Seems like the game has much more of a soul back in the 70s & 80s

I never realized how good that '76 Patriot teams was. They took out the Dolphins, Steelers and Raiders in a row. Beating the 3 teams that dominated the AFC in the 70s like that is an awesome feat.

The 76 Patriots were my favorite all time team. They were a team of destiny. Unfortunatly, the refs took an certain AFC title and probably a Super Bowl away from them in the playoffs. Grogan's Heroes still live in the hearts of us Old School Patriors fans!

Darryl Stingley..RIP

John Facenda mentioned that in 1976, 249 first year players made an NFL roster at a time when the maximum number of players per team was just 43 players. Beginning in 1978 when the NFL went to a 16 game regular season, rosters were expanded to 45 players. It wasn't until 1992 with the beginning of NFL free agency that NFL rosters expanded to the current number from 45 to 53.

Raiders! Just win baby!

In the last three Vikings Super Bowls, (VII, IX & XI), their offense had the ball inside their opponents 5 yard line in each of those games and turned the ball over.

As an 8 year old kid. I became a fan of the NFL. I remember betting my Dad on who would win the Super Bowl that year. Great Memories for me.

Maybe the greatest simultaneous 1 hit wonder tandem in history, Jones&Carr, 76. Bert did have another good year in 77, but for both guys, their 76 years would never come close to being replicated throughout their careers. An uncanny connection that year.

Barely talked about the Bengals in this...they were a AFC powerhouse too.

The Patriots were the best team that year. They annihilated Oakland wk 2 and outplayed them in Oakland in the playoff game. There were a few calls that went against them and Stabler did his thing. The Raiders were great that year but it took some breaks to get past that mostly forgotten Patriot team. How damn cool are those Pats uniforms. Why they changed to the lousy uniforms they currently use is beyond me.

Kinda like the Tuck "rule" / Snow Job? Only the roughing the passer call in 76 was legit...a little penny-anny but at least real, lol. No doubt the 76 Pats were scary good; but the Raiders were the best team, losing only once; and no team has been screwed out of more Super Bowls.

The AFC was the better conference overall in the 1970’s with better more exciting teams with better won/loss records overall than the NFC

winningest team over 14 year period. during the 70s probably the 2nd best team in NFL after Steelers. they seemed to give Steelers a game in playoffs, unlike NFC champs (except for Cowboys). I’d rate the 70s teams as 1. Steelers, 2. Raiders. 3. Cowboys., and 4. Dolphins

A NFC team playing an AFC team during the regular season (Baltimore and Dallas). How did that happen?
