this is why they are called the raiders legends. i was born and raised in oakland no one knew where oakland was only san francisco was renowned back in 1960. but as the raiders got better and played kick your ass football. then people knew where oakland was. THE CITY THAT HAS THE OAKLAND RAIDERS. the raiders put oakland on the map. THEY WILL ALWAYS BE THE OAKLAND RAIDERS.
The Steelers didn't attempt orchestrating no advantage based upon illicit practices by their field maintenance crew ,the Steelers wr's group actually avg a superior yds per catch avg then the raiders celebrated group ,thus the ice field inclement weather obstacles created just as much difficulty for the Steelers as the raiders ,the Steelers would have literally cut their nose off to spite their face by sabotaging the field ,negatively impacted their own wr's . The raiders were a formidable rushing team with Mark Van Eeghen leading their charge ,thus they were a multifaceted offensive machine , fully capable of adopting to difficult game circumstances, remember Pittsburgh didn't exactly have a superb day running the ball ,so any percieved advantage aiding Pittsburgh wasn't because of unfavorable field conditions. The Steelers were simply the better team in 75 between the two excellent ball clubs . The hypocrisy of any raider or their fanbase bellowing unfounded accusations of foul play by the Steelers for deploying foul strategy by having their field maintenance leave areas of the field uncovered ,when the raiders have been accused by many a opponent " Hank Stram" for tampering with the raiders home playing field by watering it down , and being a proud loyal follower of the mantra ,if your not cheating your not trying to win ,just win baby slogan . No team in NFL history has ever embraced being a defiant entity ,fully intended upon obtaining any psychologically advantage over opposition,even by openly bragging about their penchant to bend the rules .My respect towards the raiders emmense contributions to the AFL NFL , on the field and off has never wavered , the AFL, NFL story cannot be written or spoken without the raiders rich legacy being amongst the top echeleon recited , nevertheless,the only reason the raiders lost the 75 conference championship was because Pittsburgh was better .

Not according to that cheapskate Davis family.
What area of Oakland were you raised?
The Steelers had an unfair advantage in the AFC Championship Game, the ice rink of a field
Yes, they left the field uncovered to slow down the faster Raiders. Like the Dolphins did to the Jets in the 1982 AFC Championship.

HOLY TOLEDO!!!
Playing on artificial turf during those years was like playing on cement.
Back when the Raiders were the Raiders days are long gone
😅 you felt it
They will always be know as the Oakland Raiders
Thanks to greedy pig Al Davis and his family they will not.
A lot of players were passing gas throughout this game. I was there and it was incredible gas
40:04 The Reverse Heidi Game
The dirty hit at 14:49 would get a player suspended today.
Perfectly legal then.
I guess the deep ball game of the Steelers wasn't affected by the ice really? Steelers lost to Oakland in 76 without Bleir or Harris so?
Vikings,rams,raiders Steelers, cowgirls, epic battles
6 teams ruled their divisions in the 70s
Rooster and Mother Hubbard
The Dolphins lost Csonka, kiick, n Warfield. Hard to be great after losing those players to the WFL.
The good old days...before the NFL went woke.
Before 1993 free agency and the salary cap
