- In a 1989 NFL week 13 game on Monday Night Football between the Buffalo Bills and the Seattle Seahawks, the Seahawks won 17-16 at the Kingdome. However, the Seahawks fans were so disgusted with how the game ended that despite the win, for some bizarre reason, the fans booed them off the field so loudly it could be heard on national television on ABC's broadcast. This is the story behind the bizarre booing and fan behavior by the 12s, even after winning

“The last time Scott Norwood would miss a 47 yard field goal wide right in front of a national audience on ABC”
That’s COLD bro 😂
Talk about eerie foreshadowing.
Obviously kicking standards weren’t what they are today back then, but as a Bills fan who didn’t experience those years and has to look at highlights years later, Norwood didn’t seem like the most clutch kicker and I think the Bills let him hang around a bit too long. I can respect how the community embraced him after he missed in the Super Bowl and I hope he’s doing as good as he can these days, but it’s frustrating to know he struggled with long field goal attempts long before that game and I don’t think the Bills strongly considered bringing in another kicker just to see what would happen.
I agree. cold. "Ouch baby, very ouch" -Austin Powers.
@@justinmaybach6388 according to Wikipedia (there is a whole page on that missed kick) sideline recordings actually show the ball was held improperly so it wasn’t entirely Norwood’s fault
@@justinmaybach6388 To be fair, 47 yard was no gimme in the 1980s and 1990s. I doubt if there was any kicker back then who you would consider even close to automatic at that range like there are today.
Fun Fact: The Seahawks were one of 11 teams still in playoff contention going into the season finale. They got eliminated in the first game that week, thanks to a win by…wait for it…the Buffalo Bills.
Nice memory better comment
The AFC version of the Seahawks were a perennial playoff contender between 1983-1988
It would have been more interesting had the Bills been playing somebody other than the absolutely horrible Jets, who had long given up on the season, and their coach, and any pretense of trying. On a bitterly cold Saturday afternoon in front of a mere 21,000+ freezing, angry and in all likelihood completely numb, fans.
To be fair to the Bills though. After playing a difficult December schedule to that point (Saints, at Seahawks, at Niners) where they went 0-3. They had earned this cupcake win.
Coincidentally, the Seahawks played the 2nd game that Saturday afternoon and got pummeled (and shutout) by Washington 29-0.
@@footwork216 I remember that final game against the Redskins. Largent's last game. Ironically, that win put the Skins at 10-6, but for the third time in 11 seasons, they finished 10-6 and did not make the playoffs. That has to be some sort of record in the 16 game era.
@@NosferatusCoffin Liked for actually typing Redskins 👏👏👏 They do in fact have three non-playoff 10-win seasons in the 16-game era but overall my team has four 10-win non-playoff seasons and missing out at 10-4 is worse than doing so with 2 more losses.
Largent was so good. I feel like he's forgotten by today's fans a little bit. They always mention Rice, Moss, etcetera (for good reason) but Largent set those records in a running league. Playing for a Head Coach nicknamed "Ground Chuck". My favorite Largent play of all time as when he absolutely smoked Steve Atwater after an interception.
It was Mike Harden he hit not Steve Atwater
i thought it was another big mouth bronco louis wright.
Largent is not forgotten in my book and goes back to 1976 when the HAWKS entered the league. Largent is and will always be the Greatest Seahawk of all time.
@@richardgentry6996 yep. largent did it right . largent did it quietly. he may not have had speed but he had enough quickness to get open. coulc run routes with the best of them. and had hands. rice made a bad move asking dor largent's no. 80 for his cup of coffee with hawks. i liked the largent zorn afc kingdome blue silver green hawks. the nfc neon green 12th man ugly stadium hawks can go to he-ll.
@@stevenbauer4799 I'm old skool 2. And of course I have my On field White with Seahawk on shoulder #80. Steve Largent. GO HAWKS.
Knox was correct. Largent was all about playing the game right, it's why he was such a great player. He wouldn't have wanted the Seahawks to risk losing a game just to get him a touchdown.
