S6 E4 • Cincinnati Bengals at Cleveland Browns, 1970

Paul Brown, the ex-Cleveland coach, returned to Municipal Stadium October 11 to start the new Battle of Ohio rivalry. Brown, now the Cincinnati coach, seemed at times to have the upper hand on his former team and his former student, coach Blanton Collier. But the Browns found a way to win, 30-27.

S6 E5 • Baltimore Colts at New York Jets, 1970

Revenge was the sweetest poison Baltimore could deliver on the Jets October 18. Not only did the Colts dominate the game, intercepting Joe Namath six times, but they also helped fracture a bone in Joe's wrist. It shelved Namath for the rest of the year. The Jets sank 29-22 and would not be a serious threat for a long time to come.

S6 E6 • St. Louis Cardinals at New York Giants, 1970

The Giants and Cardinals were in contention throughout 1970. But on October 25, a victory for the Giants meant regaining New York fan support. All things considered, Fran Tarkenton had a golden day. Even though St. Louis tried to come back, but the Giants were too far ahead, winning 35-17.

S6 E7 • Minnesota Vikings at Detroit Lions, 1970

Both the Vikings and Lions were 5-1 going into their first clash of the season November 1. Detroit seemed to have momentum early, but the bulk of the game would be all Minnesota. This 30-17 win was Minnesota's fifth straight over the Lions.

S6 E8 • Dallas Cowboys at New York Giants, 1970

If you want a reason for the uncertainties of the NFC East Division's first year, look no further than November 8, 1970. Despite their 5-2 start, the Cowboys were a shaky team with a sputtering offense. They faced a Giant team in rebirth. It would be the Big Blue players like running back Ron Johnson and kicker Pete Gogolak who would truly make the difference in the Giants 23-20 victory.

S6 E9 • Detroit Lions at Minnesota Vikings, 1970

The Lions had already lost to the Vikings two weeks before in Detroit. Now on November 15, with only one loss on the Viking log, Minnesota had to struggle. Detroit would not let go, but the final two minutes produced an all-too-familiar ending. Minnesota won (as it had been winning at home since Week 2 of the 1969 season). Detroit could not break free of the icy grip that was only half-finished.

S6 E10 • Pittsburgh Steelers at Cincinnati Bengals, 1970

New rivals in the AFC Central Division, Pittsburgh visited Riverfront Stadium for the first time November 22, 1970. And there was little the Steelers could do as Cincinnati powered to an overwhelming 34-7 triumph. Though the Bengals were still one game out of first place, they had the momentum to take the AFC Central title at season's end.

S6 E11 • Minnesota Vikings at New York Jets, 1970

With Joe Namath out of action, the Jets had relied for most of the year on Al Woodall at QB. Now, on November 29, he pulled his second upset in three weeks. The Vikings' ""Purple People Eaters"" were humbled 20-10 in Shea Stadium. It would be the last victory for the 1970 Jets.

The Cardinals had a chance to land the NFC East crown in 1970, but fell flat because they couldn't beat the Giants. In this rematch at Busch Stadium, New York had a much easier time than before, trouncing St. Louis 34-17 and bringing the NFC East Championship down to the final week.

S6 E14 • Los Angeles Rams at New York Giants; Houston Oilers at Dallas Cowboys, 1970

The NFC East Division's first tightest race came in the newly-realigned division's first year. Both the Giants and Cowboys, along with the St. Louis Cardinals, were in the race for one playoff berth. Dallas got it in record-breaking style, busting Houston for more than 50 points. As a consolation, New York's Ron Johnson became the Giants' first running back to rush for 1000 yards in a season.
