==''The Blitz'' (2006β2016)== Following the re-tooling of ''NFL Primetime'', Chris Berman and Tom Jackson were given an extended segment of the Sunday night edition of ''[[SportsCenter]]'' (11 p.m. [[Eastern Time Zone (North America)|ET]]) called ''The Blitz''. The segment follows the same structure as the original version of ''NFL Primetime'', featuring Berman and Jackson using the same player nicknames, catch phrases, and back-and-forth banter as the original show. On January 8, 2007, Chris Berman and Tom Jackson returned to ''NFL Primetime'' to present highlights of the [[National Football League playoffs, 2006-07|2006 NFL Playoffs]] games between the [[2006 New York Jets season|New York Jets]] and the [[2007 New England Patriots season|New England Patriots]] and the [[2006 New York Giants season|New York Giants]] and the [[2006 Philadelphia Eagles season|Philadelphia Eagles]], and they remained for the entire postseason that followed. ESPN has not used the NFL name or logo in the official segment name or in [[advertising]], leading to unconfirmed rumors of not being given permission to do so by the league. In 2007, however, on-screen graphics surrounding the set has referred to both "The Blitz" and "NFL Blitz." [[Nike (company)|Nike]] sponsored the segments in both years in 2006 and '07; it was replaced by [[Old Spice]] in 2008.
