Here's an interesting article where Philadelphia Eagles coach Andy Reid analyzes a coaches' copy of the 1958 NFL Championship game between the New York Giants and Baltimore Colts, dubbed the ``the greatest game ever played,'' and compares the football to today's game.
Former USC star Frank Gifford was also a star for that Giants team, and Reid said Gifford was one of the few players in that game who could play in the NFL today.
Great article. I was 13 when I watched it and was hooked forever. I can remember the game play by play. I seem to remember it being re shown, or specials on game, so I am surprised film was lost.
Too bad no VHS
The Donkey thanks Scott for recommending the article.
Very good read indeed.
"Gifford was one of the few players in that game who could play in the NFL today."
Don't they know how old he is?
Just kidding.
