- Pro Football Hall of Fame defensive end Gino Marchetti comes in at number 39 on NFL Films' "The Top 100: NFL's Greatest Players" list produced in 2010.
Gino Marchetti has passed away at 93....R.I.P. One of THE best DE who ever played the game!!!
Americans were just different in that era. They fought for their country, came back and played for the love of the game. These are the men we owe so much to but give so little credit. And his 6'4" 240 would be 6'4" 280 of muscle mass with today's science, diet, and weight/strength training. Gino would be an all-pro in any era.
Agreed....coach Don Shula once said that Gino was one of the few "older era" players that could have been a great player in the 1970's and 80's too.
6-4 249 was his official height and weight. And you are correct, with today's regiment that is 6-4 275 easily. The dude was athletic as hell and strong as an ox. He would just run around you and if not he would toss you to the ground like a sack of potatoes,...he was a big influence on Deacon Jones who basically invented the word "sack."
Oh shut up. They were forced to fight in those horrid wars. Stop romanticizing war.
I always thought Gino was taller maybe 6'6".
I am proud of my parents. The Greatest Generation was not lost on us as their children, not a by a long shot. RIP Gino. True hero.
Gino fought in the Battle of the Bulge in World War II. Think of that, and the NFL is a cakewalk after that.
Those Colts teams had lots of exceptional talent and hall of famers, Gino is definitely one of them.
Exceptional is an under statement. The first full-time o line ma in the hall of fame, jim parker. 3 time mvp qb Johnny unitas. Raymond berry, John Mackey, Lenny Moore, gino Marchetti
After Fighting Hitler's soldiers in the below zero temperatures and snow storms, I think NFL was a cake-walk for this man!
Still are
Great comment....those guys back then were a different breed...we.owe then alot..
Often think about him on Memorial Day
Gotta think the Nazi's started to question going to war when they saw Marchetti coming at them.
@@mikeforte7585 LOL! No they weren't. Stop romanticizing going to war, it doesn't make you a hero.
"Fought in the Battle of the Bulge at age 17"! Nuff fucking Said Period!
He fought that battle when he was still an offensive Tackle! He Tackled Hitler's forces and moved the tank carrier to the goal line -- BERLIN!
I was a kid but I am so glad I got to see these guys play. The old school variety of NFL was so much more exciting as a fan. Not as much passing for sure but the hits where brutal and they never stopped. I played in HS as a offensive lineman in the 70s. It required more skill to block then as opposed to the summo type blocking they have now. The grey area is also gone. The rule changes allow the passing game to be what it is now and makes it harder to sack the passer. 9 sacks in one game is goat.
What's impressive is there's three separate clips on this video alone that show him blowing past Forrest Gregg #75 and sacking #15 Bart Starr of Green Bay. Both of them are on the top 100 list as well.
Vince Lombardi said Forrest Gregg is the greatest football player he ever coached. Forrest saying that about Gino is quite the compliment. Gino is one of the DE on the NFL 100 All Time Team
Baltimore Colts organization was awesome.......coaches that went on to greatness, Bill Belicheck, Chuck Knoll, Don Shula, Don McCafferty all coached in Baltimore and won Super Bowls......and the talent of ball players was second to none......
Yeah they were great...I lived there...Until Irsay bought the team...then it started going downhill. They drafted one of the most talented QB's to ever play the game in the 1970s named Bert Jones from LSU (the Ruston Rocket) who was NFL Player of the Year in 1976 and had a triple digit QB rating the 3 seasons he stayed halfway healthy. They never did get great receivers for him besides Carr (Doughty was a possession receiver) and Lydell Mitchell and Jones never reached their true potential. Jones could run and throw off his back leg 70 yards...the league had not seen anyone like him at the time. Bill Belicheck said he is probably the most talented QB he ever saw including those today and yet the Colts mishandled him, never rehabbed his separated shoulder properly, and traded him to the Rams where he played 3 or 4 games and retired.
If you look at the Giants and Colts coaching staff back in the day, they were loaded.
NINE SACKS IN ONE GAME
bruh, its a shame that his total sack numbers weren't recorded. his numbers would be unbreakable to this day for anyone.
@@donalddeluxe6407 for real, dude. Guy was a monster.
@@donalddeluxe6407 The Colts coaches kept sack records. He is the King. Most in a single game, most in a season , and most all time. Problem is they are unofficial.
Wow 9 sacks
@PassDa Blunt that's filthy.
His teammate from the Colts, HOF WR Raymond Berry once said, "give me a bunch of Gino Marchetti's, I'll go to war with anybody"...
Worked at one of his Gino's restaurants in Springfield, Virginia in the late '60's while in high school in Alexandria. Didn't see him play but definitely knew who he was.
Many a sunday afternoon in the early 60's I'd watch just amazed at Gino's unbeliveable quickness and moves. Nine sacks in one game sounds rather a low estimate. Just fantastic.
It would appear as though he could simply sack a QB at will.
I wear his jersey with pride. Dude was a beast, and an example to be set for not only all sportsmen to come in their play, but an example of character. They just dont come like this anymore. But they should.
Oh shut up. There's plenty of people with character in today's world. You never knew the man so how do you know what type of person he was?
These candy ass players of today couldnt even fathom fighting in a war at 17 no less.
Those men of years past suffered, bled and fought so the generations that follow them can live in a world without the threat of a World War.
He and Johnny U my two all time favorites
Just here to pay the respect to this legend. RIP to the nfl first great defensive end💪💪
GINO was the best the Colts had to offer Very humble on and off the field I believe that almost all Balto Colts fans has his autograph FACT during his career he never received 15 yard penalty That's amazing in itself GINO YOU WILL BE MISSED
this dude was the definition of built different
I always like how through all these NFL films, these guys have career games against the Lions.
Classic line bro!
BUT REALLY GUYS... NINE SACKS IN ONE GAME... FROM A GUY THAT FOUGHT THE BATTLE OF THE BULGE
They say he was the "first great defensive end". No one can question his greatness, but as far as being first, what about Len Ford?
Ed Sprinkle of the Bears
RIP Geno
0:45 Damn Gino, you didn't have to do my man Bart Starr like that. Jeezus.
OUCH! That had to feel like being hit by a bus.
Never knew about him. Pretty cool.
I had never heard of him and I was a packers fan as a young boy in the early 60's...he must have been playing then...he sounds like not only a great ball player but a great American.
Steve Fowler dude is a beast. Right up there with Reggie, deacon and Bruce
WAY to low!!! Marchetti and Deacon Jones...the 2 best DE's in football history...
Jim Cushman Bruce Smith?
Jim Cushman top 5 yes
Jim Cushman
Joe Greene>Marchetti
Doug Atkins too.
Bruce Smith. Greatest of all time. Out of all the greatest DE in NFL history Bruce Smith was the ONLY one who played most of his career in a 3-4 scheme...which is much harder for a DE to be successful in than a 4-3 scheme because of where they typically line up. The fact that Bruce Smith piled up 200 career sacks in a 3-4 defense is incredible and he was just as dominant against the run as he was rushing the passer
Baltimore is a lucky city
Gino was one of the original Baltimore Bullies......
He went to Antioch high school were I go
AlbertoFootball Ruiz in CA
RIP dude
0:58 I love that!
🎵Ginos Gives You Freedom Of Choice!🎶 So Come On Everybody Lets Rejoice!🎵
Ween Ewbanks was a genius.
He's 246 pounds...Clowney is 255 so that's comparable
Rip giant
Great hair too
Does any1 how many total sacks he had in his career estimation?
Whoa 😮
He said he had 9 sacks a game and I believe him.
Antioch California
When men played football
RIP
It's so funny how players in this era look like old men, like they're in their 50s instead of in their 30s.
I am old enough to have seen him play. No one of his era, even Doug Atkins, was even close. Deacon Jones, nowhere in Marchetti's league. Putting Lawrence Taylor aside (as a truly great pass rusher, but no Marchetti against the run), the only player I can think of that equals, or perhaps surpasses, Gino M. is Reggie White.
Why does he look like Johnny Cash
Wasn't he the guy who split an opponents helmet in half.
Sup
What is the song at 1:15
Tino Longo i dont remember exactly but look up nfl films music playlist with over 100 songs, i remember it was one of the first ones
Tino Longo - David Robidoux, " building a champion "

