the ball. Then you go find your mittens for the next play. They shut schools only if it got to 25 below but we still had to milk the cows and feed and water all the animals. If we shut off the hose for a second, we had to drag the frozen hose into the basement of the house to get it to thaw. You had to drain out all the water before you brought it back outside or it would freeze immediately. It only got to 40 below once but that was the very bottom of our thermometer so who knows how could it was then.

Ah yes I remember those days on the farm in Missouri. Always had to drain the hose or it'd get frozen solid in minutes. I also remember having to take the axe and walking to the ponds in pasture that resembled tundra to chop through the ice so the cows could get water. Twice a day sometimes three if it was zero with a wind chill of -25. When everything thawed it turned into a quagmire of mud. It was always a moment of suspense for me listening to the radio listening for school closings. However if we were hosting a basketball tourney hell or high water couldn't make them close school.

I have watched for this game to show up on a list as I watched the Freezer Bowl from about 100 miles away. On that day, I had to travel back to Columbus as I was returning to Ohio State for the start of winter quarter, the next day. I grew up in Alliance, Ohio (near Canton) and left at about 8 am that morning. Where we were, it was -13 degrees. When we got to. Columbus, it was 8 or 9 below. We watched the game, but I knew it was a forgone conclusion. San Diego would never win this game. Let me explain just how bad it was. The winds were strong enough that in some places in the state, the wind chill was as low as -75 depending on the gusts. To show you how that can affect things, there was ice on the inside of our windows in my dorm room. What happened was that the temperature difference between inside and outside caused condensation which kept running down the window and freezing at the bottom. There was a 6” portion of ice, a half inch thick, across the width of the window, at the bottom. We also had 6” of snow on the ground in Columbus, with gale force winds blowing it around. They almost cancelled classes the next day , for only the second time in history. So, you see what ridiculous conditions the game was played in. Sorry, but not even the Ice Bowl was this extreme. San Diego just didn’t stand a chance. Maybe a few individuals could have adjusted, but not the whole team. Conversely, this is Ohio. The Bengals had dealt with similar weather before, if not that extreme. The weather may never have been quite this bad for a game, but it has been close. I remember a whole month of below zero temperatures one winter. The Freezer Bowl should be number one. I should know, I was out in it.

And to top it off, San Diego has just played the weekend before in an epic game in Miami that featured Kellen Winslow being carried off the game due to pure exhaustion from the heat and the length of the game being an OT game. That has to take a toll on the body professional athlete or not. Then to go from playing in 80 degree weather to -9 with nasty wind chills......

As a Bears fan, I will say this- if the fog had not rolled in on that day, I think Chicago loses. The Bears were badly understaffed (Dent, Wilson, and Perry were out of commission, McMahon wasn't healthy which was sadly common), and Philadelphia had a solid team under Buddy Ryan. It's no wonder, looking back on it now, that San Francisco blasted them the next week. It would have been a more competitive game if it would have been the Eagles. And yes, I agree with you about Duerson. It's a tragedy to be sure. RIP

The 1977 NFC playoff game Vikings at Rams Mudbowl should have been in the top 10. Another game that didn't even get a mention was the 1949 NFL Championship Game Eagles at Rams. It was eerily similar to the 1977 contest. Played in a relentless downpour, Philly won 14-0. Rams owner Dan Reaves wanted the game postponed but NFL commissioner Bert Bell refused claiming radio broadcast commitments made a postponement impossible. That game was called "The Muddy Day in Sunsville!"

@ravens52raylewis873 жыл бұрын
As a Ravens fan all I have to say about the Tuck Rule is that people need to get over it honestly you know why? Because not only had that call been used earlier that season when the Patriots played the Jets when Vinny Testaverde had gotten the same call but it had also been used since 1999 almost two years before that Patriots vs Raiders playoff game was in existence. That's not the only thing either. During that game after the officials had made that call the Raiders had opportunities to put that game away in their favor. They could have blocked Adam Vinatieri's field goal, and they could have stopped the Patriots offense in overtime the Raiders defense had them on 4th down and still didn't get a stop in OT the Raiders had their chances and they didn't seal the game. So you tell me who's really to blame here? The officials or the Raiders ineptitude?