My thoughts EXACTLY.
While I do agree, the Devil's Advocate in me says: Last season of a player's career + You're not making the playoffs
Largent was also a great blocker and great tackler. Great player and tough as nails.
I’m with the coach here. I was already thinking along those same lines before JG9 quoted his press conference speech. Not only would you not want to risk an interception for a FG a play or 2 later, think how much more dumb the Seahawks would’ve looked if it was intercepted for a pick six. When you’re 4-8, you’ll take every W you can get. So while I do understand the fans’ frustration, ultimately Seattle did the right thing.
Another weird fact: Largent may not have scored a TD in this game, but he did score a PAT. He was the holder (yes, seriously, the Seahawks used their star WR as a holder) and took a bad snap into the endzone, which in 1989 counted for 1 point.
And of course, he breaks the record in the "YOU DON'T LIVE IN CLEVELAND, YOU LIVE IN CINCINNATI!" game. It was a weird couple of weeks for him.
For the record, Largent DID get to 100 TDs before the end of the season.
Largent’s 100th touchdown was against Cincinnati at Riverfront Stadium. It was also the game where Bengals head coach Sam Wyche saw stuff being thrown onto the field, got a microphone and addressed the stadium crowd the famous line: “You don’t live in Cleveland, you live in Cincinnati!”
And was some payback after being eliminated by them the year before--helping knock *them* out of the playoffs
@@westholmes2001 that's an important detail left out from this video and is another major reason why fans would be upset.
Damn, that completely smashes Randy Moss' 23 touchdowns. Wonder why it's never talked about 🤔🤔
As much as I respect Steve Largent as a player, I side solidly with Chuck Knox on this one. There were too many things that could go wrong if the Seahawks attempted a pass in that situation.
I think many fans just wanted to be there when history happened.
@@swirvinbirds1971 The Seahawks couldn't chance it. You play to win the game and if history happens within the flow of that, that's cool. History would've been made outside the flow of the game and it just wasn't worth the risk.
Just an FYI for you, "the wave" etiquette was created in Seattle. The wave started at UW Husky Stadium and then brought to the Kingdome by a guy we called Bill the Beer Man. No one really has the right to critique our use of the wave. Experiencing it in the Kingdome was an experience unto itself in one of the loudest stadiums in the world. There is a reason we were called "False Start City" and the number 12 was retired in honor of the "12th man".
You say that but your quarterback is drew lock 🤢
@@BostonMassacre Thank goodness. I haven't been this excited about Seahawks football in years. Also, i think our quarterback is Geno Smith.
Greetings from the 300 level!
False Start City was a village in the mid-1990’s. Couldn’t even give away my extra season tickets if someone bailed and didn’t want to sit with 2/3 of the Dome dressed in opponent jerseys or games vs crap teams dressed as empty seats with 30,000 tickets sold.
@@markmiller3308 dark times.
Can't wait to see the Seahawks wear these throwbacks next year!
'And barring some meteor strikes they had no shot at making the ppstseason'
John McKay would be proud of that joke..
John McKay has some legendary zingers, but, one of the biggest, was, after, winning, the last two Games in the 1977 season, he said, "three, four, plane crashes, we're in the Playoffs."
Like the "it would be the last time he would miss a fg wide right"
It's a bit ironic that the Seahawks were concerned about an interception, considering that we all know what would happen 25 years later.
This kind of reminds me of the first game in 1994 when Jerry Rice broke the all-time TD record. He needed 3 to break it entering the game and had 2. The 49ers next 2 games were both on the road so if he didn't get it in Week 1, he was probably getting it in a road game. The 49ers got good field position and sent both Rice and Steve Young out and on the first play of the next possession, got the record.
