  The Pittsburgh Steelers faced the Baltimore Colts at Memorial Stadium for the opening round of the NFL playoffs on Sunday, December 19th, 1976.
• 0:16
  The Steelers were coached by Chuck Noll and were the defending back-to-back Super Bowl champions.
• 0:21
  Baltimore was coached by Ted Marchabroda. They had reached the playoffs for the first time in five years in 1975,
• 0:27
  but they were knocked out in the first round against the Steelers.
• 0:30
  This audio recording is from the Baltimore Radio broadcast featuring announcers Chuck Thompson, Vince Bagley, and Art Donovan.
• 0:38
  The Steelers, as everybody has known, have done this year what the Colts did a year ago.
• 0:42
  Just beat everybody right on through and have allowed only, you know, 28 points, winning nine straight ball games.
• 0:48
  And that emotion has carried them into what they faced this afternoon, battling the Baltimore Colts.
• 0:53
  And emotion is one of the more important factors any team can bring to any football game.
• 0:57
  We're all ready to go. Linhardt moving on the football, swings the leg, he hits it good.
• 1:01
  A fine Linhardt kickoff, throwback to the two-yard line. He is straight ahead over the 10, the 15.
• 1:06
  Still on his feet, whoop, pop, that fumble. Big pile up at the 22.
• 1:10
  A big pile up at the 22-yard line, and it looks as though the Steelers covered the football. They did.
• 1:16
  Poole was really wracked. He was full-ax. And Fuqua covered his fumble. It is a Steeler ball, first down at the 22.
• 1:24
  You're saying that he didn't take a shot?
• 1:27
  Yeah, he really did. I think Jimmy Kennedy nailed him, and Fuqua recovered it. They were lucky.
• 1:33
  He wouldn't want to play anymore today.
• 1:36
  Vince Bagley, we're very happy to have with us Arthur Donovan, and we've got to try to keep Arthur as close to that mic as we can,
• 1:42
  so we can be sure to hear the Donovan comments this afternoon. First down for the Steelers at their own 22-yard line.
• 1:49
  Closer, let's call it the 23 as we get things started, and they're waiting for Poole to leave field.
• 1:53
  He is still not feeling too good. Rocky Blyer and Franco Harris will be the running backs.
• 1:57
  And Lewis comes wide to the left side, and going far to the other side is Lin Swan.
• 2:03
  Number 88 is far right, and Lewis is a wide left in a standard pro set.
• 2:07
  The turn, the give goes to Harris off the left side, nowhere, as he gets stuck and stuck pretty good.
• 2:12
  By, it looks like, Stan White, first of all, and Darrell Lewis, he managed to carry to the 25, second down, eight Steelers at their own 25.
• 2:19
  He lunge, he did the old Lydell Mitchell lunge, though, after the hitting.
• 2:24
  Most of the good running backs, Vince, all fall the same way. They fall toward that line of scrimmage or toward that goal line.
• 2:29
  That's that second up for Chuck.
• 2:31
  That's what does it. Lewis wide to the left, Swan wide to the right.
• 2:34
  Now Bradshaw splits the backfield, no man directly behind the talented Steeler quarterback.
• 2:39
  A handoff to Blyer, a sweep of his right end, caught from behind and down he goes, this old backfield.
• 2:43
  Jim Chayensky with a quick reaction, caught him from behind, and dropped him at about the 24-yard line.
• 2:50
  Chayensky just followed the pulling guard, and there was nobody there to pick him up.
• 2:54
  He came in there free and makes a great play.
• 2:57
  Which brings up third down, a nine at the 26-yard line. Brian Salter comes in, Jim Chayensky drops out.
• 3:03
  Colts now four down linemen, two linebackers, five deep defenders on a passing down, third and nine Pittsburgh at their own 24-yard line.
• 3:12
  Same offensive set for it. Now they got another number in there, looks like Stallworth is in the ballgame.
• 3:17
  Set out wide to the left side of the set.
• 3:19
  Waiting for the takeaway, Bradshaw is back to pass. A deep drop, set, half-time, firing the bomb.
• 3:24
  All alone, Frank Lewis, he's got it at the 20, and Lewis is going to the 10 to the 5, he scores.
• 3:30
  They are, you give a team that kind of time to throw the ball, they're going to kill you.
• 3:35
  There's a thing where you could, the ballgame turns around, they fumbled the opening kickoff, it came loose, they recovered it, and three plays later they have a score.
• 3:43
  You'll see the Colts got a game going on, Vince. Yeah.
• 3:45
  And actually they're going the wrong way. The straightest distance between two lines is straight, and they got a game, and they get picked up, and that's it.
• 3:53
  76 yards, and Baltimore, which supposedly has the bomb, and certainly has it, Pittsburgh, however, ironically scores on the bomb the first time they throw the ball.
• 4:02
  There was just no contest, Lewis completely outraced the Colts defenders. He had as much as four and five steps on the only man near him, Jackie Wallace.
• 4:10
  The Bradshaw pass right on the money, they lead 6 to nothing.
• 4:13
  Jarrella now ready to make it 7 to nothing, if he can do so.
• 4:17
  Waiting for the snap on the spot.
• 4:20
  There it is, high snap, spot is okay, kick is up in the air, and he missed it.
• 4:24
  He missed the point after touchdown.
• 4:27
  Jarrella blew a point after touchdown, and it is now Baltimore and the Steelers in a 6 to nothing ballgame.
• 4:33
  We have to change the notebook. The Steelers lead at 6 to nothing, and that old automatic point after touchdown is not so automatic this year.
• 4:41
  That's a very often happens with those soccer kickers, he pulled it left, and it was wide, no good, so maybe it'll mean something later on.
• 4:49
  The Colts start early though, have to come back.
• 4:53
  It's the fourth time this year Jarrella has missed a point after touchdown, and it is 6 to nothing, and that could be a heck of a big point in any kind of a ballgame as important as this.
• 5:02
  But that deep bomb from Bradshaw to Lewis has got to give the Colts secondary a little something to think about.
• 5:08
  As in the very first offensive series, they go 76 yards, Bradshaw to Lewis, and lead at 6 to nothing.
• 5:14
  Colts defensive unit, as I look at them down on the sideline, are still stamping around and very, very upset over what took place.
• 5:21
  Jarrella will kick it off down on the goal line, Howard Stevens of the Colts waiting for it, Jarrella moves, hits it, he squirts it along, bouncing it along.
• 5:27
  It's going to be picked up by no one, but it's going to go out of bounds, and they'll kick it over again.
• 5:32
  Well, Ron Lee was around, and Bruce Laird was around the football, but nobody bothered to pick it up, and went out of bounds at about the 26-yard line, and therefore the Steelers go back and do it again.
• 5:41
  I believe this guy, Jarrella, was a soccer player. He don't look like he's a kicker.
• 5:45
  Well, Dunne, he's been a great one, but if he hurt, maybe his hurt stayed with him. I don't understand why they didn't pick it up.
• 5:51
  Dunne, why wouldn't they have picked up, tried to get it out to the 35 or so?
• 5:54
  Well, they figured he can't kick the ball that deep, Vince, and they'll take the 5-yard penalty, and Ron will try to do his thing again.
• 6:01
  And you know, on the extra point that he missed, there was a high snap from center, and that could have been far from what happened.
• 6:07
  All you need is that little bit of a fraction of a second to set the timing off, and Jarrella missed the point after.
• 6:12
  Now, from the 30-yard line, Jarrella will kick it off again.
• 6:15
  We'll talk a little bit more about the Jarrella injury on a kicker. It's a groin pull, and it's a very bothersome thing as he swings a leg, kicking off a lot more difficult than kicking, you know, points after.
• 6:25
  He hits it poorly again, and Ron Lee fumbled it. It's recovered by Bruce Laird. No, he fumbled it. Now Laird picks it up.
• 6:31
  Laird at the 30-yard line, handling the ball one-handed, and is down at the one at the 30-yard line.
• 6:36
  Laird couldn't find any daylight. He couldn't find anywhere to go. Number 51, Leon Toews came in to make the tackle.
• 6:42
  Baltimore goes to work first down at their own 30.
• 6:45
  We got a little fight going down there with 47.
• 6:47
  Sanders, Jarrella trying to upset Blount, because they're going to be after Blount later on. Mel Blount, the right cornerback.
• 6:53
  Oh, that's the guy that, oh, we've got our road runner started now. We'll see what Brady Boy can do with the car.
• 7:00
  With white lightning, undoubtedly wide to the right, car goes wide to the left, and you've got Roosevelt leaks,
• 7:07
  and Lydell Mitchell has setbacks in behind Jones in a standard pro set.
• 7:10
  Chester, the tight end on the right end of the line, turned the gift to the second man that's Lydell nowhere.
• 7:14
  He got into the middle of the line, squirted it through for maybe two yards.
• 7:17
  Jack Lambert, and if he isn't one of the best linebackers I have ever seen, I'll wait for a better one to come along.
• 7:22
  Lydell got two on his own, and there was no hole at all.
• 7:26
  Second down, eight Baltimore at their own 32, the Steelers six, the Baltimore Colts nothing,
• 7:30
  the Steelers scored on a 76-yard bomb. Bradshaw to Lewis, and Jarrella missed the point after.
• 7:36
  Vince, I think the key to our offense today is I think they've got to get a lot of production out of Lydell Mitchell.
• 7:42
  If they don't, I think they're going to be in trouble.
• 7:44
  Well, now both Dowdy and Carr are wide to the left side.
• 7:47
  Slot left is Dowdy, wide to the left is Carr. See if they stay that way, and they do.
• 7:51
  The takeaway, the gift to Roosevelt, Leakes left side, and he is just able to bang it out about to the 35-yard line,
• 7:56
  goes Roosevelt, and two or three of the Steelers in there to wrap him up, including number 34 Andy Russell,
• 8:01
  a 34-year-old linebacker trailing to play number 78 is Dwight Fite.
• 8:05
  Now they're going to have to get some production out of the runners, that's right, whether it be Leakes or Mitchell,
• 8:10
  just to loosen it up a little bit.
• 8:12
  I had a dream last night that this guy, Ron Lee, was going to be the hero of the game, but he hasn't played yet.
• 8:17
  Well, they've just dropped defensive lineman Ernie Holmes out of the ballgame,
• 8:21
  and they've added a defensive back number 31 Donnie Schell.
• 8:24
  And here are the Colts in a double-wing formation with a third and five of their own 35.
• 8:28
  Don McCauley, the only man behind quarterback Jones, he's back to throw, sets up, looks, fires down the gut, incomplete.
• 8:34
  Mitchell, the receiver at the 45-yard line, dropped the football, it was a little bit behind him.
• 8:39
  Very catchable, but it hit him in the hip and got away, so there was an offside, however.
• 8:45
  We got the ball.
• 8:47
  Baltimore retains possession. I don't know if it's enough for a first down, but it's very close at the 40-yard line.
• 8:52
  That ball hit Mitchell in a bad place, the hands.
• 8:55
  Now here's the five-yard step-off, and they put it down, and it should be enough for a first down.
• 9:00
  They are indicating that, and it is offside, first down, a big break for the Colts to keep a drive going.
• 9:06
  At the 40-yard line, first down for Baltimore, 6-0 to Steelers lead here in the opening moments of play.
• 9:14
  Beautiful afternoon at Baltimore. Roger Carr and Dowdy both are wide to the right side of the set.
• 9:20
  That leaves Roosevelt, Leakes, and Lightell. Mitchell is running backs behind Jones.
• 9:24
  Chester tight end, left end of the line.
• 9:26
  Waiting for the snap, the Jones, he turns, rolls back a bit to his right, sets up, fires.
• 9:30
  It is going to be incomplete and almost picked off by the leaping linebacker, Jack Ham.
• 9:35
  And that is one thing these Steelers linebackers do as well as anybody in football, drop back in the pass coverage.
• 9:41
  Chuck, he had a little bit of pressure on him too, Jones, because Joe Green and the right defensive end,
• 9:46
  they were in there putting a lot of pressure on Jones, and he had to throw the ball a little sooner than he wanted to.
• 9:52
  Well, I'm glad he threw it a little higher than he wanted to, because it got away from Ham as a result, Donnie.
• 9:59
  All ready to go with the second-and-ten Baltimore at their own 40-yard line.
• 10:02
  Dowdy trotting out wide right, Carr goes the other way.
• 10:05
  They go to a double wing on one wing. Dowdy on the right side and the left side.
• 10:07
  Lightell, Mitchell, Leakes, the only man on the backfield behind Jones.
• 10:10
  Second and to whoops, the Steelers jump off and make contact.
• 10:14
  And if it's not illegal procedure against Baltimore, the Colts will pick up five.
• 10:18
  Mean Joe Green.
• 10:19
  I really believe Jones moved.
• 10:22
  If it's not illegal procedure against Baltimore, we'll know in a moment.
• 10:26
  Here's Pat Haggerty. He indicates offside to the Steelers.
• 10:33
  So it is second and five. The ball now at the Colts 45-yard line.
• 10:37
  And the only offense the Colts have shown so far has been the Pittsburgh Steelers' mistakes.
• 10:41
  Maybe it's better to be lucky than good.
• 10:43
  Number 75, defense.
• 10:46
  You're right, Artie. It was Joe Green, number 75, who made contact.
• 10:51
  Second down and five, Baltimore at their own 45-yard line.
• 10:54
  The Steelers got unwielded and untracked in a big hurry, leading six to nothing.
• 10:58
  Dowdy wide to the right side. Roger Carr split off on the left.
• 11:02
  Waiting for the snap to Jones in motion.
• 11:04
  Back toward the backfield. Dowdy to get to Lightell.
• 11:06
  The sweep on the right side. Makes a cut and gets pinched in there.
• 11:08
  And that great big linebacker, Jack Lambert, was over there to plug up that hole.
• 11:12
  And the gain is good about to the 47-yard line where it's now third and three at the Colts 47.
• 11:19
  Well, they said they couldn't jam it down their throats.
• 11:22
  They're short-testing them, aren't they, Dunny?
• 11:24
  Yeah, they're trying to, but I don't say they're wasting time.
• 11:27
  We're doing what you think is best, and I think what would be best is throw the ball at the card.
• 11:31
  And that's what I thought Jonesy ought to start doing.
• 11:34
  Well, on the third down, three at the 47, we'll know in a moment his card goes wide to the left side.
• 11:38
  Dowdy comes wide to the right.
• 11:40
  And now they turn it into a double wing.
• 11:42
  Dowdy, the wing on the right side, and Lightell, the wing on the left side.
• 11:45
  Only man behind the quarterback is Don McCauley.
• 11:48
  Back to throw is Jones.
• 11:49
  Pills is passed, caught by Lightell Mitchell, and out of bounds at the Steeler, 47-yard line for a first down.
• 11:54
  Glenn Edwards made the tackle for the Steelers.
• 11:57
  The guy that made that play was McCauley, picking up the pussy middle guard.
• 12:00
  He did a good job of blocking for Jones then.
• 12:03
  There they come.
• 12:06
  At the 48-yard line of the Steelers, first down for the Baltimore Colts.
• 12:11
  A drive that started at their own 30.
• 12:13
  Now the Steelers 48, abetted by two Steeler penalties.
• 12:17
  One was an offside, both were offside penalties, as a matter of fact.
• 12:20
  We'll get Arthur to talk a little bit about Joe Green later on in the ballgame.
• 12:23
  He every now and then is found lining up offside.
• 12:26
  He really gets right on the nose of the football.
• 12:28
  He's closer to the center than he is to the guard.
• 12:30
  And we're in an eye formation.
• 12:32
  Leaks the front man, Lightell, the second man, fake to Lightell, a deep drop.
• 12:35
  Jones firing for broke.
• 12:36
  Here comes Roger Carr, but it's intercepted by Wagner.
• 12:39
  Wagner's got it to the Steeler, 20.
• 12:41
  Along the 25, and it's being chased by Roosevelt Leakes, and down he goes.
• 12:45
  The 23-yard line, Bert Jones also in on the tackle.
• 12:48
  Bert Jones really moved down there, but he had pressure on him.
• 12:52
  He really did. He got hit just as he threw the ball.
• 12:54
  With the score, the Steelers 6, the Colts nothing.
• 12:56
  There's a break, and the action. Let's pause now for this message.
• 13:00
  Sailboat racing season's almost over.
• 13:02
  We won't have any more chances to win this year.
• 13:05
  Sure we will.
• 13:06
  The lottery's giving us a lot more chances to win in the weekly games.
• 13:09
  You know, in the super 50-cent game, there are now two big chances to win the million-dollar prize.
• 13:13
  And in the 17-for-one-dollar, 17 chances for weekly prizes up to $125,000.
• 13:18
  Wow, that sounds great.
• 13:20
  But remember, in the lottery, you've got to play to win.
• 13:23
  Oh, that's like sailing.
• 13:24
  How?
• 13:25
  Well, in sailing, you've got to have wind to play.
• 13:28
  Oh, man.
• 13:29
  Ooh.
• 13:34
  They're the same ornaments and the same lights,
• 13:37
  but somehow this year's tree is always more beautiful than last year's.
• 13:42
  And we at Households and Ants hope this holiday season will be the best and happiest ever for your family.
• 13:48
  If we can make the coming year happier or more enjoyable for you,
• 13:52
  just call Households and Ants, an equal opportunity lender.
• 14:00
  Well, the Steelers leading 6-0. We mentioned on the pass to Lewis that the only man near him was Jackie Wallace.
• 14:05
  Don't misinterpret that remark. That doesn't mean necessarily that it was Jackie's mistake or his fault.
• 14:11
  It just might have been a missed coverage, and Jack just turned out to be the only man close enough to give any kind of a chase.
• 14:16
  But it was a perfectly thrown pass from Bradshaw to Lewis that accounts for the Steelers leading by a score of 6-0.
• 14:22
  And under, you know, very strong pressure, Bert Jones has just thrown.
• 14:27
  It was intercepted by Wagner of the Steelers. They go to work at their own 22-yard line first down.
• 14:32
  Lewis wide to the left side of the set.
• 14:34
  And going the other way over there now is 88 Lynn Swan, and we've got Fuqua in the backfield, along with Franco Harris.
• 14:40
  Waiting for the takeaway by quarterback Bradshaw. He turns, gives it to the first man through, and that is Franco Harris.
• 14:47
  And he is out about to the 28, maybe 29, or let's call it 28-yard line before Bruce Laird, among others, able to make the start.
• 14:53
  That was just straight block, and that was a blue-eyed defensive line out on that play.
• 14:57
  He picked a 5, 6 yards, just a straight handoff.
• 15:01
  Second down and 4 for the Steelers. Ah, the straight ahead buck from Franco Harris.
• 15:06
  Now Fuqua and Harris side to side on the backfield. Swan wide to the right side, and it looks like Stallworth now.
• 15:12
  82 is wide to the left side of the set.
• 15:15
  And the turn, the give goes to Franco Harris, hit and shakes a tackler.
• 15:18
  Bruce Laird caught him and took him down on his own backfield.
• 15:20
  Darrell Lewis tried to put him down. He didn't get him, but he slowed him up enough so that Bruce Laird could get there and floor him.
• 15:26
  At the Steelers, 27, a loss of 2.
• 15:29
  That's a good defensive play. Lewis actually forced that play, Chuck, where Franco Harris couldn't turn the corner.
• 15:35
  And Bruce Laird came up like a defensive safety should.
• 15:38
  There goes Rocky Breyer leaving the field now.
• 15:41
  They're taking Breyer into the dressing room. He seems, you know, walking all right.
• 15:45
  I haven't any idea what the injury is. We'll get the information to you as quickly as we can right now.
• 15:49
  Steelers, 3rd and 6th with their own 27. They have 3rd and 9th with their own 24 and score the last time.
• 15:54
  Take away by Bradshaw. Deep drop wants to fire. No pressure. Fires down the middle.
• 15:58
  It is caught by Lewis at midfield, and he has taken down at the Baltimore 45.
• 16:03
  To tackle credit, Bruce Laird and Jack Wallace.
• 16:06
  First down, Steelers at the cold 45.
• 16:08
  Watching this guy only throw two passes, Chuck, and no pressure at all.
• 16:12
  We're going to have to stop Blitz, really, because nobody was in five yards of Bradshaw when he got into the ball.
• 16:18
  Look at the deep drop though, Dunne. He's 15 yards back. He looked like a punter from the distance back of the scrimmage line when he threw the ball.
• 16:24
  Nobody talked about Frank Lewis this week. He's 2 for 2, 1 all the way.
• 16:29
  Yeah, well then we better stop Blitz and get some pressure on him.
• 16:33
  Swan goes wide to the right side, Stallworth wide to the left side, and it's first down at the Baltimore 46.
• 16:39
  Steelers in possession. The gift goes to Frank O'Harris. Swings to the left side, and it's going to be caught and down in his own backfield.
• 16:44
  Jackie Wallace got there enough to slow him up and trip him, and then Mike Barnes got into the flow along with Stan White, and they put him down maybe at the 45.
• 16:52
  We'll see where they put it down at the line of scrimmage again, second and 10 at the cold 46.
• 16:59
  The injury to Rocky Blyer is a foot injury. However, he did not seem to give evidence of too much discomfort as he walked into the dressing room.
• 17:07
  But they're back there to see if they can't rewrap the foot, of course, to give him some comfort and allow him to play a little bit better.
• 17:13
  Now Lewis back in his wide left, and Lynn Swan is wide to the right.
• 17:17
  The stealer quarterback Yates reacts away without a fake. He wants to throw no pressure again. He fires upfield and is knocked down by Jackie Wallace.
