Cunningham vs Marino is a Forgotten Legend Matchup! (Eagles vs. Dolphins, 1990 Week 14)

[@sports3117]

We’re watching Randall Cunningham and Dan Marino go at it in this underrated classic, and we got Jalen Hurts and Tua Tagovailoa going at it this Sunday Night

[@alphonseblackwood2930]

Omg, football is still happening but it's different because time yay

[@chriszeien9112]

Only difference is Tua and Jalen have a long long way to go to match Marino and Cunningham. Especially Marino.

[@DavidRamirez9054]

@@chriszeien9112 Long way to match? Had no idea Marino or Cunningham had Super Bowl rings

[@chriszeien9112]

As opposed to the rings jalen and tua have.

[@GLA45Amg716]

Jalen hurts is boring as hell to watch man. All that running they do. They paid him 250 mill to run the ball 40 times a game and when they need him to pass he’s MID .. 22 tds passing last year 🤦🏾‍♂️

[@petenojd]

Big Dolphins/Marino fan here but a BIG shout out to Fran Tarkenton, who held both the passing and rushing records for QB's until Marino and Cunningham came along. What an underrated QB. But then you could say that about all 3 of these guys. Thanks for this upload!

[@jonmolina948]

Mahomes is lot like Tarkenton. Running around all over the place.

[@Dankilicious123]

Jeez as somebody who's born in the 90s and didn't grow up watching Marino I've heard all about him but you really get some perspective on how insanely precise he was watching this.

[@joebach087]

He didn't win a super bowl so he doesn't get nearly enough credit that he should. Too many pundits, trolls, and newbie fans talking shit all day

[@dwm25]

I watched pretty much his whole career. Still my favourite passing QB to this day. That release was lightning fast, so accurate and some incredible come from behind wins. A travesty he never won a SB.

[@TheRealDarthVadar]

Yup & he never had a great receiver like other legends have had.

[@qdigggs]

@@dwm25as a bills fan i concur

And this is not prime Marino. Marino in his prime was 83 to 86..in my opinion

[@quietearthMT78]

That flea-flicker from the Eagles was a thing of beauty!

[@JMcN76]

Marino had a cannon of an arm. Probably the best pure passer in the game.

[@LiamDeege]

He certainly had the talent like no one else had.

[@hamhockbeans]

Randall as well

[@6971robi]

You mean Marino and Dan Fouts were probably the best pure passers in the game. Right a long with Joe Montana.

[@arronfrazier7873]

Its that quick release that killed teams! Yes, he had a strong arm but it was intellect to know to go with ball at 6'5 to go with that quick ass release. That is what made Dan deadly

[@GuitarGangsterArmi]

He was a loser that never amounted to anything

[@demariwillis3308]

Cunningham and Marino was ahead of there time.

[@JelaniWood]

This whole highlight just reminds of how physical it all used to be! So many modern day flags would have been thrown in this game with the leading helmets diving hits. I almost forgot this is what the football I grew up loving even looked like. Thanks for the upload.

[@bdog1323]

That 4th and 10 completion to Duper was just perfect by Marino & Duper staying in bounds with the catch, underrated play that helped them keep that going. I remember like yesterday that this victory clinched a playoff spot for Miami for the first time since '85.

[@LeeHunt-mu9nb]

I have this tape on VHS tape ! That catch that Keith Byers snatched out of Tim Mckyers hands was heart breaking! I thought for SURE Philly was going to win In the pregame, they were contrasting the styles of Marino with Cunningham, and for Randall they showed his highlights to Jazz music and for Marino they played classical music.

[@YvngÇhose]

That marino release is insane

[@hamhockbeans]

Randall just flicks a bomb pass like it nothing.

[@CSpad]

​​@@hamhockbeansRandall winds up when he throws, Marino was a flick of the wrist. I'm a die hard fins fan who hasn't missed a game since 86' & I'm originally from Philly. Just ask cats like Manning who they looked up to. Marino was shattering records in an era when you could still grab recievers off the line & downfield. And Marino didn't have Wr's like Harrison & Reggie Waynem. Duper was a speedster & Clayton was a solid reciever & great route runner but neither will sniff the HOF. After them he his best wr was probably Irving Fryer at the down side of his career. Marino also never had a Marshal Faulk or Edgerin James in the backfeild. He carried an average team to the playoffs and/or winning record almost ever yr in the league

[@john_wesley_walsh]

Zero wasted motion. Marino had the perfect release.

