I miss the old uniforms of the Falcons--and the good old days when teams threw the ball downfield, back before "3 yards and a cloud of dust" described the passing game.
The beginning of the end for the NY Jets. They would soon have a major historic collapse the rest of the season. Similar to this season 2023 Philadelphia Eagles.
The 1986 Falcons had an absolutely BRUTAL schedule (9 of their 16 games were against teams that made the 1985 playoffs)
This is an excellent uniform matchup
Been trying to find this game forever, TY
Don Criqui was THE MAN when I was a kid in the 80’s.
Thank you for uploading more classic NFL games
17 completions in 18 attempts in the first half. That's incredible!

And they proceeded to go 10-6. A collapse!
Thank you for preserving these😅

Love Gerald Riggs. Very good back, but he’s legendary for paying his dealer with a check and writing cocaine in the memo
At this point in 1986 the NY Giants were the afterthought at 8-2. Jets collapsed from here.

I was at this game having relocated from NY to Atlanta. I remember this season well and injuries ko'd the Jets that season. It was a shame.
OSHA Recordables 86'd the Jets
