A team of many exteriors — at timet much lilt* a mature

RANDY JOHNSON ,'QB

Randy and Bob Berry split quarter- back duties in 1968. Johnson, who started the first five games and two more in the last month of the sea- son, has recovered from the ankle injury and broken ribs which slow- ed him down. Bob Berry started the other eight games and was at the controls both times the Falcons won. Second - year man Bruce Lemmerman backs them up. Be- cause of last year's injuries it would be unfair to judge Randy Johnson by the 1968 season. Coach Van Brock! in believes that potentially Randy has everything to be an All- Pro . The coach says, "This year will be a pivotal year for him. Having his worst three years behind him, he should start making a move in the right direction - that is, toward championship class quarterbacking." ; ATLANTA fAUCON,

(a, «t rul I ^n^iir-nflw --—. J The Colts in 1968 won fifteen games, a feat accomplished by no other team in the history of professional football. That a 1969 loss, in the Super Bowl, must be remembered as the end result of the '68 record detracts little from the fact that the Colts have been one of professional football's most successful teams over a period of more than a decade.

6 'org

Since 1957, the Colts have never experienced' a losing season, winning games at an amazing 70 per cent clip. Last year the Colts continued to win despite losing , the quarterback who called signals during their re- markable string of fruitful campaigns, for virtually the whole season.

Matte again led the team in rushing and , with his peak performance coming in the NFL title game when he scored three touchdowns in the Colts' 34-0 romp over Cleveland. "We proved last year," says Shula, "that our running attack can be effective. Our backs and line worked well together and we know we can go to our ground game at any time."

Term ut Sim Houston Illinois SUte RICK VOLK/DB Semfwd The Bears ask very little for 1 969. .. .simply, a modest, even competitive course that would be a delightful contrast to the highs-and-lows, ups-ond-downs, soaring hopes and bitter frustrations that characterized 1968.

Coach Dooley goes into 1969 with an open mind on a Quarterback situation that is very competitive. , no. 1 man until a fractured shoulder removed him in the third name of last season, and Virge Carter, spectacular rookie who led the Bears to four straight victories before he suffered a fractured ankle, are the obvious top contenders. Concannon returned for the lust four games. Dooley said, "A man holding a job at the end of a season usually is given primary consideration the next year, in our case, that would be Concannon yet Carter, because of his great showing under pressure, must be considered torj. The NFL has become so. rugged in recent seasons that we need three quarterbacks and Bobby Douglas? comes with 'credentials that establish him as one of the best in the nation last season."

VIRGIL CARTER QB JACK CONCANNON/QB Returning veteran personnel, including the high quality talent- thai needed surgery and missed playing time in 1968, and o satisfactory lineup of collegiate player selec- tions are plus factors.

Dick Butkus was unanimous all- NKL middle linebacker, the third time in four years Mac Percival led the NFL field goal kickers (and set a new Bears' record) with 25 three-pointers, ten of which came in succession. Twelve of his field goals were from thirty or more yards. . .with eight of f01 1 > Gale Stayers was sidelined in the first half of the game against San Francisco and missed all of the five games that remained on the schedule— yet, a tribute to his greatness, he was a unanimous all-NFL selection at for the fourth straight time.

For 1969 the plan is formoreof the seme medicine. Nelson, who hit for 162 completions in 293 attempts for 2.366 yards and 19 TDs. will again be throwing to a group of prime receivers. Split and Paul War field led the Browns with 60 catches last season; end Flanker Gary Collins who was hurt last year should be high on the receiving end in '69,

This year the running attack should continue. In 1968 Kelly gained 1.239 yards; this averages out at 6 yds per try. He also scored 10 TDs. Fullback has retired, but he had already been on the bench in favor of that hard-running 215-pounder young Charley Harraway.

But what really makes Cleveland's running game so potent is a veteran offensive line that is right up there with the DICK SHRAFRATH/T beat in the league. Guard at 33 is still an ace at delivering that key block for most of Kelly's runs. As for tackle age 32, not much gets by him.

