I recall those days well. I remember watching YA Tittle and the famous poster pix of his kneeling body and on his knees with blood trickling down his forehead and cheek. BTW, I just looked it up and Yalberton Abraham Tittle passed on at age 90.

@Frank Apisa,
BroadwayJoe Namath was responsible for putting AFC on the map with his bravado and “guaranteeing a win” in the 1969 SB.

Yup...he did indeed.
And I remember Y.A. Tittle, newly come over from the 49ers (as I remember it) on his knees. I became a fan of the GIANTS when Jim Lee Howell was their coach...and Chuckin' Charlie Conerly was their QB.

Oh, my. Because of the football pools, I was always looking for the mediocre teams. I wanted ties...not blow-outs.