• 17:24
  And a penalty flag drop to the 25-yard line of the Baltimore Colts.
• 17:28
  Frenchy Fuqua was down there, and it might be Stan White interfering with him.
• 17:32
  I think Chayosky tripped number 33.
• 17:37
  It's pass interference. Baltimore first down for the Steelers.
• 17:42
  I think Chayosky tripped Fuqua. He's saying Rocky Blyer is going to get a shot.
• 17:48
  First down.
• 17:50
  They got Stan White according to Pat Haggerty.
• 17:54
  The outside linebacker on the right who tripped Fuqua.
• 17:59
  The ball is spotted now. They're going to put it down at about the 31-yard line of the Baltimore Colts on a pass interference penalty against Stan White.
• 18:07
  He tripped Fuqua. That is not to say he did it intentionally. He does not have to do it intentionally.
• 18:12
  You get your feet wrapped up, and that can happen, and has happened frequently.
• 18:17
  And it's a pass interference call against Stan White.
• 18:20
  Well, we've got Stallworth wide left, wide right, Swan. We've got Fuqua and Franco Harris is running back.
• 18:26
  First down, Pittsburgh at the Baltimore 31.
• 18:29
  Bradshaw fakes and gives it off to Franco Harris. Swing it around his own right end, stops, makes a cut, and down he goes at the 30.
• 18:35
  Baltimore, defensing the running efforts of Franco Harris very well at this early point of the ballgame.
• 18:40
  Jim Chayonsky got tackle credit at the 30-yard line, second and nine.
• 18:44
  Funny why technically are we doing such a good job against the sweeps? We've not allowed anything on sweeps.
• 18:49
  I don't think we've ever allowed anything the whole season. I think we've been very strong against sweeps, Vince.
• 18:54
  I think a weakness as far as the runners concerned is running right out on our defensive line, and they're not doing it.
• 19:00
  Frank Lewis wide to the left side, put out to the right side now is Lin Swan.
• 19:05
  You've got Franco Harris and Fuqua. Here's a swing pass to Fuqua on the right side.
• 19:08
  He is making a cut and hit from behind at about the 27 or 28-yard line.
• 19:12
  Brett Cook got to it very quickly. Mike Barnes is also in on the play.
• 19:16
  And Laird also down around the ball along with Darrell Luce.
• 19:21
  And the ball is about at the cold 27, gained a 3-3 and 6.
• 19:25
  Vince, I think you'll find that our defensive line are very agile as far as getting out into the flow.
• 19:31
  I don't think we're that strong against running right at them.
• 19:35
  They're down and 6 at the Baltimore cold 27-yard line. This game is going to be replete and full of big plays.
• 19:40
  And here's one of them right now. Lewis and Swan are wide to the right side.
• 19:44
  Stalworth splits off wide to the left side. All ready to go. The Colts jump off and got back.
• 19:50
  Now Franco Harris moves. He's in motion. And back to throw goes Brad Shaw.
• 19:53
  The penalty flag is down. The throw coming to the end zone. Incomplete intended for Lynn Swan down around the 5-yard line.
• 19:59
  But a penalty flag has been dropped in the Steeler backfield.
• 20:03
  Perfectly thrown ball. Swan couldn't quite pull it in.
• 20:07
  Taking a good catch to get it. But let's see what this is all about. Listen to the referee.
• 20:13
  It's illegal procedure against the Steelers.
• 20:17
  The illegal motion, I think an illegal shift from Franco Harris might be the reason.
• 20:20
  We'll know in a moment when we hear from Haggerty.
• 20:23
  Whoops, hold on a minute there Mr. Referee. He got all tangled up with Sam Davis.
• 20:28
  Illegal motion, number 33, offense, declined.
• 20:31
  We're wrong. It was Pucla who was in motion and it was declined.
• 20:35
  But of Baltimore Colts, here comes Roy Jarella to kick a field goal.
• 20:39
  It'll be spotted at the 37-yard line, meaning it's a 47-yard field goal effort.
• 20:44
  He's been successful four of seven tries outside the 40-yard line.
• 20:48
  Let's see if Mike Paz doesn't block this one.
• 20:51
  Well they're going to put it down at the 35 so it becomes a 45-yard field goal effort.
• 20:56
  Well if he hurts we'll know now because they said about him.
• 21:00
  They'll give him two chances to kick the ball.
• 21:03
  Down to the 10 and another kick over the goal post.
• 21:06
  All ready to go. We're waiting for the snap.
• 21:10
  Still wait for the snap. There it is. Spot kick on the way.
• 21:14
  Headed toward the uprights. It's going to be good.
• 21:18
  Jarella has hit it from 45 yards out and it's now the Steelers.
• 21:22
  Nine, the Baltimore Colts nothing with a score.
• 21:24
  Pittsburgh nine, the Colts nothing.
• 21:26
  Time out here in Baltimore back in 60 seconds.
• 21:30
  When our great grandfathers wanted the vested look, they came to hamburgers.
• 21:36
  And when our grandfathers wanted the double-breasted look, they came to hamburgers.
• 21:42
  And when our fathers wanted the ivy league look, they found it at hamburgers.
• 21:48
  Because since 1850 there has only been one leader in fashion.
• 21:54
  And deserving that reputation took more than just offering the highest quality merchandise.
• 21:59
  It also meant being the leader in service.
• 22:03
  I was specially trained as sales people. I'd never settled for just giving directions.
• 22:08
  They said they've always helped you find what you want and have seen to it that you get the attention
• 22:14
  and the fit you expect from a leader in fashion.
• 22:18
  Hamburgers, the best place to look when you want to look your best.
• 22:28
  Well, we'll have Jarella ready to kick off.
• 22:30
  Down on the five-yard line Howard Stevens waiting. Jarella moves at the ball, hits it.
• 22:34
  He's got a kind of a sailing knuckleball to Jarella to Stevens at the ten, to the fifteen, now the twenty, twenty-five, thirty.
• 22:40
  And head on into number fifty-four and taken down at that spot Marv Kellum, a linebacker.
• 22:45
  And they pick Stevens up and run him all the way back to the fifteen.
• 22:48
  And I don't know what's going on now, but all of a sudden there's a little bit of a brawl.
• 22:52
  WNAV in Annapolis, Maryland. And all of our network stations, we pause now for station identification.
• 22:58
  This is the Metro Media Baltimore Coast Football Network.
• 23:02
  This is Jack Edwards with you each night, seven until midnight on 68WCBM, Metro Media Radio Baltimore.
• 23:08
  WCBM, Coach Radio.
• 23:16
  Some of these guys figure they shouldn't be touched.
• 23:18
  I don't know, look at this.
• 23:20
  Oh boy, Howard, go after him.
• 23:38
  Well, in the first offensive play, we had a carry up the middle by Lydell, good for two yards to the thirty-two yard line.
• 23:45
  And rather good for one yard to the thirty-two yard line. And now it's Baltimore, second down to nine at their own thirty-two.
• 23:51
  The Steelers have just dominated the ballgame through this first period with about five fifty remaining in a split backfield right now.
• 23:58
  Card of the left side down into the right side. Jones looking at the Steeler defensive unit, takes it away, gives it to Lydell.
• 24:03
  Lydell and a quick hitter go straight up the middle to about the thirty-five and a penalty flag follows him.
• 24:07
  Andy Russell is there to rope him.
• 24:09
  They're going to motion finally against the Colts. I wouldn't be surprised if Pittsburgh declines.
• 24:15
  I think these officials watched the game yesterday. They want to throw as many flags.
• 24:19
  As far as I can see, Arthur, maybe they do want to match them in flag throws, but I can see justification for these penalty markers.
• 24:27
  There were a few I watched in Oakland yesterday. I just couldn't figure out.
• 24:31
  Vince, I'm waiting for Roger to, for Bert Jones to really unload.
• 24:34
  Well, he's tried to unload. He hasn't had time to unload. I'm waiting for him to throw up the backs coming out of the backfield.
• 24:39
  Here's Haggerty.
• 24:42
  Number twenty-six, decline, third down.
• 24:45
  The Steelers declined. They might not throw to the backs coming out of there because of those super linebackers who were as fast as a lot of backs.
• 24:51
  It was Lydell Mitchell who moved prior to the snap and they declined the motion penalty to bring up third down six Baltimore at their own thirty-five.
• 25:01
  Baltimore spills out of the huddle. Carr comes wide to the right side. Doughty goes to the left side to go to a double wing.
• 25:07
  And Lydell is the wingman on the right side. On the other side it is Doughty.
• 25:11
  The takeaway by Jones. He rolls to the left, wants to throw, fires.
• 25:15
  Chester makes a heck of a catch at the forty-six yard line.
• 25:19
  Raymond Chester, a diving grab, as good a catch as Raymond has made all year to pick up first down Baltimore at the forty-six.
• 25:26
  This is good. They got one on one. He makes a real good move to the outside. Great effort. Really great effort.
• 25:32
  Another thing, if they're doubling the wide guys, Raymond's going to get open and they're going to have to throw to him.
• 25:38
  How many times are you allowed to chug the end coming out one time?
• 25:41
  One time.
• 25:42
  Well, you're a watch twenty-four against Carr.
• 25:44
  That's one time legally.
• 25:46
  One time if you don't get caught, twenty times.
• 25:48
  That's right.
• 25:50
  The high formation right now leaks the front man, Lydell, the second man. The give goes to Lydell. Lydell hits a pretty good hole and gets roped off his pins at about midfield.
• 25:57
  It's Jack Russell down, Andy Russell down at the bottom of the pile making the tackle for Pittsburgh.
• 26:01
  And somebody nailed him right up around the ears coming through the hole and knocked him off.
• 26:05
  A pick up of four brings up second down six Baltimore at the fifty.
• 26:09
  Danny, I like the way the coats aren't panicking. They're behind nine to nothing, but they haven't gone to the offensive they'd use if there was a minute left in the game or anything.
• 26:18
  They're being conservative.
• 26:19
  Well, you go, Vince, with what your game plans are and you just, you know, that's what you think you can do best against the team and that's what you've got to stay with.
• 26:26
  Down a wide to the right side of the set car. The other way, Jones to the second man out of the eye. Lydell Mitchell bouncing off people down to the stealer forty-eight.
• 26:33
  And he is going to be roped and pulled back there. JT Thomas, Jack Hamm in on the tackle.
• 26:37
  And also that good defensive safety man, Glenn Edwards helped out.
• 26:42
  It was just no hole at all, period.
• 26:44
  We're really coming up with a lot of third and fours and fives, though. That's tough.
• 26:48
  We have had a third and five. We've had a third and three. We've had a third and six. Now a third and four.
• 26:56
  The situation like this, though, every once in a while you cough that ball up. Let's see if he doesn't go back to Chester again. Right down over the middle.
• 27:03
  Down a wide right car. The other way, wings of left side is Lydell Mitchell. McCauley, the only man behind the quarterback, Jones.
• 27:10
  Third and four of the forty-eight of the Steelers. Back to throw. Burt looks, looks, throws it down the middle.
• 27:14
  Chester's gutted. He's in the grass with the tackler and down he goes at the Steelers forty-two yard line.
• 27:19
  The tackler was Jack Hamm. It's first down, Baltimore. And Artie Donovan called it right out of money, Vince.
• 27:25
  He said Chester right down the middle and that's where it was.
• 27:27
  Absolutely. He had the left linebacker playing.
• 27:30
  This guy, he's all over him. He's all over him like an octopus.
• 27:35
  At the Steelers forty-one yard line, Baltimore with a first down.
• 27:39
  Pittsburgh nine, Baltimore nothing. Time remaining first quarter, three minutes and nine seconds.
• 27:44
  Car wide left side, down a wide right. Chester a tight end, right end of the line.
• 27:49
  Eye formation, leaks the front man, Lydell the second man.
• 27:52
  Ideal time for the bomb. Ideal, ideal.
• 27:55
  But Jones play action, takes the hand off, rolls deep, rolls to his right, looks for her, see the lobs it up the Lydell.
• 28:00
  At the thirty, Lydell to the twenty-five. Mitchell on his feet at the Steelers, twenty yard line.
• 28:06
  And third had the option, he might have been able to run for half of that.
• 28:18
  Lydell's great elusive ability got him twice as much as he deserved.
• 28:23
  He got into the twenty, twenty-one yard game.
• 28:27
  Well, a Baltimore Colt drive that started at a Colt thirty-one yard line right now is to the Steelers twenty yard line.
• 28:34
  Car wide left, down a wide right. Eye formation is shown.
• 28:38
  Roosevelt leaks the front man in the eye, Lydell the second man.
• 28:41
  Chester tight end, right end of the line.
• 28:44
  Waiting for the snap from Mendenhall.
• 28:46
  Jones has the first man as leaks. He gets the hand off and powers over the left side down to about the Steelers sixteen.
• 28:52
  Where he is stacked up by LC Greenwood.
• 28:57
  Well, that's a good one there. It's, uh, he picked up what, four yards?
• 29:00
  Four is right. Yeah, that's better than one.
• 29:03
  That was his play before and a pass to Mitchell.
• 29:06
  That was where it was a busted play really.
• 29:08
  Jones had a roll out of there and he comes up with a first down.
• 29:13
  A year ago in a game like this, a fellow like Bert Jones might have been running with that football.
• 29:18
  Today a year's maturity is there.
• 29:20
  A year more of the smarts as they sometimes say and he hit his man, Lydell Mitchell.
• 29:25
  Second down, six of the Steelers sixteen. Split on the backfield. Nobody behind the quarterback, Jones.
• 29:29
  Jones right back to throw. No fake. Sets up. Good protection. Firing to the end zone. Roger Card. Touchdown.
• 29:35
  Touchdown five.
• 29:53
  Well, you take a seventeen yard bomb with a catch like that.
• 29:57
  A diving catch in the senders in Orr'sville, made famous by Jimmy Orr a few years ago.
• 30:03
  And you know, Vince, he really got hit on that play as he released that ball.
• 30:06
  I saw it.
• 30:07
  Well, Hardy Donovan kept saying, Vince, I wonder where Carr is. When's he going to go to Carr?
• 30:11
  I think he should go to Carr. He did go to Carr. The Colts around the board with a touchdown.
• 30:16
  And now Tony Lindhardt will try to add the point after touchdown out of a hold by Bill Troup.
• 30:20
  Snap. Spot. Kick. Good.
• 30:24
  No penalty flies. And there is a tie-down with the score. The Steelers nine and the Colts seven.
• 30:33
  Sweet handling cars.
• 30:37
  The 77 Mustang Cheese.
• 30:41
  With a package of handling features nowhere. The domestic car and its class offer.
• 30:45
  Four on the floor. Practice brakes. Staggered shocks. Wide stance and rack and pinion steering.
• 30:51
  All standard on every Mustang.
• 30:54
  Five one.
• 30:56
  You have to feel it in action.
• 30:59
  Sweet handling car. Mustang too.
• 31:03
  With one between the road and you.
• 31:07
  Just got a sweet handling car. Mustang too.
• 31:12
  With one between the road and you.
• 31:15
  See all the 77 Mustang too. Hacks back, notch backs, gears and the super coupes Mach 1 and Copa 2.
• 31:22
  Just drive one at your Ford dealer. When America needs a better idea, Ford puts it on wheels.
• 31:27
  See your local Ford dealer. The better idea guys.
• 31:34
  Well the first half of the first quarter definitely belonged to the Pittsburgh Steelers. They hung up a quick nine points.
• 31:40
  The second half of this quarter belongs to the Baltimore Colts. They have just come off a nine play drive that covered 69 yards and was culminated on a 16 touchdown pass.
• 31:49
  Jones to Roger Carr is now the Steelers nine. The Colts seven with a minute 17 remaining in the first quarter.
• 31:56
  Linhart to kick off. Downfield Theo Bell on the near sideline. Across the way it looks like it's Fuqua.
• 32:02
  And the middle man is again the fellow who got hurt in the opening kickoff Ernie Poe.
• 32:07
  Here comes Rocky Brab back but he's looking worse now than he did when he left the field.
• 32:11
  That's exactly right he is.
• 32:13
  Here is Linhart moving on the football. Swings a leg. Tony hits it pretty good. High and fairly deep.
• 32:18
  And it's taken down there by Theo Bell at the 10 to the 15. Laterally along the 20 to the 25.
• 32:23
  Cuts outside in the open and Theo Bell is up the midfield into cold territory.
• 32:28
  And it's going to be pulled out of bounds around the Baltimore 32 or 3 yard line.
• 32:33
  Theo Bell the returner and Ricky Thompson the man who prevented the touchdown.
• 32:38
  You know this week Linhart told me that's the ideal kickoff to the side of the field about the 8 yard line.
• 32:44
  That's the spot because the sprint men can get down to the balls high enough as that was.
• 32:48
  But he got away from that immediately broke it to the other side.
• 32:51
  And Pittsburgh is in super position at the Colts around the 32.
• 32:54
  That guy had to run a thousand yards. He ran away all the way to the other side of the field.
• 32:58
  He turned up first down Steelers at the Baltimore Colts 32 3 yard line.
• 33:04
  The turn the handoff to Franco Harris off the right side into the opening edge down to the 20 yard line.
• 33:09
  And then gang tackled to take him down at the 20 yard line.
• 33:11
  It looked like Jackie Wallace along with Stan White helped their role the big man over at the 20.
• 33:16
  And he's got a first down Steelers at the cold 20.
• 33:19
  This is a straight handoff. There's good blocking at the point of attack.
• 33:23
  He's missed by Chayonsky.
• 33:25
  It looks like Muffin is trying to get out of the way and here comes Wallace over.
• 33:29
  He's been gone for six.
• 33:31
  Not very fancy but first down at the 20.
• 33:34
  This time they've got number 82 John Stalworth wide left.
• 33:37
  Swan wide right they're set.
• 33:39
  The takeaway the give goes to Franco Harris into the middle.
• 33:41
  He fights for a running room and crashes inside the 15 yard line before being taken down by Fred Cook.
• 33:46
  And Freddy had a little help from guys like John Dutton and Bruce Laird.
• 33:50
  The gain is being marked right about at the 15 yard line.
• 33:54
  So it's second down and this guy's a great runner.
• 33:56
  He's a whole wasn't there at the point of attack and he just did a little bit to his right and picks up five yards.
• 34:01
  The big man that's really moving.
• 34:03
  Stalworth and Lewis keep bringing plays in and they're all in it.
• 34:07
  And we are now have come to the end of the first quarter with our score.
• 34:10
  The Steelers nine and the Colts seven.
• 34:16
  Well we're ready to go down to the second period of play.
• 34:18
  The Steelers lead at nine to seven.
• 34:20
  That touchdown pass Jones to Roger Carr to put the Colts on the board is the first touchdown against the Steelers in the first quarter this year.
• 34:28
  Check one of the highlights of this team consistently through the years been its ability.
• 34:32
  Baltimore that is to make a big defensive play when they need it.
• 34:35
  They scored they were back in it nine to seven.
• 34:37
  Pittsburgh got that great kickoff return and now they're down at the inside the 15 yard lines.
• 34:42
  If Baltimore if ever needs a big defensive play now to kind of get the momentum back a little bit.
• 34:47
  I would look right now Vince I would look to Bradshaw the tall pass off a play action.
• 34:53
  Let me see now.
• 34:55
  We've got Lewis wide to the left side and Swan wide to the right.
• 34:59
  Pucquah and Franco Harris are the running backs behind Bradshaw.
• 35:03
  The turn the give goes to Franco Harris right up the middle running over the top of people down to about the 11 yards to the six yard line goes Franco Harris.
• 35:10
  Evidently Bradshaw didn't hear me.
• 35:12
  Listen I tell you he wore the same number does he remind you of Jim Brown the way he runs.
• 35:17
  No he runs over people Jim Brown used to run around him.
• 35:20
  This guy is something else.
• 35:22
  It is first and goal Pittsburgh at the Baltimore just inside the Baltimore seven yard line.
• 35:28
  You know Vince you got to give the dudes up front on the offensive line to the Steelers a little bit of credit too because it was a hole that I could have run through then.
• 35:36
  And I couldn't run too fast.
• 35:40
  All ready to go with Pucquah and Franco Harris to split backfield.
• 35:43
  Nobody behind Bradshaw first down at the six Bradshaw gets it off the field off the right side he has chopped off his pins inside the five.
• 35:49
  It looked like Chyensky got a hunk of him and then Jack Wallace also field in there to take him down at about the LSE where they put the football down around the three yard line.
• 35:58
  I thought maybe the crowd who makes a lot of noise in the close end might help out here on the in the goal line stand.
• 36:05
  They're very quiet now and actually what Steelers offensive line is doing now they're just challenging ball is on the defensive front for Wallace coming out of the game Dan Dickel another linebacker goes in Pittsburgh lines up on the standard process.
• 36:18
  Shoulder to shoulder Pucquah and Franco Harris to give to Franco Harris left side down about the one and I don't know the angles too bad I can't call he didn't get him.
• 36:26
  He is shy about a foot or so down around the cold one yard line.
• 36:32
  Third down coming.
• 36:35
  Let's look and see if Bradshaw doesn't pull another play like watch his name to just stay stable.
• 36:40
  Why take a chance on getting hurt with Frank on the game.
• 36:43
  Give it to Franco and here we go.
• 36:45
  Okay.
• 36:46
  They have a new running back in there.
• 36:47
  Franco Harris is out.
• 36:49
  Reggie Harris is in along with Pucquah.
• 36:52
  They're down a goal of the one foot line the turn they get the Harrison off the right side touchdowns.
