A-Train was a beast, I remember watching a game in the early 2000's when Alstott had a clear path to the end zone, but a defender foolishly stomped at him acting as if he was going to hit him. Alstott changed course and ran his ass over in route to a touchdown. Perfect example of the saying "you mess with the bull you get the horns".

They change the rules for the bump and run in 2004. Because in 2003-2004 Season the Colts lost to the patriots un AFC conference final. Season 2004 Payton Manning beat the record for most TD pass on a Season. 49. Record that was held by Dan Marino since 1984. The NFL wanted so bad that Manning could Win a SuperBowl..... And since then, the défense are almost always in nickel défense. The fix is in.

I went to Purdue at the same time we had Alstott in the early 90s. Some pretty bad teams in that timeframe. Back then our offense basically had one play... hand off to Alstott. He would probably get 20+ touches a game. And even though the other team knew what was coming he was unstoppable...just ran people over! It was pretty great to watch. And he got even tougher as a pro.

Point to the sky to thank God. I'm not in any way a religious person, but notice how no player praises God after a big game any more? I guess that's now offensive or "racist" or something. That was also the last season before 9/11, I remember just a few months later, the first NFL games after 911, I remember that clear as day. America and the NFL really rallied together and united. Players prayed together at midfield, carrying American flags onto the field (20 years later they're practically spitting on them). Announcers in the studio were even holding up the Bible and it seemed that America was truly united. Now you have kneeling players, politically correct messaging in the end zones and on helmets. We used to believe in the best of each other. 2000 truly was the end of a great era, and the league has been on a downslide ever since then. I get more enjoyment out of watching replays from 20-30 years ago *despite the fact that I already know the outcome*. How sad is that?

It’s interesting how their were less QBs in their 30’s in 2000, yet in 2020 there’s 10 over 30 and are in their older 30’s. Most sports average age has been getting younger. It would seem that the QB position in the modern NFL has made it possible to play forever if you can keep up your talent

Great vid, thanks! I grew up watching Barry Sanders, Tony Dorcett and Mike Alstott, whom I met, and the game I just watched on Sunday between the Chiefs and Bills is COMPLETELY different, which QB's scrambling forever, it seems, with side-arm throws, wide outs running everywhere and slot receivers like T. Hill making incredible catches. It was common to see QB's knocked out in the '80 and '90's, today, you can't hardly touch them w/o a flag or ejection. I think we're going to see even more changes to avoid all head-on hits, which is fine, as you don't need to sacrifice your life for a game.

“ALSTOTT UP THE GUT” -Legend

Born in 1996. Grew up watching this Era!! The game has evolved, the only thing I miss are the big hits. I love the elite level of passing that developed starting with Texas Tech in early 2000s then went to Oklahoma in 2008 and the NFL started picking it up a year or so later. The spread offense was a college offense for a while but once chip Kelly went to the eagles it really became an offense used at all levels

@marcuscook5145

Жыл бұрын

It's not like elite level passing just magically "evolved" out of college. The spread is only a thing because rules have neutered defenses and their ability to punish receivers first and now QBs and it's a real shame. Makes the game really boring and less physical. Running backs are the only offensive players that can still be punished so offenses simply exploit the rules that advantage the passing game.

6:55 WOW look at that comparison! I wish fantasy football RBs had that type of production nowadays...

Alstott was my favorite player in his era, but sadly his style of play basically destroyed his neck. People may not like the play changes in recent years but there are reasons for them.

There will never be a player like Mike Alstott, he was a complete player. He had great hands out of the backfield as well as a punishing runner. I got to know the man, and he was very humble and appreciative of his fans.

Perfect video for a sunday morning. This was a great time for the NFL, and the reason that I am a titans fan to this day. I was 12 and Steve McNair and Eddie George were awesome to watch.

10:15 Please tell me I'm not the only weirdo thinking this image (saying he was there for the next 6 years) is definitely at the Alamo Dome after Katrina. No shade, just noticed a random dome, the Bills, Reebok unis. I can't imagine there were many good photos of him over the years with how bad they were lol

I’m SO glad you mentioned jimmy kleinsauser when you talked about the full back. As a lifelong Vikings fan I LOVE jimmy and we’ve spent a long time trying to find a guy to put in the backfield who blocks even remotely like him. When we switched him to TE exclusively his initial replacement was tony Richardson… nuff said…. Also our defense was REALLY bad for a long time. All the way up until we landed the Williams wall and the cowboy. We were just not a very good team in my early years (born in 1994) ☹️

When you started listing fullbacks I was like “wth, where’s THE BEAST? The A train?” but right away you did mentioned Alston and dedicated him quite a big chunk. People today really don’t remember or comprehend how big his name was and how is unfair that The Last Great Fullback is not in the hall of fame.

Pretty much any RB from 20 years ago would still be as dominant or even more in today’s pass heavy league. Alstott will probably see 7 men in the box, lighter linebackers and nickle corners trying to tackle him. He was a handful then and will probably be a bigger handful today. But I think he would do serious damage in the passing game as a third down back in the open field

Anyone wondering how amazing 2000 Ravens defense was. In the post season they were next level. They only allowed 1td, a 2 yd run to Eddie George, in 4 playoff games. They held the Broncos to 3, the Titans to 10, the Raiders to 3, and the Giants to 0. Giants had 7pts but that was special teams. So in 4 games. They allowed just 16 pts. 3fg and a td. That’s so insanely good it’s almost hard to even believe a defense can be that good. Especially considering it’s the post season. The AFC championship game and Super Bowl being the most important they only allowed 3pts total in the two biggest games. The teams they beat, the Raiders and Giants were good on offense. Giants scored 20pts and then 41pts in their two post season games… then the Ravens held them to 0 in the Super Bowl. Raiders had 27 pts and then were held to 3 by that Ravens defense. In my eyes they are the GOAT defense, over the 1985 Bears and the 2013 Seahawks.

My dad and uncle used to use them all the time in Madden too. They just had me glued to the screen it was just so much mayhem to me. I was originally a basketball fan up to that point but I remembered those Ravens games changing me. That playoff run will forever be cemented in the back of my mind watching with my family. After 5 years of us losing and not making the playoffs each year, all of a sudden it was like damn our offense suck but we can't lose with this defense. I think it was like October where we went an entire month without the offense scoring but our defense and special teams won us 2 of those 5 then before you know it we pretty much never lost again. Our defense allowed only 1 TD in that entire playoff run That's insane So when we won and finally got that parade downtown in the city, It was so awesome to see From that point I was hooked on football

The NFL strategies and tendencies has been adjusting along with rules changes & medical studies : CTE, recovery, prevention of injuries, etc. The product is different... But it's still a grueling sport.
