MNF 1987 -Raiders vs. Seahawks (Pt 1)

[@scotters201]

Back then "Monday night football was an event"..the build up..presentation..the game itself..all was a notch above todays standards.

[@marcamerine7941]

Absolutely even the Announcers were Great..Frank & Al were Awesome Dan Deardorff was good. But nothing was Better then Frank Howard & Dandy Don. Our parents were lucky look who they got to listen to & look at Junk we have to listen 2DAY

[@Muskegon333]

What a backfield for the Raiders. Bo Jackson and Marcus Allen. Love these old NFL games.

[@breezecardenas3941]

This was the first Monday Night Football game, I ever watched. Watching Bo Jackson run the length of the field and through the tunnel, and watching his teammates run in after him. I also remember watching Marcus Allen make, what I thought was the best catch, I had ever seen, in this game.

[@jaspermitchell3377]

Man, what a trio of broadcasters these guys were.! I miss these games!

[@joemorrow8411]

[@kevenkokos1388]

Amen. MNF at its height..

[@tommyhamilton8818]

You're not including Dennis Miller on MNF? LMAO

[@califinn]

1:26:32, Bo in a nutshell, pointing back at Marcus Allen, who laid down a great lead block to get the easy 1-on-1 with Bosworth in the 5 hole...with a full head of steam, Bos did alright, but the play was over when Allen picked up his block. Selfless player, God-gifted like no other. This was a great night for the Raiders.

[@babrams007]

This is a walk down memory lane. I was in high school and I remember watching this game at my parents house. This bring back great memories!!! Thanks for sharing the game!!!

[@jasonpdsi]

I love watching legendary moments in the context of the entire game

[@derricklogan2058]

Brian met Bo at the 2 yard line, but Bo had the momentum and carried Bosworth into the end zone on a beautiful play by both players! That's football 🏈. I remember watching this game.

[@The1972watcher]

I remember watching this game as a sophomore in high school. After this game, they called bozworth the ‘11 million dollar bust!’ Memories!

[@maninthemiddle55]

Great video, thanks for uploading. I was at this game down in the second row. I was a huge Raiders fan then, and hated the Seahawks with a passion. While the Raiders were warming up before the game their safety, Stacey Toran #30, was within earshot. I called out to him, got his attention, and told him to "stick somebody" in the game. Dude delivered. Check out the way he hits the Seahawks' receiver Paul Skansi at 1:11:40 into this video. That hit would be illegal today, and for good reason. To his credit, Skansi somehow hung onto the football. Toran later died way too young in a car accident. RIP Stacey.

[@mjzenitram3064]

Bo's TDs are at 35:20, 42:20, and 1:25:10. Great post. Happy 55th Bo!

Thank you for Bran for posting another classic game. I have a shorter version of this game, so this is great to see. Thanks man!

[@jeremythompson9122]

James Lofton was a great wide receiver. He was still one of the top deep threats in the league even when he was in his mid 30's. I believe he went to the Pro Bowl twice very late in his career while playing for Buffalo. I know he went at least once as a member of the Bills

[@aldojohnson1753]

Classy man.

This Raider team was my favorite. Was a great time to be a fan.

Just go to 42:20, that's all that's needed on this night... As a Seahawks fan I'll never forget that run, this immortalized Bo in Tecmo Super Bowl ... lol

[@mmraider8124]

Every time I see one of these videos it makes me wonder what I was doing right at that moment and I'm pretty sure I was watching it with my stepdad who raised me to be a Raider fan. It was either that or I was playing Nintendo or with my GI Joes. I was 7yrs old in 1987.

"It's almost unfair..." Truer words were never spoken.

[@steven2212]

Fantastic rivalry from their inception. The Seahawks always played the Raiders tough. Boz? A clown, not even a blip in NFL history. Bo? Legend.

[@jeremythompson9122]

How are Jim Plunkett, Cliff Branch, and Tom Flores all not in the Hall of Fame? Makes no sense whatsoever

[@jln55]

Plunkett has much better creds than Namath. He overcame a ton of adversity. His 'problem' was a lack of charisma. Evidently that holds a lot of weight with HOF voters.

[@paletangitau1247]

Don't forget Lester Hayes

[@kevinburke6055]

Plunkett shouldn’t be in the Hall. Yes he won 2 SBs yes but his stats r horrendous. Need to do a little more if u win 2 SBs. Plunkett constantly kept losing his starting job. Eli Manning won 2 SBs and he’s top 10 in passing yards and TD passes. Just Because you win 2 Super Bowls doesn’t mean you’re automatically going to get in you have to do other stuff around that

[@fideltorres6380]

Include Lester Hayes and Rod Martin... my favorite two all time defensive players

[@michaelleroy9281]

Tom Flores is now in the Hall of Fame

[@DucNguyen0131]

Most ABC stations carried the game in full, some stations cut off the games at 11:00pm for news, some stations ran at a delayed time.

[@Mq6vL9Bu]

Kenny Easley looked really slow on that long TD run. For the record, Kenny Easley is a hall of famer.

[@kyledamron]

someone needs to tell Seattle to use these uniforms again

[@kylemortensen8618]

I AGREE THERE!!