Ed Too Tall Jones was no slouch and I'm a devout Steelers fan!!!!
No dude. Too Tall Jones was NEVER in Gino Marchetti's class!! Please!
@@theprofessor8589 Too Tall was a good DE but he is no Gino Marchetti
@Doc Santoro You got that right!
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 gino🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Forth!
Troy Palamau?
Polamalu
What's better: him or those burgers with the Gino sauce?
My rewards program amount says the latter
Weeb. Under rated . In every way. Football.
I bet he didn't knell when the National anthem was played.
Steve Fowler true dat
Nor did anyone else in his time. They were real warriors, soldiers, patriots. Footballl was just a hobby that barely paid the rent.
He would have if he were playing today. Stop with the 'patroitic' bullshit.
@@theprofessor8589 Nah I dont think so. Gino came from the greatest generation...Kids today come from the dumbest
@@jeremythompson9122 Today's times and issues would influence him. He was at a time when those issues were not thought of in terms of being more sympathetic of others. This generation is not 'dumb', they are a lot smarter and aware than you think. It's more of a lost value system that makes them more narcisstic than past generations.

Compare that classy man to today's drug dealing, rap singing, undisciplined, profane, gangstas with the Nike contracts...
There's no reason to say that man,but start hate 😊
Paisan

A lot like Joey Bosa
Lol Joey Bosa not quite at Gino's level yet
third
still not in the hall of fame somehow... incredible how he isn't.
or was that some other Italian sounding named dude?
Must have been another guy. Gino has been in the Hall of Fame.
HOF in 1972...
Kibs Kibs are you sure
Gino been in the HOF since 1972
Too bad the National Felon League is garbage now. I haven’t watched for decades. Used to be fantastic but now it’s 💩