• 36:58
  Harrison off the right side went in without too much trouble.
• 37:02
  They just do Chayensky cook and Mike Barnes right out of there.
• 37:06
  They folded the left side of our defensive line right down into the middle.
• 37:12
  Leaving it up to Lloyd Mumford to try to hold them off and that was an over match.
• 37:18
  It just it's just good running.
• 37:19
  They just blows through people.
• 37:22
  Well the Steelers have run as well if not better than anybody in the league this year and they're showing the Baltimore Colts defensive unit that they didn't get here on good breaks and luck.
• 37:31
  Waiting for the point after touchdown.
• 37:33
  The snap still wait there's a snap the spot the kick is in the air and Jarrella does it this time.
• 37:38
  Let's see if there's a penalty fly down.
• 37:39
  There aren't any penalty flights.
• 37:40
  Kick is good and so the Steelers have added another seven with a score.
• 37:44
  The Steelers 16 the Colts seven.
• 37:46
  There's time out of Baltimore back in one minute.
• 37:49

• 38:55
  Chuck Thompson with Vince Bagley and we're happy to have the Hall of Famer Arthur Donovan with us this afternoon.
• 39:00
  Hey Vince, if I'm the coach of the coach I gotta move Howard Stevens up to the 15 yard line.
• 39:07
  Because I have a running head start on these dudes coming down.
• 39:10
  This guy isn't going to kick it any further than that.
• 39:12
  I hope he hears me.
• 39:14
  He hits it and missed it again.
• 39:15
  It bounces.
• 39:16
  Ron Lee picks it off to the 25 to the 30.
• 39:18
  To the 35.
• 39:19
  At the 40.
• 39:20
  To the 45.
• 39:21
  Up to the 47 yard line goes Ron Lee.
• 39:24
  Once he made up his mind there wasn't anywhere to duck and dodge.
• 39:26
  Lee put his head down and just carried it to people.
• 39:29
  Donnie Shell was among those to take him down at the Baltimore 47 first down.
• 39:34
  Outstanding kicking tool.
• 39:36
  Jarrella limping off.
• 39:39
  Didn't hurt him with a 45 yard field goal.
• 39:42
  I think it hurt his pride.
• 39:43
  Roger Carr wide left wide to the right.
• 39:46
  Glenn Dowdy Roosevelt League's front man in the eye.
• 39:48
  The second man Lydell Mitchell.
• 39:50
  Jones and the Colts are down and set.
• 39:52
  Waiting for the take away.
• 39:54
  The gift to Lydell.
• 39:55
  The second man he stumbled and cut into a hole.
• 39:56
  Cuts across the 50 down to the stealer 47 yard line.
• 39:59
  Goes Lydell Mitchell before he is taken down by mean Joe Green.
• 40:03
  And also assisting big number 78 Dwight White.
• 40:05
  Now they ran that play to the weak side Donnie.
• 40:08
  Why was that effective where he was running to the strong side?
• 40:11
  I don't know but I'll tell you the blocking at the point of attack Vince was it.
• 40:15
  And they figured maybe they can do something.
• 40:17
  As I said before if we're going to do anything Mitchell's got to have a good day.
• 40:20
  He picked up six yards then.
• 40:22
  Dowdy wide left wide right car.
• 40:24
  Eye formation this time.
• 40:25
  Leaks the front man.
• 40:26
  Lydell the second man.
• 40:27
  Second and fourth the stealer 47.
• 40:29
  Jones fake gives to Lydell.
• 40:30
  Off the right side hit at the 45 and pulled down.
• 40:33
  The guy on the top of the pile was Jack Hamm.
• 40:35
  But I don't think he got the tackle credit.
• 40:37
  And on the bottom of the pile you got two or three of the stealers rolling up out of there.
• 40:41
  Number 63 in on the tackle Ernie Holmes.
• 40:45
  Gain of two third down and about two.
• 40:49
  Vince that's a little bit different than the third and five and six and so on.
• 40:53
  Let's see if Jones doesn't come out play action and throw that long one.
• 40:57
  Who's in there?
• 40:58
  Lydell is out.
• 40:59
  Macaulay is in along with Roosevelt leaks.
• 41:01
  Dowdy a wing on the right side double tight ends.
• 41:03
  Third down and two with the stealer 45.
• 41:06
  Waiting for the snap to Bert Jones.
• 41:08
  Still waiting.
• 41:09
  Still waiting.
• 41:10
  Turns gives to Macaulay.
• 41:11
  Macaulay dives over the right side and I don't know whether he's made it or not.
• 41:14
  It's a little bit too close to say.
• 41:16
  He may have come up a little short.
• 41:18
  We'll know when they untangle it more correctly and accurately when the official spots the football.
• 41:23
  Might be a little short.
• 41:25
  All right now what do you do here?
• 41:26
  Do you punt the ball and cut it?
• 41:27
  Put them in a hole they scored every time they had it.
• 41:29
  You got a half a yard to go on fourth.
• 41:33
  David Lee has been great getting a ball down there on the inside the 10 yard line.
• 41:38
  Right?
• 41:39
  Right.
• 41:40
  Well why not do the same thing?
• 41:41
  And I think Chuck.
• 41:42
  What's his name?
• 41:43
  Hasebo is smart doing this.
• 41:44
  It's fourth down and less than a yard.
• 41:47
  Downfield Theo Bell who came back 60 yards with a kick off a moment ago is waiting for
• 41:51
  the David Lee punt.
• 41:52
  Theo is all around the 10 yard line of the Steelers.
• 41:55
  Let's see whether David Lee intends to hang it up for there.
• 41:58
  He'll kick it to Bell whether he'll kick it out of bounds.
• 42:00
  After Stan White who's quarterback on the snap and they've got a 10 man rush have the
• 42:05
  Steelers.
• 42:06
  They are going to pressure hopeful of blocking.
• 42:08
  Morris Blue takes a last look still has a snap now snap.
• 42:11
  Snap is perfect.
• 42:12
  No pressure.
• 42:13
  They got to return.
• 42:14
  And David Lee angles toward the near sideline coming over Theo Bell.
• 42:16
  It's going to go out of bounds inside the 10.
• 42:19
  At the nine yard line David Lee has kicked it out of bounds.
• 42:22
  Oh we got a fight going on down here.
• 42:25
  Number 58 and 33.
• 42:27
  Go at him.
• 42:28
  That's Jack Lambert and Randy Hall.
• 42:30
  Well you'd trade those two wouldn't you?
• 42:32
  I got news for you.
• 42:33
  Yeah but if you're a Steeler you don't fight in front of the coach bench you're crazy.
• 42:37
  You do if you're Jack Lambert you fight anywhere.
• 42:40
  I got news for you.
• 42:42
  He'd give a good accounting of himself no matter whose bench he was fighting in front
• 42:45
  of.
• 42:46
  He is just a I think one of truly one of the very best most aggressive strong physical
• 42:51
  domineering middle linebackers I've ever seen.
• 42:53
  I think Tracy could have taken him on.
• 42:55
  Maybe I'll tell you there's a little feeling and a little emotion in this contest with
• 42:59
  10.57 remaining in the first half and the Steelers leading by a count of 16 to 7.
• 43:05
  Something against Pittsburgh at the nine yard line who cares.
• 43:12
  That is to say at their nine yard line who cares.
• 43:15
  Nah we will take the penalty.
• 43:17
  Here it is but darn it.
• 43:18
  Number 87 offense in motion.
• 43:21
  Now the tight end number 87 was in motion that's Larry Brown and the Colts have as already
• 43:25
  suggested declined the penalty at second and nine Steelers at their 10.
• 43:29
  Lewis and number 82 John Stallworth shuttled in and out with plays and now Lewis is in there
• 43:35
  going wide left and Lynn Swan is wide to the right.
• 43:37
  Cuqua and Franco Harris running backs behind the quarterback Bradshaw.
• 43:42
  Down is set.
• 43:43
  Take away Bradshaw wants to throw on second and nine.
• 43:45
  No pressure going for broke here comes the bomb.
• 43:47
  Franklin Lewis is there and he makes a.
• 43:50
  He tried to make the catch and just couldn't handle it this time right alongside him.
• 43:53
  It looked like it was number 20 or 25 Ray Oldham went up in the air.
• 43:57
  The ball slightly under throw.
• 43:59
  Well let me tell you something this guy's got a lot of a lot of pride in his offensive
• 44:04
  line because he's got all the time in the world to throw that ball and sooner or later
• 44:09
  he's going to come up with six more if they don't deck him a couple of times.
• 44:12
  So the coverage a lot better that time but as Chuck said to Dunnie the ball isn't thrown
• 44:16
  quite far enough.
• 44:17
  I think I'll lay all of that pretty good coverage behind him though.
• 44:20
  All of them might have gotten the ball had he thrown it for it.
• 44:22
  I don't know if it's made an effort to get his hands on.
• 44:25
  Let's see if we don't put this time.
• 44:27
  All right.
• 44:28
  Stallworth wide to the left side swan wide to the right of the backfield nobody behind
• 44:31
  quarterback Bradshaw Cuqua and Franco Harris down a set.
• 44:34
  Take away Bradshaw wants to throw a shallow drop to the goal line fire down the middle
• 44:37
  caught by swan and swan has tackled at the 20 yard line for what appears to be a stealer
• 44:42
  first down.
• 44:43
  Chayanski made the tackle but swan made a beautiful leaping grab for a first down of
• 44:48
  the 20 and extended the ball to get the first down as a great play by swan.
• 44:53
  Not only the catch but it was right on the front of money to his presence.
• 44:57
  He's building in there.
• 44:58
  Yep.
• 44:59
  And he takes a shot.
• 45:02
  It is first down Pittsburgh at the 20 yard line.
• 45:05
  The Steelers have scored every time they've had a football of the first half of the ball
• 45:08
  game today.
• 45:09
  Why to the right one.
• 45:10
  Why to the left is Lewis this time.
• 45:12
  Cuqua and Franco Harris with the running backs they're down and set.
• 45:16
  Take away the gift of Franco Harris stutter through a little bit of a hole and got stripped
• 45:19
  up coming through there.
• 45:20
  The cold defensive front forward just shut off the play down on the bottom of the pile
• 45:24
  Freddie Cook and you can look for Joe Airman he'll have to be down there somewhere.
• 45:28
  You really don't see a lot of the activity of Airman but he is normally right in the
• 45:32
  middle of anything that comes along that line.
• 45:34
  If Lewis had made the tackle it would have been a two yard loss.
• 45:37
  He's the guy to force the play and he forced Franco Harris to cut back into where the flow
• 45:41
  is going over.
• 45:42
  So you know you need help out there and he got it.
• 45:44
  It is a team game second down nine Steelers at their own 21 yard line.
• 45:48
  Swan wide right.
• 45:49
  Stallworth wide left again it's Cuqua and Harris.
• 45:52
  Rocky Blyer out with a foot injury.
• 45:54
  We don't know whether he'll be able to return it up.
• 45:56
  It's Franco Harris the carry bounces out around the left end into the daylight up to the 25
• 45:59
  and caught from behind crossing the 25 yard line by Jim Chayunski again the active middle
• 46:04
  line backer of the Baltimore Colts.
• 46:06
  But that Harris is really something to behold.
• 46:08
  Dutton was also around the ball.
• 46:10
  He fakes inside and then bounces outside in the manner of a scatback.
• 46:14
  Harris has got more angles in the geometry book the way he moves.
• 46:18
  Well the gain is good for four yards.
• 46:20
  It's third and five Steelers at their own 25.
• 46:23
  That's not a bad line by the Hall of Famer down the line there Vince.
• 46:26
  I like this all week on that.
• 46:28
  More angles in the geometry book.
• 46:30
  All right third down five Steelers is a 25 yard line.
• 46:33
  Lewis wide left Swan the other way back the throw goes Bratch on no pressure.
• 46:36
  That's time drills it to Franco Harris out in the flat.
• 46:38
  Franco one on one with Sam White down he goes at the 30 yard line.
• 46:41
  He may have a first down again.
• 46:43
  That's just pure second effort too believe me.
• 46:46
  And Stan did a good job you know making sure he made the tackle but Harris had the momentum to get the first down.
• 46:54
  We got to start doing something on defense believe me.
• 46:57
  We got to stop pushing.
• 46:58
  We got to change up our defenses around a little bit because you give this guy just kind of time to throw the ball.
• 47:03
  He's going to eat you up.
• 47:05
  I'll tell you what is either put some pressure on him or go get him a rocking chair.
• 47:09
  It is Steeler ball first down at the Steeler 30 and they lead at 16 to 7 of the Colts.
• 47:15
  Front four really have not been close to putting pressure on Bradshaw yet.
• 47:20
  It is stall with wide left side.
• 47:22
  Here's an inside handoff to Frank Fuqua off the right side he goes pulled down by the linebacker moving in quickly Jim Chayensky.
• 47:29
  Yeah really doing a pretty good job against the rush.
• 47:31
  They are that.
• 47:32
  They really are but as Donnie keeps saying we've got to get to the passer and this may be a passing down second and about a long seven.
• 47:42
  Frank Lewis comes in.
• 47:44
  Stallworth goes out Lewis and Stallworth shuttle plays in for quarterback Bradshaw.
• 47:49
  I think this was a request of the part of Terry.
• 47:51
  He just went to the coach and all they had a little bit of a meeting and he said look coach I think we can do a better job if you do it that way.
• 47:56
  And the Steelers have you know been happy to oblige.
• 47:58
  Indeed this defense were vulnerable. Here's a rollback by Bradshaw sets up the fire.
• 48:02
  Sideliner coming it is caught and downed at about the 47 yard line.
• 48:06
  Right in front of the Colts bench it's Lynn Swann on the receiving end covering him with Lloyd Mumford.
• 48:11
  First down Pittsburgh at their own 47 and for WSBA in York and all of our network stations we'll pause now for station identification.
• 48:19
  This is the Metro Media Baltimore Colts football network.
• 48:22
  With the best collegiate coverage follow the University of Maryland Terrapins on 68 WCBM Metro Media for Baltimore.
• 48:32
  At the 47.
• 48:36
  Stallworth wide left Swann wide right.
• 48:39
  Here's the turn give off to Pucla.
• 48:40
  Pucla comes into the. Harris comes into the middle breaks into the clear at the 40.
• 48:43
  Harris is in the foot race trying to beat Ray Oldham.
• 48:46
  Oldham slows him up and then came back with a second effort.
• 48:49
  Oldham stops him inside the five.
• 48:53
  47 yard first off by Franco Harris and Oldham slowed him up.
• 48:58
  He tried to put a move on Oldham and that gave Ray a chance to make a second move on Harris and he took him down.
• 49:04
  That was just a quick track up, trapped up the middle.
• 49:06
  Actually nobody even got a hand on Harris coming through the line.
• 49:10
  And this goes to show you know during the week these guys are saying what they were going to do and all that.
• 49:14
  Well they haven't done anything yet. Now last played at Bradshaw Court through the closest guy all day to him was Dutton.
• 49:21
  And he knew he'd get about three yards away from him.
• 49:23
  So they're going to start to buckle down and start playing football from the Steeler nine.
• 49:28
  They have now come to the Baltimore cold four first and goal Bradshaw gets off to a back Cunningham and he is going to be hit at the Harrison rather hit it about the three yard line for no game.
• 49:37
  The ball carry again Reggie Harrison number 46 who scored one of the Steeler touchdowns this afternoon and stopped at about the four yard line.
• 49:44
  Second and goal.
• 49:46
  Vince I think some of the fans down there with their radios on and their TVs down better make what if I make a noise.
• 49:53
  Well they better start doing something.
• 49:56
  You know it's straight. This is a rather conservative kind of a team Pittsburgh.
• 50:00
  Nothing fancy at all. But boy they just bring it down.
• 50:03
  Harrison and Pucall are the setbacks and they got Stallworth as a wing to the left side.
• 50:07
  Second down a goal from the cold three. The give goes to Harrison off the left side.
• 50:11
  He may have fumbled a football that's a big pile up for it at the two.
• 50:14
  We got it. Baltimore has got the ball.
• 50:23
  Dan White.
• 50:27
  There's a break in the action with the score. The Steelers 16 the cold seven.
• 50:32
  We'll pause now for this message.
• 50:34
  You want to start reading Paul.
• 50:36
  Hi I'm no radio announcer. I'm Paul McNabb at Donut Baker and the lottery's first millionaire.
• 50:42
  And I still play the lottery especially the new weekly super 50 cent game that has two chances to win the million dollar prize.
• 50:49
  That's one more chance than I had when 50 cents made me a millionaire.
• 50:54
  This is Paul McNabb who really knows you've got to play to win.
• 50:59
  You want to trade jobs.
• 51:03
  During this busy holiday season we at Household Finance would like to suggest that you take a few minutes to remember something.
• 51:11
  That this is the season of giving, of sharing, of making others happy.
• 51:16
  We wish you all the best of this season and please remember that we're here to help your family with its wants, its needs, its dreams all year round.
• 51:26
  Household Finance an equal opportunity lender.
• 51:34
  Well a little while ago as a matter of fact the last time the Steelers had the ball inside the cold five Vince was talking about the fact that the cold defensive unit had continually turned up with a big play this year and they needed to make it that time.
• 51:45
  Well that time they didn't make it. This time they did make the big play. Harrison fumbled.
• 51:50
  Stan White recovered. Baltimore has the ball at their own two and the Steelers had gone 89 yards and 10 plays only to fumble to the cold.
• 51:59
  Some of the Steelers coaches in a state of shock over on the other side of the field.
• 52:02
  I don't think Harrison ever had control of it. It looked like he was juggling it as he took the hand off and then of course when it's loose like that they punched at it and White got it.
• 52:11
  Well Baltimore ball first down at the Baltimore two yard line.
• 52:15
  And they come out into a standard pro set shoulder to shoulder. Roosevelt leaks and Lydell Mitchell car wide left down the other way.
• 52:21
  Jones looks over the Steeler defense. They fake a blitz. The turn the gift goes to the second. Mitchell breaks through. Up over the 10 to the 11 yard line goes Lydell.
• 52:29
  And Mr. Russell, Andy by name, made the tackle.
• 52:32
  What they did is they blew Jermeen Joe Green right out of there. They ran right at him. Got a good block on him and Mitchell picks up the first down. Almost the first down.
• 52:40
  It is second down and about a yard for Baltimore at their own 11 but a little breathing room now.
• 52:49
  Second down about a yard. Jones whips him out of the huddle. Again this time Dowdy and Carr go wide to the right side of the set.
• 52:58
  Tight end on the left end of the line for Baltimore.
• 53:00
  Waiting for the snap. The Jones turns. Gifts to Lydell. Lydell spins through a little bit of a hole and gets chopped off his pins after picking up the first down around the 14-13 yard line.
• 53:09
  It looks as though he's got enough for a first down. It is so indicated. Isn't that fancy?
• 53:15
  They took a longer time in the huddle than they seemed to and that play right there and that's a call a 25 hunch they always run.
• 53:23
  Just off the right side. Now why would they have taken longer?
• 53:26
  He was saying to Mitchell, hold on to that ball. I guess because you know it's dangerous down here.
• 53:31
  And also give me time to get out of the way.
• 53:35
  Carr watched left. Dowdy wide to the right. Standard process shoulder to shoulder. The backfield leaks and Lydell.
• 53:41
  Mitchell waiting for the snap to Jones. He fakes. Rolls back to throw. Back inside the five. Takes his time. Throws the bomb to Dowdy.
• 53:47
  It's over his head at the cold 45 yard line. Incomplete pass. Just a little too strong intended for Dowdy.
• 53:53
  Second and 10 Baltimore at their 13.
• 53:55
  You know in the drive that took them down the field for the score. I'm talking about the Colts. It was a lot of poise in that drive as they drove most of the length of the field.
• 54:02
  They threw to a lot of different people down they hadn't thrown to. But I think maybe this will keep us in it.
• 54:06
  The variety of receivers. Donnie, do you agree with that?
• 54:09
  Yeah and this also Jones had time to throw the ball there. It was good offensive pass detection.
• 54:14
  And actually Dowdy he had made a move and Jones had gotten the ball and they have another first down.
• 54:20
  This time Jones has a split backfield. Nobody directly behind the quarterback. Dowdy right side Carr left side.
• 54:25
  The takeaway the gib goes to Lydell. Hitting his own backfield.
• 54:28
  He really got belted in his own backfield and taken down at the line of scrimmage.
• 54:32
  And the man who ripped in there might have been mean Joe Green.
• 54:34
  It was. He made a heck of a play on that.
• 54:36
  He really did. Looks like he took Pratt and a few other people right with him as he went in.
• 54:41
  Now Don McCauley is coming into the Baltimore cold backfield.
• 54:44
  Roosevelt leaks has come out. Third down 10 Baltimore at their 13.
• 54:50
  Baltimore and the Steelers to determine which team has the right to play for the championship of the American Football Conference.
• 54:56
  And I'll tell you something there are two awfully good football teams going at it this afternoon.
• 55:00
  Car wide right wide left Dowdy. They're in a double wing actually.
• 55:04
  The only man behind the quarterback is Don McCauley. Jones looks over the stealer defense.
• 55:08
  They're a down four the takeaway by Jones. He thinks.
• 55:10
  Too much time.
• 55:11
  Whirls are blowing down there and we'll see what happens.
• 55:14
  It probably took too much time against Baltimore. That's exactly right.
• 55:19
  Thirty seconds clock ran out.
• 55:23
  You got to keep your eye on that clock all the time.
• 55:27
  I've been.
