Three of the players in this game went on to coach as head coaches in the NFL. They were Jim Lee Howell (Giants), George Wilson (Lions) and Ray "Scooter" McLean (Packers). Also, another player, Hank Soar, went on to become an American League umpire.
What an incredible game! What a treat, to have extensive highlights of a 1940s (their best decade) Bears game. Apparently most of the plays from scrimmage appear to have been shown. But none of the Giants touchdowns is shown; I wonder why? The best athlete on the field, certainly no disappointment after his great first two seasons, 1940 and 1941, and then his stint serving in World War II, was George McAfee (no 5) of the Bears. He really was comparable as a halfback to Willie Galimore and Gale Sayers. In this game, McAfee does everything well, multiple times: intercepts, tackles, runs back punts or kickoffs, rushes with the ball, catches the ball, and blocks in pass protection. It was probably too rough a game back then, with all the penalties and injuries. Of course, Jim Lee Howell is shown and mentioned, as a Giants player, he to become their head coach for many years in the 1950s, with Vince Lombardi and Tom Landry as his offensive and defensive coordinators for much of that time. But also, Don McCafferty is mentioned on the Giants defense, in particular, coming in as a replacement it sounded like, at some point in the 2nd half. This was his only season as a pro football player, but he became an assistant coach for several teams, over many years, and finally he became the head coach of the Baltimore Colts from 1970-1972, and so won Super Bowl V with them. Then he became head coach of the Detroit Lions in 1973, before dying from a heart attack ahead of the 1974 season.
It would be a treat to see modern players wearing the primitive wearing primitive equipment and poor conditions of this era. Many of these players were hard men and veterans of WW2 who had experienced the horror of combat.
Your right Mike, they really liked playing a boy's game while they still could. The sad thing is when they got older almost all had CTE !! The great running back for the Bears in this game, George Mc Afee Died in a home for Altimers, because when nobody was looking he drank cleaning fluid by mistake ! What a sad ending for a great athlete. The human brain can only take so much pounding !
@@jimhardy7673 Many more CTE and related cases after the switch to hard shell helmets and shoulder pads. Leather helmets were not used for tackling, for example.
Yeah you don't see any spearing in this game. But back in the early 1900s I think, Pres. Roosevelt threatened to ban football unless rules changes were made because too many players were dying from football-related injuries.
Filchock of the Giants is accused of not reporting a fixing scheme before the game and they still let him play. It's looks really suspicious how he fumbled the ball away on his very first carry and throws 4 interceptions in the 1st half and 6 in total.
Filchock confessed to getting the offer (after lying to the Mayor). Merle Mapes was offered a bribe too. None of the eye-witness accounts at the time even after the story came out, thought either was on the take. Because receivers could get mugged back then, timing passes were impossible, so interceptions were more common, especially against this ferocious Bear defense. They mostly got in trouble by lying so often about it that it looked even more suspicious than it was.
@@seangoodwin3046 In watching a number of the NFL games from this era, it looks like the QB's were willing to put the ball up for grabs a lot more than they are now. In their defense, the ball was fatter, making it more difficult to throw as hard or as accurately but the game as a whole was a much more primitive one back then and you see multiple interceptions resulting from weak throws coming off the QB's back foot. Though nowhere near the skill & athleticism of today's game, the play of that era is still very entertaining.
Between 1946 and 1963, George S. Halas and the Chicago Bears were between NFL World Championships. 17 years. The New York Giants know all too well what it feels like to wait 17 years for a Title. 1990 - 2007.
Watch the Giants offensive play that begins at 16:28. it's an end run that gains about 3 or 4 yards, but look at the tackle by George Wilson of the Bears. His right hand covers the entire face of the Giant ball carrier and slams him down. Obviously, that tackle would be a penalty and likely ejection in today's NFL, but back then? Just another tackle.
Interesting note to this game - It was learned a day before the game that Giants QB Frank Filchock and RB Merle Hapes were offered big bucks to shave points and keep the game a 10 point spread. Filchok was allowed to play, but not Hapes. Filchok was found not to have accepted money, but was suspended like a Black Sox and never returned to NFL as a player. BTW, the Giants lost by 10.
Filchock went on to play in Canada from 1947 to 1949. He applied for reinstatement in 1950 and Bert Bell accepted him back. The Giants were not interested in the now 33 year old QB, he finished out the year with the Baltimore Colts and retired. Merle Hapes wound up also playing in Canada, and never played in the NFL again.
Yes he played his heart out and no one really believed that he took the bribe. But before confessing, he lied about it a few times, including personally to the Mayor of New York.
Giants using their quarterback on special teams as a kick returner! Boy that wouldn't happen today! Can you imagine Brady or Mahomes having to return kicks and punts. Some head coach would be hung by his heels.
