Being able to watch these classic games from the 60's is just amazing. Seeing these teams in their retro uniforms and helmets. Seeing these teams now compared to then is so interesting. Plus the games were much more intense! Great game!
I can understand the minor errors can be galling, but I have to say the hard work that went into sourcing the material and syncing up the radio feeds is well done. I grew up in the days when radio still was the primary way to get news, info, sports, etc. We had two TV channels until we got a better antenna, if that gives you an idea. I never got to see AFL games, but we knew about the fantastic players they had, and looking at these shows how exciting the style of play was. They helped open the game up, and I love reading or watching what I can find about it.
Thank you for your comments. I’m currently out of the country and plan to correct those things I can. The video editor in RUclips should allow small cuts and inserts. We’ll see.
When Keith Lincoln was forced out of the game on Mike Stratton's hit, it severely hampered the Chargers. Lincoln, along with the Chargers' other halfback Paul Lowe, were their chief offensive threats. In the AFL Championship game of 1963, the Chargers clobbered the Patriots 51-10 with Lincoln being voted the MVP. He gained 206 yards in only 13 rushing attempts, caught seven passes for 123 yards, completed one pass, and scored two touchdowns. The place kicker for the Bills, Pete Gogolak, was the first soccer style kicker in American professional football. After kicking for two years with the Bills, he "played out the option" in his contract and signed with the New York Giants of the NFL as a free agent. This helped to spark the player war between the two leagues. The quarterback for the Chargers was Tobin Rote. He quarterbacked the Detroit Lions to the NFL title in 1957 and also the Chargers to the AFL title in 1963.
Great video! Cool to see guys like Jack Kemp and Paul Maguire in their playing days. (I wonder if Maguire would try to call first downs on close spots from the sidelines when he was playing.)
My dad was at this game, I was just a tyke. He was not out on the field, just like his son and eldest daughter did not go on to the field when the Bills beat the Jets for the 1988 AFC East title.
Forget the 4 Super Bowl losses in a row… how about being world champs 2 years in a row, RIGHT BEFORE they start calling it the “Super Bowl”? The cruelest part of the Buffalo Curse isn’t the losses… it’s the TEASE.
I like the video but the AFL championship game (1964) was broadcast by ABC. NBC took over in 1965. Radio broadcast is good. Most of the color footage is post 1964.
Good catch! The quality of the only ABC Into I could find was too poor. I edited this one to add more game clips and even added one of the Dolphins who did not play until 1966. I hope to be able to use it again on future projects.
Here on RUclips, there is some video footage of an AFL preseason game on ABC that was broadcast in 1962 (I think) on an episode of “ABC’s Wide World Of Sports”. It involved the San Diego Chargers at a stadium that was still under construction. If includes the opening footage, with graphics promoting Mercury Automobiles.
Anyone else remember fans grilling burgers and dogs up in the stands and Ralph Wilson walking around meeting people during games? It seems like a totally different sport and world now, and it sucks if you ask me.
The fans tore the goal posts down with 26 seconds left. Maybe the fact that they can't seem to win the Super Bowl is the football equivalent of the curse of the Bambino -- the curse of the goal posts.
