@Harry Engel unfortunately for Blanda he isn't really remembered for being a QB even though he advertised himself as simply "a quarterback who could also kick"
When you put it into perspective, the 2020 nfl season isn't that weird. Its just stadiums with no people. Compare it to 1982, 9 games, 16 playoff teams, and a kicker winning league mvp.
Not league wide but Katrina in 2005... Saints home opener in New York and only 4 home games are played in Louisiana (none in New Orleans). Throw in persistent rumors that they would stay in San Antonio, and it was a sickening year of football. Going 3-13 didn't help.
Or what happens to Drew Bledsoe career. I mean they signed him to a 10 year contract that off-season. They would've wanted him to be there for a while.
Marino's record setting year in 1984 has become the norm in the no-defense 2000s. No runner will ever break Dickenson's record though, they'll never get enough carries.
Hey, I saw you on First Take with Stephen right before Kickoff started on TV, I think. i couldn't higher up the TV's volume because my mom was sleeping. BTW I believe you're very cool and awesome. Also TBH watching the Throwback with Peter is very fun. I mean I can watch it on DVR too. But what I'm asking is Throwback cancelled because I don't want it to go away. It's still fun even if I eat dinner that my mom makes.
Could you imagine what Reggie White's contract would look like if he was playing now? He would probably be making 17 million after two games. I don't know how I never realized new single season passing yards, pass TDs, receiving TDs, rush yards, and sack records all were set in the same season. We might not see something like that happen in the same season ever again.
I think you should just do a full on documentary now. Starting at the beginning and detailing every change and thing of note from every day/week/month/year/season in the nfl history.
In the 2020 season, we've seen (As of week 12): - *insert the endless effects of coronavirus here* - The Broncos play the Saints without a quarterback - Tom Brady leaving the Patriots - The Browns being a good team - The Buccaneers being a good team - The Bills being a good team - The Dolphins being a good team - The Patriots being an average team - An injury at FedEx Field that wasn't a player for Washington - An entire division with every team holding a losing record - A team that will likely go 0-16 (I'm calling it along with everyone else) - An expanded 14-team playoffs - The Raiders officially move to Vegas It's been rather eventful.
In the 1970 merger, two teams were exempted from having to worry about moving-the Giants and 49ers. Reason? Geographic AFL neighbors in the Jets and Raiders, respectively.
My Dad worked with Sam Mills doing construction before I was born way back in the 1980’s. Sam wasn’t being paid enough by the USFL to fully support himself so he had to work a second job during the off-season. Then he finally got a shot with the Saints and went on to make 5 pro bowls and be named first team all-pro in 1996 at age 37. The Saints also snagged Michael Lewis off of a truck driving job to become an all-pro. Insane. Both guys were right under the Eagles noses. Lewis was signed by the Eagles but didn’t make the team and Mills played for the Philadelphia Stars in the USFL. Stupid Eagles.
Great historical video of the NFL For a lonely American Football 🏈 fan over here in Northern Ireland. Ps, GO 49ERS!!!!!! PPS Only one complaint, no mention of the great Joe Montana?
When they were talking about the 1987 NFL Strike, they said that the players called the strike off with a new CBA. That wasn’t true. The players returned to work without a new agreement.
I'm VERY surprised you didn't mention 1992, because not only was that the year Favre started for the Packers, but 20 out of 28 NFL teams that season couldn't finish a full season with their starting QB. 7 of those 8 made the playoffs, the only QB to miss and play a full season? Jim Everett. That number wouldn't be seen again until 2017, where 12 of 32 teams finished a full season with their starting QB, and it was nearly matched this season with 13 out of 32 teams. One of the worst years I have ever seen for QB's.
Honorable mention: I would say the 2022-2023 season was unusual because of the cancelled bills bengals Monday night game, Pray and Hope for Damar🙏🏼#3🔷🔴
Wrong title. Not "Unique seasons", it's not about the seasons, it's a history of innovations and novelties in the NFL, there are quite a few of those already.
The commentary from those games in 30-60s is so funny sometimes
YES SIR
LOOK OUT FELLAS
galloping gale!
@@themangoman7418 😂😂
I would also say the 2003 season was also unique because it’s currently the only NFL season in which every team won at least 4 games.
Wow. Good memory & good call
@@christopherengel7436 And I believe that's gonna be the same after this season, because I know that the Lions have not won a game this season.

This is the content we need in this day and age.
Facts.
I've just been getting into football during the 2020 season, so videos like this are a good way to learn more about the game.
You from US?
Respect for the honesty. Tbh keep watching these videos on here that's a good idea.
When you put it into perspective, the 2020 nfl season isn't that weird. Its just stadiums with no people. Compare it to 1982, 9 games, 16 playoff teams, and a kicker winning league mvp.
And it was utterly pointless not letting people into the stadiums
2050 NFL season is going to be played on Mars
Nah, probably in our graves
No we will have a city by 2050 foot ball will be played on Mars in 1000 years
Yeah, you would be able to jump 12 feet up in the air just to catch a football.

