In 2008 ESPN Films broadcast this special documentary on the 50th anniversary of "The Greatest Game Ever Played" as the Baltimore Colts beat the New York Giants in overtime 23-17.

The twist to this documentary presentation is that ESPN matched up 11 players from that 1958 game with players on the current Colts and Giants roster to discuss the game’s impact today.

Two former legendary broadcasters — Pat Summerall and Frank Gifford, the Giants’ kicker and running back in that game, respectively – are included, as is new Fox studio analyst (and former Giant) Michael Strahan.

Game play-by-play comes from two radio broadcasts: Joe Boland, who did it for NBC, and Bob Wolff, who did it on a syndicated network call.
