2004, Great times. NFL 2k5 was out and everyone was at peace
And mvp baseball 2005!
I remember that Raider roster was pretty good in August, then trying to play them online with the updated roster was impossible to play with since all their good players were retired or released/traded, you couldn't just move them from the back of the roster to start the way I could with all the giants injured players
Yeah now look at where we are now not perfect but it's 2022
@@cirovelasquez153 War eagle
No they were not lmao.
Zoomer moment
Titans defense was awful in 2004
In a 3-week stretch, they allowed 51 to the Colts, 49 to the Chiefs, and 40 to the Raiders. And then they followed that up by having Jake Plummer completely torch them on Christmas for 37 points
And Billy Volek in those first two games had 918 yards, 8 TD’s, and just 1 INT, yet he still took 2 L’s!
For like 2 weeks the guy basically looked like one of the greatest QB’s who ever lived, and that was never seen again for the rest of his career.
Ironically they had like 4 pro bowl caliber players on that D too lmfao
Haynes worth, bullock, rolle, van den Bosch?
Who is Jake Plummer. I mean like I know a lot off I unknown players but like
Both teams defenses took the day off in this game.
*Season
@@TheJohnold for real
Raiders defense still on vacation
Phil Collins. What a qb
For the Raiders, they took the day off and have been gone ever since. 17 years in counting. We're waiting for a defense, Raiders.
Billy Volek - 40/60, 492 Yards, 4 TD, 1 INT, 1 Rush TD
Kerry Collins - 21/37, 371 Yards, 5 TD, 1 INT
I like how Kerry made the Pro Bowl four years later
@@ajburrr with the titans too lol
I had Volek in fantasy this year. He was nuts.
Damn near 900 passing yards that game.. I wonder if they ran the ball at all lol
@@samgunz1 61 total rush yards for the Titans and 57 total for the Raiders
Nowadays Volek probably would’ve signed a $80mil dollar contract after this game lmfao
Couldn't agree with you more 😂😂 because of what "the market" drives. Lol that's how kirk cousins no confidence having ass got paid. I as a Washington fan don't miss him under center 🤣🤣
@@bbryant9455 I’d take him over Haskins any day of my life. Btw, I’m a Washington fan too
@@thetoptige8014 yeah you have a point there. Haskins has no work ethic
@@bbryant9455 so you don’t like that
@@thetoptige8014 go ahead, say it, Rrreee...
For some perspective on what Drew Bennett did over this three-game stretch, he had 8 touchdowns. Entering the 2004 season, he only had 7 career touchdowns. He surpassed that total in three weeks
I remember this fondly - I was in high school and had Drew on my fantasy team for the 2nd and 3rd week of that run.
@@torrey88 Derrick mason was so underrated as well. He blossomed more when he later went to Baltimore tho
Those 3 games made him a deadly ass target in one of the old Maddens I used to play I wanna say like ‘06 lol
I like how “quiet speed” translates into “Fast white guy”
Lol I thought the exact same thing when I heard that
These CBS commentators are awful, it's hilarious. Bennett makes an amazing catch for a TD and they're stunned silent. Terrible.
@@darthrevan6 Right???
Same as “sneaky athletic”
What they say more than anything is "quick"
Wes Welker sure is "quick"
Julian Edelman "quick"
Watched Wes Welkers football life documentary and as they were talking about how "he's not the fastest guy, but he sure is quick" they're showing highlights of him returning punts and kick offs for touchdowns outrunning everyone on the field.
It blows my mind that Kerry Collins is actually top 20 all time in terms of career passing yards… The guy was never considered very good but he could really air it out on a given Sunday
Penn State
Kerry Collins also holds the record for fewest passing yards in a game with -7 against the Patriots in the 59-0 game of 2009
@@johnny__topside he also had like 10 drops that game too, rewatched the whole thing to see how bad it really was
Kerry Collins also had a slow release.
Kerry Collins or Danny kannel, can't remember since they're the same person beat the 13-0 1998 broncos
Thanks for posting. Billy Volek's 2004 season is one of my favorite guilty pleasures. Put up big passing yardage against bad defenses, and Drew Bennett had a senzu bean for like 3 weeks. At the time, I actually thought Volek had a good year filling in for McNair, but he ranked just 21st in both DYAR and DVOA. Still cool to see even it wasn't that great once contextualized. BTW, you should consider spotlighting the 1994 week 4 shootout between the Dolphins/Vikings. Marino and Moon. It's a game where both HOF quarterbacks went off, Vikings almost gave up a 28-0 lead at home, but held on. No one ever seems to talk about that game strangely.
Former chargers back up in that 2007 playoff run and had game winning drive I wanna say lmao
Both the Titans and Raiders, who once ruled the AFC just two years before this, degenerated into last place teams within their own divisions by this season.
Bro, the titans won their division.
