Chandler#81 Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 JD Hill, Bobby Chandler, Bubby Braxton, Dennis Shaw & the return of Lou Saban. We lost by just 1 point to the undefeated Dolphins and beat their Super Bowl opponent Washington. There really was promise! 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stranded in Boston Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 Thanks, Chan! What a way to end that season. I recall that Washington had already clinched a playoff spot, so they sat star halfback Larry Brown, the NFL rushing leader going into game 14. The "Over the Hill Gang" was thus fired up to stop OJ --but he still shredded them for 100+ yards to win the rushing crown by 30 yards. ... Plus your guy, #81, high-pointing that TD against Detroit !! 😆 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChasBB Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 (edited) Still a shame that Chandler was never selected to a pro bowl. If the Bills had more success, he may have been selected to several. Edited August 5 by ChasBB clarify 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ned Flanders Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 Remember this team well, thanks for posting. Some observations: An Al Cowlings sighting, who became best know for the quote, "My name is AC, you know who I am godamnit!" Great classic NFL Films music, including "The Happy Runner," appropriately, at the 15:36 mark Alvin Wyatt's odd single-bar facemask J.D.

machine gun kelly Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 If we don’t say it enough, we appreciate Chand you reminding us of our history. 72 was a little before my time as I was in diapers, but nice to see the footage. I loved the 2021 review you just commented yesterday. It’s just sad John Facenda wasn’t still around to narrate. The whole Autumn Wind is a Raider stuff. OJ is a piece of crap as a human being, but god was he talented on the field. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubes Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 Props to Rick Azar for the narration. He was no John Facenda, but the local guy did a nice job. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
