NFL Primetime: 1995 Week 6 (ESPN October 8th, 1995)

[@daleva187goligo]

that 95' season was crazy and very unique, just when you think you have it figured out it throws you a curveball, and it was like that all the way to the last week

[@yung824]

Those NFL primetime tracks set the mood every time and they always pick the right track for the right game completely legendary

[@brandoncoleman9955]

The 90s Primetime was so much better than the 2000s. More highlights and better content.

[@jasonwalker9091]

Charles Conner me too This was the last 2 times Warren Moon would face his old friends The Oilers (1995& 1997 as Tennessee oilers) His last time was when he became a Seahawks in 97.

[@Maxdouble07]

Me too bro! Tom so smooth with it. I miss watching these with my brother and dad in the 90’s. Great times🙏🏽

[@charlesconner9044]

@@Maxdouble07 bro I miss watching this show before Sunday night football on ESPN AND after SportsCenter. I loved getting out of school on a Monday turning on ESPN and voila Boomer and TJ for NFL Primetime one last time before Monday Night Football. I swear I miss my elementary school days man!!!

[@BenBrislawn]

@@charlesconner9044 Watching 90s NFL Primetime is better than watching NBC's current Football Night in America pregame show.

[@kevinburke6055]

Thank god I was a teenager at this time. I got to experience the truly last great era of NFL football. This show was the best I used to tape it.

[@jasonwalker9091]

Kevin Burke it's really was they was a lot of OT about 20 of them in the 1995 NFL season everybody was fighting for survival in 95. They was some memorable games on FOX and NBC 😊.

[@BarbaPamino]

By around 2005 it became obvious that the NFL was about to he the biggest joke in sports.

[@StFidjnr]

28:54 this was featured in nfl primetime montage before the 2000th highlight

[@roguegust8832]

Thanks so much for these. Keep em coming if you got em! 1995 was a fascinating season. A lot of storylines (Cleveland and Houston moving, expansion teams, the Lions 7 game win streak, the Raiders collapse, Rams hot start) a lot pf surprise playoff teams (Chiefs, Eagles, Colts), and teams that disappointed (Cardinals, Browns, Patriots).

[@jasonwalker9091]

RogueGust Steelers went on a 8 game winning streak, Falcons got in the playoffs by beating the 49ers on Christmas Eve in Week 17. Vikings got eliminated by the Bengals ( Thanks to Doug Pelfrey GW FG). " The Snowball Game" In the Chargers vs Giants. 95-96 was the most exciting years of the NFL. ESPECIALLY if u had NFL Sunday Ticket in the mid 90's.

[@roguegust8832]

And don't forget the Panthers starting 0-5 but closing 7-4. A prelude to 96. Looked like the Bengals were on the rise too. Then 96 came.

[@jasonwalker9091]

RogueGust Carolina almost came close to be the 1st expansion team to go 8-8 but the Redskins stopped that in the Christmas Eve meeting at RFK 20-17.

[@jasonwalker9091]

Don Shula got 347 wins in his farewell year. The Houston Oilers fans show their anger at Bud Adams in the Week 16 game against the Jets. Isaac Bruce had a breakout year for the Rams. Carolina beat the former Super Bowl Champs 49ers in Candlestick Park. Randall Cunningham final year as an Philadelphia Eagle. Buddy Ryan final year going back to Philly as Arizona cardinals coach. New York Jets.....JUST END THE SEASON. Green Bay won the NFC North in 23 years by beating the Steelers in Week 17. 1st time People saw Future Hall of fame Terrell Davis as a Rookie. Glyn Milburn with 404 punt returning yards against Seattle in Week 15. And ladies and gentlemen....The "4th Down and Dumb" game Cowboys and Eagles where Barry Swizter went for it with Emmitt Smith and didn't get it costing the game. Man.....such an exciting season in 1995. Can't forget Herman Moore putting up big numbers in Motown. And the world got to see Steve Mcnair for the 1st time as a Oilers in Week 15.

[@roguegust8832]

I'm a diehard Eagle fan. This was the first full season I remember. What an intro to football it was.

[@BenBrislawn]

I ordered ESPN+ just to watch this show and it was well worth it. That said, the song "Out Front" played during the Philly Washington game is the best of all time. I wish they didn't retire it so many years ago.

[@reverend_wintondupree]

As much as I liked it as a theme used a single game's highlights, loved it even more when used for the "fastest three minutes".

[@benbrislawn4029]

The Washington Philly game looked really entertaining. Also, the theme is the GOAT of all Primetime songs. Period. It is a shame they haven't used it for so many years. They should bring it back for the ESPN+ show.

[@gluserty]

I love most NFL Primetime instrumentals, but I'm currently really into the one that's playing during the Steelers/Jaguars highlights (an instrumental I always associate with the Lions/Bills 1991 week 17 highlight; that 1991 Lions team, they played their hearts out, and I still think that win was their finest regular season moment since the merger). Hey, anyone have some of these instrumentals pop up in their head while doing regular life stuff? It's very motivating for me. Lunatic!

[@ProjectInsight44]

Gelman by John Colby, one of the more obscure and underrated Primetime songs

@@ProjectInsight44 Wow, I never knew the actual title of that particular instrumental (or any PrimeTime instrumental, really, but it would sound good to learn more:-). Thanks for the info!

