[@tomservo75]

@@kingammo6090 Not the same as it was. Seemed to have more character then. Now it's become so commercial and over-hyped. You don't see NFL Films videos like this anymore. John Facenda and NFL Films were legends at creating art out of words and music. You just don't see the same character today.

[@darkforceb9026]

This should be played at every team meeting, to remind the Raiders what it means to be a Raider. Toughness, Ruthlessness, Swarming Defense, crushing hits, making plays regardless of the defense. This is Raider football this is how you Just Win Baby !

[@RM-fb6sj]

They'd get arrested for hitting like that today. Wtf happened to football?

[@franciscojaviergonzalez4120]

As I'm driving r now. I'm thinking of the same thing. The crowd would go ballistic

[@epic6434]

It's not like they allow that anymore but Jack Tatum about killed a guy on the field and they had some serious characters but CHIEFS were just as good on defense the game has changed I think it's more interesting watching golfers

Yep, GOAT John Facenda verse for any team.

[@ClockCutter]

[@jonburrows8602]

Ironic that what the Raiders are remembered most for are the renegades when what gave them those 3 SBs was the consistent greatness of their offensive line play with solid citizen, traditional guys. I always remember Stabler just standing back there forever pump faking until someone got open and Plunkett constantly stepping up into his protective pocket and then firing one deep.

[@zyzxx1762]

The Autumn Wind is a pirate, Blustering in from sea, With a rollicking song, he sweeps along, Swaggering boisterously. His face is weather beaten. He wears a hooded sash, With a silver hat about his head, And a bristling black mustache. He growls as he storms the country, A villain big and bold. And the trees all shake and quiver and quake, As he robs them of their gold. The Autumn Wind is a Raider, Pillaging just for fun. He'll knock you 'round and upside down, And laugh when he's conquered and won.

[@Katracho-ot3uk]

From a Panthers Fan, respect to “The Autumn Wind”

[@battlestarmarc]

Great video. The raiders were brutal in the 70's.

[@johnkeller5163]

With these Raider years, every single play pulverized their opponents with sheer, unapologetic force. I remember only perhaps the awesome Earl Campbell (with a trifecta of unbridled force, intense speed, and a ferocious tenacity where tackles brought a heavy price to defenders) would bruise the hell out of Oakland's defense; otherwise, Oakland usually brought the pain for every merciless hard fought yard.

[@chesterbenjaminlane826]

I was the luckiest person in the world to meet the late Willie Brown in 1994 and I was only 16 years old and now he's gone but not forgotten either and I just turned 42 years old this past year and I'm still a fan of the silver and black A.K.A. the Raiders and their team is in Las Vegas and they are doing great in my opinion but I still remember the Raiders of old is gone since they moved to Las Vegas in 2020