I don't think that holds water. After all, even after tearing down the goalpost in the 1964 title game, the Bills still won the AFL Championship AGAIN the very next year in San Diego's Balboa Stadium to become back-to-back AFL Champs (1964 & 1965). But then disappointment set in, as the ageing Bills -- now without their AFL championship coach Lou Saban -- still earned the right to go to the AFL Championship game for the THIRD straight year following the 1966 season ... only to lose the title game to the KC Chiefs, who then went on to appear as the AFL representative in the first ever Super Bowl against the Packers. I agree with the assessment that, IF the NFL had agreed to play an AFL-NFL World Championship Game (i.e., "Super Bowl") following the 1964 and 1965 seasons, the Bills would have beaten both Cleveland in 1964 and Green Bay in 1965. The mid-1960s Bills with Lou Saban as coach were the AFL team MOST equivalent to NFL teams -- a terrific defense coupled with a great running game/ball-control offense. Moreover, the Bills had two additional weapons that NFL teams of that era didn't possess: (1) a dangerous dual-threat QB in Jack Kemp who not only had a great arm but was also a superb runner (Kemp was "Steve Young" before Steve Young arrived in the NFL -- in fact, Kemp held the pro football record for rushing TDs by a QB for about 30-some years until Steve Young finally broke his record!) and (2) a lethally accurate (especially for the era) Field Goal kicker in Pete Gogolak -- who introduced soccer style kicking into pro football and also drove consistently deeper kickoffs compared to the straight-on kicking style most other teams' kickers used. In fact, it was the NY Giants' POACHING of the Bills' kicker Gogolak following the 1965 season championship game that really IGNITED a new phase of the NFL-AFL "war" for players that FORCED the NFL to agree to a merger just a few months later in June of 1966. There had been an "unwritten gentleman's agreement" between the owners of the two leagues that, although players were "fair game" up for grabs between the two teams (one AFL, one NFL) that had drafted them, ONCE the player had been signed, there would be NO "POACHING" or "STEALING" of the players-- even if their contract had run out and the teams were going to need to hammer out a new contract with the player [N.B. back then, there was NO such thing as "free agency;" the "reserve clause" in all standard player contracts stipulated that the team held the player's exclusive rights in perpetuity unless/until the team TRADED the player away, even if the player contract had expired and a new one was needed). Once the Giants decided to STEAL the Bills kicker, the gloves came off and new AFL Commissioner AL DAVIS (who had reluctantly succeeded WW II flying ace Joe Foss as AFL Commissioner) retaliated by signing a whole host of NFL STAR players (SF QB John Brodie, LA QB Roman Gabriel, Chicago TE Mike Ditka, and others) to "FUTURES Contracts" that would become effective as soon as their respective NFL contracts ran out. The NFL -- horrified, and realizing that THEY had "let the genie out of the bottle" -- raised the white flag of surrender and quickly put together a secret merger negotiated between Dallas GM Tex Schram and KC owner Lamar Hunt BEHIND Al Davis' back !!!! Rightfully furious and disgusted, Al Davis quit as AFL Commissioner. Some of the negotiated "terms" of the merger to which Lamar Hunt had capitulated were the following: a) The AFL would cease to exist after the 1969 season (the AFL's 10th season), and would be folded into the NFL for the 1970 NFL season; b) The AFL's "futures contracts" with NFL star players would be voided and the NFL players would remain property of their NFL teams [yet, disgracefully, the NFL Giants were NOT forced to return Gogolak to the Bills -- double standard rules favoring the NFL] !!! c) The two leagues would begin playing a "World Championship" Game beginning in January 1967 right after the upcoming 1966 season, and would begin playing a limited number of inter-league "exhibition games" during summer training camp beginning prior to the 1967 football season d) The AFL was forced to pay $$$ "indemnity" to the NFL !!!!!!!!!!! e) Effective immediately (i.e., in 1966), the AFL lost its full independence insofar as there would be only ONE "Commissioner" of all pro football in the U.S., and that was going to be the NFL's Pete Rozelle -- with the AFL "Commissioner" rebranded "President" of the AFL's football operations in a subordinate role to Rozelle f) Beginning in early 1967, the two leagues would get together to hold a common draft of college players, thereby ending the bidding wars between the two leagues, each of which drafted many of the same players. I suspect that this "treachery" by KC's Lamar Hunt and the NFL behind Al Davis' back (at least that's how I'm sure Al Davis saw it, and not totally without reason) added additional "fuel to the fire" beyond the ordinary "division rivalry" that would exist between the Oakland Raiders and KC Chiefs. I suspect that hatred is what added to the on-field nastiness and cheap shots in Raider-Chiefs games throughout the late 1960s and beyond !!!
@@wingedbuffalo4670 You have a lot of insights and I commend you for the depth of your understanding of that period. I admired the upstart nature of the AFL, and in turn the ABA. I grew up in an ABA region and wished like anything the league could have made it to see a real merger. From what I understand, NBA Players Association chief Oscar Robertson blocked a proposed combined draft that would have soon precipitated an ABA-NBA merger. I admired the Big O, except for that move. But I can see it from his perspective. Two drafts make for higher salaries.