[@ldhorricks]

[@mattlong9178]

kyle damron b

[@kylebailey2992]

I agree

[@aaronwarren9558]

Mark Wilson was on of the worst QBs ever, right there with Marinovich and Russell for the Raiders. Bad QB choices and not handling Marcus Allen situation at the end of his time really made a mess of Mr. Al Davis

[@jeremythompson9122]

Only reason the Raiders stuck with Wilson so long is because Al's ego was too big to admit he was a bust

[@nbk4dv9]

I used to hate Marc Wilson but have way more respect now that im watching old seasons in order. Dude had his shoulder and thumb tore up every year. To the Raiders credit they DID start Rusty Hilger but weren't patient with him and eventually let all three 1987 qbs go and brought in Jay Schroeder. 1987 was an odd year. This game in itself was the perfect metaphor for the whole season. A team that lost 6 straight at the kingdome and 7 game season losing streak against a Team that controlled it's own destiny to get home field. Al Davis handed Mike Shanahan a Pro Bowl roster the next season so when you consider the strike and the team he assembled in 88 it's hard to blame Al Davis

[@rosalindasaavedra2142]

\_!"

[@LaCatHTF]

Marc Wilson had 300 yards passing at halftime with only lofton.... and Carr talking about he didn’t have no weapons 🤣

[@d2axe7]

Beuerlein could’ve been great with us in the long term I believe.

[@mgb4692]

Was interesting here: Hawks came off of pounding the AFC West-leading Chargers and were just a game back (also held the head to head since they only played once due to the strike), also beat the eventual AFC champion Broncos on SNF two weeks later but this began a 2-3 sputter into the playoffs and a horrible loss to the Oilers (thanks to a blown replay) in what was to be Kenny Easley's final game.

[@funguy246]

MGB I remember replay clearly showed Fred Young had his hands underneath the ball for the pick. That one hurt

[@aaazzz090]

I miss the Seahawks not being in the AFC ,those division games against the Raiders and Broncos were great ...

[@kylebailey2992]

I Very much recalled that Game that Very Night. As it showed BO Jackson was an Unbelievable Beast as a Running Back. IT was a Shame when He Later got the Hip injury that eventually Ended His Career. Otherwise He'd of Set Record's that No One else Could of Ever Beaten. BO was just so unbelievably Great, as an Athlete. That it was Like he was a God compared to the Other's that He Played against. Even though it was in Two Different Major Sport's, that He was playing in. My God was He Fantastic 🤩😊🤩😊.

[@jcrhea001]

I'll always be upset that Bo Jackson suffered a football ending injury at 28. Damn.

[@staceywilliams6377]

I agree. One of the truly tragic "what ifs?" in professional sports.

[@MikeBarbre]

Just painful. And I'm not even talking about Bo. It was PAINFUL growing up watching the walking sieves that were Patrick Hunter, Dwayne Harper, and Terry Taylor at CB for the Hawks. I swear to God, if we had a guy like we do today like Richard Sherman, a lot of those bombs to Lofton in the first quarter and others like them wouldn't have happened with this Seattle team. This was a very strong era for the Seahawks, but they were always missing something. (and it was probably quality cornerback play!)

[@seekanddestroy7343]

Mike Barbre I feel your pain. Trust me.

[@billytheconqueror5803]

we lost Dave Brown who was our interception leader

[@maniacmasturbator2411]

[@runawayuniverse]

People always talk about Bo running over Boz, but I always liked seeing Bo absolutely destroy him while running up the sideline. I mean, what the hell was Boz even thinking trying to catch Bo from behind. Dude had no shot. But I guess it's the effort that counts lol

[@maniacmasturbator2411]

runawayuniverse a for effort lol People always talk about Bo running over Boz and it’s very overhyped. The previous week, Bo completely ran over Mike Harden for his first career TD. That was the run that the Bo-Boz one is made out to be. Bo trucked Harden!

How refreshing to see after a 1st down nobody gets up hot dogging...man the good ol days..

[@staceywilliams6377]

The league has changed so much because there's more money to make off of entertainment than machismo. The league supports showmanship now because that is what people pay to see.

[@mrrutty]

Allen, Jackson and... Lofton? Didn’t realize Lofton was a Raider. Always think of him as the Bills WR in Super Tecmo

[@eddieG667]

Fun fact on that 91 yard run: They ran that play twice in a row. The first time with Marcus Allen with Bo lead blocking to the left side. Then the next time, same double TE formation with Bo.

[@ckobo84]

Never got to see Bo block though. If Marcus was a speed burner he'd probably tried taking that to the outside behind Bo.

[@kyledamron]

from 63-85 the raiders rarely had a losing season to me that is longevity closest I've seen since are today's patriots (who never had a coaching change during their dynasty period) and 80s/90s SF 49ers.

[@denniscassa6869]

In many ways, the run at 1:22:20 is even more impressive than the 91 yard TD. He had to spin and accelerate, then run a greater distance than the Seattle DBs to get to the outside, and easily blew by them. Patrick Hunter (#20) was 45 pounds lighter than Bo too.

Have to cherish anytime Bo can make a catch, let alone in the endzone. For all his speed and power, the man had brick hands.

[@ckobo84]

I'm pretty sure you're making that up, baseball players have to have good eye / hand coordination. They already had Marcus Allen who was an exceptional receiver so there wasn't much need to use Bo in the receiving game. He probably wasn't much of a pattern runner either, but I have no recollection of him dropping passes.
