Colts: The Complete History is a tale of two cities. The first disc is a 65-minute history of the team in Baltimore, from its woeful start in the 1950s to the building of a powerhouse led by coach Weeb Ewbank, Alan Ameche, and ninth-round draft pick Johnny Unitas. They went on to the 1958 championship, later dubbed "the greatest game ever played," and were embraced by the blue-collar town. Later years included Super Bowl III under new coach Don Shula, the last-minute thrills of Super Bowl V, Joe Thomas's subsequent dismantling of the team that led to Unitas' final game in Baltimore, the dawning of the Bert Jones and Ted Marchibroda era, and, on March 28, 1984, the Mayflower vans that departed for Indianapolis. Among the interviewees are WR Raymond Berry, DT Art Donovan, DE Gino Marchetti, coach Don Shula, RB Lenny Moore, and executive Ernie Accorsi. Filling out disc 1 are 54 minutes of featurettes and an hourlong "Greatest Games" spotlight on the 1958 championship.

The 45-minute history on disc 2 focuses on the Colts' 1984 welcome to Indianapolis and the subsequent development of the team. Again starting with some lean years, the Colts traded for Eric Dickerson and drafted Jeff George, Steve Emtman, and Marshall Faulk. After a run to the 1995 AFC Championship game, the arrival of superstars Peyton Manning, Marvin Harrison, and Edgerrin James as well as coach Tony Dungy helped the Colts battle the Steelers in the January 2006 playoffs. Interviewees include Marchibroda, Jim Harbaugh, and Jim Irsay, the son of the team's late owner, Robert Irsay, but none of the current players. The 140 minutes of bonus features include the 2003 "Monday Night Miracle" when Dungy returned to Tampa Bay, the 2005 Game of the Week in which Manning and Harrison made history, an interview with Manning, and shorter pieces on coach Jim Mora (discussing his infamous meltdowns), and Dwight Freeney. --David Horiuchi

Jamaal D. King (Columbus Ohio)
this dvd is super great even tho i thought they should have shown more highlights in the manning era and more special features on disc2. but other than that this dvd is great. if they had waited one more year to release this dvd would have had our 06 superbowl highlights but its all good. i luv the highlights of johnny unitas raymond berry lenny moore and other greats. GO COLTS BABY


4 out of 5 stars Excellent History on a historic franchise   March 3, 2009
DW_Country (U.S.A.)
The Colts are not my team, but as a fan of NFL history in general, I really enjoyed this. The 1958 game, the 1995 season led by Jim "Comeback Kid" Harbaugh, and so much more span both of these discs. For a Colts fan it is a must have, but even for a fan of the NFL one will find a lot of great footage, and a lot of stories that bring back memories of past games no matter what your age is. The only downer to this set is that it was produced right before they won the Superbowl, so it is kind of bittersweet in the final few minutes of the 2nd disc how they speak of "trying to get back there" when in fact, they were just months away from reaching that very pinnacle. Excellently produced, this is one of the better NFL team documentaries I have seen.


5 out of 5 stars Baltimore's Team   November 29, 2008

Disk #1 is great! Worth the price even though the second disk comes as a bonus. If you were ever a true Baltimore Colts fan, you really need to own this DVD Set. It took 15 years to become a Colts fan again as I really enjoy watching Manning. Reminds me of the the days I spent biting my nails over what Johnny U was going to do next. The second disk was OK until they gave a hero's recognition to Irsay, honoring that fat drunken lush in their ring of fame. The best thing that man ever did was die and to honor him as some sort of savior was ludicrous. Disk #2 is a true bike reflector!

This item arrived quickly and in good condition. I bought this for the Baltimore section of the collection. A lot of great action and historical film. I have no interest in the Indy part.

I really enojoyed the history DVD, it was brief in some era's but still gave a pretty good draft of important events throughout the franchise.

Having Maddog throttling that fan that ran on to the field during the game, priceless!

I wish it had more content, hint....hint..
