RIP Norm Snead!❤

[@CAG00]

Thank you so much for sharing these highlights, I am Thrilled with all of them. They are Incredible

[@donaldmoore6333]

I have been waiting for the 67 season highlights for years.Big props. The Hawk was my favorite player. Norm Snead had a breakout season I had his football card.

[@master-pdot]

Check out the highlight videos that i did of those 2 Legends, u will love it.

[@6400az]

Beautiful protection with the extra lowered center bar, have one of those. 1:30

[@jonirving5606]

Norm Snead and Ben Hawkins were both underrated players.

[@tombryant52jumpscoach]

Norm was overrated between the 20-yard lines. A left-handed compliment from the Phila. press, "The best quarterback in the league between the 20s". LOL

[@kman215]

Never knew ditka played for the Eagles

[@michaelleroy9281]

Yes he did 1967 and 1968 he said it was his worst 2 years in football

[@mikevanriel7573]

I wish the Eagles would go back to these jerseys at least the white ones.

[@tombryant52jumpscoach]

Agree!

[@davidabney7700]

Norm Snead was one of the best pure passers in NFL history.

[@johnhorn3344]

That may be a bit of a stretch. I remember I was pretty excited when my Vikings traded for him in 1971 thinking that he would be a big upgrade from Gary Cuozzo. It didn’t work out at all. Snead blew his starting opportunity and wound up third string behind Cuozzo and Bob Lee. Then the next year he led the NFL in passing with the Giants. Go figure. He had a very up and down, mostly down, career. 1967 and 72 were his two best seasons.

[@rockyhines5842]

These cartoon wings helmets of today do not compare with the classic, sharp lines of the Eagles 1960s helmets.

[@stevolkman]

Those late ‘60s unis with the double Northwestern stripes and the Kelly green. Damn.

[@michaelleroy9281]

​@stevolkman From 1965-69 they had the UCLA stripes on the jerseys

[@balrog322]

Even in the day I liked Ben Hawkins, the best wide receiver in NFL history who never fastened a chin strap. And check out Mike Ditka wearing No. 98. Not many know this, but Ditka & Gale Sayers lit up the 49ers for seven touchdowns just two years before the ‘67 season.

[@michaelleroy9281]

He later switched to his usual #89

[@rwyatt26]

Damn injuries was hitting us then like they were doing the last three seasons!!!!!

[@tombryant52jumpscoach]

I thought Tom Woodeshick was an ol' farm boy until I saw him smoking a joint in "M*a*s*h".

[@johnjp5883]

The Eagles had a band?

[@martinober249]

Interesting that the Eagles wore their white uniforms at home against the Saints

[@michaelleroy9281]

Maybe they did that because that game was Thanksgiving weekend

[@edpinkerton7947]

Ditka according to his book was pretty much washed up by this time. Going through a divorce, drinking & injured all the time. Landry rescued him & he finished up strong with the cowboys

[@ECWnWWF]

So the Ealges finished the season with 6 wins and 7 losses in "67". (oh and they had 1 tie).

[@deepcosmiclove]

They had a good season and had some good players. Couldn't stop anybody.

[@michaelleroy9281]

​@@deepcosmicloveBeat Dallas 21-14 in one game

[@deepcosmiclove]

@@michaelleroy9281 I think I remember that game. Eagles had 3 return TDs and on the final Dallas drive "Scarpati stole the ball!"

[@maxpuppy96]

How do you lose Bob Brown?

[@michaelleroy9281]

Trade him to the Rams

[@MattAttack54]

To think Dikita was on this team

[@razzledazzle8631]

Why didnt Ben Hawkins button his chin strap .. back then they knocked your head off ..lol that is crazy

[@edpinkerton7947]

Seems like a lot of players back then didn’t wear them. Kilmer/ Douglas come to mind. Hell McDonald didn’t wear a face mask until the mid 60s