All the camera flashes going off sporadically all around the stadium, it was a really cool sight. Wow, I can't believe I never noticed that those flashes had disappeared completely. I like our latest technological advancements, with our phones being one of the best, BUT, it does kind of suck that the days of thousands of camera flashes all going off at nearly the same moment, are gone forever!! Anyway, I know this is a stupid thing to point out or miss, but hey, it's a cool sight damn it!! And I'd completely forgotten about it somehow lol.... :)) EDIT: Obviously I am aware that our phones still have a flash lol, but they do not produce the effect that you see in the clip I pointed out with my time-stamp. Those are from the days when people had to bring a real camera with them if they wanted to take any pictures of the game, and their flashes are much brighter....

Loved Fours’ comments about his game. Class act. Owns it and gives props to Cincy. I don’t know why, since I’m not a fan of his team, but I’ve always kind of liked Dan Fouts. Now I see why… just a decent person. Owns his performance and credits the Bengals. So many of these players and coaches are just constant whiners. Raiders players whining about the Steelers. Shula whining about the Pats, when he turned around and did something equally devious several weeks later himself. It’s all fine and well if you win, I guess, right? Give me a break. These are supposed to be big tough guys. Grow up. Fouts’ reaction/response was perfect. Very classy and respectful. Just tip your cap to the team that beat you. Same thing with the Raiders (once again!) whining about the snow bowl… hating on the Patriots… as if the Patriots made that call. Right or wrong (and the more I watch it the more I think it was actually the right call), the refs made it. Hating on the other team like they stole the game from you is pathetic… especially since that only resulted in a tie and Oakland had multiple additional opportunities to win. They blew it. Over and over and over again. But whine about ONE call (a possibly correct one) that impacted the game. Losers. Whiners. Crybabies. Pathetic. Hat’s off to classy Dan Fouts. Virtually the ONLY decent player on the losing side interviewed in this entire program. Class act, Dan!
@garyedwardgray75492 жыл бұрын
I should add to my own comment regarding the Raiders vs New England that the NFL made the fiasco worse than it was. It was NOT ruled an incompletion because of the tuck rule!!!!! Fact!!! End of story!!! The NFL made that up after the fact and only muddied the waters. It was ruled, just as the referee announced during the game, an incompletion because the arm was moving forward. That was the rule. It still is, even after the elimination of the tuck rule. So, Raiders fans and players whining that, as in this video, “it’s never been enforced or since”… fine… you’re right… and it wasn’t enforced in this game either. It was a stupid excuse that the NFL made up for whatever reason after the fact. The official clearly announced that the arm was moving forward. Even in today’s NFL, with the tuck rule deleted, that’s an incomplete pass. Here is why I think the NFL made up that excuse, and, in defense of the Raiders, as much as I’m ripping them, why they have an argument: Brady lost control of the ball almost at the very instant that his arm stopped moving forward. Sooooooooo… was it moving forward or not? Almost impossible to tell, because you can’t precisely determine loss of control. So, maybe it’s an incompletion, maybe it’s a fumble. When I see it, I think it’s an incompletion. So, I’m not all apoplectic about it. BUT… and this is where Raiders’ nation may have a beef… it’s supposed to be clear cut in order to overturn the call on the field. It absolutely was NOT clear cut. It never should’ve been overturned. But… my well of sympathy for the Raiders runs dry pretty fast because, even though it shouldn’t have been overturned, it was PROBABLY overturned to the right call. Here’s the problem with all of the audio commentary that you hear… “he’s pumping, not getting ready to pass!!!” That DOES NOT MATTER according to NFL rules even today. It’s irrelevant. The commentators are morons. If his arm is moving forward, it’s incomplete. Period. That’s the rule. End of story. So, although I agree with Raiders’ Nation that the call shouldn’t have been overturned, that’s only because the evidence wasn’t indisputable. Looked to me like his arm WAS going forward. So, the initial ruling on the field was WRONG (and the tuck rule had nothing to do with it… that was an after the fact pathetic defense by the NFL). So, I’m sorry, I have a REAL hard time being sympathetic when your argument is that the WRONG call should’ve been upheld because you can’t PROVE it was wrong. Actually, by the letter of the law, you’re right… which is why the NFL had to make their lame tuck rule declaration. But, bitch, please… that is one lane defense, Raiders Nation. “Please uphold the WRONG call because the evidence isn’t incontrovertible.” That is one seriously weak, lame argument… “I know we’re wrong. But you might have a hard time proving it. So… since you said we were right in the first place, even though everyone knows we’re not… please don’t change your mind.” The ONLY reason most people to this day still think the Raiders’ argument is right is because the NFL poisoned the well with the tuck rule. The tuck rule had nothing to do with this call. That was an after the fact