Without question. It employed some of the greatest cues in NFL Films' history. Along with devastatingly effective use of slow motion. These elements combined to bring to life, the genuinely brutal character of this game. It wasn't an awful championship, really. It was more of a reflection of a rare instance, in which both teams had years of frustration to exorcise. That there didn't seem to be much flow to it, only bespeaks the utter desperation of each side. The montage, towards the end, is extraordinary in the depiction of that fury (enhanced as it was by a section of a work by Tchaikovsky). As Landry said, long after, it was the hardest hitting game he had ever witnessed.

John Facenda makes these old games worth watching and observing the game from a very different, scholarly perspective.

This is one of the finest masterpieces NFL films ever came out with, John Facenda narrarating and how sloppy yet a hard hitting Super Bowl this was.

I got a life lesson watching the "Blunder Bowl"...it was inspiring to see the Colts fight through all their self-inflicted problems and not quit! A lot of times I just want to quit on life when I look at all my blunders, but the Colts didn't quit, and yeah, even if it wasn't pretty, in the end they were Champions! They would have regretted it the rest of their lives if they laid down and quit because they felt their self-inflicted damage was too much to overcome. God bless them for their perseverance! I saw the Blunder Bowl live on TV when I was only 7 years old, and I'm now 61. I cherish the memory now more than ever!

Who knew the real hero of Super Bowl 5 was Mrs. Ella-May Weatherwax? "Take a blimp ride" LOL!

So either you're being hypocritical or you don't know what actually went down. The FACT is that the Cowboys would have won this game going away had ANY of the following actually happened: 1) Staubach started over Morton (far fewer bad throws and could have gotten away from the Colts defense); 2) the officials not missed the fumble recovery call; 3) Renfro knocked down the TD pass instead of only tipping it. That was the only play the Colts' offense made all day. Not saying the Cowboys made many more, nor am I saying they were necessarily the better team, but Morton played like he was throwing the game (he wasn't -- some of those picks were off receiver's hands). However, your assertion is laughingly incorrect.

Baltimore Colts in Super Bowl 3 to the Jets and the Cowboys with back-to-back NFL championship game defeats to Green Bay. It was extremely hard-hitting and the teams were perhaps both a bit tight due to the high pressure, hence a lot of turnovers. Very hard fought game that unfortunately is remembered for the turnovers.

One of the greatest jobs of narration and music for any single NFL game in history. Unfortunately it was describing a hard nosed, but poorly played game, and certainly the worst played Super Bowl game. The Cowboys had a overall great team in 1971-72, but they unfortunately had Craig Morton at QB. Earl Morrall was a better QB on the day, much better under the relentless pressure. And the Colts defense played their best game ever. As we almost always see, with rare exceptions, the QB makes the difference in nearly every Super Bowl. Walt Garrison does deserve a mention for suiting up after literally having his entire body being destroyed the week before in SF.

Morall was the better quarterback that day, no question, but the bottom line is, effectively his play and leadership led to 0 points. The Cowboys were clearly the better team and got screwed by that erroneous call.

It's pretty cool to see video of my cousin playing in a SB and scoring the tieing TD‐

Who is the composer, and the name of the awesome tune @8:11 of the video, I always loved this particular arrangement, thanks!

Giving Howley the MVP is one of the biggest injustices in sports history. It should have been Mike Curtis or Jim O’Brien IMO

How many times have I watched this film over the years, and I'm just now realizing that the shot of the winning FG is so obviously the extra point that tied the score at 13 (the only extra point the Colts made). These early SB highlight films were so sloppily produced, with clips taken out of context, fake sound effects, and so on. The GOTW version of SB V is so much more honest: kzread.info/dash/bejne/fqp8qJOHdMngaM4.html In 2006, NFL Films finally shows a wide shot of the kick: (41:45) kzread.info/dash/bejne/eqeo18amhsvQn9o.html Why wasn't this used in the 1971 highlight films?

The kick shown that went through the goal posts was his extra point that tied the game. The ball was spotted just 10 yards from the goal line. That kick in reality barely made it inside the upright.

Thanks for that observation. I thought it was weird since Curtis returned that interception to the 28, and the Colts pretty much just lined up the FG from there. They most certainly didn’t get that close; that kick was good well before it even hit top height. Too bad they didn’t have a good representation of the actual kick. Still can’t believe Staubach rode the pine that whole game; Morton looked like shit through most of that game. They would annihilate Miami with Roger the dodger the very next year...

Fifty years ago today in Miami, the first Super Bowl to be ever played with both teams as NFL exclusive members--the old Baltimore Colts (who won), and the Dallas Cowboys! Late in the film/video, some video clips appear BACKWARDS (first mirror image with just over 4 minutes to go)! The Cowboys themselves went backwards in 2020, and missed the playoffs. Maybe next year, Dallas!

Certainly, no one in the NFL, from owners down to players, thought of them as exhibitions, as whoever lost to the AFL entrant would have been responsible for puncturing the haughty and condescending superiority they had supercilliously claimed since 1960.

That's why these Super Bowls really mattered, the money for the winners was more than their salary in some cases.

I heard that the part with Ella Mae Weatherwax in the booth was a set up by NFL Films. I can't find anything on the internet that confirms that so does anyone know for sure?

The best NFL Film Super Bowl high light ever of the worst Super Bowl.

After hearing and watching this particular Super Bowl, it was certainly a very sloppy affair; both offenses and defenses were having off-days, both offenses and defenses played sloppy football, especially the former, it was a defensive affair from the opening kickoff until O'Brien's last second field goal sealed the victory for Baltimore(now Indianapolis), and both teams made many mistakes that caused them to receive tons of penalties, making this a very interesting Super Bowl. 🏟️🏈🏆

Don't tell Johnny Unitas or any of the other members of that team "now Indianapolis." Their loyalty was to Baltimore. When Unitas heard that Art Modell wanted to move the name Browns to Baltimore, he put a stop to it because of how much he resented the name Colts being taken from Baltimore.

This is when the players actually cared about winning.

This is the game that Dallas should have blown out the Colts. They had so many chances in the redzone and only got 1 touchdown out of it. Duane Thomas fumbling at the one, killed it for them. I know Dave Manders recovered the fumble, but that should not have happened. The Colts defense kept the team in the entire game. The Colts defense won it for them, but even after winning the Super Bowl it was an empty win for them. Losing out on Super Bowl 3 always stung them and they never got over it. Even worse the Colts won a sloppy Super Bowl and they never could enjoy it. Dallas could never win the Orange Bowl losing Super Bowl's 10 and 12 there.
