The Colts great quarterback, Bert Jones

One minute in John "the voice of God" Facenda starts narrating.

When I was young, his was the voice I heard when I thought about football and this short video is a reminder that Bert Jones was another great one for the boys in blue.

What a year that was!! Bert and the Colts gave Colts fans a lot of great memories for 3 years running.....If only Bert hadn't gotten hurt.

I think that 1975 year made it on to NFL's top 10 turnaround seasons, as did the Colts 1999 season with PM.

I saw him play his first game against the Browns on a hot September day in Cleveland. I still remember a Browns fan sitting in back of me who said "He'll never be any good". I won't repeat what I said to him.

In retrospect, it's a good thing my friends are pretty big guys.

He was one of the all time greats. The O line stunk. Thats why Elway didnt come here.

With all the fanfare over Peyton Manning and Johnny U, he got lost in the shuffle and this was a great season who needed Elway anyway?

The Colts great Quarterback, Bert Jones, should have never had his number disparaged the way it was last season.

Ah, the good old days. Loved Bert and those Colts but was also a big respecter of Larry Csonka as well.

Notice no one was wearing a jersey or team gear in the stands......the NFL has found a cash cow in apparel. I wonder what that makes per year. I'm talking jerseys, flags, cups, coolers, hats, coats.....etc. I bet its alot. What a great run business.

You know what else is cool. Even if a team stinks sometimes half the country can see them. i think its great that every team gets some kind of showing.

Not like the other sport like NBA. If your not Boston, LA, Chicago, Miami your not getting on TV

I love the everything about the NFL

oh yeah! by far my favorite qb, he is the reason i became a colts fan. well that and that jerk pat fan that sat next to me in homeroom.

Jones to Carr. *sigh*

By the time Jones rolled around the regional broadcasts took over and i never saw any Colt games on TV here in Jersey, and it was a-way a-way before the internet.

Anyone remember getting the team roster in TV Guide for the weekend games?

Wish we were still in the East. Not the lackluster South.

Great memories! Thanks.

Bert Jones & Lydell Mitchell were my two favorite players when I was a teen. It's always irked me that the greatness of Bert Jones seems lost due to injury and time. He was the best QB in the league in his day and well on the path to the HOF. So sad that his destiny became knocked off track due to misfortune.
