It was confidence, not arrogance, that put he Dallas Cowboys on the media firing line during their successful quest for a second consecutive Super Bowl victory. It was also typical Jimmy Johnson the unconventional coach who wrote his own rules, and took the Dallas Cowboys from worse to first in just four years.

The world of pro football is a game that is often seen but seldom heard. Indeed, the sights are sensational, but the sounds of the game are what truly reveal the intensity of the conflict. When the audio is combined with the visual of the NFL, the results reveal a world that fans have witnessed but few have ever heard or understood. A pioneer in wireless microphones and location sound for over 25 years, NFL Films has been specializing in uncovering what is being said on NFL gridirons, sidelines and in the stands of pro football. The results have been fascinating, informative, funny and highly entertaining.

A Sports Illustrated compilation video of the NFL's Hardest Hits.

Forty-five years ago, the Miami Dolphins splashed into the NFL when Joe Auer returned the franchise’s opening kick-off 95 yards for a touchdown. It was the beginning of a historic journey encompassing some of the game’s legendary players, and the greatest single season in NFL history. From their start as an AFL doormat, witness their meteoric rise as Hall of Fame head coach Don Shula led Bob Griese, Larry Csonka and the “no-name defense” of the ‘70s to two world championships and the only undefeated season in pro football history. Later teams included “Killer B’s” defense of the ‘80s, record-setting quarterback Dan Marino and defensive powerhouses Jason Taylor and Zach Thomas. This film will grant you access to over four hours of extraordinary game highlights, behind-the-scenes footage, player and coach interviews, sound wires and more. Join NFL Films as they unfold a unique perspective on the living South Florida history that is the Miami Dolphins.

Hosted by Steve Sobol, this collection of football missteps is one of the last voice acting performances of Mel Blanc, and features a variety of mishaps from the NFL.

In early December 2011, the New York Giants were in deep trouble, staggered by a four-game losing streak that wiped out a 6-2 start and threatened to keep them out of postseason play. But a decisive win over the Cowboys earned the Giants a division crown on the final day of the season. Once in the playoffs, Big Blue took down the Falcons, Packers and 49ers to reach the Super Bowl for the second time under head coach Tom Coughlin. And in that rematch of Super Bowl XLII, the results were the same: Another Giant upset over the favored New England Patriots.

This collection of football follies comes from Sports Illustrated and was a subscription bonus for signing up to the magazine.