There are 2 big differences though. One was that while it was late in the game, the 49ers weren't in victory formation quite yet. Two was that the 49ers were way up. So, even if they threw a pick 6, they were still up multiple scores. In this case, though, I side with Knox. If they were playing another non-contender, I'd be a little more likely to side with the fans. But even if it meant nothing to the Seahawks, it meant a lot to the Bills. And I think there is a responsibility to play to win when you're going against a contender
You'll notice he didn't do end zone dances; he acted as though he'd been there before.
Knox was completely right. There was plenty of time for Largent to get the record (which he did). Just take the win.
As he would do in the famed "You don't live in Cleveland" game six days later .
Besides, they saw Largent set the long-since-demolished consecutive games with a catch record three years earlier on MNF. Poor babies.........
Gotta love that 12th man in Seattle lol
Yeah first thing I thought about when I saw the title was they were screwing up their draft position. This is far more stupid.
See when he said they weren't screwing their draft position, I thought it was one of those "if the home team scores 20 points everyone gets a free taco" things, which I've seen teams get booed for before.
This was such a well told story. Outstanding video clips, as well. Great job!
Scott Norwood: *lines up for a 47 yard field goal*
Bills: "I'm in danger"
A much better target for Seahawks fans to boo at the time was team owner Ken Behring who eventually threatened to move the franchise to Los Angeles. So glad he sold the Seahawks to Paul Allen.
They booed him too.
Two years later they did almost exactly that, although it wasn't at Behring it was at Knox (and helped Lardass run him out), after during a putrid offensive game against KC he sent John Kasay out in the fourth quarter for a field goal with the Hawks down 19-3 and six minutes or so left.
Now keep in mind the two pt conversion's still a couple years off so it's a two-score game regardless. So the decision to fire the most successful coach in team history to that point was made right there, didn't matter the Hawks came back and played the Niners to the last minute the next week, the fans want change!
This is why the adage listen to fans today you'll be one tomorrow
Aw man you didn’t have to do Norwood like that lolllll 😂
Yes he did 😈
@@DolFan316 Not sure why Norwood didn't use this game as reminder to just aim further to the left...
The Scott Norwood joke was beautiful, LoL 🤣
The days when taking a knee didn't mean going WOKE.
Such a frustrating season (and way for the team to end the 1980s) for the Seahawks, especially after they won their first division title. Largent should have won an SB in his career.
Curt Warner should have had, a, HOF, career, but, The, Kingdome, completely, tore up his knees, and, his name, was, instantly forgotten, despite, being spelled differently.
No sympathy from me, not after their first ever playoff win being over my team 😠😠😠
@@DolFan316 Since it was my team that did I’ll hopefully make you not feel so bad by pointing out that the Seahawks got their first playoff win over the Broncos the week before.
@@CTubeMan Haha, I forgot about that!!! And yes you did make me feel a little better 😊 I was 10 BTW and it was the first game I had ever watched with my granddad who is the reason I became a DolFan to begin with. Needless to say we were both expecting a win.
Warner went, of all teams, the Rams but simply had nothing left (in fact his roster spot was taken by Marcus Dupree, who had been out of football since the end of the original USFL).
So the Rams began the decade with Curt Warner and ended it with Kurt Warner.
'Scott. Norwood missed a 47 yard field goal wide right'
Lulz
"this is genuinely a fan base loudly booing in front of the entire country .. purely because they were taking a knee. why would a fan base do that?"
Colin Kaepernick has entered the chat.
Speaking of which, I watched a documentary, about, SB 47, where Ray Lewis says, (without, technically saying it), "The, Blackout," was, intentional, to prevent a blowout, considering that the very next year, everybody east of Salt Lake City turned the Game off following, The, Halftime Show, he's got a point.
