In this CBS preview of the upcoming 1979 NFL season…..Irv Cross provides insight into the upcoming 1979 NFL season by covering QB Archie Manning and the New Orleans Saints…..then comes a piece on Oilers running back Earl Campbell…..followed by an inside look at the defending Super Bowl Champion Pittsburgh Steelers….and finishes with a look at Seattle Seahawks young QB Jim Zorn.
I find that programs like these specials put together by the major sports networks that televise the NFL to be extremely enjoyable because they give this lil ole chiweenie Sportsphile kind of a refresher course on what the “state of the union” was during the start of upcoming NFL seasons….which helps me fill in the blanks and remember events, plays and players who were significant during the time of their preview.
