I need an endless supply of Chris Berman prime time episodes, full too. I could listen to his prime-time show forever. So many nostalgic memories from the espn music, Chris bermans voice and famous sayings, the video camera quality of the games, most important the game style it was during this time.

I remember my Dad picking me up from my summer job at 830pm and recapping what happened in the NFL that day. I will never forget him saying "The Cowboys look like they're going to be good this year". That's the last time Ive ever heard him say that. I'm from Buffalo and my boss took away my walkman listening to the Bills game that day.
@@RichV20 Yeah, I'm from the Western New York area (Angola) and worked at my uncle's car wash (in Hamburg) at the time. My schedule was 7:45 AM- 4:15 PM, but I had to work Sunday for both the 1997 & 1998 NFL Opening Day since so many people requested off. I was still able to follow those football weeks well enough, although finding a way to watch sports nowadays is super easy now.
Realistically it was probably the year before in the playoffs right before they played Carolina. After 95 their Oline never seemed dominant again and their defense fell off weekly it seemed. Haley and Deion were getting older and first overall pick Russell Maryland was a miss… or at least not a legit first overall pick. I know Deion was still great but he always seemed hesitant and a step slower when injuries started to accumulate.
The Oilers originally didn't plan on moving to Nashville until 1998, but when the city of Houston saw they had no hope of holding on to their NFL team, they basically evicted them a year earlier than expected and the Oilers scrambled for a home field until they could move into their stadium, settling on the Liberty Bowl stadium.
It was last time I watched Sunday Ticket in 97, I started watching it again in 2013. I miss 90's NFL hard hitting and no pussy ass cry babies.😊 This was the Final year of NFL Primetime of co hosting with Stuart Scott (RIP) After 97, it was only Chris and T.J.
rogerskolney Bill Parcells return to New York this time in Jets style. Mike Ditka returned to coaching after 4 years to the Saints. Dick Vermeil for the Rams and led them to the Super Bowl 2 years later. Jim Kelly started commentary for NBC.

