Had to share. I ran across this the other day, I'll never forget watching this live on TV in 79. Best blocking OL to play the game and a RB that could block when he wasn't carrying the ball

They look small to me.

By today's standards, they were tiny. Probably at least 40 lbs lighter on average than a modern NFL OL.

Russ Grimm and Mark May (both all-pros/Hogs) played at Pitt. Jimbo Covert (Chicago Bears) and Jim Sweeney (NY Jets) both all pros as well were also on the O-line at Pitt at the same time with May and Grimm when Dan Marino was QB. Pitt was 42-5 in those 4 years!