@@jqwiiiiqqirmnsnnsnnsnnsmjjrj I’m talking about these teams in 2004…
in 2004, 3 of the 4 teams that mae the Championship game (TEN, OAK and the eventual SB winner TB), finished last in their division in 2004.
@@bowlchamps37 the Raiders unfortunately fell off the hardest out of those 3 teams. Couldn’t finish to a record of .500 until 2010, and didn’t make the playoffs until 2016
Not quite like the 2002 afc championship on nfl channel btw
Jerry Porter was another Underrated wr. Looking back he was a star in the making during their last SB appearance season then he kept playing well for some years but never truly became the star most thought he'd become
Derrick mason actually had the best overall career out of all the receivers in that game. At least a candidate for the hof but somehow is severely overlooked it’s crazy
He was a head case that let the fame go to his head.
Bad attitude
He never did squat.
There is a reason Collins was in the NFC championship game with the Panthers, the Super Bowl with the Giants and had a long career as a backup who had playing time on the back end.
He had a gun and solid accuracy. He just wasn't a field general.
I mean, he was good but I wouldn't say having 12 more touchdowns than interceptions as accurate imo.
@@wholesomecomment45 - Accuracy is ball placement, not a measurement of how many interceptions he threw.
Interceptions come from many factors.
Tipped balls, dropped balls, poor effort by receivers, great athletic plays by defenders, defenders film study and baiting the QB into a decision, and just flat out making bad decisions. None of that has to do with putting the ball on target when and where it is supposed to be.
Bad accuracy is over throwing, under throwing, missing wide, etc.
Dan Marino had games where every pass hit his WRs in the hands, but he didn't complete 100% of his passes because of drops. Did that make him less accurate? No. Stat lines tell you the truth, but they don't tell the whole story.
He was also a huge drunk in his early years lol homie was a bottle general 🤣 his liquid courage got him in hot water with the Panthers when he called Muhsin Muhammad the n word. When they asked why he said he thought he could because he heard his teammates say it all the time so he thought it was cool for him to 🤣🤣
He wasn't consistently good at reading defenses like the greats of that era, but he also never had all pro offensive lines like the Rams, Patriots, Packers, and Colts did. He had an OK offensive line in 2000 that fell apart in 2001, then a pretty good one in 2002 that waa picked apart by injuries and free agency in 2003. The Raiders also had a garbage offensive line by this point with guys like Lincoln Kennedy retiring. You give him a good offensive line with the 2008 Titans and he passed all over that Ravens defense in the playoffs, until he had a fumbled snap from the backup center and fumbles by Crumpler and White, missed field goals.
I think that was the difference when comparing him to the upper levels of QBs, the Peytons and the Bradys rarely ever make that one dumb play per game that you would get with Collins a lot of the time.
Kerry Collins had moments of brilliance like this and had a great, great arm. He also had concrete feet and suffered from Drew Bledsoe syndrome (needs a lot of time in a perfectly clean pocket). He was also super inconsistent, if you look at his year to year performance, you'd see years like this where he balled out, or that one year with the Giants or that one year with the Titans, followed by other years/games where he'd play like straight up dog shit.
At first glance at the thumbnail I thought it was Rich Gannon vs Steve McNair lmao
Shoutout Kerry Collins took my Giants to Super Bowl 35
Do u have eyesight problem? Gannon wear 12 that no 5 in thumbnail is crystal clear, and how can u mistaken mcnair to a white dude?
@@ozamatazbuckshank7467 do you understand what " first glance " is ? As in a peripheral? Meaning I quickly scrolled past it, and didn't focus in on it ? NFL Throwback was smart enough to get it. lmao go back to school and grow a brain 🤡
@@ozamatazbuckshank7467 and people aren't " white " like clouds and chalk lmao. You need help 😂
You would be correct that I have not heard of this duel, nice find!
I saw you in Tom Grossi streams
Drew Bennett had a 3-game stretch including this game where he had 28 receptions for 517 yards and 8 touchdowns
Might be the greatest 3-game stretch by a receiver ever, and it came from a guy who did next to nothing before and after
He was a good player for those 2 years prior to be fair but yes after this insane season he did nothing
That's pretty remarkable, and you might be right about the best 3 game stretch ever. Off the top of my head I'm wondering if Wes Chandler in the 1982 season had a similar three game stretch, but I can't think of anyone else that would come close to what Bennett did with yards/TDs.
Linsanity
Imagine Drew Bennett playing that level for an entire season...
@@astrostar49 Derrick mason actually had the best career out of any of the receivers in this video by far he was so underrated lol
Seriously, just watching this as a Raiders fan makes me mad. We were playing an old Warren Sapp as a defensive end...that's why he had 1/2 sack all year going in to this game. I see scrubs like Travian Smith, Stuart Schweigert, Terdell aka "TURDell" Sands, Grant Irons...these were guys expected to be players. Aged guys like Sapp, Ray Buchanan, Ted Washington, Denard Walker...all over the hill. No wonder this defense was hot garbage. Nnamdi Asomugha wasn't quite ready, Charles Woodson was hurt, no pass rushing...just a poo poo platter of past their prime or not good enough on that defensive roster.