invention. The on field official told you why the call was reversed. His arm was moving forward. Even now that the tuck rule has been abolished, nothing would change… the “arm moving forward” still constitutes an incomplete pass. And that’s what the official announced. The tuck rule was irrelevant. It was not a factor in that call. The official announced it himself… arm moving forward… incomplete. The tuck rule has been erased from the rule book and guess what? This portion of the rule remains the same… arm moving forward… incomplete. I’ll repeat it for the umpteenth time, the reason the NFL had to intercede with that piss-poor excuse is because the evidence wasn’t incontrovertible. So, the ruling on the field shouldn’t have been overturned - which is the ONLY correct argument Raiders’ Nation has. That said, the ruling on the field was PROBABLY wrong (yes, it’s not incontrovertible… tough to tell). So, I have zero sympathy for Raiders’ Nation. Sure, the ruling probably shouldn’t have been changed. But, in the same light, it was probably changed to the CORRECT call. How is ANY NFL fan supposed to be upset by the officials making the right call?!?!?! The officials were right, and you lost. So, please tell me, where exactly is the controversy? There is none. Patriots won fair and square. The NFL actually made it worse, injecting controversy, with their made up excuse about the tuck rule. If anything, the Patriots got screwed by having their legitimacy questioned!!! The right call was made, the better team won. End of story. And they proved they were the better team. They absolutely steamrolled Pittsburgh in a game PIT assumed they’d win. Would the raiders have done the same? And barring one irrelevant Willie McGinest holding call - about 20 yards away from the play - the Patriots would’ve pancaked the Rams in the Super Bowl. Y’all remember that play? Fumble and a 95 yard return for a TD… called back on a completely irrelevant holding call 20-30 yards away from the play, on the complete opposite side of the field. I’m not complaining. Don’t care. Best team still won. All I’m pointing out is that the game wasn’t as close as the score indicated. Patriots dominated both the Steelers AND “the greatest show on turf”. You seriously think the Raiders would’ve done the same? LOL. The better team won The Snow Bowl game. And the Brady incompletion call was probably correct. I’ll grant that there’s a small chance it wasn’t correct and, by rule, it shouldn’t have been overturned. But it’s the Raiders claiming they lost on some technicality. No no no no no… had they WON, THAT would’ve been on a technicality. They would’ve won because the officials PROBABLY made the wrong call on the field, and because it was merely PROBABLE, not CERTAIN, they couldn’t overturn it. They had the balls to go with what was probably correct (and, yes, probably violated the rules, which would’ve handed the Raiders a win on a technicality). The officials deserve a bonus and an award for opting to get it right over following some ill-defined rule (what percentage defines clear and irrefutable evidence? 100%? Or is 90% enough? And if 90% is enough, how about 80 or 75%?). The replay official just said fuck it and called it as it was. Kudos to him. Get it right. That’s the most important thing. He called it right and the best team won. There is no controversy in that game. It’s all manufactured controversy. And, sadly, the NFL itself contributed to the controversy by injecting the tuck rule bullshit. The tuck rule had nothing to do with it. That was an after the fact addendum in order to protect the officials. The officials needed no protection. They made the correct call. And as I’ve pointed out a million times, even WITHOUT the tuck rule, the same call would be made today. If the QB’s arm is moving forward, it’s deemed a forward pass. Period. End of story. In fact, I’m not trying to be a Pats fan here. You want to find a case where the Pats got an advantage with this rule? It is NOT the Raiders game. It’s their SB win vs the Falcons. The strip sack of Matt Ryan. Was his arm moving forward? Very, very, very hard to tell. But Hightower didn’t hit his arm forward, and the ball landed in front of Ryan. Soooooo… simple physics tells me forward momentum. Incomplete pass. And it’s much the same situation. TECHNICALLY, on review, it’s unclear, you can’t overturn it. But REALLY it was probably incomplete. So, by rule, technically, since it’s unclear, you can’t overturn it… but in fairness, you should… it’s the right thing to do. SO…… anyone who may be disagreeing with me up to now based on some Patriot Hate you have in your heart, you maybe should shift your ire to that SB game. THAT was a truly dubious play. The Raiders Snow Bowl… not so much. Correct call. Best team won. Zero controversy. It deserves to be on this list for its horrific weather. But if anyone thinks it’s on this list because of the controversy……. Nope. Zero controversy. Right call. Best team won. Simple as that, honestly. I’m actually regretting typing this much, except I know how defensive Raiders fans still are over this. It’s dumb. Why did I type all this? Waste of my time. The right team won. The better team won. Maybe I should just circle back to my praise of Dan Fouts. Amen and kudos to him for being the only person on the losing end in this video to behave like a mature adult. Team Raiders are a bunch of infantile clowns. Take a lesson. Fouts exemplifies how a professional accepts loss.