A QB doing punt returns is a reason I highly respected Joe Theismann's early career with the Washington _Redskins._ Prior to him getting the starting nod for QB, he wanted a way to contribute to the team with field play. In nine games that Joe played in 1974, he returned 15 punts.
Rosters back then were probably about 20 players or so. A lot of guys played both ways, did double duty, etc. because the roster numbers just weren't there
@@bloqk16that's what I liked about old Joe a true Heisman winner, no ego team first , will help the team anyway he can he returned kicks, punts, held for field goals, held clipboard on sidelines until he got his chance behind veterans Kilmer and jerguson
I've noted before that Dick Butkus was the greatest Chicago Bear of all time. But...Sid Luckman has to be no. 1. He iced this game with his two final scores. The run in for the TD and the FG kick to put it away...both in the 4th Quarter. That man had ice-water in his veins for sure.
Interesting. The rules for being down by contact were different back then. You were allowed to get up and keep running until the other teams stopped you.
@MyVeryHappyDay you could adjust the vibrations with a little white know, it cost about $7-10 more to get the toy players already painted, I remember painting mind You got a track of white and yellow toy men I painted mine, the yellow I gave a red paint representing Redskins and the white I gave dark blue for the Bears.
$2,000 for the winners doesn't sound like much, but when the average annual salary was $2,600 and a home cost $5,000 in '46, that's pretty good for a day's pay.
"He was injured on the play. Looks like his shoulder. He may have separated it. " nonchalantly speaking of a separated shoulder. Another time someone may have had a concussion. Amazing how little they talked about injuries back then
What a fascinating game. Giants with their four top ball carriers and punters out of the game. Two Cheap shots from the Bears wiped them out on D and O. Not to mention the gambling allegations and the Giant QB who was under suspicion only threw 6 interceptions A bizarre and brutal game.
$2k in 1947 = $23.7k in 2021. (The game was played two weeks before the end of 1946 so I put 1947 into the inflation calculator app.) Each member of Bucs got $150k for the 2021 Superbowl. The 1947 $3.5k bribe is 2021 $41.5k. Neither QB could pass very well. Some of those interceptions were inexcusable.
Only two divisions and ten teams. They played 11 games each, and the two top teams played in the championship game. Giants didn't have a lot of luck going 4-11 in championship games. They've done much better later, going 4-1 in Super Bowls.
I was trying to figure out why the Giants were in a spread out short punt formation as their main offense. Seems like they should be in a tight single wing only using the spread Short Punt on certain plays and situations.
Teams were moving away from the Single-Wing toward the Split T at this time after the Bears wiped out Washington with it and Stanford did the same in the Rose Bowl. This was Steve Owen's version of the Split T, that he called the A formation (because it was the first of a list) which looks like a split between the Split T and Fielding Yost's old Short Punt formation (today think the Pistol). Steve also invented the Umbrella defense which eventually became the 4-3.
Most of the players did at that time. The 46 Bears had a roster of only 36 players, and even the big names on the team (Sid Luckman, George McAfee, Bulldog Turner, Bill Osmanski, Ken Kavanaugh) all played both ways. Platooning came in during the 50's and by the early 60's, Chuck Bednarik of the Philadelphia Eagles was the last of the two-way players.
Interceptions were as commonplace as TD passes back then through the 1960's. Sid Luckman, the Bears' quarterback here and a Hall of Famer, had 137 lifetime TD passes and 132 lifetime interceptions. And Joe Namath, another HOFer, had lots more picks than TD passes.
@@ChildOfThe1970s All true but I've noticed quarterback passing wasn't as accurate either. The ball was a bit rounder then and more difficult to grip making passing more problematic. Today's quarterbacks are just more athletic too.
Actually baseball has changed quite a bit but most of the changes are bad. The big change is probably the DH. Relievers became more prevalent over the years and to the extent that in today's game, it's a rarity if a starter goes past 7 innings. There's the ghost runner on second in extra innings. There have been all the shifts though at least they will be going away 2023. Baseball is in a lot of trouble and those running the sport know it. There are a lot more problems than what I mentioned and the sport has become unwatchable today for many long time fans.
Watch the guards playing off the line (to pull?!). QB's punting on 3rd & long as an alternative. Wow. Interestingly, although the players have gotten stronger and faster, the refs aren't any better.
Punt on third down because there is no one back. This is why Sammy Baugh had huge punting numbers. He would quick kick on third down and the ball would roll twenty extra yards. Eventually teams had to keep a guy back just in case and this loosened up the line. This was how Fielding Yost got his point a minute - using a similar short punt formation forever pinning teams inside their five.
