Dan Fouts talking about John Unitas always puts chills on. These cats doing a second show together where it's all breaking down Unitas film would be immense.
Justin is a throwback himself. When he went back into the Chiefs game after suffering a hairline fracture to the ribs. He showed true grit and earned my respect as a fan of football. I am a vikings fan though yet I love his gameplay.
So fascinating how Fouts was discussing less about film and more the personal of those games, and what they meant for him… While Herbert was strictly technical and gave some analysis
Good spot! Justin is very shy. He was both on camera, which he seeks to avoid at all cost, and also watching his own film with one of his life's biggest heroes, in Fouts. Ex-Duck. Ex-Charger. It is easier for him to talk shop. Plus, Justin doesn't have the breadth of experience that Dan does to get to the place where everything slows down enough and relationships are deep enough to reflect on the personal aspects of the game. This was lovely. Grew up a Fouts fan and became a Ducks fan when I moved to Oregon thirty years ago. Became a huge Justin fan and that carried over to the Bolts when they drafted Justin.
Fouts is, of course the greatest chargers quarterback ever. My hope is that Justin Herbert will bring home something Dan hasn’t able to get, a Super Bowl Championship
Somebody below stated that Rivers was better 🤦🏼 Regular Season Stats Overall I'll agree ... Playoffs Rivers was a Massive Choke Artist and had Nowhere Near as much success as Fouts did and Herbert we'll find out in the future (side note Humphries was better than Rivers too playoffs wise given Humphries and Fouts BOTH Took Their Chargers Teams to the Super Bowl! Where as Rivers Never Sniffed It Which I Think Is Truly Sad!) This was a fun video and I'm not even a Chargers Fan BUT Love The Nostalgia Football though ... Maholmes Allen Herbert ... Those 3 make Great Rivals for each other Carr sorta too based off last game of the year but either way that makes Herbert more interesting and I Hated him in College He Always Destroyed My Huskies UGH! I can see Herbert getting Chargers back to the Super Bowl and winning it all
Pretty cool stuff here. I was hoping for more of Fouts talking analytically about how the Coryell offense is still a major component in how offenses are run today. That said, it was cool to get personal insights about the players and coaches he was involved with. I also liked seeing Fouts 1st TD pass. On a sartorial note, could the Chargers PLEASE wear the yellowish pants with the dark blue jerseys? It'd remind me a lot of the Coryell era and would be a unique look for today's NFL. To top it all off, it's wise that the two main games they talked about with Fouts are two games i'd show to anyone who wasn't around in that era. It'd show that football back then wasn't "boring" but could be pretty fun and quasi modern to watch.
The funny thing is, even 70s/early 80s style defensive slugfests were more fun than low scoring games today because defense was so tough back then. if the 1980 Chargers were around today they'd be a Super Bowl dynasty without a doubt. The fact they did what they did when they did says a lot
For me as a Ducks fan of nearly 62 years and choosing Mel Renfro as my sports hero, this is and awesome video to have now, love Dan Fouts, he was a country club in Portland Oregon I was working and my great friend and waitress got his autograph when told her to thank me for the great burger, he just wrote Bombs away Terry and his signature. As for Justin Herbert I know people from his neighborhood and actually used park around the area and walked to Autzen Stadium from there as he did. Had actually been trying keep tabs on him when he was a freshman in high school having of him from friends in Eugene and was thrilled when Oregon finally offered and not surprised that he eventually started as a freshman, not surprisingly in my mind he is doing well BUT really didn't see this rise to fame coming like it has, it has been my absolute favorite sports story to follow as a Ducks, Chargers and Cowboys fan, I have told many people that I honestly have a strong sense of pride when I talk about Justin, just know we are from the same area. He is definitely a sense of pride for an entire community, and then put the Beaded one with him, Justin Herbert, I have actually been waiting for this since Dan whispered to Justin at his golf Tournament last year that he would like to get together with him iwhen is is in LA, I knew it would be fun. I am not disappointed 😌 Thank you. PS. More please they could a regular gig do Ducks and Chargers analysis.
At the start of the '05 season, Feeley was with the Dolphins and supposed to be the starting QB, but Saban went with Gus Frerotte instead. Then, halfway thru the season, they traded Feeley to SD for Cleo Lemon. Being 3rd string behind Brees and Rivers, Feeley never took a snap. So he suited up as a Charger but never actually played for them.
Just watching this again after a year and I love both of these players. Dan Fouts and Charlie Joiner was the reason I became a Chargers fan. I was 12 years old outside in the cold, rain or shine with my friends playing tackle football pretending to be both of them. Herbert with Harbaugh will be exciting to watch. GO CHARGERS!!!