• 55:28
  Yeah baby. Now we have 15 yards to go on third. It's even tougher.
• 55:32
  Wonder how long it'll be before they have a gong that sounds when that clock runs out.
• 55:36
  You know.
• 55:37
  They can imagine having a helmet on and hearing that gong.
• 55:42
  Oh my.
• 55:43
  The referee walked the ball back inside the five.
• 55:50
  It's a five yard walk off the 13 to the eight.
• 55:53
  Well they know they're on television. You see they got to put a good show on.
• 55:56
  Pat Harriot had a good.
• 55:57
  Haggerty a very good official is laughing at himself.
• 56:00
  I didn't hear what he said. I'm sorry.
• 56:06
  A delay of game I presume.
• 56:08
  Oh.
• 56:10
  From the eight yard line.
• 56:11
  From the eight yard line to just third down at 15.
• 56:14
  Let's see if we don't put kicks.
• 56:16
  McCauley and Lydell are the running backs behind the quarterback Jones wide right car wide left dowdy.
• 56:22
  And Chester split a little bit on the left end of the line.
• 56:24
  Third at 15 Jones rolls to his left wants to throw has a little time ducks for a pressure and then gets nailed back at the two yard line.
• 56:31
  All over in big number 78.
• 56:34
  White white Russell was also there.
• 56:38
  And mean Joe Green set the you know kind of set the table and they finished it off.
• 56:44
  Jones is saying right now for God's sake somebody hit him.
• 56:47
  Do something.
• 56:48
  Now we got a real problem.
• 56:49
  Lee's gonna have to fight with his foot on the end line and they'll put 10 men up I guess.
• 56:54
  I would think so.
• 56:55
  The ball is spotted back at the two yard line and David Lee is putting it about the goal line.
• 57:00
  The snap here comes David Lee's punt.
• 57:02
  He hits a high booming spiral coming back on it as Lynn Swann at the cold 45.
• 57:07
  Laterally along it makes a cut over the 40 and down as a hit by the penalty.
• 57:10
  By the penalty by another penalty by go down we'll get 30 on the 35 of the 40 yard line.
• 57:15
  And number 56 of the Baltimore Colts at Seminini is madder than a wet hen.
• 57:19
  Whatever that is.
• 57:22
  But he was really upset.
• 57:24
  And apparently the reason he was so upset was because some of the penalty flags personal foul clipping against the feeler.
• 57:31
  We get 30 yards.
• 57:33
  Now you don't get 30 gets a choice.
• 57:36
  We'll take the one from back here around the 39 or 45 yard line and put Pittsburgh back in its own territory.
• 57:42
  If you get.
• 57:43
  Well there's a timeout with the score of the feeler 16 the Colts 7.
• 57:47
  When you shop for a 1977 full size car you may get a full size shock.
• 57:53
  Because some car makers are cutting down their full size cars making them narrower shorter lighter.
• 57:58
  They'll offer only the cut down size.
• 58:00
  But Ford has a better idea choice.
• 58:03
  A full size Ford LTD that kept its size and the all new trim size LTD 2.
• 58:09
  The quiet riding full size LTD offers what its major competition doesn't.
• 58:13
  More trunk space more hip and shoulder room and a longer wheelbase.
• 58:17
  If you prefer a trimmer size choose the new LTD 2.
• 58:21
  With LTD's kind of quality and comfort in a.
• 58:30
  For sportier car at a trimmer price some car makers will offer only cut down sizes in 77.
• 58:36
  But Ford offers a choice full size Ford LTD trim size LTD 2.
• 58:42
  Just drive one today.
• 58:50
  Local Ford Jeepers.
• 58:51
  The better idea guys.
• 58:56
  From the stealer 46 Bradshaw thrown a pass incomplete and a penalty flag dropped into play.
• 59:02
  Personal foul against the Baltimore Colts.
• 59:10
  Lloyd Mumford may have been the offender.
• 59:12
  We'll know when Pat Haggerty informs us after he walks off the real estate.
• 59:16
  Then we'll find out who the guilty party is.
• 59:18
  It was Mumford number 42 I'm almost sure.
• 59:21
  Well it wasn't against the guy hitting a passer because nobody's done that today.
• 59:25
  No no.
• 59:27
  He could have ate a sandwich then.
• 59:29
  Here's the announcement right now tune in.
• 59:31
  Personal foul defense first down.
• 59:35
  Personal foul defense first down.
• 59:37
  Who was it Haggerty?
• 59:41
  And Ted Marche-Abrilta a little upset with the officiating at the moment.
• 59:45
  As the Steelers have a first down now at the Baltimore Colts 39 yard line.
• 59:51
  And it is Franco Harris and Fuqua.
• 59:53
  Fuqua the ball carry off the right side.
• 59:55
  They snow in there and stop him around the 36 yard line with guys like Chyonsky up on the top of the pile.
• 1:00:00
  And down on the bottom of the pile the last guy getting up appears to be Fred Cook.
• 1:00:04
  And the gain is from the 39 to the 36 second and seven.
• 1:00:09
  He'll come right back with that long pass now Vince.
• 1:00:12
  Boy what time he's had.
• 1:00:14
  Unbelievable.
• 1:00:15
  The last one he could have ate a hero sandwich not just a plain sandwich.
• 1:00:20
  Second and seven for the Steelers the ball at the Colts 36.
• 1:00:23
  And there's a time odd being whistled for down on the field.
• 1:00:26
  Two minutes.
• 1:00:27
  We've come to the two minute warning.
• 1:00:29
  That's exactly what happens here in Baltimore.
• 1:00:31
  There's the two minute warning back in 60 seconds.
• 1:00:34
  One of these days you're from the Tri-Colts 45.
• 1:00:38
  And you'll be sorry for all the times you did.
• 1:00:48
  Sooner or later you're gonna drink the Colts 45.
• 1:00:52
  And you'll be sorry for all the times you waited.
• 1:00:59
  Sooner or later you're gonna want to change your place.
• 1:01:04
  And you'll be glad to know Colts 45 is waiting.
• 1:01:10
  Colts has been waiting about a thousand years now.
• 1:01:15
  And you'll be sorry for all the times you waited.
• 1:01:21
  Colts 45 malt liquor.
• 1:01:24
  A completely unique experience.
• 1:01:27
  Colts 45 malt liquor.
• 1:01:28
  Product of Carling National Breweries, Inc. Baltimore, Maryland.
• 1:01:38
  Well into the final two minutes of the first half.
• 1:01:41
  The Steelers leading by a count of 16 to 7.
• 1:01:43
  The Baltimore Colts have just not been able to dominate this steel curtain, the Steelers defense.
• 1:01:48
  They have been awesome at times.
• 1:01:50
  And offensively the Steelers front line, their offensive unit has been doing a simply magnificent job against the defensive unit of the Baltimore Colts.
• 1:01:58
  Bradshaw has just, he's not even got the uniform dirty yet.
• 1:02:02
  With a second and seven at the Baltimore 36.
• 1:02:04
  Gives the few, but sweeps to the left side. Rips down inside the 30 to the 28 yard line goes Frenchy.
• 1:02:09
  He's very close to another Steeler first down and we'll wait for the indication from the official.
• 1:02:14
  And they put that football down. It's right about at the 29 yard line.
• 1:02:18
  And it's so close that I believe the officials now take time to measure.
• 1:02:22
  Chyansky made the tackle. We'll see whether or not the sweep of the left side by Fuqua has picked up another Steeler first down.
• 1:02:28
  Huh?
• 1:02:29
  Vince Fuqua showing off in front of his Morgan State alumni.
• 1:02:33
  I was going to say. That's what happened.
• 1:02:34
  He's been in the league eight years. He used to hear a lot about him when he was a young player.
• 1:02:37
  But they mentioned Morgan a lot lately in relation to, he made the first down.
• 1:02:41
  Is he the guy that wears his shoes with fish in his heels?
• 1:02:43
  That's the guy.
• 1:02:44
  Huh?
• 1:02:45
  Yeah, he's one of the flashier addresses in the league.
• 1:02:47
  You never shot and fight him. You know where.
• 1:02:48
  I'll tell you, he's a heck of a guy, is Frenchy. He's really a dude.
• 1:02:51
  I've been with him a couple of times. A fun loving guy and a pretty good football player, is Frenchy.
• 1:02:57
  First down, Steeler at the Baltimore 29.
• 1:02:59
  Linds-Fawn wide to the right side and now at Stallworth wide to the left.
• 1:03:04
  Fuqua and Harris, the running backs are down and set.
• 1:03:07
  Take away, the give goes to Harris.
• 1:03:08
  Harris is hit by Fred Cook in his own backfield and stopped right at the 30 yard line.
• 1:03:12
  I think somebody forgot who they were blocking on that, Johnny.
• 1:03:15
  We just.
• 1:03:16
  In fact, Cook was in there so fast, he almost used the handoff.
• 1:03:18
  Yeah, I was going to say, the ball was a little loose. I wish somebody noticed it in there.
• 1:03:22
  Well, you talk about how good a job Fuqua's doing and he is.
• 1:03:24
  But how about Mr. Harris on the board with 14 carries and 93 yards in this, the first half.
• 1:03:30
  Lydell Mitchell has carried it 11 times for 35 yards.
• 1:03:34
  Lewis wide left, wide right, Swann. A standard pro set backfield, second and 11th Steelers.
• 1:03:39
  Bradshaw back to throw again, sets up, has time, lobs it all around it, Swann for the touchdown.
• 1:03:45
  Linds-Fawn put a move on Mumford, Mumford fell down and Swann went in without anybody near him.
• 1:03:51
  Touchdown Steelers who are just running over the cold for the first half.
• 1:03:55
  Chuck, you can say anything you want. It's sort of embarrassing for Mumford to have to cover a guy like that.
• 1:04:00
  But hell, you don't get it. The guy doesn't have to throw the ball real quick.
• 1:04:04
  He doesn't get any pressure at all put on him.
• 1:04:06
  Hey, a lot of defensive backs are going to get embarrassed.
• 1:04:11
  Well, it is now up to 22.
• 1:04:14
  And we'll see if Jarella can add the 23rd point. We're inside the two minute mark.
• 1:04:19
  And Bradshaw has just had absolutely letter perfect protection from his offensive line.
• 1:04:25
  The sack pack of the Colts haven't been able to do anything.
• 1:04:28
  Not a thing have they been able to do insofar as putting even a little bit of pressure on Bradshaw.
• 1:04:34
  Donnie, why would you figure they wouldn't have blitzed up to this point?
• 1:04:37
  You figure they'd pick up the blitzers and burn you even worse?
• 1:04:40
  Well, maybe, but I can't understand why they're doing this.
• 1:04:43
  They're going to have a four man rush. They're not getting any pressure from anywhere.
• 1:04:48
  Maybe a little bit, you see.
• 1:04:51
  He's coming from the blind side and Bradshaw doesn't see that to even bother him.
• 1:04:56
  Right, absolutely right. And of course, you've got to do something.
• 1:05:00
  Well, they walked off a penalty against the Steelers.
• 1:05:03
  And now the point after touchdown kick from the 15 is in the air.
• 1:05:06
  It looks pretty good. No penalty flags are down.
• 1:05:08
  And the score is on the board with about 53 seconds here on the first half remaining.
• 1:05:13
  The Steelers are handing it to the Colts.
• 1:05:15
  23-7, time out with the score, Pittsburgh 23, Baltimore 7.

• 1:05:30
  There's more than one way to use a Bank of America.
• 1:05:33
  Equitable wants you to understand how versatile it is.
• 1:05:37
  For instance, there are Bank of America companion checks.
• 1:05:41
  They look like personal checks. You can use them anywhere personal checks are taken,
• 1:05:46
  even at places that don't accept credit cards.
• 1:05:49
  And companion checks are one of the most private and convenient ways for you to borrow money.
• 1:05:54
  Only you and the bank know about it.
• 1:05:57
  You can make better banking choices when you understand your options.
• 1:06:01
  And we understand that at Equitable.
• 1:06:04
  There will be so many good ideas here at Equitable Trust Bank, Equitable Trust Bank,
• 1:06:13
  where good ideas just keep on happening.
• 1:06:18
  Number FDIC.
• 1:06:21
  Well, Roy Jarrella, who is supposed to kick off for the Steelers,
• 1:06:25
  apparently is bonded by that groin injury that we mentioned a little earlier.
• 1:06:29
  And it looks as though he'll not kick off.
• 1:06:31
  Manfield is out there to kick off. Ray Manfield, offensive center, a 12-year veteran from Washington.
• 1:06:38
  How about that? How about that?
• 1:06:40
  Jarrella can hit those chip shots if that 45-yarder was a chip shot, a field goal he made.
• 1:06:46
  But they talked about he was the one fellow who they were concerned about physically,
• 1:06:49
  and he can't kick off deep. His kickoffs haven't been good at all.
• 1:06:53
  Now Manfield and Howard Stevens is playing him up at the 14-yard line,
• 1:06:57
  but he won't be too sharp in his first shot at it.
• 1:07:01
  Look at that. 56 is going to kick it off. Not Manfield.
• 1:07:04
  Oh, yeah, that's Manfield.
• 1:07:05
  That's Manfield.
• 1:07:06
  56? Yes, sir.
• 1:07:07
  Manfield is lined up behind the football, all ready to go,
• 1:07:11
  and he's a straightaway orthodox type of a kicker.
• 1:07:13
  He missed it, shanked it.
• 1:07:15
  Better get it.
• 1:07:16
  Ron Lee takes it out of bounds at about the 34-yard line of the Baltimore Colts.
• 1:07:21
  We're getting outstanding field position, but we're not doing anything.
• 1:07:25
  The Steelers took only a minute and 45 seconds to go 59 yards in four plays.
• 1:07:30
  They have scored three, let's make it four of the five times they've handled a football today.
• 1:07:35
  The Steelers have scored either by touchdown or field goal.
• 1:07:37
  And the fifth time they dropped the ball on the one foot line.
• 1:07:40
  Oh, that's exactly right.
• 1:07:43
  All ready to go at the 35-yard line.
• 1:07:45
  The Colts are in possession, and they have just been manhandled by the Steelers.
• 1:07:48
  The Steelers, right to this moment in the football game,
• 1:07:51
  have been too much football team for the Colts to handle.
• 1:07:54
  They've been just that good.
• 1:07:55
  Back to throw, Jones.
• 1:07:56
  Drills it down the middle.
• 1:07:57
  Over the head, intercepted by number 27, Glen Edwards of the Steelers.
• 1:08:01
  Down to the Colts, 35, and out of bounds goes Edwards.
• 1:08:04
  They've got enough time to get another one.
• 1:08:06
  43 seconds, that's plenty of time for them.
• 1:08:08
  This ball overthrown Dowdy right into the hands of Glen Edwards.
• 1:08:12
  What do they say, Vince?
• 1:08:13
  When you're good, you're real good.
• 1:08:15
  When you're bad, you're really bad.
• 1:08:18
  Well, I'll tell you, there is many doubt.
• 1:08:20
  You wonder when you look at this first half of the football game, Arthur,
• 1:08:22
  you wonder how the Colts got into the playoff game.
• 1:08:25
  Well, I don't know, but it hasn't been their day.
• 1:08:29
  Of course, I don't think they've played good in the last four out of five games.
• 1:08:32
  That's my own opinion.
• 1:08:33
  And now they're playing against the real good football team,
• 1:08:36
  and they're maybe not that good.
• 1:08:37
  That's the point I was trying to make.
• 1:08:38
  The Steelers are just that good that they make anybody look bad.
• 1:08:41
  Back to throw goes Bradshaw.
• 1:08:42
  He sets up.
• 1:08:43
  Penalty flag is dropped.
• 1:08:44
  A little bit of pressure thrown to Lynn Swann in the clear at the 30.
• 1:08:47
  Swann to the 25, outside to the 20, and out of bounds at about the 19 goes Swann.
• 1:08:51
  That's going to be our best defense is the flag.
• 1:08:54
  Oh, the penalty flag is going against Pittsburgh holding.
• 1:08:58
  It has been, really.
• 1:08:59
  We said that facetiously early in the game,
• 1:09:01
  but the only time we've been able to stop them or move ourselves is because of penalty.
• 1:09:07
  Vince, sometimes it's better to be lucky than good, right?
• 1:09:10
  Oh, yeah, I'll tell you, I wish we got lucky and picked one off and get within, you know, eight, nine.
• 1:09:16
  Usually, the only way you get a chance to pick one off, here's Haggerty.
• 1:09:21
  Holding, number 50, offense.
• 1:09:24
  First down, Jim Clack, guilty of holding, I believe he said.
• 1:09:30
  He said the only way you get lucky is by putting pressure on the passer.
• 1:09:33
  Just howling feather him tonight back there, getting caught holding.
• 1:09:38
  So now it's the Steeler ball at the Baltimore Colt 44-yard line on that holding penalty.
• 1:09:45
  Down and 20.
• 1:09:46
  Bradshaw in under center, the time remaining about 38 seconds.
• 1:09:49
  Takeaway by Bradshaw, deep drop, wants a throw, and he runs up into the pocket and into the arms of Joe Airman,
• 1:09:54
  who made the tackle, and Bradshaw comes up calling for time.
• 1:09:59
  They made the tackle back around the Steeler, 48-yard line, and Bradshaw calls time to save 28 seconds that's on the clock.
• 1:10:08
  And the only way Freddie Cook had some outside pressure,
• 1:10:11
  Bradshaw ran up and ran right into Joe Airman.
• 1:10:15
  That's the only time Bradshaw's been forced out of the pocket at all, and I think it was his own decision.
• 1:10:20
  He didn't like the receiver's positions down here.
• 1:10:23
  He ran up to take another look, and then they got him.
• 1:10:25
  And that's the first time he has seen how dusty the field can be.
• 1:10:28
  And he was singing, Ma, Ma, Ma, don't allow no music playing.
• 1:10:32
  He sees the commercials, don't he?
• 1:10:34
  Oh, yeah.
• 1:10:36
  Well, in the first half of the football game, it's just been, you know, completely the Steelers.
• 1:10:40
  The Baltimore Colts mounted one drive, but the Steelers, every time but one,
• 1:10:44
  that they have had the football in the first half have gone into score,
• 1:10:47
  and Baltimore has been powerless to prevent it.
• 1:10:49
  They have just not been able to, in the first half of the game, do anything about stopping the Steelers.
• 1:10:54
  And 23 points on the board for Pittsburgh means that the second half of the football game
• 1:10:58
  is going to be some kind of an uphill battle for the Baltimore Colts.
• 1:11:02
  Yeah, coming back against the best defense in the league, playing catch-up.
• 1:11:05
  Boy, that's a real tough road.
• 1:11:07
  Hey, Vince, they told me that this guy, Bradshaw, recorded a song, I'm So Lonely I Could Die.
• 1:11:12
  Well, he's been pretty lonely out there today.
• 1:11:16
  No blue shirts around him, for sure, none of it.
• 1:11:19
  I hate those singers.
• 1:11:21
  Second down and 28 for the Steelers at their own 48.
• 1:11:24
  And they've got Lewis and Swann, Sedwyde to the right, and Stallworth, Wyde to left.
• 1:11:28
  Bradshaw on the handoff to Franco Harris on the draw.
• 1:11:31
  Harris is in the open down of the 40-yard line in the clear,
• 1:11:34
  and Darrell Lewis tries to get to him, and Lewis makes the tackle
• 1:11:37
  and rolls him out of bounds with the 22-yard line with 17 seconds on the clock.
• 1:11:42
  Just seems the Steelers are able to do it any way they want to.
• 1:11:44
  They can run at you or throw at you and be effective.
• 1:11:47
  Vince, that was a great call now.
• 1:11:49
  Wasn't that a super call?
• 1:11:50
  That was.
• 1:11:51
  I think Chuck Knowles had a call that one.
• 1:11:54
  That was just a fantastic call.
• 1:11:56
  Who figures he's going to draw play?
• 1:11:59
  Well, he had another timeout left.
• 1:12:00
  Well, I don't know why they got out of bounds to stop the clock, but still they've taken a timeout.
• 1:12:05
  A charge timeout. Why would they do that?
• 1:12:07
  No, the poor men have gone out of bounds, Vince.
• 1:12:09
  Well, they've only got about 17 seconds remaining on the clock,
• 1:12:12
  and they still have another timeout that belongs to them.
• 1:12:14
  One more timeout left.
• 1:12:16
  I mean, let's tell you, they score now.
• 1:12:18
  The culture's totally demoralized and have had it.
• 1:12:21
  We'd better have Tracy Dunovan and fans at half time.
• 1:12:24
  Well, there used to be a time when you could say you win some, you lose some, and some are rained out,
• 1:12:33
  but this is a different game.
• 1:12:34
  I've got an expression for that, but I can't say it on the air.
• 1:12:38
  That's some...
• 1:12:39
  It starts with that's a...
• 1:12:41
  Well, at the 22-yard line, the Steelers are in possession.
• 1:12:47
  Baltimore just has not been able to get going.
• 1:12:49
  They have not been able to defensively do the things that they hoped that they would be able to do,
• 1:12:53
  nor have they been able to really do the things offensively.
• 1:12:56
  The Steelers have just dominated the game.
• 1:12:57
  Bradshaw back to throw, sets up, looks for some help, fires out of the flat to Harris.
• 1:13:02
  Harris to the 15-yard line on his feet at the 10, and inside the 10 to the 8-yard line goes Franco Harris.
• 1:13:07
  Mumford made the finishing tackle, and the clock rolls down to seven seconds, and the Steelers stop it once again.
