Last night, had a chance to watch an hour-long NFL Films' "NFL's Greatest Games," featuring the 1974 AFC Divisional Playoff game between the Dolphins and the Raiders -- the "Sea of Hands" game.

Apparently, footage of the game had been lost for some time until it was rediscovered relatively recently in storage.

Miami: 26
Oakland: 28

One of the wildest finishes in the history of the NFL, with each team scoring touchdowns and taking the lead with less than 4 mins left in the 4th.

So many HOF players on both sides of the ball, along with 2 HOF coaches. It was awesome just seeing all the names on the backs of the jerseys.

I love NFL Films productions, but this is OutFUCKINGstanding, even for their high standards.

If you haven't seen it yet, highly recommended. I hope ESPN shows it again sometime soon.

WAR NFL playoffs.

RACK this thread!


Dont really know that they lost the entire film, especially since one of my uncles has had the spanish version that he taped a few years ago. (El pañuelo amarillo, Raiders-bwah) Great great game. That Clarence Davis catch was incredible...hell, the whole play was from beginning to end.

Madden vs. Shula.

Epic as fuck.


And yes, seeing all of those HOF players just makes me shake my head all the more at the horeshit currently polluting my team.

The "voice of god," isn't in it, only radio play-by-play. Good stuff.