Excellent. Chargers are probably my favorite team after the 49ers, and as I've said previously on this channel I'll always have an affinity for the 1978-1985 Air Coryell saga. Remarkable that both of these cloud maestros went to Oregon, and are now playing for the same franchise.
Uncle Dan!!! My mom & his wife were ballet dancers together when I was a kid, and my dad was his insurance agent. His niece married my close friend. Because of Dan, I got to go to an photo shoot and met the '92 Dream Team. Love you, Dan!!!
That was awesome. I really enjoyed watching Dan Fouts and the Air Coryell offense, and the sky is the limit for Justin Herbert. Two talented Chargers quarterbacks. I hope we get to see more of this type thing!
This is the kind of videos I truly enjoy. Love it when a legend of the past from the same franchise sits down with the new head of the franchise and talk about their games and share history. I wouldn't mind seeing this happen with Miami, Maybe Someday with New England and other franchises whom draft a great QB and have a legendary QB that's a HoF'er to chat with. Great Work NFL Films 😃
Young man we miss you just like a Barry Sanders super running back Lions need him back to win games you are great quarterback in the history you live long happy healthy life many many years to come our prayer for you and the rest of the world
The days of the "Air Coryell" offense was so ahead of its time if only the Chargers had the defense to match that offense I really believe the Chargers would have won a Super Bowl or two! Dan Fouts is right, Don Coryell's offense is still being used by teams today alot of Coryell's assistant coaches like Joe Gibbs and John Madden are already in the HOF because of winning the Super Bowl it's a shame not to include Don Coryell for his innovations on offense, because of Don you wouldn't have the wide passing attack that makes today's NFL exciting and Don Coryell should be in the HOF as a contributer.
The Eugene to San Diego (LA) connection! Chargers have become the team I cheer for in the AFC now that the Seahawks have moved to the NFC...I miss the old AFC west.
It’s so sick to see the generational stuff between these two. I’m not a chargers fan but it’s slowly becoming one of my favorites to watch (second to the Steelers 😂)
I'm not gonna lie, there's a mystique to "There was a guy named John Unitas who was our quarterback, and I was his backup" that there isn't when it comes to many other great passers in NFL history. If I was a backup to Brady or Manning or Marino, I'd feel like a giddy kid. If I was a backup to Unitas, I'd feel like I was in the presence of a god.
I loved Hadl, Humphries, Brees, and Rivers, but to me Fouts has been the greatest Charger QB. I think Herbert has the potential to surpass him. I've been a Chargers fan since 1969 and loved watching this video with clips of plays then and now.
My boys....Two tough as nails highly intelligent QB's One HOFer and a future HOFer..and the Oregon Duck pedigree is strong. Don Coryell created the original West Coast offense and completely changed NFL offenses After 40 years Chargers philosophy has not changed ATTACK and be brutally aggressive. All hail San Diego Chargers and Don Coryell...
I hope Herbert doesn't turn out to be Dan Fouts 2.0 in the best possible way. Fouts was a beast, an NFL and Oregon Hall of Famer, but he never saw the promised land. That said that really comes down to something neither man could control... defense. If the Chargers can't build a solid defense then Herbert can throw up and down the field all day and come up short. If they don't shore it up then Herbert's just gonna become the 21st century Dan Marino, an epic Hall of Famer pocket passer that torches defenses but comes away with nothing at the end of the day because his defense is made of wet tissue paper that can't stop lesser offenses from doing the same.
To exploit a 99 yard field you need an elite offensive line like Rashawn Slater @LT (AllPro), Matt Feiler @ LG, Cory Linsley @ Center (AllPro), Zion Johnson @ RG & Trey Pipkins @ RT!
@Garlic Maioli Be funny to see Alex Smith but 100% Agree with you saying Trent Green ... It's sad Len Dawson passed away recently otherwise he'd be the one Dawson & Mahomes
Then u don't know Justin Herbert. Their families are close and Fouts played with Justins grandfather. They play golf and hang together in Oregon in the off season
WOW such inner circle sensitive knowledge. Now Herbert should do a breakdown on his FOUR (1,2,3,4) ELITE fourth quarter pick sixes, all of which contributed to losses. Most recent of which happened 3 days ago. E-L-I-T-E!!
What an azz u are..And an ignorant azz at that. HerBert has thrown only one interception this season and only ONE pick 6 in his entire NFL career. And u trolling a Chargers page like some jealous 14 yr old schoolgirl...Lol
Chargers have always had great QBs those QBs just suck in the playoffs 🤷♂️ let’s not be around the bush or the good ole boy pat on the back. Chargers QBs have sucked in the playoffs no matter who is around them they can’t win the big one