• 1:13:13
  Well, they'll at least kick a field goal if they don't want to go for it here now.
• 1:13:16
  They could actually get another pass off before they run out of time.
• 1:13:19
  Right, right, and then kick a field goal.
• 1:13:22
  They're coming in now with Jarella, so he doesn't throw it.
• 1:13:27
  Let's hope he kicks it around.
• 1:13:29
  Stumps his toe.
• 1:13:31
  Down to the seven-yard line, and it is a first and goal for the Steelers at that spot,
• 1:13:35
  and Jarella will try to add another point to run it up to 26.
• 1:13:39
  Vince, go down and put that jinx on him.
• 1:13:41
  Oh, man.
• 1:13:43
  I mean...
• 1:13:45
  Holder will be body-walled in the putter, and Jarella will kick it from about the 15,
• 1:13:50
  and that's a 25-yard field goal.
• 1:13:56
  And Memorial Stadium, jam-packed against the Steelers this afternoon,
• 1:13:59
  is a very, very quiet place as we approach half-time.
• 1:14:03
  They better start hollering in that end zone there, do something.
• 1:14:07
  I think there is odd and maybe shocked as the cold football team.
• 1:14:11
  The kick is in the air, on the way, looks OK. Is it all right?
• 1:14:14
  Yes, sir, it's fine.
• 1:14:16
  Jarella has kicked a 25-yard field goal to add three more, and now it's the Steelers,
• 1:14:22
  26, and the Baltimore Colts, seven.
• 1:14:26
  As we go to the final, four seconds of play here in the first half.
• 1:14:31
  And Memorial Stadium, a very quiet place, and well it might be.
• 1:14:35
  The Colts are, well, not necessarily shocked, but they certainly look as though
• 1:14:39
  they've been stunned, to say the least.
• 1:14:42
  They have mounted one drive that has enabled them to score,
• 1:14:45
  a very good catch on the part of Roger Carr.
• 1:14:47
  Other than that, the defensive unit of the Steelers have shut the Colts down cold,
• 1:14:51
  and the offensive unit of the Steelers have been able to do what they wanted.
• 1:14:54
  Hey, Vince, one shot, we've got seven seconds left. How much time we got left?
• 1:14:58
  Four.
• 1:15:00
  This guy kicks an onside kick, all right?
• 1:15:02
  Yeah.
• 1:15:03
  We touch him.
• 1:15:04
  No, he won't.
• 1:15:05
  Call a timeout, and Burnshore won't miss.
• 1:15:07
  Well, this is man's good. He practices on just hitting the ball. He's not going to be fancy.
• 1:15:11
  While he missed it again, Ron Lee knocks it down and falls on in the 36-yard line.
• 1:15:16
  And that'll be it for the half. That should wipe it out,
• 1:15:19
  unless somebody was able to call time to save as much of the clock as there is,
• 1:15:24
  which might be one second, and apparently they did.
• 1:15:27
  There's one second on the board, so the Colts will have a chance for one play from their own 36.
• 1:15:36
  All right, here's it goes in one fifth.
• 1:15:38
  Well, I'll tell you, we came in here figuring we had a good shot,
• 1:15:41
  and they are handling us twice as effectively as last year.
• 1:15:45
  Yeah, so far, Vince, you're right.
• 1:15:47
  Right.
• 1:15:48
  Well, that's, you know, their two halves through every football game,
• 1:15:50
  and sometimes even a little bit more.
• 1:15:52
  One of the points that, well, let's watch the final play of the first half.
• 1:15:56
  Jones is going to put it up, and I imagine maybe Carr might be the fellow,
• 1:15:59
  unless it's Chester who is put way out here to the left.
• 1:16:01
  Jones drops back, everybody deep, and Chester is, Jones just puts it up for grabs.
• 1:16:05
  Roger Carr takes a look at it, and he couldn't make the catch inside the 10-yard line of the Steelers.
• 1:16:10
  The first half is over.
• 1:16:11
  Glenn Edwards broke up the play.
• 1:16:12
  That was close.
• 1:16:13
  And that is the end of the first half with the Steelers leading 26 to 7.
• 1:16:18
  We'll have more in one minute.
• 1:16:20
  You've got a heck of an afternoon's work cut out for you.
• 1:16:23
  Chuck, and half-time they told me that Jarrell doesn't have a bad leg.
• 1:16:26
  There's another part of his anatomy that is hurting.
• 1:16:29
  The groin, yes.
• 1:16:30
  Yes.
• 1:16:31
  He's got a groin and groin right now, and it really is giving him some problems,
• 1:16:35
  and that's the reason Mansfield has been there kicking off.
• 1:16:37
  Jarrell will try the second half kickoff, however.
• 1:16:39
  Stevens is waiting inside the 10-yard line between the 10 and the 5.
• 1:16:43
  Jarrell hits it.
• 1:16:44
  He's got this pretty good.
• 1:16:45
  Howard Stevens takes the 10-job, bobbled the ball, recovers to the 20.
• 1:16:48
  Outside, 25, 30, up to the 35, and ducks straight ahead to about the 38-yard line.
• 1:16:54
  Howard Stevens returns to about the 38.
• 1:16:57
  Donnie Shell stops him, and the offensive unit of the Colts take the field,
• 1:17:01
  with the Steelers leading by a score of 26 to 7.
• 1:17:04
  Here comes the second half.
• 1:17:07
  That's a pretty good return.
• 1:17:08
  Nothing up the middle, and he didn't try to knock over anybody,
• 1:17:11
  and he got it outside, got 10 yards more than he might have figured.
• 1:17:15
  Now, the same offensive unit is on field for the Baltimore Colts.
• 1:17:18
  Down he is wide right, car wide left.
• 1:17:20
  Lydell Mitchell and Roosevelt leaks to the running backs.
• 1:17:22
  Jones looking to steal a defense, gives the Lydell to the right side.
• 1:17:26
  He knocks into a little bit of a hole and manages to punch out two quick yards
• 1:17:29
  to about the 40-yard line before he is taken down by Jack Hamm.
• 1:17:36
  He's about the ball just about at the 40-yard line.
• 1:17:38
  We're at a second down and eight Baltimore at that spot.
• 1:17:43
  Defensively, you've got LC Greenwood, Dwight White, Holmes, and Mean Joe Green.
• 1:17:49
  They have that front four.
• 1:17:50
  They've got Hamm and Lambert and Russell as linebackers on the corners.
• 1:17:56
  Hold on a minute as the Colts come into a split backfield, second and eight at the 40.
• 1:18:00
  Down he is wide right, car wide left.
• 1:18:02
  Jones wants to throw a deep drop back to his 30.
• 1:18:04
  Drills his pass incomplete.
• 1:18:06
  It's sailed away from Lydell Mitchell.
• 1:18:07
  It'll be third down and eight Baltimore at the 40-yard line.
• 1:18:12
  And that stealer defensive unit that we're talking about on the corners on the one corner,
• 1:18:16
  you've got JT Thomas on the other corner.
• 1:18:18
  You've got Mel Blonde and the safety men are Mike Wagner and Glenn Edwards.
• 1:18:22
  Jones was five for ten first half at two intercepted.
• 1:18:26
  Now he faces a certain passing situation, third and eight at the 40.
• 1:18:31
  And they drop Lambert out as a middle linebacker and they add a new defensive back,
• 1:18:35
  my name is Jimmy Allen.
• 1:18:36
  So they've got five defensive backs, not a third down at eight at the 40.
• 1:18:39
  Jones looks over the defensive alignment, yanks it away.
• 1:18:42
  No fake, wants to throw.
• 1:18:43
  Jones is lobbing it upfield and it's going to be overthrown and intended for Don McCauley.
• 1:18:47
  Covering McCauley was a very good linebacker named Jack Hamm.
• 1:18:51
  Now McCaul's first offensive thrust in the second half dies very quickly
• 1:18:55
  and the stealers force the punt.
• 1:18:57
  So you see the advantage, the ability of a linebacker to cover the back coming out of the back.
• 1:19:02
  McCauley runs good patterns, does a good job on third down.
• 1:19:05
  Hamm was with him all the way and burnt out over throwing.
• 1:19:08
  A putting situation and downfield Lynn Swan is going to return the punt.
• 1:19:13
  He's standing at about the stealer 30.
• 1:19:14
  Now he backpedals a little bit.
• 1:19:16
  David Lee will kick it from about the Baltimore cold 32.
• 1:19:19
  Stand wide looking over the defensive alignment of the stealers as their punt return team is on.
• 1:19:25
  They've got an eight-man rush, have the stealers.
• 1:19:27
  We wait for Forrest Blue's snap.
• 1:19:29
  A snap is good.
• 1:19:30
  Here comes the punt.
• 1:19:31
  He almost had it blocked.
• 1:19:32
  A good punt by David Lee.
• 1:19:33
  Swan takes it at the stealer 23.
• 1:19:35
  It goes outside to the far sideline up to the 30.
• 1:19:38
  It rolled out a bounce over on the far side of the field.
• 1:19:41
  It looks like it might have been Dan Dickel who ran him out at about the 30-yard line
• 1:19:45
  somewhere in that vicinity.
• 1:19:46
  The stealers go to work for the first time in the second half.
• 1:19:53
  The fellow who almost blocked the punt for the stealers was Jim Allen, a defensive back.
• 1:19:58
  David Lee still got it away.
• 1:19:59
  It's first down for the stealers.
• 1:20:01
  The ball resting at their own 30.
• 1:20:04
  And Bradshaw brings him out on the football.
• 1:20:06
  Lewis coming out wide to the right side.
• 1:20:08
  That means Swan is the other way.
• 1:20:09
  They've got Frenchie Fuqua and Franco Harris is running backs.
• 1:20:13
  Waiting for the takeaway by Bradshaw.
• 1:20:15
  Gives it to Franco Harris.
• 1:20:16
  He's off the right side.
• 1:20:17
  Bursts through up over the 35 to the 36-yard line.
• 1:20:20
  And I think Arthur Donovan, that may set the trend of things for the stealers in the second half.
• 1:20:24
  Actually, what that was, Chuck, that was just a delayed buck.
• 1:20:27
  And Harris takes it to his left and comes back, gets the hand off, and goes right up to his right.
• 1:20:32
  They're just blocking in there.
• 1:20:33
  They got the hole, opens up, and he's just running up there.
• 1:20:37
  Well, they got about a second down and maybe three, a little bit longer than three for the stealers,
• 1:20:41
  near the stealer 37.
• 1:20:43
  This time, Stallworth is wide left.
• 1:20:45
  Wide right is Lynn Swan.
• 1:20:46
  Split in the backfield.
• 1:20:47
  Nobody behind the quarterback, Bradshaw.
• 1:20:49
  Waiting for the snap to the quarterback.
• 1:20:51
  Pitches it out to Franco Harris.
• 1:20:52
  Sweeps the right side and gets, got through two tacklers.
• 1:20:55
  And then it's going to be rolled down around the stealer 43- or four-yard line.
• 1:20:59
  John Dutton finally caught up to him.
• 1:21:01
  Yeah, I'll tell you about Mr. Harris.
• 1:21:02
  You don't give him any moves to make him fall down.
• 1:21:05
  You better pop him.
• 1:21:06
  Bruce Ladis, the guy that really misses him first.
• 1:21:08
  He comes up.
• 1:21:09
  He's in good, and now he gets blocked.
• 1:21:10
  There's a miss by Mumford.
• 1:21:13
  Oh, Mumford on Harris.
• 1:21:15
  I mean, that's like me trying to knock you down, Donovan.
• 1:21:17
  I think you could do it, Ben.
• 1:21:19
  Oh, give me blinds-eye and a plank.
• 1:21:24
  It is the first down, Steelers, of the stealer 43.
• 1:21:28
  Again, they split the backfield.
• 1:21:29
  Do the Steelers with Fuqua and Harris.
• 1:21:31
  The turn, the gift of Fuqua.
• 1:21:32
  Sweep on the left side.
• 1:21:33
  He gets a block.
• 1:21:34
  Piles over the 45- to the 47-yard line.
• 1:21:36
  Maybe beyond that before he is finally hit and taken down by Jim Chayonsky, who has made his fair share of tackles this afternoon.
• 1:21:42
  There, spotting the football at the stealer 46-yard line.
• 1:21:45
  Again, it's some three-second down and seven.
• 1:21:49
  The Steelers lead it by a score of 26 to 7.
• 1:21:52
  They have just blown the Colts right out of the ballpark in the first half.
• 1:21:57
  And this time, they send Stallworth and Lynn Swann wide to the right side of the set.
• 1:22:02
  Swann is split and a slot to the right is Stallworth.
• 1:22:06
  Second down, seven.
• 1:22:07
  Back to throw, Bradshaw sets up, fires his pass.
• 1:22:09
  Caught and taken down at the Baltimore 45-yard line is Stallworth.
• 1:22:13
  Mumford made the tackle.
• 1:22:16
  And it is a first down for the Steelers at the Baltimore 45.
• 1:22:19
  He threw it in, Vince, among a lot of people there.
• 1:22:27
  First down, Steelers.
• 1:22:28
  The drive started for them on their own 31-yard line is now the Baltimore Colts 45-yard line.
• 1:22:36
  Against Swann, wide to the right side.
• 1:22:38
  This time, Frank Lewis is wide to the left.
• 1:22:40
  Again, it's Fuqua and Frank O'Harris, his running backs.
• 1:22:43
  Waiting for the takeaway.
• 1:22:44
  Here's a fake handoff by Bradshaw.
• 1:22:46
  Rolls to set up, firing the bomb.
• 1:22:47
  He just puts it up for grabs.
• 1:22:48
  Lewis is running to it.
• 1:22:50
  And he can't get to the football.
• 1:22:52
  And Ray Oldham is complaining of offensive pass interference.
• 1:22:55
  We got a flag here now.
• 1:22:58
  Just back in the area where he threw the ball.
• 1:22:59
  And did they hit him?
• 1:23:00
  I don't think they hit him.
• 1:23:01
  Well, they say interference, illegal use of the hands against the Steelers.
• 1:23:06
  That's a preliminary sign.
• 1:23:09
  Maybe you got one too many head taps in there.
• 1:23:12
  I think we got, at least we got one thing going for us in the penalties.
• 1:23:16
  But not much else.
• 1:23:20
  Now, taking a look at the penalties, the Steelers were penalized four times in the first half.
• 1:23:24
  They called three times.
• 1:23:26
  And here's a big walk off.
• 1:23:27
  Listen to referee Pat Haggerty.
• 1:23:29
  Illegal use of the hands, number 15, pumping.
• 1:23:33
  Illegal use of the hands, takes the ball from the cold 45 back to the Steeler 45.
• 1:23:39
  They got Jim Clack again.
• 1:23:41
  Yes, they did.
• 1:23:45
  They say, Vince, if you miss a guy, you still try to grab him and take a chance of getting called.
• 1:23:50
  Swan, wide right, Stallworth wide left, split in the backfield on a first down and 20.
• 1:23:54
  Back to throw goes Bradshaw, kind of a shallow drop, lobs it upfield to Franco Harris.
• 1:23:58
  Harris is hit by two of the Colts and taken down at the 49-yard line.
• 1:24:05
  At the 49-yard line, Bruce Laird was there to help in the tackle, along with Darrell Luce.
• 1:24:12
  So a gain of four makes it second down and 16 now for the Steelers.
• 1:24:18
  They've got to go to the Baltimore Colts, 35 for a first down.
• 1:24:23
  He'll have to come right back with his draw play again, Chuck.
• 1:24:26
  I'd be watching for him as Jarunski.
• 1:24:28
  Well, we've got a slot right in Lewis and a split to the right in Lynn Swan and a flank left on the part of the Stallworth.
• 1:24:34
  Back to throw on the draw comes Harris and Mike Barnes stood him up.
• 1:24:37
  Dutton misses him and then got him a second time and held him at the 46-yard line.
• 1:24:42
  Dutton got to try to take him up around the head and got rolled off him.
• 1:24:45
  And Dutton went down and grabbed him low and made the tackle.
• 1:24:48
  And Franco Harris, I'm sorry to say, is slow getting up.
• 1:24:53
  Franco was shaking a little bit on the previous play, Chuck.
• 1:24:56
  He limped back to the huddle just slightly.
• 1:24:58
  The draw and Dutton hit him head up.
• 1:25:01
  He bounced and he grabbed him again and Franco is conscious, but he is being a, I think, these aromatic spirits of ammonia,
• 1:25:12
  whatever they have in those little cartridges, is being applied to get him clearheaded again.
• 1:25:16
  A little shot of, a little bit of eggnog or something to wake you up real quick.
• 1:25:21
  Help to the sideline. He is out of the ballgame. I hope we'll see him again.
• 1:25:25
  Reggie Harrison takes his place as a running back. So it's Harrison and Fuqua.
• 1:25:29
  The Steelers now show the Colts a double wing. The Colts almost jump off and get back.
• 1:25:32
  Bradshaw back to throw third.
• 1:25:34
  Pressure coming. Bradshaw runs now throws in complete upfield.
• 1:25:38
  And it is going to be fourth down and 19 and the Colts have stopped the Steelers for the first time today.
• 1:25:46
  It's for the fumble. It's the first time they've stopped them.
• 1:25:49
  That's right.
• 1:25:51
  Well, it is the first time they've put any pressure on Bradshaw, too.
• 1:25:56
  It's close to showing you they're only human also.
• 1:26:01
  All ready to go. We'll have a punt. Walden is on field to do the putting for the Steelers.
• 1:26:05
  Down around the 10 yard line waiting is Howard Stevens.
• 1:26:09
  Baltimore with a 10 man rush. The only man downtown is Stevens.
• 1:26:13
  The snap. Here comes the pressure. He got it away. End over end.
• 1:26:16
  Stevens takes it to Baltimore 20 straight ahead 25, 30 and Trappman pulled off his pins at about the 32 yard line.
• 1:26:22
  Linebacker toes got there. And Mike Webster also in on the tackle.
• 1:26:27
  Baltimore takes over. The WBOC and Salisbury Maryland and all of our network stations
• 1:26:31
  are down for station identification. This is the Metro Media Baltimore Colts football network.
• 1:26:37
  This is Tom Davis. Join me mornings and afternoons for complete sports on WCBM Metro Media Baltimore.
• 1:26:43
  WCBM Colts Radio.
• 1:26:48
  A split backfield behind Jones. First down of the Baltimore 31.
• 1:26:54
  Take away by Byrd. No fake. Wants to throw. Sets up. Takes his time. Throws down the gut.
• 1:26:58
  Chester's got it. At the Steeler 45.
• 1:27:02
  Right down the middle of the Raymond Chester. First down Baltimore inside the Steeler 45.
• 1:27:07
  That's good pass detection here. He had time to throw the ball.
• 1:27:11
  And they figure you know behind as much as it costs are they got to be going deep.
• 1:27:15
  They got to open up. Double covering those wide guys and Raymond is open in the middle.
• 1:27:20
  They got to get one now. Proud is with them. Listen.
• 1:27:25
  The big wheels got him going up there in the upper deck. All with the spoke.
• 1:27:29
  Car wide to the left. Downy wide to the right. Split on the backfield. Nobody behind Jones.
• 1:27:34
  First down Steeler 45. Red down and set. Waiting now for the takeaway. Jones may be autobilizing.
• 1:27:39
  A long count. Turns and gets it to Lydell. Lydell skirts through the middle.
• 1:27:43
  Finds a hole and fights inside the 40 to the Steeler 37 yard line.
• 1:27:47
  And Jack Ham stood him up there and Lydell Mitchell found daylight where there didn't appear to be any daylight.
• 1:27:52
  And Randall the Steeler 37.
• 1:27:56
  Second down and to Jack Ham and Lydell used to be teammates for Joe Paterno.
• 1:28:02
  But after the half. They're coming to life a little bit.
• 1:28:06
  The crowd's coming to life. So this helps. Come on.
• 1:28:10
  Franco Harris out with bruised ribs. Cars wide left. Wide right.
• 1:28:13
  Downy a standard throw set backfield. Lydell and Roosevelt shoulder to shoulder.
• 1:28:17
  Second and two with the Steeler 37. Penalty flag down. The ball goes to Leakes. He went straight ahead for first down yardage.
• 1:28:23
  It's nullified on an illegal motion penalty against the Colts. Leakes was two inches to get the ball.
• 1:28:28
  So instead of second and two, it'll be second and seven.
• 1:28:32
  The ball will be moved back to the 42.
• 1:28:40
  That really does hurt. A very uncomfortable mistake.
• 1:28:44
  I haven't seen many games played without it.
• 1:28:47
  You know, even last week when we were beating the Puppets.
• 1:28:52
  He got balls about three or four different times. And that really is concentration.
• 1:28:59
  Leakes is out of the ball. Game Don McCauley goes in at second down seven at the Steelers 42.
• 1:29:07
  McCauley and Lydell with the setbacks. Downy wide right. Car wide left. Chester on the right end of the line.
• 1:29:12
  Take away by Jones. A shallow drop. A quick pass to Lydell. Lydell is hit by one of those real good Steeler linebackers by the name of Jack Lambert.
• 1:29:19
  And took him down at the 41 yard line.
• 1:29:25
  So the pass to Lydell picked up a yard and it's third down and six.
• 1:29:29
  I'll tell you, as I said before and as I had to advertise, the Steelers got their defensive linebackers. They really do move around.
• 1:29:36
  Oh man, you just can't run with them. I mean, the backs coming out of the backfield are really nullified. Neutralized.
• 1:29:42
  They are really excellent, particularly Lambert. He is one of the. He's just one of the easy.
