Daily Madden: Remembering "The Spirit Of The Raiders"

Tuesday AM | 09/28/2010

John Madden's tribute to one of his favorite players, George Blanda, who died Monday at 83. Madden remembers Blanda as "the greatest clutch player," "the wise man," and an inspiration to middle-aged men everywhere. John recalls Blanda's role in the Raiders' incredible come-from-behind five game stretch in 1970, including the famous "guaranteed" Blanda-to-Wells TD. Plus, John's comments on the second-guessing of the Packers' strategy at the end of Monday Night's game against the Bears. (8:10)
