You have to love this shot of Rod Martin — the look of victory after winning Super Bowl XV. Not only did the Raiders win that Super Bowl, Rod Martin recorded a Super Bowl record — 3 interceptions in one game! That record has stood for over 26 years. Read below to get a sneak peak into what Rod was thinking during the celebration.
“Looking up with arms stretched towards the top of the Super Dome, with 3 fingers in the air on both hands indicating my 3 interceptions to the area in which my family and my Silver & Black family were sitting amongst all those green & white fans saying “We are the World Champions & I have a Super Bowl Record!!!”. I was thinking about our psp theme song that year “Celebration” by Kool and the Gang, singing ‘Celebrate Good Times Come On” and we are going to party tonight!!!!!”
Rod Martin still holds the record for 3 interceptions in a Super Bowl. His 3 interceptions are not only a Super Bowl record but they also tied linebacker Chuck Howley’s record for career Super Bowl interceptions. Martin is the only one to record all 3 interceptions in one game.

All Raider fans remember “The Ghost”, Dave Casper. He played his college ball at Notre Dame and was drafted by the Raiders in 1974. In 2002 he was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame as the 13th Raider to be inducted.
Here is a memory from Casper from one of the most memorable games of his career, the 1977 AFC Divisional Playoffs vs the Baltimore Colts:
“A picture of me alone is rare. I was usually blocking or trying to catch passes and in a crowd. This is how I dressed for games, a helmet with no bar in front of my eyes. My nose bled often, I wore the same QB shoulder pads for 11 years and two smaller thigh pads. It was work, but fun, pain, but pleasure… when we won with Ken Stabler as QB, Madden as coach, and Fred B., Cliff, and our defense, we won often.”
