      Madden gained fame in a decade-long stint as the coach of the renegade Oakland Raiders, making it to seven AFC title games and winning the Super Bowl following the 1976 season. The NFL said he died unexpectedly and did not detail a cause.http://apne.ws/2wvStBs

          Madden cast a lot of great games and a lot of great players but I'll always remember watching playoff games where Madden's hyperbole was matched by the greatness on the field: specifically Lawrence Taylor for the Giants, those were magic moments in sport.

          In the opener of LT's last season, he had obviously slowed up a bit and had been through a couple of injuries and other troubles. But he clinched a win against the Bears with a strip sack. Madden exclaimed, "Lawrence Taylor will NEVER be average!"

          RIP. He had a great knowledge of football. But what I liked was his thanksgiving turkey with its 4-8 turkey legs and giving them to players. He didn’t like to fly so he had this Kool bus he traveled in!