[@BenBrislawn]

Out Front by Rick Baker. That is the GOAT of NFL Primetime themes. It is played during the Washington Philly highlights.

[@gluserty]

@@BenBrislawn I feel that's a very strong theme as well (one of the first that stuck in my head when I began viewing Primetime), although I'm biased, as I love pretty much every theme.

man, that trick play the raiders did was brilliant, the one where the tight end pretends to fall while going for a block, quickly gets back up and runs to the endzone wide open, I've never seen that play before, why don't we ever see it now? I understand trick plays are gimmicky and you have to use them very sparingly, but I haven't seen that one at all, you would think some team would do it at least once every 5 years or so, someone please correct me if I'm wrong if you've seen it and tell me which team did it and when, I would like to know

[@roguegust8832]

That Eagle/Redskin game was insane, and it really sent the Eagles on their way that year. We were an unremarkable team, we weren't the most talented, but for those first two seasons (95-96) Rhodes got the most out of them. Once the talent level dipped and his hard nosed style wore thin late in 96 it was a rapid decline in 97-98.

[@jasonwalker9091]

RogueGust 1997 1998 was a nightmare especially when Ricky Watters left for Seattle in 98. And the Seahawks came to Philly on opening day and shutout the Eagles with Warren Moon.

[@roguegust8832]

The very mention of the 1998 Eagles gives me awful flashbacks.........Also lost Jon Gruden after 97, god Dana Bible was a disaster.

[@Skazellino]

Moon to Carter!

[@jasonwalker9091]

Skazellino That combination was dangerous in 94 and 95. Putting up receiving and passing yards topping them into the Hall of Fame.

[@chrisuncleahmad789]

Do you have week 14 1995 (Washington's shocking sweep of Dallas, KC-Raiders)?

[@gluserty]

The 1995 Dolphins were never the same after losing this game to the Colts, and neither were the Colts; finally Indianapolis had a team they could root for unabashedly (yeah, I know there was the 1987 division winning team, but that was a strike year, and those years are always kind of funny, and that Colts team was over and out in the playoffs).

[@gluserty]

I was a fan, but in retrospect I think it's a bit amazing that the 1995 Cowboys won the Super Bowl: their roster top heavy and thin, while their head coach was overmatched (I like Barry Switzer, but pro football wasn't his game. He stayed out of the way though, so that was the only thing to do). Also, there were distractions galore off the field with partying and suspensions, a total soap opera atmosphere (the L.A. Lakers of the early 2000's were like this as well). It demonstrates how great the Cowboys' front-line players were to (barely, and even that was a struggle) win Super Bowl XXX (fittingly, a Super Bowl with "XXX" as Roman numerals).

[@chrispirone8105]

18:58 That hit by Bruce Smith would be so illegal in today's game that it would cost a game and emptying of the pocket book.You can't use the crown of the helmet for tackling or hitting the QB.As far as Smith being off-sides I would sayno cause Smith is a Superstar at that point so he gets the benefit of the doubt.

[@TheDeadlyYears]

Yeah, these modern day QBs wouldn’t know WTF to do if they were actually facing defenses that could hit hard and low. Defenses that could blitz without any hesitation of a flag. And then throw at receivers who were covered much better. They say Patty Mahomes is the Michael Jordan of the NFL. MJ took harder hits in shorts and a tank.

[@kevinburke6055]

I think the panthers were 7 9 that year their expansion year so they finished the year 7 and 4 after that 0 5 start.

[@chrisuncleahmad789]

Roosevelt...... POTTS

[@foleynj86]

Unfortunately the Giants didn't salvage their season. They want 3-7 in their last 10 games and ended up 5-11. Interestingly enough, those mid-90s Giants were better than the last five years the Giants who have been an absolute dumpster 🔥.

[@leifopstad2972]

Didn't Dilfer have just, what, 4 touchdowns and 17 picks for the entire year in 95?

[@reverend_wintondupree]

18 picks and sacked 47 times

[@jasonwalker9091]

Warren Moon beat his old team the Oilers in Minnesota in OT. A rivalry is born as the Steelers face off with the Jacksonville for the 1st time and Mark Brunell takes them to School. The Buccaneers gets in 1st place as they beat the Bengals. Dan Marino set a record in passing but wasn't enough to beat Jim Harbaugh and the Colts in Miami in a late game in OT. Boomer Esiason, Andre Reed, Jim Kelly get wounded but Thurman Thomas come through in the end to beat the Jets. Carolina come up short in Chi-town. The Pope blessings touched the Meadowlands as Dave Brown Jesse Armstead run pass Buddy Ryan and the Cards in OT. The Raiders give Seahawks hell in Oakland. Barry Sanders makes hamburger out of the Browns in the Sliverdome with a big day all around. Deion Sanders wasn't playing, Michael Irvin Troy, Emmitt Smith " The Triplets" pick apart the Packers. Redskins and Eagles go at each other throats in a Shootout in Philadelphia at the Vet which it's settle in OT. Good week in Week 6 in 95'. Nothing Like NFL Sunday Ticket back in the 90's along with Primetime.
