@@sickboy8914the greatest RB in franchise history. The successful Hasselbeck , Holmgren and Alexander era gets overlooked by the Russ-Pete Carrol and LOB!
The year 2000 was the year of the running back Edgerrin James, Robert Smith, Eddie George, Mike Anderson, Corey Dillon, Fred Taylor, Jamal Lewis, Marshall Faulk, Jerome Bettis, Stephen Davis, Ricky Watters, Curtis Martin, Emmitt Smith, etc. 23 players finished with 1,000 rushing yards
@Matthew Henninger-Vonada and no Steve Hutchinson yet when him and Walter Jones was the side he usually ran to and this was when the seahawks still had Rickey Watters lol another forgotten very good running back
While Ricky Williams was considered to be the heavy favorite to be the 1st running back selected in the 1999 NFL Draft, the Colts surprised just about everyone and took Edgerrin James 4th overall and it worked out tremendously.
Yes, I always loved to watch him run, he was so smooth and patient in reading and setting up his blocks. It's awesome that Edge an d Peyton will go in the hall of Fame at the same time!
@@bryanelam7431 ill never forget my first time watching him vs the ucla bruins who were playing for a a guaranteed bid in the national title vs tennessee that year if they had won and he literally ran for 300 yards and this was just before miami had Ken Dorsey when they went on that run of dominance in the early 2000s if anyone remembers
So much cool history here as a Seahawk fan. The end of these uniforms, Alexander's rookie year, Brock Huard, and playing at Husky Stadium while the new stadium was being built.
Seattle in its final years in the AFC, then the Houston Texans came and the Seahawks became an NFC team. Who would have thought that Peyton Manning would face the Seahawks in a Super Bowl? Moose Johnston’s (Kevin Harlan’s analyst) only year at CBS. He would join Fox next season. He’s still there.
Johnston was original their number 7 analyst on their depth chart (he would have only called games part-time) but he got promoted when Sam Wyche had to sit the season out.
@@michaelhawkins8474 That's what makes this so annoying, they didn't get a SB ring, Edgerrin James went to the Cardinals the year Peyton finally won the SB
This is not a stupid statement but do remember it took this trio 5 years to win a playoff game...cuz Manning is one of the greatest choke artists ever.
Hope to see 49ers vs. Cardinals from Week 5 of 2004 on this channel sometime, please! That game featured Fitz’s first NFL TD and a wild comeback by SF.
James is probably the most patient runner I've seen. Always looked like he took a lot of time to follow his blockers to the point where it would be hinderance, yet he would magically still glide upfield for yards. It was strange.
Don’t think you can see it (and hear it) in this footage, but there were a couple moments where the Seahawks offense got a bit disconcerted at the line of scrimmage because the crowd was reacting to the Mariners game. They were playing in Game 5 of the ALCS against the Yankees that day.
Shaun Alexander was such a great, reliable player. People never seemed to give Marvin Harrison enough recognition, but he's a top 5 WR all time in my book, hard-worker with spectacular work ethic, plus very soft hands. I miss those times, fewer cry babies and fewer entitled players.
Edgerrin is deservedly in the Hall but his numbers could have been greater had he not tore his ACL his third year. How many RBs in league history have been as dominant their first two seasons as he was?
That knee injury is so noticeable when you see how much more explosive he was before. A lot of the runs in this game would have been huge chunks if he was still as fast and agile
@@cormacdoyle2433 there’s plenty of teams with good qbs and wrs that have terrible running games. These Colts o-lines were never great and the Edge still showed out. Don’t disrespect the stud Edgerrin like that cmon
Man, those Seahawks units were so good. The ones they use today are not bad (except the green one 🤢), but are not as good as they used to be back in the 00's
3:56 literally textbook illegal block in open field no less and not called on the visiting team, lol. And then several plays later on third down and after forcing and incompletion, the funky penalty on the defense, continuing the Colts drive. Manning effect.
"The great quarterback class of a season ago" 1999 featured Tim Couch, Donovan McNabb, Akili Smith, and Daunte Culpepper. At least there was McNabb lolz
obviously there were a few years where they didn't play together but it feels awfully weird to see some Colts highlights without Peyton throwing to Reggie Wayne
Edge is so Underrated sadly today just like Frank Gore because has big as their numbers were they weren't the highlight reels as others were but they were unbelievable
Wow, you know it's old when you see Seattle playing on the Huskies' stadium. This was Seattle's final years as an AFC team. This was Shaun Alexander's rookie year too. He came close the year before with Alabama to win the orange bowl but lost to the Tom Brady led Michigan Wolverines.
Gawd, I cannot stand the Seahawks old Home uniforms. Back in 2001 I wrote their organization an email telling them to change these dreaded uniforms, and I got a response back telling me to wait. So for a month, I knew they were going to change their uniforms while very few others knew. Those 2002 uniforms were not super impressive, but their Home uniform was better than the old ones.
True, but most of the yards were tough ones well earned, lowering the shoulder and stumbling through tackles. The type of style the old-school backs respect
1. That was the softest 200 yd game all time. This is the reason I don't like P. Manning his teams were soft. 2. Did Chad Bratzke have a good game vs HOFer Walter Jones in QB lap alot. 3. Always going to have a soft spot for those Seattle uniforms Cortez Kennedy under rated legend.
"They give it to the rookie Shaun Alexander"
I was not prepared for that
Yes
Lets just say it would be given to him a lot more later on
@@sickboy8914the greatest RB in franchise history. The successful Hasselbeck , Holmgren and Alexander era gets overlooked by the Russ-Pete Carrol and LOB!
Your old Seahawks videos are my daily reminder of that old logo and the fact that they were once in the AFC, and I thank you for that.
The year 2000 was the year of the running back
Edgerrin James, Robert Smith, Eddie George, Mike Anderson, Corey Dillon, Fred Taylor, Jamal Lewis, Marshall Faulk, Jerome Bettis, Stephen Davis, Ricky Watters, Curtis Martin, Emmitt Smith, etc.
23 players finished with 1,000 rushing yards
Man what a list. My man was Fred Taylor, he gotta b one of the most underrated backs ever. Fred was a beast
Some tough running back then.
Compared to only 9 last year..
Don’t forget Ahman Green. Dude was mega underrated. Scored 10 TDs and rushed for over 1100 yards.
Broncos had a 1000 yard rusher with like 4 straight different guys lol
You know it's old when Shaun Alexander is a rookie

