Can you imagine the penalty flags that would rain down from the rafters if guys could still tackle like that??? They hit with purpose and hit HARD

 

[Saint Droopy]

Man they were killing people on there...

I counted several and I'm not even done watching it.

Oh how I long for the days of real football.

They played with Attitude!!!!!!!!

Shame we never could get decent offense to do right by that great defense!
If we would have they would of gone down as one of the best Defenses ever.
They always had to play with there backs to the wall.

At least we know the REAL reason for the great play from our defense back then...


BIG helmet logos!!! :17:

1st...can we make sure today's defense watches that?

2nd...Which tackles were illegal?

I was looking for horse collar more than anything.

Are you guys referring to the gang tackles?

Also, I forgot how physical Swilling was when he was younger. Towards the end he became more of a pure pass rusher.

How bout those Vaughan Johnson hits? That guy really was Darth Vader in cleats.

The only downside would be that that defense would probably cost us about 70% of our salary cap.

Geezus, those guys were violent. Only Ray Lewis from today's NFL compares.

That front 7 would make offenses pee in their pants.
