NFL's Greatest Games (1997 — 2016)

Ended

NFL's Greatest Games is a series of television programs that air on NFL Network, ESPN and related networks. They are condensed versions of some of the most famous games in the history of the National Football League, using footage and sound captured by NFL Films, as well as original interviews. Most installments are 90-minutes, but as recently as 2015, a 30-minute installment had aired. The series began with Super Bowl III, the New York Jets' 16-7 upset of the Baltimore Colts. ESPN debuted the program in 1999, on the 30th anniversary of the original game. More telecasts followed in the ensuing months. In 2007, NFL Network unveiled Super Bowl Classics, a version of this program using complete videotaped games. The "NFL's Greatest Games" banner is also occasionally used for episodes of the 1970s public television series The Way It Was that covered classic NFL games prior to 1958.
