@22:45-47, Washington RB#47 D.James was so quick with his great block, you could barely see it was James who made that block.

@39:34-36, tough luck for the Washington DB#32 Jim Wulff being taken down (if not taken out) by his own teammate, DT#79 Bob Toneff. From 1952-'58 (1953 not withstanding) Toneff played for San Francisco but the 49ers never played him at DT anywhere close to as much as they should have. It was rare during those 1950s seasons in San Francisco that Bob Toneff (used to wear #74) would line up at DT on the exact same plays that 49er legendary DT#73 Nomellini was also lined up at DT. Whenever Nomellini was out there on defense lined up at DT, Bob Toneff was either erroneously lined up at DE or was on the sidelines. Then, Tonef was in Washington by 1959 (switched jersey# to 79) and Washington got it right, playing him only at Defensive Tackle from 1959-'64, and not at Defensive End. Finally being correctly used as a DT fixture, Tonef went to three straight Pro Bowls from 1959-61, which can be looked upon as evidence that indeed #79 Bob Toneff always should have been at DT and nowhere else. 1950s 49ers not doing that is an untold reason why 1950s 49ers were often such a close-but-no-cigar team. Small note, @7:53-56 is that 49er legendary DT#73 Nomellini seen caving in the pass-pocket, but he was a little too slow to get his hands up to possibly deflect the pass or even simply obstruct the opposing QB's vision a little more, and the result was a long Chicago TD pass.

@19:16-22, Pittsburgh DB#46 Fred The Hammer Williamson didn't make the tackle but clearly did what he had to do to prevent the TD. @19:35, The Hammer strikes, fumble happens, and then so did the touchback.

So the day after I was born the Bears played to a tie. No additional sudden death playing time? Interesting.

[@ldfreitas9437]

Interesting to see that 49 rookie QB Bobby Waters was playing in the defensive secondary at the end of the Packer v 49er game.

Wow. I didn't even know they cut highlights together like this back in 1960.