The Cowboys season self destructed and misses the playoffs since 1990 and it was Barry Swizter final season as Head Coach. Warren Moon return to his hometown of Seattle at 44, he put up big numbers and made it to his 9th Pro Bowl . The Oilers say hello to Tennessee in the Liberty Bowl and Eddie George had a breakout game against the Raiders to have a surpurb season and made it to it 1st Pro Bowl. Barry Sanders made it to 2,000 rushing yards topping Eric Dickerson record on Christmas Eve . The Buccaneers made the playoffs for the 1st time since 1979. The Giants won the NFC North sweeping the Cowboys since their Super Bowl season in 90. Good year of 97' 😁😁. RIP Stuart Scott his 1st only year co hosting NFL Primertime.
I ranked him #5 on my list of most underrated players in NFL history. His prime was one of the best this league has ever seen. And nobody moved the chains better than Moore
@@johnharris750 you do when he didn’t get the proper recognition throughout his career. He was better than Michael Irvin from that same era and nobody even remembers his name cuz he played in Detroit
@@marcusmcgraw3519 True football fans remember Moore; if they don't then they're just being purposely ignorant. Calvin Johnson was a pass-catching action hero, but for greatness at the mere mortal level, Herman Moore is the other legendary Lions receiver.
NFL TOP 10 had an episode where they credited Johnson’s game against the Ravens as getting him the fat contract with the Bills that backfired when it became clear he was lazy, indifferent, and insincere
Pre-approved installations, PrimeTime music, and Northeast Ohio (where Colleen the Florida banquet bartender is from; gotta tell her about this ad!): sounds good, but these days I prefer seeing snow from a safe, non-temperature altering distance😁.
This is what most of us in the NFL Primetime Song community refer to as "oddball week" because of their attempt to overhaul the music. It was unsuccessful and they came back to their senses a week later.
Well, remember this was week 1 of an N.F.L. season & in 1997 there were 11 N.F.L. head coaches on new teams to begin that season. There was quality quarterbacks & quarterback play in 1997. Jeff George had 29 touchdown passes & only 9 interceptions in it. Cunningham was good. The tailbacks though were incredible including Eddie George who had 216 yards rushing in that week 1 game in 1997.
NFL truly despises the Raiders... 1996 - Week 1 @ Baltimore, then the next year @ Tennesee 1pm. 1997 was a year that was frustrating as Joe Bugel went 4-12 and George had great stats but we could not put together.
Why did anyone think Jeff George, never anything but a stuck up fuck incapable of sustaining competent play, was actually going to be good? George should have been gone from the league by this point not getting more chances
And in typical Bengals fashion they won six of their last eight; they changed quarterbacks and Esiason was able to retire winning four of his last five games
The NFL used to open on Labor Day weekend prior to 1999. Labor Day was early that year (9/1) and they didn’t want the Super Bowl in February (prior to 2002).
Jerry rice was injured in Week 1 missed most of the season came back against the Broncos in a MNF game. Terrell Owens in his 2nd year and J.J. Stokes stepped up in the WR slot.
only because of off field issues. dude was original beastmode. if he got his personal life together, he'd have records still standing today. Lawrence was fucked at birth though.
@@brian_keith Pretty messed up guy; I don't feel that football isn't even a factor when assessing Phillips, since his other issues were so monumental (like worrying if the bathroom toilet was flushed while watching the house on fire). I hope all of us still living manage to find or already have that inner peace which allows anger to dissipate and helps daily life go down easier.
The next game in the series, "NHL Breakaway 99", is one I played then and for years afterwards. Not the greatest game, but I had fun with it, as did my buddy Jose ( I was more concerned with being cool, smoking non-medical marijuana, and whatever spells women put on me to spend quality time gaming back then). If you want to see awkward graphics though, 1995 & '96 are the peak years for that, as 3D tech was still being figured out.
They tried to do an overhaul, but it failed and everything returned to normal the next week. They did still experiment with new music that season, but only 3 songs stuck around (Total News, Showdown, and one other that was an off and on song).
Stuart Scott is doing highlights of the greatest athletes in heaven now RIP Stu

Looked like a super bowl contender one week looked like the worst team in the league the next.

I'm convinced this game was what allowed Jacksonville to fleece Buffalo for Rob Johnson
I too am convinced of that; Jaguars turned Rob Johnson into Fred Taylor, exceptional move.

Damn. I guess I should've waited a few months to do Oddball Week-this video of Week 1 is way higher quality than the one I used.

Damn, some of these QB stats are atrocious.
It's because they let them play defense in the 90's.

Do you have 1997 weeks 13 (Dallas finally has to visit Lambeau) or week 15 (Indy shocks the Jets)?
As for the oddball music, at least they used a familiar one for the Oilers ;-).
Do you have any ESPN Sunday Night Football with Mike Patrick & Joe Theisman?
Berman with the one liners as always. Schultz "no ting"
Aaron "Beetle" Bailey
Sports reporting survived the internet for awhile. Social media, and twitter in particular, killed it.

My God there were a lot of terrible terrible quarterbacks starting Week 1 of the 1997 season...
Kind of weird seeing all these plays with no replay challenges. I keep expecting 2 see a red flag, lol
Hilarious that the bengals were talking playoffs given how bad they were in the 90s.....they lost their next 7 games after this highlight
And in typical Bengals fashion they won six of their last eight; they changed quarterbacks and Esiason was able to retire winning four of his last five games
Tennessee Oilers!
40:08 ... Deion concussed, nearly broken in half on this play
OUCH
THROW HIM THE DAMN BALL!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Can we upload week 1-17 of the 1997 season
Good thing the Chargers were horrible in 1997. They wouldn't have gotten the chance to draft Ryan Leaf! 😋🤣

And Rice reinjured his knee in that very same game and was gone for the postseason.
19:04 probably the best play in Ernie Conwell's career.
Probably not, conwell went on to win superbowl in stlouis in 99, with many other great plays to come.