@@brianarbenz1329 Hi Brian ... Many thanks. I was a young kid at the end of the AFL and only started understanding football in the late 1960s -- it was always a bittersweet reality that I had "just missed" seeing the Bills be a great team ... at the end of the 1960s the Bills had become terrible :( I NEVER knew all this "backstory intrigue" and NFL manipulation about the merger until I got older -- I just knew that the Raiders and Chiefs were BITTER rivals and that Al Davis hated Pete Rozelle and the old guard NFL owners ... but it eventually made much more sense once the additional info came to light to my then-adult mind. As for basketball, while I was continuing to grow up in the 1970s, of course I heard about the ABA and its red, white, and blue basketball, but I never knew the Big O was head of the NBA Players' Association or that he had vetoed an NBA-ABA merger or common draft (he probably recognized that the end of the bidding wars for football players meant player salaries would start to stabilize, and players would NOT be in favor of that (even though player salary certainty -- more or less -- leads to stability and prosperity of the entire league and all the franchises. Nowadays, the owners and players for all the sports have a negotiated "salary cap" to keep player salaries increasing (in total, even if not for every individual player) -- yet increasing in a manageable fashion from year to year. For a short period of time, we had the Buffalo Braves of the NBA -- and then they were gone for good once Toronto got their franchise.
@@wingedbuffalo4670 The reason that Gogolak wasn't returned to the Bills was he was a free agent. His contract with Buffalo had expired and the Bills weren't interested in giving him a raise. Pete Gogolak is one of the most important people in the history of the NFL. As the first soccer-style kicker, his power and accuracy led other teams to get soccer-style kickers and within a decade, the straight-on kicker was practically extinct. Better kickers led to rule changes in kicking situations, and long field goals; once a sign of desperation, are common. And his signing with the Giants was the impetus for the merger that led to football becoming America's game.
@@brianarbenz1329 I recently read the book "The Big Time" by Michael MacCambridge, that details how sports fundamentaly changed in the 1970s. One story is how George Mikan f'ed the ABA. The ABA owners needed a big time player to get some legitimacy, like the AFL did with Joe Namath. They put together a million dollars to give to Kareem Abdul-Jabbar to play for the then New York Nets, his hometown ABA team. When Mikan met with Abdul-Jabbar, he took Kareem's aloofness and wariness as naivitee; and offered him a basic deal. When MIken went back to the owners, he said he could tell him about the million in negotiations. Kareem took the deal with the Milwaukee Bucks and Mikan was fired as ABA Commisioner. Imagine a team with Kareem and Dr. J, they would have torn the ABA up.
@@VintageProFootballI know the AFL encouraged the networks to cover it in color. ABC opted for B & W, which disappointed the league. So maybe the bright stripes were to send a message to the networks. NBC, which out more into it sports coverage than other networks, gladly went with color when it started covering AFL games.
THAT GAME WAS PLAY ON A SATURDAY AFTERNOON THAT I STARTED WATCHING THE AFL IF THEY PLAY THE SB IN 1964 THE BROWNS WOULD HAVE BEATEN THE BILLS BECAUSE THE BROWNS HAD JIM BROWN THATS WHY KENNETHO
The 1964-65 Buffalo Bills would have beaten Lombardi and the Packers if the first Super Bowl was played after the 1965 season. The Bills defense was just too good!💯
I've heard some of the old NFL players say that the Bills defense was better than any NFL defense in that period. It is too bad they couldn't sustain it for one more year and beat KC for SB I.
Great find. Back when Buffalo could be champions by winning the league. I loved the AFL. It gave opportunities the NFL wouldn't give.
Being able to watch these classic games from the 60's is just amazing. Seeing these teams in their retro uniforms and helmets. Seeing these teams now compared to then is so interesting. Plus the games were much more intense! Great game!

ABC had the broadcast rights to the AFL games from 1960 to 1965. NBC had the broadcast rights from 1966 to 1970.
Actually it was 1965 that NBC got the AFL from ABC.
Actually, ABC only had the broadcast rights from 1960-64, then NBC picked them up from 1965-69.
Love that intro!
Van Miller and Ralph Hubbell on the call.
Those photos show Buffalo just as I remember it. I was pretty excited about the result as an 8 yr. old.