• 1:29:46
  He's in the mold of the old guys like Dick Bunkus and Joe Schmidt. He's bigger, stronger and faster.
• 1:29:52
  All right. A takeaway by Jones. Third and six. Back to throw. Has a little time.
• 1:29:56
  Takes now runs into pressure and is going to be pulled down in his own backfield. Fighting for yardage. He's down at the 45.
• 1:30:03
  We got a flag and a penalty flag has been dropped.
• 1:30:10
  Jones was thrown in the cold 47 yard line. They spot the ball at the 45.
• 1:30:14
  Now bring it to the 47 and the penalty flag has been dropped.
• 1:30:17
  When the field judge came up to holding against the Steelers preliminary.
• 1:30:21
  Field judges come up to make the call, report to the officials. So this will be a first down, I think, for the Colts.
• 1:30:28
  Well, we got the brakes going our way now.
• 1:30:33
  They take it to the 41 and now they will walk it off from there.
• 1:30:38
  It'll go down to about the 31 of the Steelers. They bring the ball down to the 36 yard line and it'll be first down.
• 1:30:47
  Defense and holding, number 35, run by Prisant.
• 1:30:51
  First down on a holding penalty.
• 1:30:56
  Cold ball, first down, Steelers 36.
• 1:30:59
  Let's see if Jones doesn't fly it back off of play action and try to hit Roger Card deep. It's about time.
• 1:31:06
  Well, Carr has caught one for 17 yards in a TD so far today. Wide left, Dowdy the other way.
• 1:31:11
  High formation, leaks the front man. Takes the hand up, rolls back deep to throw.
• 1:31:15
  Fires over the middle to Lydell Mitchell at the Steelers 30 and fumbled and the Steelers anti-Russell recovers with the 29.
• 1:31:23
  Lydell fumbled when taken down by one of the linebackers and the other one Russell recovered.
• 1:31:29
  Jack Hamm made the tackle.
• 1:31:32
  I have to almost say you can't run without the right.
• 1:31:37
  This is a good play.
• 1:31:38
  Now, wait a minute. They may have ruled the ball was whistled dead prior to the fumble. They do.
• 1:31:44
  Oh boy.
• 1:31:47
  Oh!
• 1:31:50
  I tell you, as a rooter for the Colts, that's hard to believe.
• 1:31:55
  Well, it is a judgment call on the part of the official and my golly, you can't, you know, I agree with what you've said, Vince, but that's the way he looked at it.
• 1:32:03
  So that's the way it's going to be.
• 1:32:05
  But boy, oh boy.
• 1:32:07
  I'll tell you, that's one of the weird ones.
• 1:32:09
  You take them anyway you can get them.
• 1:32:11
  At the 29 yard line, second down now.
• 1:32:15
  And about the four, high formation, the turn, the gift to Lydell off the right side as there's nothing there and he's taken down at the 28 yard line.
• 1:32:27
  Joe Green down on the bottom of the pile.
• 1:32:29
  Donnie, see if Green doesn't line up offside. They're so very, very close to him.
• 1:32:33
  I mean, he does. Well, he does, Vince. They put him inside between the guard and the center and they try to, you know, like foul up the block and the offensive block.
• 1:32:41
  Sometimes it looks real good and other times, you know, he gets manhandled.
• 1:32:48
  Well, it'll be a third down and about two for the Colts of all resting near the Steeler 28 yard line as they come to a standard pro set.
• 1:32:54
  McCauley, Roosevelt leaks the running backs behind Jones, Kennedy and Chester, the tight end.
• 1:32:59
  Waiting for the snap to Jones. He gets it to Leakes. Leakes through the middle.
• 1:33:02
  He's got the first down and then some to the Steeler 22 yard line.
• 1:33:07
  Mike Wigter made the tackle.
• 1:33:13
  And the Colts have a first down.
• 1:33:15
  This is a running their linebacker actually over the defensive right end actually overruns the plate.
• 1:33:20
  I had a game on and he ran right by Roosevelt Leakes at the Steeler 22.
• 1:33:25
  First down Baltimore times six oh four remaining third quarter Steelers leading by a count of 26 to seven.
• 1:33:33
  Split in the backfield. Nobody behind Jones. Quarterback takes it away without a fake.
• 1:33:37
  A deep drop sets up the throw fires toward the end zone. Roger Carr can't get to it.
• 1:33:41
  It's over his head and we'll go to a second down and 10 Baltimore at the Steeler 22.
• 1:33:48
  The high pass not brought on by the rush, especially still defensive backs.
• 1:33:54
  Super coverage at two people playing card and they were with him as the ball went over his overthrow.
• 1:33:59
  I tell you that last play there that pass rush since there was a lot of holding and grabbing and carrying on going on in there.
• 1:34:06
  I'm surprised the flag wasn't thrown in that one.
• 1:34:10
  Well they dropped the number 63 Ernie Holmes out of the defensive front four and add a defensive back shell.
• 1:34:17
  So they now come up with a down three to the Steelers on a second down 10 Baltimore at the Pittsburgh 22.
• 1:34:23
  Split in the backfield. Nobody behind Jones.
• 1:34:26
  He's not able to take away Jones. He answers away wants to throw.
• 1:34:29
  Gets pressure tries to run out of it and is taken down at the Steeler 33.
• 1:34:32
  It was Andy Russell, blitzing linebacker who got to him along with a defensive replacement Donnie Shell, a safety man.
• 1:34:41
  And the loss is back.
• 1:34:42
  And the 59 Jack Hamm, he also caused that. He jumped up.
• 1:34:44
  You watch Hamm coming in from the left side to see.
• 1:34:47
  And now Jones can't see where to go. He almost loses the ball.
• 1:34:51
  And that tried old expression you've heard a zillion times now you know how Custer must have felt.
• 1:34:56
  Well they were all over Jones back there.
• 1:34:58
  Where did they all come from?
• 1:34:59
  That's exactly right.
• 1:35:00
  Three down business has bothered them all year long.
• 1:35:05
  And you know who's blitzing.
• 1:35:07
  Third down and 20 from the Steeler 32.
• 1:35:10
  And the Colts hard pressed to do anything against this brilliant defensive unit of the Pittsburgh Steelers.
• 1:35:15
  Could be a blitz again.
• 1:35:17
  Take away by Jones. Back to throw. Here they come again.
• 1:35:19
  Jones steps up. Hold on. They got him again.
• 1:35:22
  Russell's got Jones down at the 40 yard line.
• 1:35:25
  And look at the coverage downfield.
• 1:35:27
  Nobody was nearly open.
• 1:35:30
  Vincent again. Oh Jones he nearly lost that ball.
• 1:35:32
  He just didn't pop out of his arm for a minute.
• 1:35:35
  And he's cooking up to pull it back in again.
• 1:35:38
  Fourth down and 28 now for Baltimore.
• 1:35:41
  And David Lee is on the punt with 518 remaining on the Steelers.
• 1:35:45
  Just bringing it to the Colts. They just never let up.
• 1:35:48
  Keep coming. Keep coming.
• 1:35:50
  Physically a very strong football team.
• 1:35:52
  And a very well coached and a team that executes.
• 1:35:55
  Makes very few mistakes.
• 1:35:59
  Punting formation and David Lee is on waiting downfield.
• 1:36:05
  It's going to be Theo Bell once again for Pittsburgh.
• 1:36:08
  And we'll have David Lee waiting for the snap from Forest Blue.
• 1:36:12
  All ready to go. There's the snap. It's perfect.
• 1:36:14
  Here comes some pressure.
• 1:36:15
  And David Lee angles it to the penalty.
• 1:36:18
  Five goes down. David Lee was hit.
• 1:36:20
  They ran into the kicker as Bell is snowed under with tacklers.
• 1:36:23
  At about the 14 yard line they ran into David Lee at midfield.
• 1:36:27
  I'll tell you what. Pittsburgh's doing everything to lose the game now.
• 1:36:34
  There's another big break. They're not arguing.
• 1:36:36
  This is unbelievable.
• 1:36:37
  They didn't run over him. They just kind of rolled into him.
• 1:36:40
  David Lee did a pretty good job then.
• 1:36:42
  Larry Brown is the guy who ran into the putter.
• 1:36:46
  So the Colts maintain possession. It'll be first down Baltimore.
• 1:36:53
  At the 35 of the Steelers.
• 1:36:56
  What do you think Chuck Knowles thinking about right now?
• 1:37:01
  He looks very calm. You look at him on the sideline.
• 1:37:04
  He hasn't taken his hands out of his pockets.
• 1:37:06
  Wide left car. Wide right dowdy.
• 1:37:09
  Lidell and Roosevelt are the backs behind quarterback Jones.
• 1:37:12
  Waiting for the takeaway. Jones has got a straight drop.
• 1:37:15
  Deep drop. Wants to throw. Runs out of pressure.
• 1:37:17
  Jones is going to be down at the 35 yard line of the Steelers.
• 1:37:20
  He dove down and was Ernie Holmes falling on top of him.
• 1:37:24
  So Jones got it back to the line of scrimmage.
• 1:37:26
  They don't stop blocking somebody. He's going to be punched from the game's over.
• 1:37:30
  They're running every day. Not running anybody out of the backfield.
• 1:37:32
  They have to keep them in the block.
• 1:37:34
  And the deep people are covered.
• 1:37:36
  I don't know what he's going to do unless somebody fakes this set up and then feels out of the backfield.
• 1:37:42
  He was trying to go really to Chester again. Chester was the way down there.
• 1:37:45
  But Chester was also covered.
• 1:37:47
  Yeah, but if nobody comes out of the backfield for the linebacker to pick up they can go chase Chester.
• 1:37:52
  So he's not that open.
• 1:37:54
  You've got to have variety.
• 1:37:56
  We've got another passing situation.
• 1:37:58
  Baltimore now with a second and 10 of the Steelers. 35.
• 1:38:01
  Waiting for Jones to take away.
• 1:38:03
  The Steelers may have jumped off. A penalty flag is thrown and a flare pass to Roosevelt Leakes is poorly thrown.
• 1:38:08
  And we'll see whether the penalty flag is offside against Pittsburgh.
• 1:38:12
  Or whether they were drawn off. We'll know in a moment.
• 1:38:15
  Pittsburgh's right defense of him.
• 1:38:17
  Yeah.
• 1:38:19
  Oh.
• 1:38:21
  He was drawn off really.
• 1:38:24
  Well we'll know in a moment. It looks as though it might go against Baltimore.
• 1:38:28
  Meaning illegal motion. And he was drawn offside.
• 1:38:30
  A false start I believe is what they call it.
• 1:38:34
  Here it is.
• 1:38:37
  Illegal motion.
• 1:38:39
  Up and decline.
• 1:38:41
  Third and 10. Illegal motion decline.
• 1:38:44
  Third down 10. Baltimore with a stealer. 35.
• 1:38:48
  Now as we sit here this afternoon and watch the Colts and the Steelers.
• 1:38:51
  Vince you've got a bit of an idea how the Steelers were able to hang up the record they've hung up coming into this afternoon's ball game.
• 1:38:57
  Defensively they're just plain overpowering. That's all.
• 1:39:01
  They'll go to Chester now Chuck.
• 1:39:03
  Okay third down 10. Chester is split off the right end of the line. Jones takes it away. A deep drop sets up.
• 1:39:09
  Runs out of trouble. Now still running looking and Joe Green chases him.
• 1:39:12
  Green dies misses him. And going out of bounds is Jones at about the 31 yard line of the Steelers.
• 1:39:18
  A very very frustrating afternoon for young Burt Jones.
• 1:39:22
  He just has not had the chance to do anything at all. Jack Hamm ran him out of bounds.
• 1:39:26
  Every time he looks up there are three or four white shirted Steelers all over him.
• 1:39:31
  And the coverage downfield of the deep backfield of the Steelers has been almost flawless.
• 1:39:36
  He's going to go for the fourth down for the first down. Why not?
• 1:39:39
  That's right. Are you kidding? 350 left in the third quarter.
• 1:39:42
  They had the ball it's like a scrimmage. Put the ball in the 35 yard line and let the team run with it.
• 1:39:46
  They've had many chances to get closer but they haven't gotten there.
• 1:39:51
  That looks like the longest run for the line of scrimmage.
• 1:39:54
  It's from the 32 yard line.
• 1:39:58
  We've got about seven to go. Fourth and seven. Jones fakes the handoff from McCauley.
• 1:40:02
  McCauley throws a good block to help him. Going for broke. Roger Carr can't get there.
• 1:40:06
  He had double coverage. Brown was with him and Edwards was with him.
• 1:40:10
  So the Colts give it all over to the Steelers.
• 1:40:13
  At the Steelers 32. Time out of Baltimore with a score of the Steelers 26 and the Colts 7.
• 1:40:20
  What a number this sandwich is. How is yours?
• 1:40:24
  I'm thinking.
• 1:40:25
  You're too busy to see a cute little number over there.
• 1:40:28
  I'm too busy with numbers to be interested in numbers.
• 1:40:30
  Too interested in numbers to be interested in numbers.
• 1:40:32
  Look, I'm trying to figure out what number to play in the numbers game.
• 1:40:36
  You wouldn't understand but you take today's temperature, add the weight of a cougar and multiply by Einstein's factor.
• 1:40:42
  Well that's only just picking any three digit number, a date, a street number.
• 1:40:45
  That's all you got to do to play today to cash tonight.
• 1:40:47
  What about Einstein?
• 1:40:49
  Why didn't he win the Lowry's numbers game?
• 1:40:51
  Music
• 1:40:56
  During this season a lot of people are traveling, going home.
• 1:41:00

• 1:41:15
  Household finance and equal opportunity lender.
• 1:41:19
  Music
• 1:41:25
  Well the Steelers take the football again with 3.44 remaining in the third quarter.
• 1:41:29
  The Steelers just scored every time they handled the football with the exception of one time in the first half.
• 1:41:36
  And for the first time this afternoon the Colts stopped them the last time they handled the football.
• 1:41:40
  They had a series of three downs and worked the ball around the three sequences and worked the ball from their own 31.
• 1:41:45
  And then the Colts stopped them with the Steeler 46.
• 1:41:48
  And they were forced to kick the ball away.
• 1:41:51
  Now the Steelers with Bradshaw go to work again.
• 1:41:54
  Harrison is in the ball game.
• 1:41:56
  Franco Harris with bruised ribs is setting it out.
• 1:41:58
  Waiting for the takeaway by Bradshaw.
• 1:42:00
  Rolls back wants to throw.
• 1:42:01
  Looks.
• 1:42:02
  Fires to the back out of the backfield.
• 1:42:03
  Harris.
• 1:42:04
  Harris to the 40, 45.
• 1:42:06
  And up to midfield goes Harris.
• 1:42:07
  He runs first and then Franco Harris.
• 1:42:09
  Reggie Harrison a pretty good back from Cincinnati.
• 1:42:12
  A three year veteran.
• 1:42:14
  And he picks up first down at the Steeler 49 yard line.
• 1:42:17
  Vince I have to say that I have to say really that this guy Bradshaw I didn't think he was that good a quarterback.
• 1:42:22
  But he's picking him apart like a surgeon now.
• 1:42:24
  He really is and it is a difference.
• 1:42:26
  They're linebackers against the ability to cover the backs coming out of the backfield and we haven't been able to do that.
• 1:42:34
  All ready to go with the first down at the 49 yard line.
• 1:42:37
  Bradshaw turns gives to Harrison.
• 1:42:39
  Harrison off the right side and runs through a couple of arm tackles and is finally pulled down to the Baltimore Colt 43 yard line.
• 1:42:46
  This is what you're called controlling the game now.
• 1:42:49
  Now they have to worry.
• 1:42:50
  They're worried about the pass and now they open them up a little bit.
• 1:42:53
  And these guys this offensive line of the Steelers they show you a lot today.
• 1:42:58
  I don't know how good they've been all year but that'd be pretty good to win nine or a low though.
• 1:43:02
  Second down and two at the Baltimore Colt 42 yard line.
• 1:43:06
  And again it's Harrison and a few setbacks behind Bradshaw to give to Harrison into the middle he goes.
• 1:43:11
  Chayonsky stands him up at about the 40 yard line.
• 1:43:14
  But it's first down for the Steelers.
• 1:43:20
  Harrison has replaced Franco Harris.
• 1:43:23
  Harris is out with bruised ribs and Harrison has picked up a first down at Baltimore's 40 yard line.
• 1:43:29
  This makes it all the tougher now when they're running game going for the sides of throw the ball.
• 1:43:34
  They got to look for the run first and it really does slow down on your pass.
• 1:43:38
  Frankly Arthur as we watch as they develop this afternoon it looks as though the Steelers honestly can do whatever they want to almost anytime they want to.
• 1:43:46
  Bradshaw play action fake he's back to throw sets up fires.
• 1:43:49
  Lins one with a great catch with a 27 yard line at the Baltimore Colts.
• 1:43:59
  He is hurt but he held out on the football.
• 1:44:01
  Mumford helped to put him down.
• 1:44:02
  Ron gets up and says I'm all right.
• 1:44:06
  You don't catch the ball any better than that Chuck.
• 1:44:09
  That's just a great catch.
• 1:44:10
  It's a great pass.
• 1:44:11
  It has to be.
• 1:44:12
  Put right in there.
• 1:44:14
  Who's the guy number 46 is the guy that made the tackles softer.
• 1:44:17
  It looks like he's trying to get out of the way.
• 1:44:20
  He has hands like the let the cough.
• 1:44:22
  He really 27 and doesn't that fellow have a pair of hands.
• 1:44:25
  Oh my goodness.
• 1:44:27
  Steelers on a drive once again first down to the Baltimore 27 Bradshaw has them down and set the takeaway.
• 1:44:33
  He gives it to Harrison Harrison off the left side shots one tackler and falls inside the 25 to about the 23 yard line.
• 1:44:39
  Hanging on was Jim Chayefsky who refused to be shaken off.
• 1:44:42
  Salter came up to help him out the ball is rested at 24 a gain of three second and seven.
• 1:44:47
  That was the best shot by our linebackers all day.
• 1:44:49
  A stand like not 33 over the runner.
• 1:44:53
  Good thought Larry Brown goes out of the ballgame as a tight end.
• 1:44:56
  Stallworth comes in so they're playing a Lewis is a slot right.
• 1:45:00
  Lynn Swan outside him to the right and Star Wars splits off on the left side.
• 1:45:03
  They split the backfield.
• 1:45:04
  Nobody behind Bradshaw on a second down at seven at the cold 24 Bradshaw hands it to Harrison into the middle.
• 1:45:10
  He goes and he is down to the 20 yard line and the Colts were able to stand him up down there with fellows like Airman and Dutton.
• 1:45:16
  But they're doing it just to eat the time up now.
• 1:45:19
  Exactly right.
• 1:45:20
  We've got to get the ball back if we're going to do anything at all.
• 1:45:26
  Well the about the only thing the Colts have been able to do so far this afternoon against the Steelers do something no other team did all year score a touchdown against them in the first quarter when it was a ballgame nine to seven.
• 1:45:37
  That's right.
• 1:45:38
  And now the time is running out for the third period and there are going to play off so we shut him out in the third period.
• 1:45:46
  Well that's the end of the third quarter with our score.
• 1:45:49
  The Pittsburgh Steelers 26 the Baltimore Colts seven.
• 1:45:59
  Well the fourth quarter about to get underway at Memorial Stadium in Baltimore and it would appear that the better part of this football game.
• 1:46:07
  The first half of the first quarter clearly belonged to the Steelers the second half of the first quarter belonged to the Colts and everything else has belonged to Pittsburgh as they now have the ball at the Baltimore 20 yard line third down and three as we go to the final quarter this afternoon.
• 1:46:20
  Even Stan Stan White just come from talking with the Russia broader beginning of fourth quarter and I bet you might say why so what do you what do you think Ted.
• 1:46:29
  Stop. Well the Steelers have put on an awesome demonstration this afternoon slot right Lewis flank wide right is a stall where the other way rather Lin Swan and the other way it's all worth to the left takeaway the gift goes to a Harrison off the left side it's daylight to the 15
• 1:46:45
  guys between people of the 10 yard line goes Harrison who is the replacement for Franco Harris first down for the Steelers around the Baltimore Colts 11 yard line. That's right you know they might be a little demoralized to the offense not even able to take advantage of many opportunities from around the 35 yard line and now the defense figures what the heck they can't score what are we supposed to do.
• 1:47:09
  Maybe maybe we'll get lucky and Pittsburgh will quick kick.
• 1:47:13
  Well the Steelers on the football from the same offensive sets one split wide right a slot inside him as Lewis the other way this time.
• 1:47:21
  It looks like Theo Bell hold on a minute it is and now the takeaway by Bradshaw lobster into the corner of the end zone and complete intended for Swan and Mumford with him every step of the way was just had better protection that time and was able to break up the play.
• 1:47:33
  It was not Theo Bell on that far side it was Ernie Pugh.
• 1:47:38
  It is second down and 10 for the Steelers at the cold 11 yard line. Just a lob just to put it in the corner. He was throwing to a target and hoping that Swan could get to the ball before the defender Mumford.
• 1:47:49
  It didn't work that time that daughter dugout was open strong would have been in the dressing room and probably could have caught it in the runway.
• 1:47:56
  The way he goes same offensive set Starworth this time wide left slot right as a Lewis hold on a minute they have a shift and now the takeaway by Bradshaw he's back to throw a little bit of pressure throws down the gut touchdown Pittsburgh Lynn's law is there.
• 1:48:11
  We had a safety boots on and he threw it right where the safety man left.
