1985 Bears Dominate The Patriots
Here is a stat showing how badly the 1985 Chicago Bears dominated the New England Patriots in the Super Bowl. In the entire first half, the Patriots ran 21 offensive plays. They only gained positive yardage on four of those 21 plays. 17 plays were run in the first half by New England that either went for no gain or for loss of yards. That is a pretty outstanding defensive performance.
Great Games – Jack Youngblood
Jack Youngblood is a hall-of-fame defensive end who played his entire career for the Los Angeles Rams. One of the things he is famous for is playing through the entire 1979/80 playoffs (including the Super Bowl loss to the Rams) with a fractured left fibula… yeah, it’s safe to say he was a tough guy. Let’s look at one of his great games…
In a 1975 playoff win over the St. Louis Cardinals, Jack Youngblood penetrated into the backfield while being blocked by future hall-of-famer Dan Dierdorf, he then tipped an attempted pass into the air, intercepted it and proceeded to return it 47 yards for a touchdown. Later in the game, Youngblood caused a fumble that was recovered by his teammate Fred Dryer. Still later on, Youngblood managed to block an extra point attempt by the Cardinals.
Wow… what a game!
