1968 AFL Championship Jets vs Raiders

cant you see it? just as in the super bowl, the jets defense bent- but never broke. can't you see it?

this film is so biased towards the jets.

Makes me wonder how the Colts would have done if they had met the Raiders instead of the Jets.

Lamonica choker inside the twenty over and over Rrrrr dammit

Lucky break JETS👎👎

why was a 12-2 team, actually 13-2 team...playing on the road vs a 11-3 team? its evident that the better team lost. a blind man with a cane could see it

biletnikoff OWNED big mouthed johnny sample, the loud mouthed thug....fred: 7 catches 190 yards...to the point that they benched little brained punk sample.....

what a bullsheet video....totally pro jet? wtf?

Maynard and Belitnikoff we're two of the best recievers I've seen play. They're were great

'free ball - but not advanceable" ??????? ... why why why ???

Old time football 🏈

The music is so captivating….I disregarded the video.

For such an important game, this isn't a very good film. I'm sure NFL Films got some sort of control of AFL filming but I think here we are getting the B team.

The conditions they played under were horrendous compared to recent decades. A different game.

It reminds me of the Heidi
Bowl in 1967 rematch. Raiders won that battle.

Johnny Sample admitted he was a dirty player.

The Oakland Raiders of the late 1960s and early to mid 1970s remind me a lot of the Dallas Cowboys of that time. Oakland lost Super Bowl 2 to the Green Bay Packers in the 1967-68 season. Then they lost two consecutive AFL Championship games in 1968-69 and 1969-70 and then lost the very first AFC Championship game in 1970-71 after the AFL merged with the NFL. The Raiders lost 3 consecutive AFC Championship games in 1973-74, 1974-75 and 1975-76. The Oakland Raiders finally won their first Super Bowl, Super Bowl 11 against the Minnesota Vikings in 1976-77. They lost another AFC Championship game the next year in 1977-78. Dallas lost 2 consecutive NFL Championship games to the Green Bay Packers in 1966-67 and 1967-68 and two divisional playoff games against the Cleveland Browns in 1968-69 and 1969-70. The Cowboys lost Super Bowl 5 to the Baltimore Colts in 1970-71. The Cowboys finally won their first Super Bowl, Super Bowl 6 over the Miami Dolphins in 1971-72. Dallas lost two consecutive NFC Championship games in 1972-73 and 1973-74 and they lost Super Bowl 10 to the Pittsburgh Steelers in 1975-76. Dallas won its second Super Bowl, Super Bowl 12 against the Denver Broncos in 1977-78. Oakland had to deal with the New York Jets and Kansas City Chiefs when they were in their late 1960s AFL prime and then had to contend with the Miami Dolphins.and the Pittsburg Steelers in their 1970s prime plus an unexpected rise of the Denver Broncos in 1977-78. The Cowboys had to deal with the Green Bay Packers and Cleveland Browns of the mid and late 1960s and then face off against the Washington Redskins, Minnesota Vikings and Los Angeles Rams of the early to mid 1970s.

The Raiders were 12-2 and the Jets 11-3. This game should have been played in Oakland.

I was at that game with a good friend. Waited all night in the Shea parking lot for SR only tickets on sale at 8AM. Stood behind the home plate end zone like sardines in the cold. What a game. I consider it the best sporting event I've ever seen in person

...On this day, six weeks later, "Heidi would not interfere"

Back when the Jets didn’t play in what is essentially the Giants’ stadium.

I was just 6, probably playing with my Hot Wheels cars.

Almost as iconic as the players is the Voice of a young Charlie Jones.

Loved watching the AFL when I was a kid

Excellent thanks

I was at this game for free with cousin Carl and a friend Pete Donofrio - At Shea Stadium , Flushing , New York we jumped the fence - !

Why did this game play in N.Y. instead of Oakland? Oakland won the Heidi Bowl game & had the better record also.

It amazing how bad the fields were at the time.

The most important game of the year prior to the most important superbowl thst was fixed, staged, manipulated so the league would survive

Maynard is in pain near the end of game

Sad to see what's become of the Jets in the modern era. Still, it's great to revisit these older games and see how much of a different game football was back then

A Dallas Cowboys vs. the Oakland Raiders Super Bowl would have been SUPER GREAT !!!!! They finally met for the first time in a regular season game after the AFL-NFL merger of 1970 in December of 1974 on the very last Mondy Night Football Game of the 1974 NFL season in Oakland-Alameda County Stadium. Final score:
Oakland Raiders 27
Dallas Cowboys 23

There's never been a horse that couldn't be rode : The Late Great Don Maynard

Was there, 13 turned george into a saftey

just like the colts in the super bowl...lots of yards, not many tds

This was when NFL Films "told a story" about a game unlike now where it's just glorified highlights. Ed Sabol was a true "film maker". RIP to both Ed and Steve Sabol, "Masters of their craft !"

I was at shea stadium in 1969 to see the jets 16 to 6 victory over the buffalo bills .
O J Simpson as a rookie was playing in the game for the bills .

Yeah, I think it was like 18 frigid degrees that day.

me and my Dad in our seats Section 318 Mezzanine, on about the 5 yard line at the closed end. this was a terrific game - the following year versus the Chiefs was even more brutal, a Jets loss. Those were the times of my Life.

Ending at 9:30am west coast time.

Good

The Jets have won their division twice since this game!...Worst organization in sports.

Get out spicks.

Jets have not won a dam thing since that's 57 years and counting
