Jeff George threw lazers, dude could throw the ball 60 yds in a building with a 20ft ceiling

JG thought he should neve be taken out of a game. JJ was the HC and had to choose his best option to win. Doesn't make either one a bad guy.

I know I watched the Bears back then for The Defense and Walter.

I really appreciate the tackling from of players like Doug, Gary, and Pat Fisher. I played soccer in college as a freshman and went out for football junior year spring league. We wore full pads on day one. And I hadn't played th game since I was 11. It was tough to get used to how rough practices could get. I did too much helmet to helmet contact, I think. The coach told me to knock it off or I'd break my neck. I needed to learn form tackling, but the coach never taught me. They didn't care. I was third string. So I notice what Gary and Doug could do that was special -- the aerial-missile technique. ;)

June Jones......good QB coach and nothing else.

June Jones was a horrible coach with the falcons.

RIP

Bobby Hebert was no slouch, I'm not shocked that happened. Michigan Panthers, Oakland Invaders, New Orleans Saints. Legit

Amazing how television always loved showing the 2 of them yelling at each other, but never explained that they don't hate each other, its just one of those things. There was a Parcells / Simms yelling fit they used to show, they didn't make a big deal out of it

Buddy Ryan was a mean spirited, arrogant creep. He may have had some defensive concepts that worked well enough for a while, but he was disruptive wherever he went.

Jerry Rhome brought Steve Largent to Seattle...and the rest is history.

Bonafide legend, All 80’s decade team. Should be in the hall of fame, but after testifying against the NFL in front of congress, they prob don’t want it lol. He made them look dumb.

IMO...Francis, Casper & Winslow were the benchmarks for Gonzalez, Gronk & Travis Kelce...Big, Mobile blockers who could catch the pigskin & then, either run past you or bulldoze you. RIP, Russ R Francis...IMUA

Pettibone was pretty damn good himself !

To those of us who knew him these clips and videos are priceless. Thank you.

Great clip, too bad Doug wasn't part of the 1985 team

Yep. 🙏 RIP

This will get more views now

Ryan named the 46 defense in honor of Doug Plank. Sadly, Plank didn't get to play in the defense. He struck fear in other teams wide receivers.

My mother was a nurse at Hillsdale Hospital where Howard went to college. Howard worked at the hospital when he was in school and mom would have a story now and then about Howard. I always liked the 49er's due to the stories I heard from my mom even though I was a diehard Lions fan.

My teenage football idol

Bruce was great. He did have two more sacks than Reggie, but he also played three more seasons.

Yeah, Bruce has the sack record. Know what else he has? THE MOST TACKLES BY ANY OTHER DEFENSIVE LINEMAN.

I Really Liked His Game. He was Ahead of His Time. I'm a Big NFC Bears & AFC Raiders Fan.

Great interview! Proves what everyone suspects. Jeff George was a douche bag.

Good to hear Coach June Jones…I remember that incident with Jeff who was a hot head but man he threw the football like no other QB.

Washed up year 11th wr blah blah

It's kind of ridiculous, George was coming off an incredible season and before the season starts is told "if you struggle I'm going to bench you." That is just HORRIBLE management.

Is there any way to get a copy of the full interview? It's a great one!

I remember watching this man as a young.boy ...Animal with class matt

If I had to assume what the differences it would be the atmosphere, because the atmosphere is different on television, so I can imagine the difference between college and professional college seems more passionate

I shock Merlin’s hand

Henry Childs for the Saints was an incredible receiving tight end in the NFC.

Russ Francis, Dave Casper, Riley Odoms, Raymond Chester, Richard Caster, Jerome Barkum. The AFC had the best tightends in the 1970's.

Bruce was better

As an Illinois fan I can say I was a fan of Jeff George’s ability. He was just too much of a selfish prick which is why his career went the way it did. Course most young men with success and extreme popularity get a bit arrogant and cocky. If I was a generational talented qb and people worshipped the ground I walked on I couldn’t say I would be a whole lot different

Paul was& still my favorite SC QB hand's down 78-79 I was so honored to have seen him play @ coliseum 11-12 year's old! Fight on ✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️

Dope

Fight on Brad Leggit and to Todd Marinovich..Todd I played my first HS game against ya..capo vs foothill your senior year...you ate us up. Always rooted for ya at SC ( my dad went there..in early 6os and highschool friends and a teamte with your uncle and mother..at Huntington Park) I later played music so knew you had a band ...anyways we had similar problems in life...so just hope you're well and happy. Been to some of the same places..the farm ..lacy..etc. Always heard you were solid. That's good. Anyways ... I do enjoy the art I have seen from you. So I guess as a fan of you as a player and artist and Trojan ( I didn't attend there..just Trojan family..I went to Fullerton jc..hung up cleats after injury and did music..) Anyways respect and my best wishes to you and big Brad Leggit..fight on

Every high school and college coach should have the players listen to this.

46 Bear D

The Chargers need to retire his number for good.

Chuck Noll,Bum Phillips.

Doug Plank is still to this day one of the most underrated hardest hitting Safety's in NFL HISTORY PERIOD. I think Doug Plank is the reason Buddy Ryan called his defense The 46, because that was Plank's jersey number and that defense was to represent the way Plank played the game.. HIT HARD ON EVERY DOWN THAT YOU'RE OUT THERE..

The sound in this video is AWFUL. Fades in and out, you cannot even hear half of it.

He is my coach at my school

His career would have been better if he were a jet cause he stayed in California his whole life and it fucked him up

Paul was a great QB for SC back in the day. As he said...he had a lot of good days. I wonder if Oct 13th 1979 is one of the bad days. As a huge SC fan I never forgotten the heartbreak after they let an inferior Stanford team come back and tie them up 21-21...after leading 21-0 at half. That one lackluster half of football kept (in my opinion) the most talent laden team in college football history from winning the National Championship that year. 42 years later and it is still annoying. :)

Great tribute from Plank on Walter

I hung out with Todd a few times when I lived in Newport Beach. He loves talking smack. The first thing he said to me when I said I was a Bills fan was “you know my first win was against the Bills”.