Same thing happened in 2004 with the Colts. Peyton Manning was on pace to break Marino's then record of 48 TD's in a season, and the Colts had the Ravens at home on a Sunday night nationally televised game. Having 47 TD's, the crowd (and presumably everyone else watching) wanted to see Manning at least tie or break the record, but with the Colts up 20-10 deep inside Ravens territory and about a minute left, they chose to kneel and run out the clock. Fans started booing pretty loud
They also booed the Colts for taking out their starters in 09 with 2 weeks left and an undefeated season hanging in the balance. That criticism lasted exactly 1 week before Wes Welker tore his ACL in a meaningless game for the Patriots, validating why the Colts took out the starters in the first place
Ahh the 2004 nfl season where I was in a fantasy league in high school where no one had any idea what we were doing. 2 QB league with completions worth points. I had Daunte Culpepper and Peyton Manning that year. I lost cause we had a week 17 finals and no trade deadline so everyone traded with my opponent. Not like money was involved but still.
@@marcusmcgraw3519 yep, I remember that!! But in the context of this video, do I go for a record right now, or a win right now, and get the record next week? It reminded me of the Colts Ravens game
'the two utes in question...' leo getz things done.
@@stevenbauer4799 I can always count on Scarface's right hand man for a reply!!
Sorry but winning the game is always more important regardless if your 1-15 or 15-1
This, Pete Gross night three years later an example. Hawks lose they pick Bledsoe #1 the next year instead they end up with Mirer. I'd rather have the dub, they not only helped knock the Broncos out of the playoffs but they played damn hard the next three games before getting smoked by the Chargers in the season finale.
Besides play loser games you'll still win loser prizes. Bledsoe was never really that guy, and the Hawks years later pawned Mirer off on the Bears flipped the picks around and got Walter Jones.
You don't lose your way into prosperity, hell AD never went anywhere til McVay showed up, and he and Brockers were the only ones of all those Ram first rounders who were there doing it anyway
@@mgb4692 Tell that to the Bengals and Joe Burrow.
@@mgb4692 thing is Bledsoe wasn't even a guarantee to go into the draft that year. Im a pats fan and I remember ome of the first things Parcells said as head coach was they thpight they were gonna draft rick mirer (the pats also nearly won their last game of the season in OT that would have given Seattle the number one pick)
Yes, that would also be called Le Fluke d'majeure
Steve Largent is easily Top 10 all time, one of my favorites to watch as a kid. It was a smart play to take a knee there, but I would've been kind of pissed too. Who wouldn't want to see a milestone like that live, especially for a guy who really deserved it... It's similar to the Bears giving the TD to William Perry in the Super Bowl instead of Walter Payton, it was a smart move, but they should've let Payton have it.
Having said that, his behavior in the locker room, was, indefensible, absolutely nobody is, "owed," a, SB, TD, and, his agent, was, the only person who gave him any degree of perspective.
@@matthewdaley746 I can agree with that, and who says Chicago scores if they give it to Walter? I think the play worked in large part because the Pats defense was expecting Payton but got Perry instead. I mean yeah, it's Walter Payton, he probably would have scored, but with the whole Pats D keying in on him, it wasn't a sure thing. And going back to the Seahawks a couple decades later, it's why I don't think Pete Carroll was as dumb as everyone made him out to be in their SB against the Pats. Nothing wrong with trying to surprise the opposing defense, but then you better hope and pray it works... In Pete's case it didn't.
@@devious187 Walter Payton's fumble led to a, FG, and, Jim McMahon threw two absolute ducks, that, would have been, TDs, if, caught, their defense may have been legendary, but, their offense, nearly, put them in a severe hole, early, as, for, Pete Carroll, that was, Karma, for, their disrespectful celebration against the Packers.
Mike Ditka is a horrible person who will burn in Football hell for that & trading all the Saints picks for Ricky.
Never forget that Largent had a 15-catch, 261 yard, 3 TD game against the Lions replacement players in '87. In 3 quarters. Even HE was so embarrassed about it he took himself out after 3 quarters.
Don Hutson was a beast !
Don Hutson dominated his sport in his time like few others. He's on a list with Babe Ruth, George Miken, and Wayne Gretzky.
I don't think it was to this level, but something similar happened in 2009 with the Redskins. They beat the Rams 9-7 in week two, and they got booed. This was when the Rams were in the middle of their stretch of being one of the two/three worst teams in the league.