Two more points from the Ice Bowl. First Jethro Pugh had wrecked hands from Frostbite he got in that game. Still he played until 1975. Second, a four time coach in a Super Bowl almost ended up being the hero. The Cowboys called a halfback option late in the third quarter that Dan Reeves completed to Lance Rentzel for a 50 yard touchdown to take the lead.

When I was in high school in South Jersey, we played a game in Atlantic City at old Bader Field. No matter when you played at this stadium it was always cold and windy as it was just off the bay and right next to a small airport. This particular game it was so windy that the other team's punter punted the ball and the wind blew it back over his head. We ended up winning something like 20-6 where we barely passed the ball and converted only 1 2 point conversion.

To Mike Craig: Good point. I’m sure Winslow was close to heat stroke from the week before. That can affect you for more than a day or two, if it is bad. And Winslow was probably more important to those San Diego teams than the receivers were. Most safeties and linebackers couldn’t cover him, so he was a severe matchup problem.

To Robert Levine: What I recently thought about was what the two extremes in temperature in back to back games probably did to Kellen ( And, maybe the rest of the Chargers) in Cincinnati, the next week. Who knows if he was fully recovered. He had to have had heat exhaustion ( And who knows if other players weren’t in similar shape. We just saw Kellen, but the conditions were very hot and very humid that day.). The aftermath of that stuff can affect you for a bit of time, after the fact. So, the Chargers may have been far from 100% as a whole. Then there is the contrast of going from the climate they trained in ( San Diego) and the climate they played in the previous week ( Miami) to, basically, Siberia. Like I said, I was in Ohio on that day. I am 61, but it is the coldest day I have ever seen in this state during my lifetime. And I am used to it. A team that trains in warm, moderate weather all year has no hope of adjusting in a few days time. To piggy back on your initial point, it is no wonder San Diego never out up a fight. The immediate temperature was only a part of it. They tried, but didn’t seem to have a prayer anyway. And I am sure Kellen, and many of their players were far less than 100%.

@@sheilapasquini6232 Yea, you ought to look it up. It's called Timeline: Fog Bowl. It's sadly not on KZfaq anymore other than some small clips of it, but it was really a well done documentary. Anyway, the main reason Buddy Ryan didn't want to suspend the game was because he was ticked off at the refs for how they were officiating the game before the fog rolled in, so to him, it was an equalizer. To be fair, he wasn't entirely wrong. Cunningham did throw for over 400 yards in that game. The problem was the team kept turning the ball over in the red zone, which is why I roll my eyes at Eagle fans crying foul about it. The Eagles had chance after chance to win that game, but when you turn the ball over numerous times in the red zone, then you can't blame the refs for losing you the game.