Then Drew Brees and Sean Payton arrived, the team returned home, Steve Gleason blocked a punt, and the rest is history.
At 8:17 they cut off the announcer yelling “touchdown redskins” and skipped to the cheer
Probably cause they're not the *name redacted* anymore. Lol
Now they're the Football team. 😂
So cringe. Like they're erasing history like China with tienimen sqaure
Kind of odd that Joe Gibbs won 2 of his championships in strike seasons
Washington is fraudulent
Does that make him a strikebuster or a scabmaster?
I think thats a testamemt to how well he can conduct business amid Kayos !
Mickey Mouse before Mickey Mouse
Hey nfl thanks for keeping me entertained while I recover from Covid
The history in this video alone is the reason why I am a true football fan. Best video I’ve seen in a very long time. Thank you so much!

So in super strange years, with possible cancellations, Washington wins? Imagine it happens again lol

Oh how the times have change. Could you imagine a billionaire owner serving in the military today? Shows how great the country use to be.
The irony; I wonder if he profited off of war like his contemporaries or was he deemed too poor?

This was a very needed vid. Real classy.
It’s certainly won’t be the same this season w/o the roaring of the fans

@@justinpettit3432 it would make everything uneven unless they add 7 other teams with them
Now they're the Detroit Lions
Biggest what if’s ever are what if Drew Bledsoe & Trent Green don’t get hurt , what happens to Brady & Kurt Warner’s careers ?
They most likely don’t happen. Bledsoe and Green would’ve retired eventually but they still had years before they got injured
Yep
Or what happens to Drew Bledsoe career. I mean they signed him to a 10 year contract that off-season. They would've wanted him to be there for a while.
@@justinpettit3432 Which also means Tony Romo's career might never have happened either.
I feel like Kyle Brandt is the NFL’s League Historian
Don’t forget Orlando Pace on that legendary Rams team! His superb blocking partially helped Kurt Warner win MVP that year!

Monday Night Football on ABC will never be forgotten 1970-2006
It may return with the new TV deal they're working out
I hope it comes back! MNF on ABC was the best!
hopefully the rock and the queen can come back for week 2 this year
7:47 So I guess desperate times call for desperate measures. Seeing this in other leagues during the 2020 pandemic with the bubble playoffs.
1:03 “yes sir”

You should add an addendum to this video for 2020 Steelers vs Ravens Thanksgiving debacle.
“A Bronko Nagurski jump pass to Red Grange” is the most 1932 sentence I’ve ever heard
They didn't mention the referees going on strike in 2012. That was strange. (Packer fan btw. Fail Mary was awful.)
Great history lesson. Thanks Kyle and NFL.
I love this vid. I like it because I get to learn all about my favorite games history
notice how they never said “Redskins” lmao
BECAUSE YOU CAN'T SAY THAT ANYMORE! 😂
@@disneyfan8719 u can. snowflakes might just get offended 🤷🏼♂️
Why are you so mad that you can't say a racist team name?
In the 2020 season, we've seen (As of week 12):
- *insert the endless effects of coronavirus here*
- The Broncos play the Saints without a quarterback
- Tom Brady leaving the Patriots
- The Browns being a good team
- The Buccaneers being a good team
- The Bills being a good team
- The Dolphins being a good team
- The Patriots being an average team
- An injury at FedEx Field that wasn't a player for Washington
- An entire division with every team holding a losing record
- A team that will likely go 0-16 (I'm calling it along with everyone else)
- An expanded 14-team playoffs
- The Raiders officially move to Vegas
It's been rather eventful.
An entire division of losers has happened before in the nfl
I think the Panthers and Seahawks both made it to the playoffs with a losing record
I thought there was going to be a joke in it that went like "in 1988, the falcons were up by 22, and DIDN'T lose!"
I live about 30 min SE of Portsmouth. They still have the stadium there, as well as a mural that documents the Spartans history in the city.

00:58 Everyone focused on the announcer saying "yes sir"... Me wondering why no one is talking about that absolute cannon of an arm.
In 2120 we’ll be playing football on Uranus
2020 was like 6 previous seasons. Tom Brady led his team to Super Bowl victory and was MVP of the game.
When they were talking about the 1987 NFL Strike, they said that the players called the strike off with a new CBA. That wasn’t true. The players returned to work without a new agreement.
“They sent the cowboys packing in the divisional round”. Somethings never change. 🤷🏽♂️
surprised by no mention of the replacement refs

So Dan Marino changed the game.
It's hard to picture the Cleveland Browns being as dominant as the Patriots were
Terry probably did that after they changed the corner rule because at practice thats what he dealt with.
So in the 1940’s football players carried 1903 Springfield’s? Just curious of the history of this. Had to ask because of 2 clips of them with them.
Those Redskin Teams were badass.

well done. thank you
The 1932 catch was 4 yards behind

I' d love to see the kicker as MVP this year
13:28 "They ( the 49'ers) worked the cap...."

18:12 you forgot NBC?
1932 : couldn't legally throw a pass unless 5 yards behind line of scrimmage . So football favored the defense back then
Wow great vids
Could have at least added the year the first African American was allowed to play in the NFL.
Would that be to say its unusual and unique for black people to play in the nfl

Not gonna lie, Dan Marino should of left dolphins and went to another team. He definitely had potential to go on and win a super bowl.