I remember Steve Largent was one of the last, if not the last player to wear that old fashioned two bar face mask. I can't think of any player, or at least any famous player, who wore a 2-bar facemask past the 90s
Great vid & breakdown, once again. Another hidden & bizarre gem in NFL history.
FWIW - there's no such word as "undoubtably". (9:00) The word is "undoubtedly".
Wow. I think the team should've unretired the number 12.
Those fans don't deserve that honor after this display.
After 2020 I'm just done with the people of Seatlle altogether.
“The last time Scott Norwood missed a 47 Field Goal wide right … on a game on ABC.” 🤣😂🤣☠️💀☠️
Excellent video.
This was a hard game to watch... 8 years old, and p+ssed off watching this happen. It makes sense, but still... Steve was dealing with the bad situation of what Kingdome turf did to an OL and RB/FB groups running ground chuck offense, especially during the later seasons of the 1980's... DK is expected to do seven step drops and hit SL on routes that took time to develop
Curt Warner's career obliterated.
@@matthewdaley746 1984 was such a weird year... Warner's entire potential was cut in half by that devastating turf, but suddenly we see how awesome Seattle had been building a roster that could withstand some adversity... Just not enough gas in the tank to make Super Bowl 19 an epic matchup between SEA First version of the LOB vs Joe Cool and the West Coast OFF or SEA vs the (healthy) Bears (SEA punked the Bears in 1984, in an unusual game).
@@insertcolorfulmetaphor8520 Most-unfortunate, NFL, name, period.
7:08 I see what you did there
9:09 This unofficial JG9 historian will remind everyone you made a video about how Jim Ringo quit the Bills at halftime of that 1977 Bills-Seahawks game.
It’s hard for me to keep track, have I welcomed you to the faculty lounge yet?
(JG mode on)
The Bills would never have a bizarre halftime retirement again...............
The one thing this reminds me of in my own experience is when I went to a Detroit Red Wings game when goalie Chris Osgood was on 399 wins for his career....and they ended up losing in overtime! No situation where the fans were booing the Wings there, but still, it would have been so cool to be there when a guy from your home team makes a milestone like that! The Joe Louis Arena would have gone nuts if he got the win there.
I remember a Titans vs Dolphins game in 2017 where Jay Cutler played one of his worst games of the season and the Dolphins somehow managed to win 12-10
Fans booed them off the field afterwards with how ugly of a win that actually was
I hate to be one of "those guys" but the score was 16-10. Just sayin'. Miami did lose the 2016 opener to the Seahawks 12-10.
@@DolFan316 Oh don’t worry thanks
Yeah it was 5 years ago all I remember is the Titans had 10 and Miami won by like one possession
I laughed when he said "maybe they're booing because they want to see the backup QB come into the game"....there was a joke that was going around among Detroit fans for a while that said the two most popular people in Detroit were the backup QB for the Lions and the backup goalie for the Red Wings! (though, to be fair, you didn't see that as much when Stafford was on the Lions!)
Another unusual time fans booed a winning team was when the Lions took a knee or two inside the 10 yard line to run the clock out. It seems Ford Field had a promotion where everyone in the stadium would get a free pizza if the Lions scored more than 30 points. But they ran out the clock a few points short to get the freebie.
To keep them from getting the freebie, you mean?
I was at the game in Seattle when Rafael Palmeiro got his 3000th hit. The Seattle pitcher got booed for not throwing Palmeiro something good to hit his first couple times up. Fans were screaming to just throw him something over the plate so he can get his hit. I must admit that I myself wanted to see it in person. He got a hit later on in the game and the crowd went wild. I remember thinking how cool it was being at a game were a historic hit took place, but also how weird it was how the hometeam pitcher was horribly booed. Then like a week later Palmeiro was suspended for PED use and the whole thing just made me shake my head.
I like when Palmiero pointed at congress all holier than thou. Lmao. What a jerk. He would've probably been fine if he owned up to it like Giambi.
