Walter Payton broke two of Jim Brown's records during a 20-7 victory over the New Orleans Saints in 1984. The call of Joe McConnell and Brad Palmer was recorded over the TV video. The majority of their radio audience watched the game on TV with the sound turned off and the radio turned on. Their broadcasts produced more revenue than any other radio station doing NFL games, but WBBM lost the rights following the 1984 season.

Simply beautiful. He breaks the record, then helps the opponents up after the play. The greatest running back ever.

I can't make the case that he's the greatest at running the football, but he is the greatest all-around RB I've ever seen.

I watched this game on television. One of the things I remember from the highlights (not from the broadcast) was how classy the New Orleans Saints were after Payton's run. It was like they were pushing each other in an effort to get to Walter to congratulate him.

That is incorrect...the Bears game started at noon Chicago time. The disaster in San Diego started around 3pm, over an hour after Walter had broken the record.

I would have loved to see his reaction to Emmitt Smith breaking his record

@joshlight6892 Жыл бұрын

Walter was all class he'd have been the first to congratulate Emmitt. He only died two or three years before Emmitt broke the record so I suspect he knew Emmitt would probably get it unless he got hurt. In fact they knew each other, Payton actually thought the world of Emmitt and encouraged him to keep playing after one of Emmitt Smith's injuries when Emmitt thought his career might be over. Ironic that he encouraged the man who would eventually break his record, but Walter was that kind of guy. He was human, I'm sure it would have stung him a little but he would have been happy for Emmitt just the same.
