The Blitz is an American television sports program which consists of scores and highlights of NFL games.
[citation needed] This program used two different formats, as shown below: When The Blitz debuted in 2005, it originally consisted of scores and highlights of NFL games around the country, along with analysis from Qadry Ismail, Mike Ditka, and Sean Salisbury.
The Blitz also had some non-football highlights (such as college basketball, the NBA, and the like) mixed in.
The program went off the air the week after the Super Bowl XL in 2006, and returned on September 10 of that same year.
This format has been discontinued as of September 2, 2007 as the network has reverted to its original Sunday programming lineup (ESPNEWS Day and ESPNEWS Early Evening) on February 10, 2008.