@@christopherengel7436 *HA!!! PREACH AWN, BRUTHA!!!* Not even a baseball fan and I remember that fiasco.
@@DolFan316 Yeah, no, Jason Giambi, only confessed, after, retirement, during his career, he, "apologized," much the same way, Mark McGwire, did, because, of a real, possibility, of his contract being voided.
I would love for you to do stories like this with other sports like baseball and basketball!
That's the next step in the expansion plan. Eventually want to get a baseball channel up and running, although the main JG9 channel will always be football
Steve Largent was a beast. They hype receivers up these days like there weren't any before them, but a guy like him and Brian Brennan, WRs that you knew when a score or first down was needed, just throw it to them and it was a done deal. Glad he got that record, but he needs to be talked about a lot more when top receivers are mentioned.
I was at last CFL Baltimore Stallions home playoff game against San Antonio. At that time, it was a done deal that the original Browns were headed to Baltimore dropping attendance. When they announced the crowd around 20000 they booed. Probably because they were kicked to the Curb
during an nfl players strike tony dorsett of the cowboys was critical of randy white for crossing the picket line . dorsett soon enough not only crossed the picket line but scored a touchdown in texas stadium and it was booed by the home fans
Fun Fact: NFL TRIVIA EVERY WEDNESDAY NIGHT ON TWITCH!!!! Test YOUR football KNOWLEDGE and win CASH PRIZES NOW!!!! ANOTHER fun FACT: The Seattle Seahawks are WAY BELOW a 39.6 and should just SPIKE the football into the ground on EVERY single OFFENSIVE play!!!!
You did a vid on week seven of 2021 as the worst Sunday in league history, think you need to do one for week 14 of '89 as best one (or one of them), you had:
"YOU DON'T LIVE IN CLEVELAND!!!!!" (Largent gets #100),
Bounty Bowl II
"The Stand" (Directed by Parcells, produced by Belichick, starring Big Blue)
Fun fact:
The next year, Bruce Smith had a career high in sacks for a season with 19.
However, the Seahawks played the Chiefs in the game where Derrick Thomas had 7 sacks.
Thomas would finish with 20 and lead the league.
Bruce Smith would never go on to lead the league in sacks for a season (on top of 0-4 in Super Bowls), and played 4 seasons in Washington to avoid finishing #2 on the career sack list to Reggie White.
You can’t make this stuff up.
*with the Redskins
@@9mmtrilla Here, take my like 😊
To this day, it's amazing at how many fans truly believe that they are smarter than head coaches......NFL coaches who have often taken teams into the playoffs.
1st, I rank Steve Largent as the 5th best receiver in NFL History behind only Rice, Moss, Megatron, and Owens in that order. Largent had the best hands in NFL history and was the second best route runner behind only Jerry Rice and was the best ever at diving catches. I also rank Largent as the best Seahawks player of all time with Walter Jones being 2.
In this case, Knox was right and the fans were wrong. You play to win the game. Hello! You play to win the game! If you can end a game with a win by taking a knee, you do it 11 out of 10 times. If you pass there and the Bills get a strip sack or interception, not only do they get another chance, but the strip sack or interception could even be taken to the house. Yeah, you take a knee there. Though I'm glad Largent eventually got his 100 in the next game. When this video started, I thought it was going to be something along the lines of the that the fans would get some kind of free food or drink if the Seahawks scored 20 points or something like that.
As for the Bills, 1989 was the year of the "Bickering Bills" and Smerlas would be a 49er in 1990. As far as Super Bowl 25, it's both too bad for the Bills that Super Bowl 25 came after Smerlas and before Ted Washington and too bad for the Bills they didn't have Christie yet. Had the Bills had Smerlas or Washington to clog up the middle in this game, O.J. Anderson doesn't have a 100+ yard rushing game and the Giants don't hold the ball for 40+ minutes. Even as is though, if they just had Christie...... Christie would've made that kick. Scott Norwood cost Bruce Smith the ring he should've gotten.
