Nope, it's all free to view! They have some other interesting stuff uploaded as well, but the game films are certainly the gold.

Thanks. Was being sneaky and trying to view it at work. No joy. Got home and my goodness. This is great stuff.

I had to bump this thread. First time I've run across it and it's just great stuff.

Hoping to watch this footage soon. I personally believe Weeb was the best pro coach ever, certainly the most underrated. Would love to own a vintage 1963 Jets Helmet with the Jet Airplane decal ...

this one says 1949 Browns v Bills https://livestream.com/profootballhof/e ... /172193914

Lions v Browns? I can see Lions on the scoreboard and #22 QB which would be Layne. I think the #16 QB is Ratterman? I couldn't find a matching boxcore. Was this a pre season game in the 1950s?

Yeah, that game's mislabeled. It's the Det-Clev ex game from Sept 15, 1956. Lions won, 31-14. The keys are No. 56 for the Lions, Joe Schmidt, playing his first season at MLB and No. 15, rookie Jerry Reichow, at QB (along with Gilmer and Layne).

Some of the other games are mislabeled, as well.

Thank you...wow...I didn't know about this either....this is fantastic.
