1961 was Bobby Mitchell's last year in Cleveland. After 4 very successful seasons as a Brown he would join the Washington Redskins were he would play another 7 seasons and be named to the Fall of Fame in 1983. That's Ram John LoVetere closing in on him.

We think this is from an AFL game in 1969 - Don Maynard had 47 catches on the year for 938 yards (a 20.0 YPC average) and 6 scores. In this game he had 8 for 137 receiving yards in a 40-7 Jets win. Named AFL All League and East Squad All Star.

A story from WINK-TV in Fort Myers, Fla. on the Green Bay Packers' game in Tampa against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Oct. 14, 1990. (For some reason - likely an old source tape or bad 1s and Os - the video drops out partway through and you miss a few plays. Apologies.)

NFL history 🏈 Happy 63rd Birthday Ohio State Buckeye Keith Byars! Whichever Team Keith played for, he made better. He was a ferocious blocker, special teams nightmare, excellent RB/ TE & threw 6 TD passes, tied for 3rd All-Time! Immeasureable,multi-talented player that teammates loved. The Consummate Professional

Falcons defenders Tom Pridemore and Bob Glazebrook look to stop Dallas FB Robert Newhouse during the 1980 NFC Playoffs. The Cowboys defeated the Falcons 30-27. A week later the Philadelphia Eagles ended the Cowboys’ playoff run 20-7 and advanced to Super Bowl XV against the Raiders.