Monte Clark, the other tackle is also 32. One of the Browns' problems it that they lack, depth in the offensive line so that the oldtimers could rest. Yet. there are two youthful hopefuls in the persons of guard John Dem&rie, age 24, and center , age 26.

On defense veterans still occupy many key positions and there is therefore a potential age problem. Most of the vets continue to work in the same manner that has brought the Browns to its highly respected position. End Bill GI&bb has been replaced by Ron Snidow, who was brought over from Washington. Earlier Jack Gregory had taken over the other end from who had retired. CLEVELAND BROWNs\

Meredith is still the Cowboy's No. 1 quarterback and will be until somebody proves he's better. Coach Landry feels that Morton is in his fifth year and is greatly improved. He should make a strong bid for a" starting position. Then there is . Jerry didn't play last year, but he provided that insurance Dallas felt they needed to make a run for the championship.

Although the Packers finished third in the Central Division '69, last season, there is strong reason to believe that in indeed the Packers WILL be back. Last year, quarterback , the man who moves the Packers, missed a total of 28 quarters of football, including 4 entire games and major portions of three others. The front four on defense didn't play an entire gome intact - and then not completely healthy - until the tenth game of the season.

All told, the Packers defeated only one other Central Division opponent while losing 4 games by a total of 26 points U" points deficit to Vikings, 6 to Lions and '2 to Bears) yet outscored all opponents by a total of 54 points in registering a 6-7-1 record. In 1969 the League's premier signal caller, Bart Starr, will be back and this year he will have in reserve, the third year field general who returned from Army duty to turn back the Bears quarter- in the season finale. In addition, second year back will also be available. With Starr healths- and Horn ready, the Packers are well set at quarterback.

WILLIS CRENSHAW/RB JIM HART/QB

Quarterback Jim Hart, much improved in his second season, faces a stiff challenge for the starting: quarterback job from Charley Johnson, former first stringer coming back after two years in service. Hart held the starting job for most of the 1968 (season, with Johnson starting a pair of games and coming off the bench to spark a come- fram-behind [triumph against Pittsburgh. Hart showed one vital improvement in 1968 as he reduced his number of interceptions from a team- record 30 to a respectable 18. Helped by a solid offensive line, he was dumped only 1& times.

The emergence of Willis Crenshaw and the return of fully-sound John Roland highlight a solid running attack that includes three other fine veterans who showed many flashes of brilliance in '68. Crenshaw, a full-season starting role for the first time, gained 813 yards to rank seventh in the league and ran for six toughdowns. Roland, who came off major knee surgery late in 1967. improved steadily as the season went on, and was back at peak form by the close of the year. He was the Big Red's No. 2 ground gainer with 455 yards. CARDINALS

On defense there appears every reason to expect continued, even dramatic improvement. By mid- season in 1968, the unit and Nolan's defensive system seemed to have been created for each other. Typical of the performance was that of the veteran tackle Charlie Krueger. long regarded as one of the top three or four playing in the NFL. In his 10th year. Krueger made 51 unassisted tackles, was so respected by opposing defenses that he was double team blocked 162 times, a truly re- markable statistic.

At hough the Super Bowl is a recent innovation in the history of professional football; it will be long time before last year's game will be out-done for dramatic impact.

The trememdous favorite was the best team in Baltimore's existence, a team which had won fif- teen games ... an achievment that no team in professional football had ever accomplished

. . . the Baltimore Colts. They faced an opponent which was younger, statistically Inferior and rated by the experts as a poor underdog. What's more, this baby-team was led by a quar- terback that was, and still is, the most controversial figure ever to come out of the game.

At Sunday, January 12, 1968 dawned In Miami, Florida, everyone was sure that this would be no game. Experts and amatuers alike agreed that this would be a MASSACRE. Everyone was cer- tain of the outcome . . . everyone except one man, the youthful, colorful, outspoken Jet quarter- back, .

