Editing NFL Primetime (section)

===Early showing===
Originally, the first version aired two-and-a-half hours before ESPN's telecast of ''[[Monday Night Football]]'', normally 6{{nbsp}}p.m. [[Eastern Time]].  It was hosted by [[Stuart Scott]] along with analysts [[Ron Jaworski]] and [[Mike Ditka]] and aired from the site of the Monday night game preceding ''[[Monday Night Countdown]]''.  (The program broadcast from a [[parking lot]] set, in contrast to ''Monday Night Countdown'', which takes place inside the [[stadium]].  When the package began with two Monday night games on September 11, 2006, ''Primetime'' aired from [[McAfee Coliseum]] in [[Oakland, California]], while ''Countdown'' originated at [[FedExField]] in [[Landover, Maryland]]).

Due to low ratings (partially due to the repositioning of what was a Sunday evening staple), this early edition of ''NFL Primetime'' was relocated to the ESPN studios in [[Bristol, Connecticut]] every other week starting October 16.

In 2007, this show gained a new time slot, 4{{nbsp}}p.m. ET, switching with ''[[SportsCenter|SportsCenter Monday Kickoff]]'', all programs were moved to the Bristol studio, and the second version's hosts (see below) were also assigned to the earlier show.  Scott was sent to a new remote set used by ''[[Monday Night Countdown]]''.