At 8:25, the narrator mentions 6ft 6in Jim Lee Howell . The future Giants coach who had Vince Lombardi as his offensive coach and Tom Landry as his defensive coach . Handsome Frank Gifford played for him . Allie Sherman , in time become one his assistant coaches before himself becoming Giants coach .
how great is it to watch a great pro football game where the players just played the game. NO celebrations, or dancing or individual demonstrations. Those days unfortunately are gone.
@@rhythmjones - Hey Mike your comment is not relative to my stating I enjoyed the game without the childish celebrations. I loved watching football not individuals grandstanding. Comprendo?? Maybe you were answering someone else’s comment.
If I'd been Hapes, I would've been angry. I would've confronted Filchock and said, "I tell the truth and I don't get to play! You lie, and it was all for nothing because we lost!"
Let's see - no face masks, old/older fashioned offense, goalposts on goal line, dirt, slow game, both teams in dark jerseys with no names on back, seemed to be a shortage of lime to line field with, straight on kickers, quarterbacks with funny numbers, no sliding for qbs, pitiful passing game, no blonde sideline reporters, players exhausted from too few TV timeouts, Tom Brady not in the game, back judge did not have a hat on, 5 defensive linemen, had to hold runner down on the ground, no yellow line for TV, hot dogs 5 cents at concession stand, 10 cents with relish, KO from 40/no fair catch, nobody worried about concussions, no medical tent, qb not mic'd up. Other than that the game remains the same.
These guys are playing on mud that todays professionals would not recognize. They don't have the modern pads that mean you can really pound someone without hurting yourself. The solid helmet was introduced because of an epidemic of broken noses, it is also the reason why players get brain injuries!
These slow guys hardly trained, didn't take PED's and were poorly paid, but they were way tougher than now. How long would Kyler Murray's speed last having to play Defense, not that he could handle any position. Many players today can't stay healthy at one position, let alone going two ways. Sam Bradford has made a fortune, while sitting out injured most seasons.

The hard luck Giants played in 10 NFL Championship games in a 24 year period from 1939 to 1963 but managed to win only once in 1956

(The intro does go and on)
I was trying to figure out why the Giants were in a spread out short punt formation as their main offense.
Seems like they should be in a tight single wing only using the spread Short Punt on certain plays and situations.
A-formation
Teams were moving away from the Single-Wing toward the Split T at this time after the Bears wiped out Washington with it and Stanford did the same in the Rose Bowl. This was Steve Owen's version of the Split T, that he called the A formation (because it was the first of a list) which looks like a split between the Split T and Fielding Yost's old Short Punt formation (today think the Pistol). Steve also invented the Umbrella defense which eventually became the 4-3.
Had no idea Ed Sprinkle played both sides of the ball.
Most of the players did at that time. The 46 Bears had a roster of only 36 players, and even the big names on the team (Sid Luckman, George McAfee, Bulldog Turner, Bill Osmanski, Ken Kavanaugh) all played both ways. Platooning came in during the 50's and by the early 60's, Chuck Bednarik of the Philadelphia Eagles was the last of the two-way players.
Wow! Some form of Single Wing vs the T ...
Giants vs Bears IV, The 1946 NFL World Championship Game.
Seems like interceptions galore. Tacklers often head hunting.
Interceptions were as commonplace as TD passes back then through the 1960's. Sid Luckman, the Bears' quarterback here and a Hall of Famer, had 137 lifetime TD passes and 132 lifetime interceptions. And Joe Namath, another HOFer, had lots more picks than TD passes.
Because back then many more passes went downfield and pass interference rules were much different allowing DBs to control WRs more.

Before 1985, the last Bears world championship ring was 1963
I guess they weren't much without Halas
@@JDMatthias true before his death in 83 he was responsible for hiring certain coaches and drafting players like Payton to eventually win in 85
@@JDMatthias I think Halas was a great coach and deserves more love then he typically gets in coach rankings.
Were these guys slower and awkward playing ball compared to today’s players? Or was it the flimsy helmets that made them that way?
These guys are playing on mud that todays professionals would not recognize. They don't have the modern pads that mean you can really pound someone without hurting yourself.
The solid helmet was introduced because of an epidemic of broken noses, it is also the reason why players get brain injuries!
Grogery 1 thanks. Makes sense.
These slow guys hardly trained, didn't take PED's and were poorly paid, but they were way tougher than now. How long would Kyler Murray's speed last having to play Defense, not that he could handle any position. Many players today can't stay healthy at one position, let alone going two ways. Sam Bradford has made a fortune, while sitting out injured most seasons.
Well said Alfredo !!
I agree Grogery !!
Polo Grounds. Better for football than baseball.
