One of those games where you're shocked it even went into OT when you look at the box score, seeing as Pittsburgh had 606 yards of total offense compared to Cleveland's 345

Now THIS is the kind of content we need more on this account!

[@NFLVault]

Thought you’d appreciate this one!

@@NFLVault Indeed my friend :)

[@ericsigersmith6067]

@@NFLVault thanks for the content but really hope to see some packers Vikings battles like the antonio freeman game and when redskins signed the all 90s team in the year 2000 all those close games they had other than that keep up good work lol

[@selfdiscardedkingofruin7291]

This brings back so many memories. Long-time Steelers fan. I miss the teams from the 70s and 80s

[@sports3117]

Terry Bradshaw is one of All-Time greats that has ever played football!!

[@Rescue162]

Great game. The MVP of this game in my mind is Franco Harris (1950-2022). Not only did he run for over 140 yards, he caught key passes up the middle to move the ball and make first downs, particularly in OT when it counted. The original broadcast was Sunday, November 25, 1979 when my aunt from Cleveland came to visit my mom and us in N.O. for Thanksgiving. Great memory.

[@JCP405]

Unrelated topic Tim Couch was the first and last Browns QB to beat the Steelers in Heinz Field and out of out of all the Browns QBs since ‘99 he has the best record against the Steelers.

[@ericsigersmith6067]

And got them in the playoffs beating Michael vick

[@christopherwaits7852]

He was 3-4 against the Steelers and had some good games. Hopefully Baker can win Sunday

[@NormanOtterman]

Baker Mayfield has since joined that club with his win at Heinz in the 2020 wild card

[@Sarge_2018]

LC Greenwood was a BEAST 💪🏽

[@billywright9055]

The Steelers were a really good team in the 70s they were a dynasty because of Bradshaw and that ferocious defense

[@devinjerryfreedomisfree4599]

and good running back; Harris, Blier, and great receivers like Swann, Stallworth, the whole team was really good

[@JCP405]

NFL Throwback, as a Raiders fan since we play the Bucs in a couple weeks can you do: Weird Pirate Bowl Rematch: Bucs vs Raiders Week 3 2004 Rich Gannon's last game where he suffered that neck injury that ended his career. Warren Sapp was with the Raiders and Tim Brown as well as Charlie Garner were on the Bucs. Pat Summerall was calling the game instead of Mike Patrick. The last reason that game was memorable was because that was the game where Tim Brown scored his last TD in the NFL. Or you can do Michael Bush ends the Bucs Defensive Reign Raiders vs Bucs Week 17 2008: Jon Gruden's last game with the Bucs, Jeff Garcia's last game starting in the NFL, Derrick Brooks last game, Montey Kiffin's last game coordinating the Bucs' defense, and Michael Bush rushed for like 175 yards and 2 TDs and that was the highpoint of Jamarcus Russell's career and those two wins the Raiders got at the end of the season in 2008 basically got Tom Cable the full head coaching role with the Raiders.

[@ericpackers1700]

That full game is online

This game was played 10 yrs before I was born old school football was the best

No HD footage back in the 70’s huh? 🤷🏻‍♂️LoL

[@astrostar49]

Nice of you to spotlight this game. Great comeback for the Steelers against a quality divisional opponent in an already tight AFC Central. Keep up the good work.

[@akamreverything]

Good Times when we had Terry Bradshaw and the Steel Curtain Defense

[@CopperNoir]

Fans had pretty good parking in those days.

[@stevep8445]

Either that or a very aggressive car dealership :-)

[@christopherwaits7852]

Those are brand new cars. Probably a promotion

[@PACNYY]

I can't wait for this game this Sunday. Not doubt in my mind that the Steelers will win the game.

[@Mercury_458]

Hey man same but this the best browns team they have played in awhile it's going to be a close game

Didn’t know Terry was balding all the way back in 1979

[@lzv6990]

He was balding a few years into his career.

[@PowerPackers90]

He was balding in 1969 lol i still have a set of cards my dad gave me.

[@kimblandino]

He was rocking a comb over on draft day 1970 lmao

[@kaminator515]

I may be a jerk for asking but why in the hell were cars parked at the back corner of the end zone. Great leap by Lynn Swann over those cars. So dangerous. Swann could have been seriously hurt there. Imagine the way they hit back in those days if there had been an aggressive force out

[@erocs9747]

Thats first thought i had
