My first Packers game was the 1967 playoff game in Milwaukee (Our hometown) against the Rams. Cold but sunny, my dad and I. NEVER forget it.
Great video, I didn't know this was a whole series.. Im a Raiders Fan but still LOVE to learn about Other NFL teams
I enjoyed the 70's Packers hopefully they will return to this greatness soon
Coach Lombardi is the greatest NFL coach…No disrespect to coach Shula , coach Brown, coach Landry, or coach Bellichik…
Wjhat a bold video about the state of race issues! I am a Vikings fan, but I respect what Lombardi did as a human being.
Dan Devive was incompetent
Many don't know, V.L pioneered "rule blocking" as a universal blocking scheme applied to ANY offense
vsANY defense. Since,ALL power offense,at all levels, have used this.Jerry Kramer is a treasure among treasures.
Lombardi probably would have won more Superbowl championships had he not gotten sick…..
Rams traded • John Hadl to Packers for • 1975 first round pick (#9-Mike Fanning) • 1975 second round pick (#28-Monte Jackson) • 1975 third round pick (#61-Geoff Reece) • 1976 first round pick (#8-Dennis Lick) • 1976 second round pick (#39-Pat Thomas) on 1974-10-22
Outstanding!!
The thing is the Vikings were just a better team in the 70's with Bud Grant as coach and Fran Tarkenton as QB. Even though the Vikings lost those Super Bowls in that 1970's decade, they still had that run of years of winning the division and making it to the Super Bowl. The Packers sadly just didn't have the players to keep up with the Vikings. Neither did the Bears, Lions, and eventually Bucs until 79.
Lombardi studied personality. That is not talked about in the videos that are public so as not to offend. He knew the personality make ups that would win. That would not give up. That would constantly build. Dan Reeves similar. But not as successful.
"Great Losses"
That's the Mark Murphy b.s. PR machine in a nutshell…😅
Agree ………………. Excellent Video ……… Loved The Lombardi Packers …………… Best Uneees In The NFL ………. Stayed True ,,,, to The Colors ……….And Design ……….. THANK U PACKERS !
My dad was mentioned in Chester Marcol's book. He was his rehab counselor. Michael Wilson, that's my dad. That's my connection to the Packers. I remember my older brother competing against his son in track & field. Chester Marcol is honestly one of my heroes. The way he battled and won against adversity.
I clicked on this thinking I was going to watch a video about the 1970's Packers. Nope, same old stuff from the same people. I what point do they stop making everything about race? At what point do they realize that our past is our past and we cannot change it but we've learned from it and are now better because of it and it's time to stop talking about it and move on.
39:53 as a browns fan the worst trade actually now is the Deshaun Watson trade we gave up all that draft picks for him
The glory days were replaced by the gory days
(31:34ff.) McCarren is wrong in saying Brockington "was the first back in history to gain 1,000 yards 3 seasons in a row."
Jim Brown was (1958,'59,'60). And Jim Taylor was the first back to run for 1,000 yards 5 years in a row (1960, '61, '62, '63, '64).
