It’s hard to place one’s self back in time when all that’s left is grainy images and a video or two if lucky.
Recently, a incredibly clean video of a 1939 football game between the Brooklyn Dodgers and the Detroit Lions turned up, and not only is it bizarre to watch, seeing how the nuances of the game of football have changed is fascinating.

Imagine JJ Watt on the defensive line versus almost each and every player in this video that looks too small and white to even be a Patriots WR.