At 3:06 P. M. Eastern Standard Time, under partly cloudy sides the coin was tossed. New York won the tots and chose to receive. Michaels (f79/DE-K) kicked to N.Y, and the contest was on. THE FIRST QUARTER

Christy ((45/DB) returned the kick from the end zone to the 23 yard line. For the next 4 min- utes, N.Y. kept possession of the ball. Namath used Snell '41 RB almost exclusively to travel the ball to the 38 yard line. When Johnson (#33/TE) punted, the Colts were offside and lost 5 yards 'on the penalty. Johnson punted again, this time from the 43 and Brown UftlRB) returned

it to N. Y. "a 27.

As the Colts took possession of tke ball for the first time, the fans looked at each other know- ingly. Now the Jets would get their taste of that fantastic Baltimore defense. The Colts started their attack. One first down followed another. After 4 first downs they had reached N.Y.'s 19

yard line. Time now for a field goal. Boyd (#407LH) lined up, kicked and . . . missed.

Namath had. the ball now. Testing the defense, he passed 6 times in the next 2 minutes but couldn't' get out of his own territory. Johnson punted 38 yards . , Brown returned to the Colts' 42.

Morrall had no better luck than Namath. He passed twice, both incomplete, Hill (M5/RB) ran for 3 small yards and the Colts punted.

What had happened!' Morrall had passed 15 times, completed 5 and had 3 interceptions. Namath On their own 20, N'.Y. started to roll. In four consecutive plays Snell ran for 26 yards and 2 had passed 16 times, but he completed 10 with no interceptions. Those ten passes accounted first downs. Namath tried to reach Sauer (>83 i.K and missed. Next he passed to Mathis far 111 yards. Snell netted 70 yards more on the ground for a total of 179 yards for the Jets.

THE THIRD QUARTER

Morrall passed three in a row. The first was overthrown, the second found Hill, but there was no gain and the third resulted In a loss of two valuable yards. The completely be-dazzled Colts punted 44 yards and waited for New-York's charge.

The charge came! In the next five minutes Namath passed 7 times and completed 4 for 40 yards. Boozer picked up four more rushing and N.Y. was on the 23. Turner kicked his second Field led 13-0. Namath was hurt but returned to the game after missing ! Coal (30 yards) and N.Y. only one down At this point, with 3:51 left in the quarter, Baltimore pulled Morrall out.

The Colts looked like a different team. From their 6 yard line they held N.Y. back for three plays. On the fourth down Turner kicked a 9 yard Field Goal for this third of the afternoon. The score was 16—0. They wouldn't score again.

With a little more than 13 minutes left. &>ltimore fought back. The Colts made 3 first downs only to have the stubborn N.Y. defense block their attempts to store. N.Y. took possession after a Colt punt and used up 5 minutes to hammer down to Baltimore's 35. Turner attempted a 42 yard Field Coal for his first failure.

With 6 and a half minutes left, Unitas poured on. Bad arm or not, he passed. Three passes . . . no good. On his fourth try he completed to Orr (jTSM/E-FL) for 17 yards. Two more passes missed. On the third he found Mackey for 11 yards.

The fighting quarterback missed the next three and then connected with Orr for 11 more. Three tries later Hill finally got through the tiring Jet line for the first TD of that historical, hysterical afternoon. Michaels made the P.A.T. and it was N.Y. 16-BALT.-7.

For the next 3 minutes and 14 seconds it was fight all the way, but the clock ran out for Balt- imore. A disbelieving nation of football fans saw the final results and shook their heads in won- der.

And so it ended. The mighty had fallen, the infant had matured as two football armadas clashed with a thunder that can still be heard. A spectacle had unfolded, a beautiful, horrible, ruthless, tender drama .... it was called THE SUPER BOWL. SUNDAY, SEPT. 21 (FIRST WEEK)