Yeah, no, the Giants, totally, hoodwinked the Bills, allowing them to run, and, they fell, for, it, the players, Threw Scott Norwood Under The Bus, until, The Four Falls Of Buffalo, which doesn't excuse their behavior, at all, the kicker's the scapegoat, plus, Bruce Smith only got, a, Safety, not, a, TD, and, celebrated, rather, classlessly.
Only two teams scored fewer points from '89-92 than the Seahawks. No wonder alternative music caught on so well there at that time.
I got to see the game where Largent got the 100. It was great.
One reason I think Largent was the best is he got to that number with less than stellar QB's though Dave K. wasn't all that bad for the most part.
And one thing that really made Largent stand out is he never had to wear "sticky gloves" and that is something that Rice and a few others where using. Largent wasn't fast,or tall but he could fake just about everyone out and get open and he was just a natural gifted player.
"Or maybe the Fans are booing because.... it's Philadelphia."
You said that this was the last time that Scott Norwood would miss a 47 yard field goal Wide Right in a game televised by ABC. Super Bowl XXV was televised by ABC.
Um, new here?
@@mgb4692 ya he’s new.
4-8 Oh yeah
I remember Almost Live’s skit with Pat Cashman. One of my favorite comedians ever
In the 80's it was Largent and Art Monk.
I was gonna guess that maybe they would've rather ended up with a better draft pick. But that wouldn't have really mattered. Seattle made a trade involving New England and received the third pick of the 1990 draft, which they used to select HOFer Cortez Kennedy. The first and second picks were Jeff George (Colts) and Blair Thomas (Jets), while the Patriots drafted Chris Singleton, each of whom could be considered a bust or mostly ok at best
Still not as bad as the Colts somehow finagling the *FIRST TWO PICKS* of the entire '92 draft and completely blowing it. The '90-92 drafts were awful as a whole.
Draft just infamously weak.
@@DolFan316 Plus, jettisoning Marshall Faulk.
Great video, but the wave's origins are here in Seattle. We did it every game, often multiple times back then, the more exciting the game, the more likely you were to see it. That's just our culture.
At a time when the franchise wins were few and far between, we at least loved our heroes....to a fault.
Damn Norwood missed that fg just like he did in the Superbowl from 46 yards out and wide right DE ja vu.
That Norwood shot hurt...
7:07 you really wanted to roast the Bills Mafia with that one.
Honestly I would've thought the fans were over/under betting on the final score and since Seattle was going for the easy win they were all gonna lose money.
The Seahawks were in the AFC West in 1989 not the NFC West.
5:09 If Seahawks fans thought that was bad, they just needed to wait 3 years. Also, I STILL have no idea how the '89 Steelers made the playoffs. The only other team who shocked me more by doing so is the '08 Chargers.
Trash Division, which, meant, they, also, host, (and, beat), a Colts team they, likely, lose, to, were, the Game still in Indianapolis.
What's odd about that is the game they got wrecked by the Giants, when they went back three years later they actually got in the endzone (the only time in a SIX-GAME RUN they did), of course the G-Men were clearly in post-Parcells sufferage.
BTW, the game before that six game horrorshow? the Dolphins coming back to beat the Hawks at the Dome in week four.
@@mgb4692 Notoriously closed last Game.
"Why would a fan base do this?".
Cuz it's Seattle fans.
Love the videos. But let’s cool it on the ads. Way too many interruptions. Like 4/5 times this video.
NFL’s call on those, not mine unfortunately
John Harbaugh would have called a pass 😂
Just give Largent the damn ball!
If Largent had played for a better team...
You play to win the game!! That was Herman Edward's saying wasn't it?(
Fun fact about the Buffalo Bills team that year they were called the bickering bills nice wide right joke Superbowl XXV air on ABC
Scott Norwood 😂😂😂
I was there.