Shame he didn't end up winning the super bowl with them tho
@@thefateofslate9095 I still don’t know how they didn’t win one especially in 2005
Polian's two best decisions were choosing Payton Manning ahead of Ryan Leaf and the next year taking Edgerrin James ahead of Ricky Williams.

Don’t forget Edge also finished his career as a Seahawk
Manning, Harrison, and James during these times might have been the best QB/WR/RB trio in NFL history in my opinion.
0 rings won together, although they were fun to watch

@@holiday42020 Manning is *overrated* my guy!

I remember choosing either edgerrin James or Ricky Williams when I would play NFL Street. God damn I loved those video games....
Seattle SHOULD go back to these uniforms. I like them a lot better than what they have now
They finally got rid of the "one helmet rule" so hopefully we can wear that throwback again soon
Was a travesty they couldn't have at least brought them out as throwbacks for the 100th season
I didn't like these unis back them, I do now tho for some reason
James is probably the most patient runner I've seen. Always looked like he took a lot of time to follow his blockers to the point where it would be hinderance, yet he would magically still glide upfield for yards. It was strange.
That’s what made me a fan and of the Colts. I had never seen anything like it. Such a unique running style.
Look at Kevin Harlan, man. So inspirational.
Made my day with the Edge highlights, ty NFL throwback!!
Don’t think you can see it (and hear it) in this footage, but there were a couple moments where the Seahawks offense got a bit disconcerted at the line of scrimmage because the crowd was reacting to the Mariners game.