• 1:48:17
  Just a great play and it left it up the month for to cover that spot and Lloyd couldn't get over it was a delayed safety blitz.
• 1:48:29
  We have 1410 remaining the Steelers are just putting the icing on the cake.
• 1:48:34
  They have been able to do it in every department of football this afternoon with a possible exception of kicking off.
• 1:48:40
  I got a good idea to let the clock just continually one run one.
• 1:48:47
  Now waiting for the point after touchdown effort by Jarrella.
• 1:48:50
  It's in the air. It looks all right. No penalty flags and Jarrella really uncomfortable gimping and limping off to the sideline.
• 1:48:57
  You can tell that that groin injury is bothering him as the Steelers now lead at 33 to seven and they're just doing a thing on the Baltimore Colts.
• 1:49:04
  They have completely dominated they have outplayed them in all departments.
• 1:49:09
  Now the Colts had a great year. They played some very good football the first half of the year.
• 1:49:14
  It appeared that they did not play as well as they might have played in the second half of the season.
• 1:49:18
  And that downward swing has continued this afternoon at the expense of the Steelers.
• 1:49:22
  And I have a feeling the Steelers are going to make a lot of football teams look bad before they finish this season.
• 1:49:27
  60,000 20 this afternoon the attendance that is a capacity turnout.
• 1:49:32
  This is been our best offensive weapon so far.
• 1:49:35
  And I think that the play Chuck has been a short kickoff other than that we're not even in the ballgame.
• 1:49:40
  Now that's just how good the Steelers have been.
• 1:49:43
  And you know what I don't think they've had a put one time have they.
• 1:49:46
  Yeah they've funded one to one time. Well that's part of it.
• 1:49:49
  Yes I must have been out having a short one.
• 1:49:53
  If they go on to open as it looks as though they will.
• 1:49:56
  What a battle it should be because Oakland has come up short so many times and it looks as though they had it.
• 1:50:02
  It's a immaculate reception they call it a few years ago.
• 1:50:05
  Frank O'Hara's got the rebound and beat him in the last second after Oakland looked like they had it.
• 1:50:09
  And now they're playing in Oakland's park.
• 1:50:11
  Well if Pittsburgh is to go there that'll be worth watching.
• 1:50:15
  All ready to go.
• 1:50:17
  Bobby Walden will kick off now for the Steelers.
• 1:50:20
  He's their putter on the ball and he hit it pretty good right down the throat.
• 1:50:23
  Howard Stevens the 15 now the 20 to the 30.
• 1:50:27
  Jicks outside to the 30 on his feet has spilled forward to about the 35 yard line.
• 1:50:32
  Colts go to work first and ten at their own 35.
• 1:50:34
  The tackle credit to Benny Cunningham a rookie from Clemson.
• 1:50:37
  You talk about a wide a tight end with size.
• 1:50:40
  There's a guy that's six four two hundred and fifty five pounds.
• 1:50:45
  What's his number Chuck? He's eighty nine. I didn't even see him. Oh yeah I see him now.
• 1:50:50
  He's a rookie. He's a guy with the yellow pants on. That's one of them.
• 1:50:55
  Well Jones and his teammates are just completely frustrated with the defensive efforts of the Steelers all day.
• 1:51:00
  The Steelers have been just as good as everybody said they would be this afternoon.
• 1:51:04
  The takeaway by Jones rolls a little bit left sets up throws down the middle caught by Lydell Mitchell at the forty two three yard line of the Colts and taken down there by middle linebacker Jack Lambert.
• 1:51:13
  This guy Lambert he's all over the place.
• 1:51:15
  He is not only all over the place but he hits like a ton. I'll tell you he does.
• 1:51:20
  How big is he? He's six four and two twenty and I notice he doesn't help people up the way some of them do after he knocks them down.
• 1:51:27
  He doesn't like anybody until the game's over. Well that helps the people up if you knock them down is for the birds anyhow.
• 1:51:32
  A lot of guys do it huh? Did he? Sure it takes your energy away. That's right.
• 1:51:38
  Second down and two at the Colts forty three and Jones is going to have to just fill the air with footballs hands off the Lydell Mitchell cuts into the middle he's stuck up at the forty five.
• 1:51:47
  He may have the first down it looks as though he's just across the forty five and if he is that'll be a first down.
• 1:51:53
  Bernthold was a judge on the sideline says he's got a first down.
• 1:51:58
  That's the story. Didn't he play with Gino Barrow-Tolerant College? He played with Gino, Matson, Joe Scudera and a lot of those guys out there.
• 1:52:07
  They didn't have to go to school all they had to do was show up for practice.
• 1:52:10
  I remember a remark that Arthur Donovan made one day as the bus went by that University of San Francisco is there's the spot with a retired Mark Heddy's grades.
• 1:52:19
  The pass is thrown off the hands of Raymond Chester at the Steeler forty five yard line.
• 1:52:24
  Second down coming from Baltimore at their own forty five.
• 1:52:29
  Well I know what a bitter disappointment this football game has been to so many Baltimore Colts football fans.
• 1:52:35
  And you know you look at the cold effort this afternoon and I think if you talk to the players as Vince will on the postgame show today a lot of them are going to say that they just didn't play very well.
• 1:52:44
  But I have found down through the years Vince that a good team a team as good as the Steelers are going to make you look a lot worse than you really are.
• 1:52:50
  That would be the understatement of the year. Chuck they really are.
• 1:52:54
  You know the Steelers are just look as though they can do anything they want almost any time they want to.
• 1:52:58
  They're coming on like gangbusters.
• 1:53:00
  All ready to go with a second and ten Jones Yanks it away wants to throw sets up the fighters receiver a lot of time fires down the middle.
• 1:53:06
  Now he has at the 30 of the Steelers and is going to be taken down inside the 30 yard line.
• 1:53:16
  Mel Glantz made the stopping tackle and Dowdy gets out of that mess of tacklers and comes up all right first down at the Steelers twenty nine.
• 1:53:27
  Twenty six yards the biggest play of the day.
• 1:53:31
  One of them once again for those in the stadium who are tuned in on transistor radio.
• 1:53:40
  The bad behavior that a few fans who will occasionally show on the stadium will not be tolerated at all in any manner shape or form.
• 1:53:47
  Throw caught by car at the 11 yard line of the Steelers back there was a linebacker Russell helping cloud and car made the catch at the 11 yard line for another first.
• 1:53:57
  That was a great catch because he almost lost the handle on that one Chuck.
• 1:54:01
  They come back in with the ball.
• 1:54:05
  Thirty three to seven the Steelers Colts first down at the dealer 11 yard line.
• 1:54:10
  They show an eye formation Roosevelt leaks and light El Mitchell down a wide right wide wide right car down the other way.
• 1:54:17
  And the Colts are not ready to put it in play again.
• 1:54:20
  Whoops contact has made his Jones pulls back the throw but the penalty flag has been dropped to show you quite wide went right up the Jones stop right in front of that reached out and yank the football.
• 1:54:32
  I think it's Jones is pulling these guys off side because he got a little bit of a jerk.
• 1:54:38
  Well let's see what the referee.
• 1:54:46
  Jones jerked.
• 1:54:54
  We'll find out from Haggerty here it is.
• 1:54:58
  All he says is he doesn't define and tell you who the person is well done in the quarterback and movies head.
• 1:55:08
  But it looks like he's moving his shoulders to Steve for that has come in now that defensive line and going out to get a little bit of a breather is white white at the 16 yard line Jones drops a throw looks to find a receiver throws into the end zone
• 1:55:21
  and it's complete Raymond Chester tried to make the catch in the end zone and didn't get to it. Jack Lambert is down there.
• 1:55:28
  Chester was guilty of interference.
• 1:55:31
  What's a little push among friends.
• 1:55:36
  I'll tell you one thing that's not a Lambert to Arthur Donovan would fit into a few of the football teams that you played with years ago.
• 1:55:43
  Really is that you say look at he really did he he watches on an instant replay he actually punched Lambert in the face.
• 1:55:52
  And he's right to you call him Jack.
• 1:55:55
  Well they come up with a second I don't think too much to get thrown out again.
• 1:55:58
  That's still 15 Jones has a split backfield behind him to take away my back to throw.
• 1:56:04
  He lobs it up in the air Roger Carr can't get to it.
• 1:56:08
  I guess Roger Carr was out of bounds Brown wouldn't get many territory to move in.
• 1:56:14
  You think that official has to use a comb to brush his hair.
• 1:56:17
  Watch that talk on the sorry.
• 1:56:20
  You know he was out of bounds before he you know you can't go out of bounds and come back in and make the play.
• 1:56:29
  And white goes out of the ball game holes goes out of the ball game here comes Lambert back in and he brings with him linebacker Lauren Tars.
• 1:56:35
  Is this is not a penalty if you go out of bounds and come back in and catch the ball.
• 1:56:39
  I think it is.
• 1:56:40
  Yeah.
• 1:56:41
  Be an unsportsmanlike conduct kind of a call.
• 1:56:43
  They even had a complete forward pass with it.
• 1:56:46
  I know there's a penalty on it.
• 1:56:47
  There is.
• 1:56:48
  Yeah.
• 1:56:49
  Wide right Dowdy.
• 1:56:50
  Roger Carr the other way comes your put some third down 15 at the stealer 16 yard line.
• 1:56:57
  Jones yanks it away.
• 1:56:58
  Here they come he throws to Dowdy.
• 1:57:00
  Dowdy's got it at the five penalty fly go down as Dowdy goes inside the five yard line.
• 1:57:05
  The man making the tackle J.T. Thomas.
• 1:57:08
  Let's see what the flag is all about.
• 1:57:10
  George Coon says it's against the Steelers.
• 1:57:13
  I have been against Chester Chester violated he was hit.
• 1:57:16
  Although they threw to Dowdy there was foul committed against Chester.
• 1:57:20
  I think.
• 1:57:21
  They were all over.
• 1:57:22
  He thinks it's a passing affair.
• 1:57:24
  He thinks he's lying.
• 1:57:26
  Well the defensive pass and affairs penalty declined the Baltimore Colts hold on a minute.
• 1:57:32
  It's just wait a minute.
• 1:57:33
  We're not declining the penalty.
• 1:57:35
  We accept the penalty because that'll give us the first down.
• 1:57:39
  Sure.
• 1:57:40
  Give them a first down at the five.
• 1:57:41
  Right.
• 1:57:42
  Because they need to go to the one yard line in order to get a first down.
• 1:57:44
  The first down at the eight yard line.
• 1:57:46
  The eight yard line.
• 1:57:48
  Jones is in the game.
• 1:57:52
  First down.
• 1:57:53
  For the Colts the dealer eight thirty three to seven the Steelers lead eleven twenty seven remaining.
• 1:58:01
  Wide right down in the other way car.
• 1:58:03
  Light El Mitchell at Roosevelt Leaks the split backfield behind Bert Jones.
• 1:58:08
  Bert not having one of his better days throwing the ball gives it to light El a sweep on the right and light out of the five for the one and down he goes at that spot.
• 1:58:15
  Light El did not get in.
• 1:58:16
  Jones has thrown the ball twenty four times completed eleven.
• 1:58:21
  And they're going to spot light down somewhere around the two yard line.
• 1:58:25
  They bring it back in and spot it out the one yard line.
• 1:58:28
  OK.
• 1:58:29
  Second and goal from the one.
• 1:58:33
  And I don't know if it's the soup on number thirty twenty three.
• 1:58:37
  Pretty good ball player Mike Wagner a safety man from Western Illinois.
• 1:58:41
  He wrestles them down to the ground.
• 1:58:43
  Light El Mitchell is out of the ball game Roosevelt Leaks and Don McCauley the running back second down and goal from the one yard line to turn the gift to Leaks left side touchdown Baltimore.
• 1:58:52
  Leaks went over the left side for the score.
• 1:59:00
  The Steelers now thirty three Baltimore coming up on fourteen if the point after is good.
• 1:59:06
  With ten forty four remaining.
• 1:59:08
  I think you've got to say they haven't quit.
• 1:59:13
  They haven't quit.
• 1:59:18
  They've got to figure out some way of stopping that offensive unit of the Steelers and getting that football back something they have not been able to do effectively in the first half of the ballgame.
• 1:59:27
  They did shut them out of the third quarter the point after penalty flag drop kick is OK.
• 1:59:32
  And let's see what the penalty flag is all about.
• 1:59:35
  The officials talking over it may have been offside on the Steelers part of the point after offside Pittsburgh declined Baltimore with ten forty four remaining in the fourth quarter with a score.
• 1:59:45
  The Steelers thirty three the Baltimore Colts 14 timeout here in Baltimore back in one minute.
• 1:59:52
  Well the Colts have hung up their second touchdown drive covering sixty five yards and ten plays and Linhardt kicked off now from the forty yard line.
• 2:00:00
  And his big old Cunningham Benny a rookie from Clemson the fellow we talked about Arthur with that fantastic size.
• 2:00:06
  We feel like Brooks Robinson.
• 2:00:10
  There's a tight end he showed up.
• 2:00:13
  And Linhardt did a good job masking that thing he approached that ball at full speed and then tried to hook it to the side and Benny Cunningham grabbed it.
• 2:00:21
  This has been quite a surprise this year.
• 2:00:23
  Linhardt I really have a great year he really has had a great year. One of the very best kickers in all the football first down at midfield for the Steelers.
• 2:00:31
  The gift goes to Harrison Harrison off the left side bounces off the tackle and he gets drafted about the call forty eight second down and eight now for the Steelers for WVOB and Belair Maryland and all of our network stations will pause now for station identification.
• 2:00:44
  This is the Metro media Baltimore Colts football network.
• 2:00:48
  Well the Steelers second down eight at the Baltimore forty eight they've got Harrison and Fuqua setbacks.
• 2:00:53
  Stallworth wide left swung wide right.
• 2:00:55
  Bradshaw quarterbacks without a fake he a deep drop ready to throw sets up fires down the middle Lin's wants got it and down he goes the penalty flag has been dropped right along in the offensive backfield where usually you figure if you see a flag it could be holding.
• 2:01:14
  He's doing it Mansfield the center's feet. I guess he he was holding one of the officials in that Oakland New England ballgame through a penalty marker and hit a player right on the helmet with it yesterday.
• 2:01:28
  I'm telling you that they have to get bigger lighter lenses I guess the Colts have had the best of this.
• 2:01:38
  Really Sam Davis the guard that's true. The penalties against the Steelers have really helped keep the Colts in the ballgame.
• 2:01:46
  Second down 19 now from the Steelers forty two they show an eye formation with Harris and the front man in the eye and Fuqua the second man they take away by Bradshaw he flares it out the Fuqua Fuqua is in the clear up to midfield you put down to the Baltimore forty to the thirty five to the Baltimore thirty to the Baltimore thirty two yard line.
• 2:02:05
  Twenty eight yard line goes Fuqua you think that wasn't a great call.
• 2:02:09
  Anything I said about Bradshaw I don't really take it back. He is pretty smart.
• 2:02:14
  He's had a great day throwing the ball down that's a good pass it has to be perfectly thrown him back flair and out of the eye and he had some great blocking going on down there too.
• 2:02:23
  They really were loving people. I wonder that they sit on it and you suggested earlier save something for Oakland next week but they're using things that you've never heard of.
• 2:02:32
  Barry Mullins made a whale of a block cracking back there that play for the Steelers with a first down now the ball resting in the Baltimore cold twenty seven yard line Bradshaw the inside hand off the Fuqua sweep on the right side cuts behind a good block.
• 2:02:46
  It was inside the twenty to the Baltimore eighteen or nineteen just a matter of the clock running out now let me tell you they're just they're blowing them out of there. The words of the great old man we view banks you say I'm in Paris but he never got hit.
• 2:03:04
  The ball being spotted down and it'll be a first down for the Steelers.
• 2:03:20
  First half of the Baltimore sixteen Bradshaw takes it away gets to the Fuqua tries the left side it's open again inside the 10 goes Fuqua and the Steelers you mentioned a moment ago the Colts of course have not quit they don't know how to quit and neither do the Steelers they just keep right on coming after you.
• 2:03:36
  Dan White made the tackle all resting at the 10 yard line of the Baltimore Colts is second down and for thirty three to 14 the Steelers are leading the Baltimore Colts and this late stage in the ballgame.
• 2:03:56
  Some of the speculators are getting a little bit unhappy and that will not be tolerated shouldn't be tolerated at any time. All ready to go Bradshaw gives it to Harrison down the middle at the five to the four he's in for the touchdown.
• 2:04:10
  Harrison scores right down the middle for the Steelers. That was just a delayed draw a trap up the middle and it was just greatly executed.
• 2:04:19
  Mike Barnes gets blocked out of there real good. He's the only guy that touched him all the way up. This guy came in late but he just pushed him in for the touchdown.
• 2:04:30
  Well the Colts this afternoon against the Steelers from the what is it they say Vince the city of bridges.
• 2:04:35
  They are getting they're getting a thumping this afternoon they're getting a lesson that how a championship football team can operate when it's gutted in high gear and the Steelers have had it in high gear from the moment they walked out on the field a few hours ago.
• 2:04:47
  They should have stayed on the bridges instead of coming here. Mansfield is going to try to point after touchdown. He hits it looks pretty good. Mansfield scores he kicks the point after touchdown and it's now the Steelers 40 to 14.
• 2:05:01
  Arthur there's a break in the action. Let's pause now for this message.
• 2:05:14
  Well with seven minutes and 37 seconds left the outcome has not been in doubt for quite a little while this afternoon. The Steelers now lead it by 40 to 14.
• 2:05:24
  They have just done a magnificent job in all departments and have clearly been this afternoon unquestionably this afternoon. The much better football team Bobby Walden will kick it off and Howard Stevens waiting down on the 10 yard line.
• 2:05:38
  Well that hits it they missed it off the side of the foot and it's going to go out of bounds at about the Baltimore 27. Did you ever see such bad guys.
• 2:05:46
  And let me tell you we've been kidding about it but they better get something better get your well for next week. I want to be doing this well with a lead of 40 to 14.
• 2:05:54
  They're not going to you know use up your other they're going to get rest him and treat him and see if they can get him ready for Oakland.
• 2:06:00
  And I got two words for Oakland next weekend. Watch out luck. Good luck. Be ready. Amen. Because I think this team is going to take them apart.
• 2:06:11
  I'll tell you this is a great looking football team. As a Baltimore broadcaster you naturally have to be kind of a Baltimore Colts fan. I am very proud of the fact that I am.
• 2:06:20
  But this afternoon the Steelers have just handed it to the Baltimore Colts. They have been just a much much better football team.
• 2:06:26
  I will see an onside kick here. Well you might not be deliberate though. He popped it up. Back goes Ron Lee. Ron Lee takes it at the Baltimore 30.
• 2:06:35
  Thirty five now to 40 and is going to be taken down at the 45 yard line. Baltimore goes to work at that spot. First down at their own 45.
• 2:06:42
  I'll tell you a tackle made by Lauren Taus. Big retro shot is going to be rolling over somewhere watching this kick going on.
• 2:06:49
  Remember the afternoon the evening. No it was an afternoon game down in Dallas Texas when Mumbles Steve Meyer kicked off and the wind hit it and blew it behind him.
• 2:06:57
  Everybody on our kickoff team started running down and all of a sudden they all looked up in the air. There goes the ball behind them. They all turn around. New voice.
• 2:07:05
  Well here goes the double wing formation now from Baltimore and the takeaway by Birdie. He's got nothing to do but try to keep putting points up there.
• 2:07:12
  Throw to Roosevelt leaks and leaks his head at the 45 with a first down and a penalty flag is dropped back around the 40 yard line.
• 2:07:19
  Jack Ham made the tackle for the Steelers at the 45 yard line. Come on. Stop throwing up flags so we can get out of here.
• 2:07:28
  Anybody want to volunteer for the locker room show. I'll tell you what Vince. I don't think the locker room show will be that difficult today.
• 2:07:34
  Down through the weeks this golf football team has proven that they are that they've got a lot of class that they've always been good pros and very gracious about appearing on postgame shows.
• 2:07:44
  Not only after victories but after losses and I think you'll find them to be their gracious self again.
• 2:07:50
  Second down and 20 now. Well Chuck I think it does you good to build a relationship with some of these fellows to allow you to do that because some members of the press from out of town asking the pointed questions it's a little tougher for them.
• 2:08:08
  But there's an old trite expression again if you can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen. Right. Amen brothers.
• 2:08:13
  Second down and 20 at the 35 Jones pulls it away his back to throw rolling left penalty flag is down throws it upfield for grabs and it goes out of bounds.
• 2:08:20
  There goes another flag. They were rough sides. They were right defensive and moved before the ball was snapped.
• 2:08:27
  Well I wonder you look at a you look at a football game like this and the Baltimore Colts have been just manhandled by the Steelers this afternoon.
• 2:08:35
  They're losing at 40 to 14 and I think call football fans begin to wonder now what changes up to the Colts have to make to be able to play on a level with teams like the Steelers.
• 2:08:45
  And that is a topic that you can discuss with quite a lot of the world during the offseason Chuck.
• 2:08:50
  You're right. Watching what they do.
• 2:08:52
  They go some of the Steelers or they look like they just come back from the battle of Gettysburg.
• 2:08:57
  Yep.
• 2:08:59
  Rocky Blyer and some other fellows got a big. Oh that's what that's Frank O'Hara.
• 2:09:05
  Thank you.
• 2:09:06
  As is the ribs and the trouble breathing Jones is back to throw again.