I was AT that game & seen that move LIVE ! BIG cheer by the K.C Chiefs fans , by the way ! Real class move on there parts .
Lot’s of nfl guys are injured when they play. I’d say probably 99% of them
So fascinating how Fouts was discussing less about film and more the personal of those games, and what they meant for him… While Herbert was strictly technical and gave some analysis
With age comes perspective.
let's give Cooper Kupp a chair to sit w them
Good spot!

@@drone124he’s a wr. This isa qb episode
Go Ducks!! Love to see the Oregon legends talk shop with/for the Chargers! Not a LAC fan, but will always root for Herbert.
Fouts is, of course the greatest chargers quarterback ever. My hope is that Justin Herbert will bring home something Dan hasn’t able to get, a Super Bowl Championship

Unreal for his time...

Fouts is overrated. He was a great QB, no doubt, but he was a TURNOVER MACHINE.
@@paulyd2406 the chargers never made it to the Super Bowl with fouts, they made their only Super Bowl appearance with humphries

Two U of Oregon QBs that played for the Chargers. I've now got to find what other U of O qbs played for the Chargers
AJ Feeley
@@islandvibes9076 Dang good call. Love it!!!
At the start of the '05 season, Feeley was with the Dolphins and supposed to be the starting QB, but Saban went with Gus Frerotte instead. Then, halfway thru the season, they traded Feeley to SD for Cleo Lemon.

Justin Herbert taking us to Superbowl!! He’s got passed down the torched to do so!! He will bring us one boys and girls!!⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️🏆🏆🏆🏆
Chargers fan here in Upstate NY all because of Dan Fouts!!! Love these guys!!! Thanks for posting..Go Bolts 2022!!!!
Damn.... one of these days we will a super bowl... i'll cry my eyes out.

So true as Dan said, Coryell gave Fouts the ball and as a fan that was awesome. Looking forward to Moore doing the same thing for Justin.

Dan, Phillip, Stan, and Justin need a segment.
Bills fan but I love Herbert
I ask if some day the Chargers will get in the same place to Fouts, Rivers and Herbert...
Legends🐐🙌🏻
Fouts /Winslow changed the tight end position to the way it is today
This segment is WAY too short. Would love to see the extended version of this.
Two of the greatest to ever play the game and some of the most exciting QBs in history
Both chargers 🔌 ⚡️ Both former Oregon Ducks 🦆 what a great video.
It’s so sick to see the generational stuff between these two. I’m not a chargers fan but it’s slowly becoming one of my favorites to watch (second to the Steelers 😂)

