He and Bob Trumpy were one of my favorite NFL announce teams... Don Criqui had a knack for having classic games fall into his lap. IMO the best sports announcer ever who never was designated on a network's "A" crew...
Anyone else notice how when good plays are made the players don't act all ridiculous they act like they have been there before no dumb celebrations....
Player salaries were lower, players had real jobs in the off season AND just had more class in general back then. Salaries are insanely high nowadays, so players are entitled and more into themselves and their “image”
Many Patriots off this team went to other teams & wound up getting super bowl rings.Don Hasselback & MIke Haynes got them with The Raiders.Russ Francis with the 49ers & Tony McGee with the Redskins.
It is so strange to see Darryl Stingley. Not knowing 9 months from now, or when this game was played, actually, he would be paralyzed in a pre season game against the Raiders. You almost feel like you wish you could find a way to warn him.
2:38:50 - Ove Johansson misses the final extra point of his brief NFL career, and Buoniconti immediately begins tearing into him! Still (I believe) the oldest player ever selected in the draft, and still owner of the record for the longest field goal at any level (69 yards), Johansson's NFL career line was atrocious: FGM/FGA: 1/4 XPM/XPA: 1/3
The GREAT Don Criqui on play by play
One of the absolute best EVER.

The CFL requires 20 seconds to get a play off...Maybe the NFL should give something like that a try.

Awesome! The uniforms, the grass Field, Don Criqui. Makes me feel great! Thank you!
Pats looked 10,000 times better in red than they do ever did in blue. The Original uniforms are better
1:03:30 Darryl Stingley touchdown
Make football great again
Do you have the September 29, 1985 Giants vs Eagles game available ?
Awesome satellite feed!!!!!
Sam Cunningham's little brother would later play QB for the Eagles.
Is this the game where Don Criqui says the East German women swimmers are the best bunch of fellas you'd ever meet?
Yes, at 2:36:50.
1:46:20 Papale hustling on punt coverage I believe
1:19:45 Vince Papale runs into the kicker
Lots of hot mic chatter...I kinda remember that as commonplace in the 70s. Did the announcers know they were live during the time between plays?!?
It was awesome listening don crique talk about how he can't believe we lost 4 games and how much team speed we had during commercial breaks