• 2:09:11
  Here comes pressure he ducks out of the pressure and then they can't go anywhere.
• 2:09:14
  The Steelers are all over him looks like Ernie Holmes is there and the Steelers just keep coming.
• 2:09:19
  You know Chuck everybody was there and nobody got blocked.
• 2:09:23
  They still have the starting linebackers Ham and Russell and Lambert in the game so he can't throw quick ones to the backs.
• 2:09:30
  Which has been a problem all day long and that's been one of the biggest reasons the offense hadn't been able to move it.
• 2:09:36
  And they're not worried about the run now.
• 2:09:39
  No.
• 2:09:40
  And they're just teeing off on them.
• 2:09:41
  Seven minutes left.
• 2:09:42
  This is fun time everybody grab a bone. They're out there to do it.
• 2:09:47
  And if the Colts were in the same position well we've seen them in that position.
• 2:09:50
  They'd be doing the same thing.
• 2:09:53
  Jones with back to throw once again to see if he can find anybody.
• 2:09:57
  Flares at the Don McCauley to the 40. Don McCauley goes out of bounds at the Baltimore 40.
• 2:10:01
  Maybe at the first down mark well no not quite.
• 2:10:05
  He's got 11 yards to go for the first down.
• 2:10:07
  Just exactly. Just exactly. Third down about 11 now.
• 2:10:10
  The ball resting at the Baltimore Colts.
• 2:10:12
  Pull down a minute the penalty flag has been dropped.
• 2:10:14
  Offside down there against the Colts.
• 2:10:17
  Come on.
• 2:10:18
  Offside Baltimore.
• 2:10:20
  Well.
• 2:10:22
  These guys have been watching too much movies.
• 2:10:27
  Well I don't know Arthur I'm not in a position to say but one thing I can tell you is that they certainly have not been able to come up with a good effort against the Steelers this afternoon.
• 2:10:34
  Whether that's due entirely to the Steelers or not I'm not in a position to say.
• 2:10:38
  But they have not shown the kind of football they are capable of showing.
• 2:10:42
  Any more penalties will be end up in the end zone.
• 2:10:45
  Maybe everybody go away.
• 2:10:48
  A lot of folks are.
• 2:10:50
  See the seats.
• 2:10:53
  They're down long yardage for Baltimore.
• 2:10:55
  They've got second down and a half a day.
• 2:10:57
  Back to throw is Jones again.
• 2:10:59
  Plenty of time this time throws up the middle and his Chester can't get to it at the 40 yard line.
• 2:11:04
  It'll be third down coming now.
• 2:11:08
  It's just turned out into a route now I don't think it's even.
• 2:11:15
  Like I remember time Vince when we were playing the 49ers and 58 we had to come out in the second half and score a lot of points.
• 2:11:22
  Well John was moving the team and it was down on the eight yard line and made to go and he called the timeout he come over to we've.
• 2:11:29
  And he says what he got for me we've and says I don't know John what do you got.
• 2:11:33
  And John said let's write him over here give me something I could use.
• 2:11:36
  And we've walked around and we've come back and said to John get me a first down.
• 2:11:40
  John throws a pass for a touchdown and we've turned around everybody thought he was a genius.
• 2:11:47
  Here's that third down and still tremendous yardage Jones setting up the throw.
• 2:11:51
  Here comes a line back at talls and he's got him.
• 2:11:53
  Taws downs him back at the 15 yard line.
• 2:11:57
  And it is fourth down a tremendous yardage for Baltimore back at the road 15.
• 2:12:01
  Don't get him mad it's bad enough as it is.
• 2:12:05
  Now the Steelers have come to Baltimore this afternoon and shown the Baltimore Colts football fans that the winning streak that carried them into the playoffs was not a fluke.
• 2:12:13
  They are just a son of a gun of a football team and they deserve to win this afternoon's ballgame.
• 2:12:19
  They've outplayed the Colts in every way matter shape and form.
• 2:12:23
  No doubt about it with but one exception and that's the punting game and they haven't had the punt but what once no twice.
• 2:12:32
  Here is David Lee waiting for the snap from center.
• 2:12:35
  He's got it OK and David just hit the daylights out of it all the way back to the Steelers 37 goes.
• 2:12:42
  Poe along the 40 yard line come now reverses his field eating up the clock as Poe and he's going to be spun down at the 35 yard line.
• 2:12:49
  That's six minutes remaining on a long time to go.
• 2:12:51
  There's a timeout with a score.
• 2:12:53
  The Steelers 40 the Baltimore Colts 40.
• 2:13:05
  Well the Steelers will take over on their own 35 yard line and they've got a brand new quarterback out there.
• 2:13:10
  Mike Krusik a kid who carried him when Bradshaw was not able to do so he won the six games that he started.
• 2:13:15
  He was a son of a gun of a youngster and he's now quarterbacking the Steelers.
• 2:13:19
  He turns gives it off to Fuqua tries the left side he bolts straight ahead for almost five about to the 40 yard line before the Colts take him down.
• 2:13:27
  And you know what it doesn't look like they're going to let up either when you get it in gear just keep it in gear.
• 2:13:33
  Amen.
• 2:13:34
  He'd go right through the week right out the open.
• 2:13:35
  One of my favorite golf pros used to say when you get them two down get them three when you get them three down get them four when you get them four get them five.
• 2:13:43
  Krusik was six for six games one so he knows what it feels to be the winner at the 40 yard line.
• 2:13:51
  He got a second down at about six Krusik all ready to go.
• 2:13:55
  He takes it away wants to throw the ball he flares it out to Harrison Harrison at the 40 is going to get taken down by Stan White Bruce Laird.
• 2:14:01
  And there's little no gain on the play.
• 2:14:04
  So it'll be second down and just about so let's call the second out of five.
• 2:14:12
  Yes sir.
• 2:14:13
  Third down at five.
• 2:14:14
  Excuse me.
• 2:14:15
  Now you wonder back to the bomb to Frank Lewis on the third play of the game after we'd stopped two running plays and I have to ask it what kind of an effect that may have had.
• 2:14:25
  It could it could have really could have done you know hurt him.
• 2:14:31
  Krusik yanked it away without a fake wants to throw the young quarterback a rookie plenty of time throws over the middle it's caught by number 83 Theo Bell at the Baltimore cold forty seven yard line for a first down.
• 2:14:42
  Who's actually pick you up on to you get all that time to throw the ball.
• 2:14:47
  First down Steelers at the Baltimore cold forty seven.
• 2:14:51
  You know you think back again and we have to do that still is probably open kickoff member that we like the ball loose we might have had it on the 20 yard line.
• 2:15:01
  I mean it might have just delayed what's happened again.
• 2:15:04
  I think I think it would have been a better football if you're asking for the turning point of the ballgame I thought it was a flip of the coin.
• 2:15:14
  Here comes to you. He's going off to the left and then into the middle and he has stopped right along the line of scrimmage in other words just the Steelers have just been clearly the much better football team and the Colts did manage to put together one drive but there was just a just meaningless because Pittsburgh has been that good.
• 2:15:33
  You talk about the Pittsburgh defensive line and linebackers they keep building them up and building them up but today the outstanding and part of the whole of the whole game has been their offensive.
• 2:15:44
  Absolutely right. No two ways about it. This is a good and this team they'll block their block Oakland right out of the ballpark.
• 2:15:52
  And then in the game nine on nine Krusik in a quarterback takes it away without a fake wants to throw looks to find a receiver throws over the middle Reggie Harris has got it to the 40 yard line of the Colts to the 45 and then down to about the 30 yard line goes Harrison taken down by Brian Salter a little bit of a flare to the back coming out of the backfield and the Steelers have another first down at the cold 30.
• 2:16:11
  I watched this boy. He's a crew Zach is it the quarterback. He's like he's a crew Zach. I watched in college the opening game against Notre Dame two years ago and they would have won the ball game at the D.C. coach let him throw the ball and he lost by about six points.
• 2:16:25
  And his kids didn't and he's got a great arm. Well this has been one of the most disappointing Sundays in Baltimore cold history and sometime a home field advantage had absolutely no effect none whatsoever on the Steelers.
• 2:16:40
  Maybe next time we'll play without any fans in the stands. Here's Drusek pressure coming Fred. He runs out of the pressure looking for somebody to throw to fires and hits the old bell.
• 2:16:49
  Bell is inside the Baltimore 20 yard line with another stealer first down pretty good looking kid that Mike Krusek six foot out of 96 founder from D.C.
• 2:16:58
  Austin Carver Virginia or whatever that means. Where'd you come from Virginia. First down Steelers of all of the Colts 19 the Colts now you know in the longest two minutes of their career their season waiting for that clock to run down.
• 2:17:13
  Some bad Sundays here about 1954 we played the Rams in the first place was a was a sleeper. You remember that. Sure. Yeah. Those 30 first teams. Well with the score of the Steelers 40 the Colts 14 there is the two minute warning will be back in 60 seconds.
• 2:17:31
  Well we'll go to the final two minutes. The Steelers will go to Oakland next Sunday the day after Christmas and we'll play the Oakland Raiders and I would doubt very much if Oakland has what it takes to stop this team if they play the way they have played this afternoon.
• 2:17:46
  Yeah I kind of think events actually. What happened to the wheel at halftime. It was supposed to be with the spoke on the field. Well you may be shooting up.
• 2:17:55
  I'll do a second. I'll do a second rather has him down a set inside the 20th the 19 first day. He's going to throw again throws right down the middle and it's off the hands of the intended receiver Ernie Powell.
• 2:18:08
  Second down and 10. Now the wheel has done a lot. We've had a lot of great characters like that. I remember the late Willie the Rooter. He was a terrific guy when you were playing. We hope Mr.
• 2:18:17
  Gaddis who's been around here forever. I love it. Give me a say. You know he's like playing second team now to the wheel and the spoke. Oh God. This is my section every week.
• 2:18:29
  I saw him. We saw him before the ballgame today. Great guy. He sure is. Well the Steelers now have a second down and 10 at the 19. Krucek back to throw once more. He throws over the middle and it's caught I think by Harrison at about the 16 yard line and Harrison is taken down by Daryl Luce.
• 2:18:44
  I'll tell you they finally got to the quarterback. Krucek got nailed. That third and seven. Now the there'll be no running on the field this afternoon. The Colts here in Baltimore.
• 2:18:58
  The conduct of our fans I think has been exemplary compared to the conduct of a lot of fans I've seen around the country. I'm glad it's going to be that way. The people don't you know behave in such an ill mannered fashion and race out on the field and do silly things.
• 2:19:11
  It's just now you just can't tolerate that and they will not be allowed to do it this afternoon. Here's the give on the draw to Pucca. Pucca down to the 10. To the five. Hits Mumford I think it was and took him down at about the three yard line.
• 2:19:23
  That wasn't Mumford excuse me. This is just getting himself to injury. That's all it's doing. Maybe maybe Pittsburgh better save these points because maybe in years to come the things turn around. History has a way of turning things around.
• 2:19:37
  And so it just happened to them. Well they put some second team players in. What do you want them to do? That's exactly right. I'd like to have them run the clock out.
• 2:19:46
  Well the Colts have been handed a rubbing this afternoon they will not soon forget. And they have learned that the championship caliber football is a different brand of football and the Steelers are very definitely a championship caliber team.
• 2:20:00
  The give goes to Fuqua to the left side and he is not going to make it down to the 23 second mark and counting. I'll tell you right now I'll take a long shot. You want to pick a Super Bowl winner for 1977. I'll pick the Steelers.
• 2:20:13
  Now there is a little class here Donnie. They're letting the clock run out. They really are.
• 2:20:18
  I mean they just came and they played great football. That they did. They really played great football and they deserve to win this afternoon and they did it in a championship fashion. They did it in a most convincing manner.
• 2:20:30
  That's the end of the game. The Steelers went at 40 to 14. Well the hopes of the Baltimore Colts for a Super Bowl year this year in Baltimore were just rolled right off the cliff by a fantastic display of power football on the part of the Pittsburgh Steelers.
• 2:20:44
  Who came to Baltimore this afternoon and proved once again that the way they wrapped up the season with nine straight victories, the way they threw in five shutouts was not a fluke. It wasn't accidental. It wasn't a weak schedule.
• 2:20:54
  It was the result of a very, very good football team doing their job the way they are capable of doing it. They scored first this afternoon. Three plays into the football game. They had a third and nine of their own 24.
• 2:21:08
  Well the hopes of the Baltimore Colts for a Super Bowl year this year in Baltimore were just rolled right off the cliff by a fantastic display of power football on the part of the Pittsburgh Steelers.
• 2:21:18
  Who came to Baltimore this afternoon and proved once again that the way they wrapped up the season with nine straight victories, the way they threw in five shutouts was not a fluke. It wasn't accidental. It wasn't a weak schedule.
• 2:21:28
  It was the result of a very, very good football team doing their job the way they are capable of doing it. They scored first this afternoon. Three plays into the football game. They had a third and nine of their own 24. Bradshaw cut loose a 76 yard bomb to Frank Lewis.
• 2:21:42
  And that had kind of set the tone of things to come as the Steelers overwhelmed the Colts and just blew them right out this afternoon. Bradshaw had a great day throwing for 264 yards completing 13 of 18.
• 2:21:53
  Franco Harris ran for 132 yards before he left the game with bruised ribs. His replacement Reggie Harrison carried the ball 11 times for 43. Lewis only caught two balls all afternoon but for a total of 103 yards and one of those a touchdown.
• 2:22:06
  You stack that against the performance of Bert Jones. 11 of 25 this afternoon for 144 yards. In the running department, Lydell Mitchell carried the ball 16 times and the best he could get out of it was a total of 55 yards.
• 2:22:18
  It was the Steelers from the opening gun and they are go to Oakland next Sunday afternoon to play the Oakland Raiders. And I think if you ask every Baltimore Colts fan who walks out of the stadium this afternoon to a man they would tell you that the Oakland Raiders might be in a lot of trouble when they take on the Steelers next week.
• 2:22:33
  For three touchdown passes 76 yards to Frank Lewis 30 and 11 yards to Lynn Swan. Reggie Harrison scored from a yard out and 10 yards away. Roy Jarrell kicked two field goals of 45 and 25 yards as the Steelers sadly beat the Colts 40 to 14. Franco Harris gained 132 yards on the ground.
• 2:22:50
  Frank Lewis caught two for 103 yards. Lynn Swan caught five for 71 and Terry Bradshaw only missed completing five passes. He was 13 of 18 good for 264 yards. Bert Jones a 17 yard TD pass to Roger Carr was Baltimore's only point in the first half and Roosevelt Leakes scored from a yard out in the fourth quarter.
• 2:23:08
  The Pittsburgh led 26 to 7 at the half and they beat Baltimore 40 to 14. Now next Sunday it's Pittsburgh in Oakland for the AFC Championship game and Pittsburgh Steelers looked very convincing today in beating the Colts and Baltimore was really never in the ballgame after midway through the second period of play.
• 2:23:26
  Now Bert Jones was 11 of 25 for 144 yards. The Colts on the ground gained a total of 71 yards. Lydell Mitchell 55 yards was the high man for the day on 16 carries. While the Pittsburgh Steelers gained a total of 228 yards on the ground.
• 2:23:41
  Franco Harris had 132 and 18 carries and really that ground game just kept Baltimore at unease the whole game and really dominated the ballgame. Terry Bradshaw had 264 yards. Krusik had 44. 308 yards total in passing for Pittsburgh.
• 2:23:57
  228 on the ground. That's a total of 536 yards on offense for Pittsburgh and a total of 40 points. And when you consider the fact that Pittsburgh blew a touchdown when they fumbled on the two yard line of the Colts and Roy Jarrell missed an extra point.
• 2:24:11
  The score could have easily been 48 to 14. So the final though was 40 to 14. So we'll be back with more on the WCBM scoreboard show in just one minute. Ladies and gentlemen this is Tom Davis back at Memorial Stadium in Baltimore and a plane has just crashed into the upper deck.
• 2:24:25
  It's a private plane. It's a single engine plane. Chuck Thompson has the binoculars on it. The plane has crashed into the upper deck around section one or 41 behind home plate. The plane came inside the horseshoe of the stadium while we were out on the commercial and the plane went into the upper deck as it tried to rise and get above the stadium.
• 2:24:42
  Luckily there was no spectators around when it happened and there are some spectators up there trying to get the person out that was flying the plane. The plane crashed into the upper deck and luckily no fans were hurt. Now evidently the driver of the plane is hurt and there are fans up there now trying to free whoever was driving the plane.
• 2:25:00
  They got him out Tom. You know before he came in I saw that guy come along once before and I said to Toledo Bracey I said there's a guy buzzing the stadium and here he came in again. Chuck you want to put the mic on you got the binoculars on there.
• 2:25:14
  The time he went to the closed end that's when he crashed into it. I think before he was going to the upper deck. You're right that's where I saw him. Chuck put that other mic on if you want to real quick and you got the binoculars up there. I could not believe it while we were out for the commercial we were just standing here waiting to come back on the air and this plane came inside the stadium and it's a single engine plane according to Chuck Thompson. Chuck you got Chuck's mic up. I'm trying to see if there's any identifying marks on the airplane but I can't see anything at all. The numbers are not available to me. It's just got a blue stripe around the tail.
• 2:25:43
  Section and the manner in which it is sitting in the upper deck. We can't read the registration numbers on the plane. The pilot was carried out of the plane and is on his way now to the hospital I would think and the police did a very good job along with the other personnel of the stadium getting up there with a fire extinguisher.
• 2:25:58
  And fortunately there were no spectators in that area in the closed end of the grandstand or the horseshoe. People are there been many many people hurt. Chuck I couldn't believe it when the plane started to go up in the air. I said he'd never made all of it's unbelievable.
• 2:26:12
  It looked like there was no way it was going to go up and then he just crashed into the almost where the seats that are chair back end and where the bench seats begin say in section 41 or 40 right behind home plate in the baseball section in the upper deck and it's roughly about 15 or 20 rows up where the chair back seats end.
• 2:26:28
  He hit the stadium because if he had gone over he would have killed a lot of people out in the parking lot. That's right Artie. Oh my it is unbelievable. What's happening to our society? Why are we getting that sick?
• 2:26:38
  Oh boy I mean it's kind of a gas Artie. I hope it's that.
• 2:26:43
  Well you know you have to do a heck of a bend to land in the playing field. Somebody's going back in the plane again.
• 2:26:52
  To see if there's anybody else in there as far as we know there was just the pilot but somebody is going in there now and apparently that was the only person in the airplane Arthur because they certainly would have made another effort to get another person out if there had been anybody in there.
• 2:27:06
  They got the only. He's just thinking Chuck right. It looked like he just didn't get that altitude going. Well there should have been no business for him to be inside this horseshoe to begin with. Absolutely not. He broke every rule in the book in flying an airplane and number one he's not supposed to be at that kind of an altitude and it was just you know very poor judgment on the pilot's part.
• 2:27:23
  Yeah they're bringing the stretchers so there's a nurse there Chuck. So there may be somebody still in the plane. There might be another person. No I think they're going to take it into the runway where the pilot is. All I can say ladies and gentlemen this is one of the most astonishing things I've ever seen in my entire life.
• 2:27:39
  The plane came into Memorial Stadium about three minutes ago a single engine plane. It tried to get up behind the horseshoe could not and it crashed into the upper deck in the section 41 or 40 I'm not exactly sure but it's right above the baseball press box in the upper deck.
• 2:27:54
  The plane now is nosedive into the stands with the tail portion standing straight up in the air. The gentleman who apparently was driving the plane or piloting the plane is out of the plane. The plane luckily did not get into any fire situation nothing really. Thanks to the personnel around the radio who knew exactly what to do.
• 2:28:10
  I know this reminds me of way back in World War II the kamikaze pilots. Well that's what it looked like. I mean to tell you I've never seen anything like it in my entire life. It was almost like seeing a movie come to life. But you know people are now the greatest blessing if there is a blessing in such a tragedy is the fact that the seats where he hit were empty and no spectators have been involved other than for the man flying the airplane.
• 2:28:35
  Can you imagine Chuck what would have happened if it would have happened say a two minutes sooner. I mean there were people still coming down there two minutes before that. I mean it's just lucky. Luckily they got the binoculars and you can see the
• 2:28:46
  that's as Ernie Tyler points out supposing that you know the score had been the other way and the Baltimore Colts had won the ballgame. How many people would have been in that area. There'd been hundreds of people there and it wouldn't have made any difference to the man flying the airplane. Obviously his judgment was just not what was needed to successfully operate an aircraft and unfortunately he's paid a rather severe price for it. Chuck Hanero says I put the binoculars on there he knocked out about three rows on those chairback seats.
• 2:29:15
  And the first thing we did was to look to see and there are no spectators involved just the person so far as we know the only injury that came as a result of this unfortunate incident has been to the person flying the airplane.
• 2:29:28
  Not too many people taking pictures here. Everybody's astounded. I mean I think most of the people here in Baltimore that are still in the stadium are in shock and I would say it's less than maybe two thousand people in the park right now. Yeah there's very very few people. All in all it's just been a very unfortunate day.
• 2:29:42
  There's a few people at the end of the game. No not like ten minutes later. I was watching Tracy and I were watching a man at police down there and I was saying gee you know what a fine looking group it is and I saw a plane coming around. I said you know I think somebody's buzzing his field.
• 2:29:57
  I heard you say that Arthur. I never saw the plane. I heard it but didn't see it. And then again I said here it comes. And I looked and saw it. I think it was like in the movies. Oh it was unbelievable. All I can say is I mean it was just like a movie coming to life.