ruclips.net/video/rf24LbTMwdE/видео.htmlsi=-8Qw_xTwnPRIjZF2 stumbled upon this great interview with , Dan. It’s a RUclips run by Fox camera guys. 👍🏼
As a kid, Dan Fouts was the Chargers. I always enjoyed his NFL commentary on CBS. Univ. of Oregon/Chargers QB legends together.
Dan Fouts was backup to the Golden Arm ? I had no idea
Yep. In his "old age" Johnny U was a Chargers QB and Fouts was being prepped to be the starter. He learned a lot
This is so cool . Two charger greats ..bolt up baby ⚡️⚡️⚡️
I loved Hadl, Humphries, Brees, and Rivers, but to me Fouts has been the greatest Charger QB. I think Herbert has the potential to surpass him. I've been a Chargers fan since 1969 and loved watching this video with clips of plays then and now.
Herbert is gong to be MVP this season
My boys....Two tough as nails highly intelligent QB's One HOFer and a future HOFer..and the Oregon Duck pedigree is strong. Don Coryell created the original West Coast offense and completely changed NFL offenses After 40 years Chargers philosophy has not changed ATTACK and be brutally aggressive.

Need to this with Phil and Justin
I’d like to see Herbert and Fouts also break down film of Stan Humphries and Philip Rivers
Wes Chandler was a monster
To exploit a 99 yard field you need an elite offensive line like Rashawn Slater @LT (AllPro), Matt Feiler @ LG, Cory Linsley @ Center (AllPro),
Zion Johnson @ RG & Trey Pipkins @ RT!
Honestly would have wanted to see philip rivers and herb because when rivers left they drafted him also they are very similar
When you sit with Fouts, you take notes
Pretty Cool 😎
definitely need to see patrick mahomes on one of these
@Garlic Maioli Be funny to see Alex Smith but 100% Agree with you saying Trent Green ... It's sad Len Dawson passed away recently otherwise he'd be the one Dawson & Mahomes
@Garlic Maioli I think it would be obvious, it would be Matt Cassel.
You’ve GOT to get Phil with Herbie on o elf these. It just has tonhappen
Very cool
Bolt Up!!!
They need to do this with Tua and Dan Marino
Come on NFL Throwback!!! It’s “…Break Down…”
NO Wide receiver in history can “Outrun these TWO Guys’ ARMS!! 2 Oregon QBs. 2 SuperStar Chargers players, 1 in the HOF. 1 on his way!
People ripping Philip Rivers ignore he won more playoff games for the Chargers than Fouts or Humphries
Fouts to Winslow changed the NFL
Fouts to Jefferson with a 1 handed catch for a touchdown!!
I love nfl throwback but anyone know why they changed the name on the Twitter page!?!?!
Dan was the shit.
we desperately need a speedy reciver for Justin deep ball treat
This just in
So, wait. This isn’t a series?
I think Dan Fouts was successful because he didn’t hold anything back.
Fouts played REAL football, not the watered down version we have today
Dan Fouts get no credit as one of the greatest of all time
Yerr...why can't u can't comment on the nfl channel video
Air Coryell offense, they gotta defend 99 yds, Joe THE BUM ASS Lombardi offense, they gotta just defend 6 yds... SMFH 🙄🤷♂️🤦♂️
DuckBolts
Watching this I get the feeling that Justin Herbert did not enjoy doing this
Then u don't know Justin Herbert. Their families are close and Fouts played with Justins grandfather. They play golf and hang together in Oregon in the off season
Well
This aged...
Poorly.
Next Eli manning
WOW such inner circle sensitive knowledge. Now Herbert should do a breakdown on his FOUR (1,2,3,4) ELITE fourth quarter pick sixes, all of which contributed to losses. Most recent of which happened 3 days ago. E-L-I-T-E!!
What an azz u are..And an ignorant azz at that. HerBert has thrown only one interception this season and only ONE pick 6 in his entire NFL career. And u trolling a Chargers page like some jealous 14 yr old schoolgirl...Lol
Is it me, or do these two seem to not like each other? At. All. It's like Herbert didn't want to even be there, and Fouts was put off by it.
Hardly...They are very good friends
Chargers Suck!!!! Their coaching staff is horrible.
I hope you are censored
Chargers have always had great QBs those QBs just suck in the playoffs 🤷♂️ let’s not be around the bush or the good ole boy pat on the back. Chargers QBs have sucked in the playoffs no matter who is around them they can’t win the big one
