This is a really interesting video that I found on YouTube a while back. It's from a TV show in the late 80s with a young Michael Jordan interviewing Don Maynard(with Harry Kalas doing the voiceover).

Bills quarterback Jim Kelly throws three first-quarter interceptions.
He responds by throwing for a then-career high 392 yards, firing five touchdown strikes as Buffalo's K-Gun offense shreds the Bengals on MNF in Orchard Park, 35-16.
Fellow future Hall of Famer James Lofton snags 8 passes for a career-high 220 yards and two scores in the win.

Vikings wide receiver John Gilliam scores on a perfectly executed 44-yard reverse at The Met.

None other than legendary Hall of Fame quarterback Fran Tarkenton, of course.