[@CSpad]

@hamhockbeans like nothing? Really. He's gotta bigger wind up then any MLB pitcher

[@24hockeydad82]

[@cbrocks36]

I’d imagine we’ll get that in late November, when the Eagles play the Bills later this season.

Dude Cunningham avoiding Bruce smith and launching the ball for the touchdown is one of my all time favorite plays, that play was I think 98 or 99 yards

[@Kennedysports90s]

This was one of the greatest games I've ever seen. The Eagles D Vs. Miami Offence was epic. Richmond Webb and Keith Sims were rookies blocking against some of the best pass rushers in the league. Duper vs Eric Allen. Miami was missing Mark Clayton and Tony Paige, but Buddy never learned from his previous two matchups (85 Bears, 87 Eagles) that you don't win by blitzing Marino. Dan is the greatest 4th down downfield passer I've ever seen. Everyone knew that 4th down in the 1st quarter was going to be a pass.

[@demariwillis3308]

The good old days miss the 90s

[@cnelsonlv99]

This was one of my favorite games of all time. My two favorite teams, and two of my all-time favorite players, at the height of their careers. Both teams were really good that year... this is a great throwback game!

[@christophercanter3425]

Remember this classic like yesterday. Marinos whole career was a highline reel

[@larryinNH]

Still incredible to me that the Eagles from the late 80’s into the early 90’s never at least got to a Super Bowl. More incredible that Marino never got back to a Super Bowl.

[@LiamDeege]

Had several teams to do it, just couldn't get the job done. I hope Philly or San Francisco makes it this year from the NFC.

[@Enigmalake]

1:25 for one reason 😆

[@LiamDeege]

@@Enigmalake If they ran the ball, they win I guarantee it, but then Nick Siriani's brain turns off and decides to play too much risk and reward and pulled the Seattle Seahawks sin of football. I don't get that moment to be honest, It's like the Patriots and Raiders from last year in a way.

[@bebolino100]

​@@LiamDeegeKyle Shanahan did it in SB 51, 54 and 2021 nfc championship and went wrong. Throwing the ball instead of running the ball and kill the clock when you have a good score advantage is bad

[@LiamDeege]

@@bebolino100 No kidding! Like why would you throw the ball on 3rd and 10 right on the 2 minute warning!? The Jets had no timeouts left too so in any case the Eagles likely would've won that game had they ran the ball because they would've punted with just over 1 minute left.

Star studded line up from the Late 80s Man thank u NFL Throwback for posting this !!!!

[@Tdull-tv1ds]

Marino on 4th and short more often than not goes deep and I like that. It showed how much confidence he had in his arm and in his receivers to make the catch. The sad thing about Marino is that his teams came up short in winning Super Bowls. If he was on championship rosters we would be talking about him as one of the greatest QBs in NFL history. Instead he loses in arguments when compared to Joe Montana, Tom Brady, and Peyton Manning and probably soon Patrick Mahomes.

lmfao marino aint in no league of P goat lmfao Pgoat is the only goat u see them matrix side flying throws LMFAO marino can never do that or run around HAHH u wish he was black!

[@Ballaholic17]

[@gerald-hl7kt]

Danny was definitely Jesus in a football uniform when it came to throwing the football unfortunately he didn't have the 11 disciples on defense that he needed to make stops when stops needed to be made

[@liamvalencia2415]

What a QB duel man!!!!!

[@johncalvo1743]

Marino played for 17 seasons. In all that time, he only had ONE running back that rushed for over 1000 yards in a season: Abdul-Jabbar in 1996, who BARELY broke 1000 yards. He averaged less than 3.5 yards a carry!

[@jonmolina948]

That’s when Jimmy Johnson came in and tried to make them into a running team. Marino wasn’t happy needless to say.

You need to watch the 1985 Dolphins/Bears game. The Bears were undefeated at that point with their 4-6 defense. Marino tore them a new anus! The Bears ended up with only that one loss for the year and won the SB.

[@bjchit]

Just as I was saying how rare it was to see a Sammie Smith run not end in a fumble, he and Troy Stradford (another guy known for fumbling) have back to back fumbles.
