The 1958 Baltimore Colts: Profiles of the NFL's First Sudden Death Champions (Great Teams in Pro Football History) Kindle Edition

by George Bozeka (Editor) Format: Kindle Edition
4.6 out of 5 stars 13 ratings

The 1958 Baltimore Colts were one of the greatest teams ever in professional football. Owned by the controversial Carroll Rosenbloom and led by head coach Weeb Ewbank and six future Hall of Fame players--Johnny Unitas, Raymond Berry, Lenny Moore, Jim Parker, Art Donovan and Gino Marchetti--they won the NFL title that season, defeating the New York Giants in the first sudden death championship game in NFL history. The Colts laid the foundation for the ultra-popular spectacle football would become with the American public.

They were a talented group of players. Many had been rejected or underappreciated at various points in their careers though they were loved and respected by the blue collar fans of Baltimore. This book tells the complete story of the '58 Colts and the city's love affair with the team.

    As someone who was born in Baltimore, was a die-hard Colts fan and went on to spend much of my professional life talking about sports, I didn't think there was much I didn't know about the Colts. Turns out I learned quite a bit from this book. Highly recommend!