Jim Mora was a great headcoach. It's a shame his team's couldn't perform in the playoffs.
Playoffs?!!! Playoffs?!! Are you kidding me?
They were diddily poo
@@Terror832 In games they "Coulda, Woulda, Shoulda" won.
These are the kind of games that remind you why Edge is in the hall of fame
I use to love this damn nfl intro on Sundays.
I miss this era
I was at this game. Manning threw for 300, James ran for 200, and Harrison had 100. A great game for the Colts.
Thank you so much, NFL Throwback. The first time I see footage of that game. Keep with the great work!
Shaun Alexander was such a great, reliable player. People never seemed to give Marvin Harrison enough recognition, but he's a top 5 WR all time in my book, hard-worker with spectacular work ethic, plus very soft hands. I miss those times, fewer cry babies and fewer entitled players.
Daryll Jackson was such an underrated reciever! The Man from Dayton, Ohio!
Former Florida gator also I wanna say when Jesse palmer was qb and Rex Grossman
Former Florida Gator
Peyton Manning,Marvin Harrison and Edgerrin James on the Colts are Unstoppable 🧲🐎
I forgot how long James was playing damn i was too young to remember back then but wow
Was at this game with my Dad. My first NFL game at age 13. Never got to see them play in the Kingdome
U can tell this old when you hear the name Cornelius Bennett smh those were the dayz
Those old Seahawks uniforms scream retro
Also, I just noticed that they were playing at the Washington Huskies college stadium
Edgerrin James is 1 of the Unsung RBs. That Guy was very good.
The Seahawks’ first home preseason game in this season was the first NFL game ever played on FieldTurf.
The most shocking thing about this game is that Peyton actually allowed the Colts to run the ball this much 😨
Edgerrin is deservedly in the Hall but his numbers could have been greater had he not tore his ACL his third year. How many RBs in league history have been as dominant their first two seasons as he was?
That knee injury is so noticeable when you see how much more explosive he was before. A lot of the runs in this game would have been huge chunks if he was still as fast and agile
@@zachspath494 he tore his ACL the following year
Edgerrin James was a solid running back with Peyton Manning and the Colts
Who wouldn't be beside a hall of fame Qb and a Wr to put less emphasis on him
@@cormacdoyle2433 there’s plenty of teams with good qbs and wrs that have terrible running games. These Colts o-lines were never great and the Edge still showed out. Don’t disrespect the stud Edgerrin like that cmon
@@Hooper1254 But is he a pro football hall of famer yet?
Calling a HOF running back solid lol he was more than that
Pre-ACL tear Edge was godly.
The Edge was underrated
From this game you'd never know Huard was a huge flop. He looks like a franchise QB in this game.
James Went off in the game
The 12s didn’t start filling up the stadium until Russell Wilson arrived
James one if the best ever
Shaun Alexander vs Edgerrin James. What a good matchup for today's video. 😎
Thanks.👍
Edgerrin James Is The Greatest Running Back Of All Time In Sports History!
The Patriots might of been a Dynasty but outside of the Rams, the Colts we're the most exciting team to watch in the 00's
Peyton manning was such a fucking beast
imma bears fan but edgerrin james is still one of my favorite running backs 🥰
Man, those Seahawks units were so good. The ones they use today are not bad (except the green one 🤢), but are not as good as they used to be back in the 00's
3:56 literally textbook illegal block in open field no less and not called on the visiting team, lol. And then several plays later on third down and after forcing and incompletion, the funky penalty on the defense, continuing the Colts drive.
Manning effect.
That Colts Offense was absurd
Jay Bellamy was so underrated.
"The great quarterback class of a season ago" 1999 featured Tim Couch, Donovan McNabb, Akili Smith, and Daunte Culpepper. At least there was McNabb lolz
Yes
@0:53. Wow! Jeff Saturday had to be in his 20's.
This Colts offense was running like a well oiled machine. Surprised they didn’t get more rings.
obviously there were a few years where they didn't play together but it feels awfully weird to see some Colts highlights without Peyton throwing to Reggie Wayne
My Seahawks in the 90s are the Dallas Muleboys of now 8-8 all Decade Long. Lol
James had 38 carrires! That's insane lol.
Oh baby!
In 2009, Peyton Manning would lead the Colts to their last Super Bowl to date, and the Seahawks were coached by Jim Mora II.
Edge is so Underrated sadly today just like Frank Gore because has big as their numbers were they weren't the highlight reels as others were but they were unbelievable
Oh they were highlight reals he was way more explosive before the knee injury
Same with Curtis Martin big time numbers without many big time plays
Where can we find the colts vs jets week 1 year 2001?
21 Years Ago
Shaun Alexander though ❤️
What stadium are we in
Husky Stadium
Husky the hawks didn’t move into their current stadium until 2002
Wow, you know it's old when you see Seattle playing on the Huskies' stadium. This was Seattle's final years as an AFC team. This was Shaun Alexander's rookie year too. He came close the year before with Alabama to win the orange bowl but lost to the Tom Brady led Michigan Wolverines.
2001 was their last year
Husky Stadium years were rough for Seattle.
2000 yes. 2001 they were 9-7 and a Roland Williams drop away from going to the playoffs in their final AFC year, so not really
Jonathon Taylor now hold the colts record now
Gawd, I cannot stand the Seahawks old Home uniforms. Back in 2001 I wrote their organization an email telling them to change these dreaded uniforms, and I got a response back telling me to wait. So for a month, I knew they were going to change their uniforms while very few others knew. Those 2002 uniforms were not super impressive, but their Home uniform was better than the old ones.
Seahawks vs Colts
Afc West vs Afc East
Feels ...weird
Week 1 this year
Brady is a very accomplished quarterback and i respect him, but if i had to choose, give me the sheriff.
I always forget the Seahawks were at huskie stadium
In the period when the Kingdome was torn down and Seahawks Stadium (Now Lumen Field) was being built.
This game was at university of washington 😱 man the seahawks were unrecognizable before they built the Link or whatever its called lol
Qwest ➡️ Century Link ➡️ Lumen Field.
@@supakewlryan and just Seahawks Stadium before then!
Missed a 21 yard field goal
Shawn Alexander a rookie and Peyton Manning in his early prime
This was the least spectacular 200 yard game I've ever seen
True, but most of the yards were tough ones well earned, lowering the shoulder and stumbling through tackles. The type of style the old-school backs respect
To date, this remains the last win for the Colts at Seattle.
they've only played twice in Seattle since then 2005 and 2017
So how about we say the road team has not won in this series since realignment (four games), hence this being the last time it happened
Peyton would have more chips if they ran more
1. That was the softest 200 yd game all time. This is the reason I don't like P. Manning his teams were soft.
2. Did Chad Bratzke have a good game vs HOFer Walter Jones in QB lap alot.
3. Always going to have a soft spot for those Seattle uniforms Cortez Kennedy under rated legend.
Too bad he went ringless.
Tom Brady >>>>> Peyton Choke Artist Manning.
7>2.
Manning 3>2 Brady in playoff games
So this is just basically just watching Edgerrin James destroy the Seahawks.
No
Yes! True!
I think it is
Tom Brady #GoPackGo
So this is just not watching Edgerrin James destroy the Seahawks.
Go indy
that was dumb !
ricky waters was playing like shit
A seductive fake by Manning LOL
First