When did the Seahawks switch to the nfc
2002 as part of the Texans joining the league/expansion
Oddly enough, in 1976, they actually started out in the NFC, before switching to the AFC in 1977
7:21 No one except the *Redskins* 3 games later, that is!
Only in Seattle Oh I get it they played below expectations and now they want to beat Buffalo OK now I get it and they also declined to go for some lame record now I really get it.
Booing your team for winning. The original Philly Special
Eagle fans never boo their teams for winning. When they boo their teams it's for good reason.
@@Rockhound6165 Not quite. In 1968, Eagles were terrible, but fans at least had the silver lining of being in a position to draft OJ Simpson. Then the Eagles won 2 of their last 3 games, losing the 1st overall pick. Culminated in Eagles fans also booing Santa in the last game of the season. So yeah, Eagles fans have booed their team for winning
@@TheSpartanWin why are you people still on the snowballs at Santa thing. Get a clue as to why this pissed the fans off. A little research goes a long way and besides, THAT WAS OVER 50 FUCKING YEARS AGO. Jeeze, other people's children.
I get it. The Seahawks having a lousy season and had a chance to throw it to Largent so he could get his 100 at Seattle and on Monday Night Football. I dont blame Knox and you know Seattle they protect victory just ask Marshall Lynch
He's only there, so, he wouldn't get fined, and, after, their classlessness following their, "win," against the Packers, they didn't deserve to, win, period.
🛑🛑 Seattle Fans Booing Easily Explained…..
It’s The Crazies That Live On The Left Coast. Example…Summer Of Love. 🤷♂️💯
My managerial side fully understand Chuck Knox's decision, yet my rabid fan side says they should have gone for it!! Never was a Seahawks fan but you knew when watching them play that Largent was a cut above, same as with Jerry Rice.
Chuck Knox made the correct decision...you play to win the game.
True but I think The Seattle faithful want Steve Largent to break Don Hutson 99 Touchdowns at home and not on the road. I think that is the real reason why they booed.
The bills lost their next 2 games after this game, before shutting out the jets 37-0 to win the afc east
Yes, kids, there, was, actually, a time when the Patriots didn't just, win, The, AFC East, simply, by showing up.
@@matthewdaley746 More like, there was a time when the Patriots didn't get an autobye to the AFC title game just by showing up.
@@DolFan316 Glorious era, no question.
@@matthewdaley746 no no brothers. The glorious era was the early 90s. The patriots went 1-15 in 1990, and 2-14 in 1992. They called hugh millen "good"
@@Fireyninjadog Predates my viewing, unfortunately.
Lance Alworth was better just to name a few but not to slight him in any way.
Also, A, First-Ballot, Election.
People just don't understand Seattle Fans, Smartest fanbase in the NFL lol. Largent even back then didn't get the respect he deserved outside of Seattle, to small and to slow was always what they said. Largent incapsulated everything it meant to be a Seahawks fan. The Seahawks and their fans were Over looked, forgotten and belittled but there was pure unbridled passion when it comes to their team and when it came to Largent .. Yeah you were messing with the wrong guy even if you were the Seahawks HC they would Boo you as Largent was THE MAN.
Only people who’s saying largent was the 2nd best wr is seahawk fans honestly… Steve was nice but second greatest war of all time nah can’t put ‘‘em there
#knoxwasright
Do a video about every nfl teams next retired number
This is an interesting reaction for Seahawks fans
Yes lighting the coach on fire for *not* throwing in the fourth quarter near the goal line.
As Vince Lombardi would say, what in the hell's going on out there?
This unofficial Official Jaguar Gator 9 historian will remind everyone you made a video about how Terrell Owens ripped 49ers Coach Steve Mariucci for going into victory formation late in a win.
Typical bandwagon 12 man behavior that was rampant during the 2012 season only to die away nowadays after Russell Wilson stopped carrying that team
Horrific officiating involved, also.
Get to the effing point....
Those damned Philadelphia fans...oh, wait.
I was at this game
Not acceptable