1/2 sacks going into week 15
2.5 sacks on the season
Guess Oakland eventually figured out that Warren Sapp is a DT
(Dude also had a 4.69 40 at 300 pounds, he was a BEAST)
Kerry throwing a ton of picks didn't help.
that was the bad ol days - that forced C-Wood away from us to the Packers. lot of draft picks came and went ... but 2010 was a turn around year briefly, then 2016 with Del Rio, and here we go hoping for a turn around 2021, after missing playoff in 2020. Sad ...
Nothing but bad memories whenever I see Norv Turner. I see his face and am immediately angry.
It was even worse when the next year, Kerry Collins had Moss and over threw his ass and wouldn't throw to him when he raised his hand. Fuck Collins
This game was only a Scorigami because of the safety at the end. This Raiders team should've finished better than 5-11.
I always loved watching Kerry Collins throw the ball. My friends always made fun of me for being such a big fan of his, but he was a fun QB to watch who, every now and then, would have virtuoso performances like this one lol
He was such a gun slinger. Him and tiki were fun to watch. Just hard to depend on Kerry.
@@duanebailey6253 he smoothed out most of his retard plays by 2002 when he had an offensive line that was worth something, same with the Titans in 2008. Honestly he was essentially Eli with a bigger arm and heavier feet, he was quite good in the playoffs outside of the super bowl. If the offensive line didn't fall apart in 2001 and 2003, had a few drops turned into interceptions not happened late in games, his numbers would have been a lot better. 5 TDs in a playoff game and another 4 with a drop in another game, 300 yards against the 2008 Ravens with the team fumbling inside the 20 twice and missing a field goal in a 3 point loss, etc
@@NYG5 yes he would do great and put up insane numbers one week. Than the next he would throw for under 200yards and 3 pics. All with one of the best rbs the giants ever had. Most hot and cold qb ever.
That connection between Volek and Bennett was a thing of beauty. (TN second score; beginning @ the 4:30 mark).
Both teams finished the season 5-11 so this was one destined to he a hidden gem
As a Giants fans I still got allot of love for Kerry Collins, I feel like if the Giants had won that SB in 2000 people would probably talk differently about him.
Heck, the Titans team he was on in 2008 when 13-3...blew a completely winnable game at home against Baltimore in the playoffs. I believe they would've hosted Pittsburgh for the AFC championship had they won.
Can't blame Collins for that animal of a Ravens defense. Even Jesus would've been defeated that night by that defense
@@manuginobilisbaldspot424 he was like a strong armed Alex Smith
Jerry Porter was a beast
So was Justin Fargas for a short time
He was average never had more than 600 yards
@@mrprom2500 incorrect he had 1 or 2 1000 yard seasons
@@mrprom2500 I didn’t mean an entire season but he had some good games. Eye test he was a good downhill runner. They threw alot too
@@mrprom2500 he had nearly 1,000 two years in a row.
0:49 - Teo Johnson. If you have Madden 04 on the PS2, go play as the Raiders with Johnson. While everyone remembers Vick from that game, Johnson was a hidden gem who could "rocket catch" down field.
Really my boyzzz thought i juiced him up he was so fast at TE
@@Mr.Burton17 - My buddy played as the Raiders and Johnson wore #5 out of the box. Let us just say that when my 49ers got Vernon Davis in real life a few years later, I reminded my buddy what he used to do to me with Teo.
Finally, the game which is the Titans record for most passing yards by a QB since the move to Tennessee
Love these old high scoring games from 10+ years ago. Keep em comin! :)
Especially 90s and this era when it's more appropriate to call it a throwback
Wow man, 2004 is already a long time ago now lol. Lots of forgotten names here. Feels weird
There a lot underrated dual
I don't watch the NFL but from watching this game clearly these must be two of the greatest quarterbacks of all time!!! 🎉🏈
Drew Bennett had the single season TD reception record for the Titans that year with 11, and AJ Brown finally tied the record in 2020. 2004 was certainly a special year for Bennett, and it is still amazing that he was an undrafted free agent when he became a Titan. I was flying from Nashville to Las Vegas for a convention when that game was being played, so I only saw the tail end of it. Amazing game, and a reason why Collins became the Titans QB 2 years later.
Lol Uncle Shannons highlights were on at the bottom. He was having a good game.
Madden 05 got me into following the NFL. Names like Volak and Drew Bennent are bringing back serious childhood vibes. Good memories
I never actually got to watch this game. I was working that day. Thanks for posting...even though I'm just now watching 17 years later.
My 3rd raider game I attended..thank you for this video 📹 😢
Oakland/CALIFORNIA Raiders forever.
love watching football from this era. Its when Madden was so good and I remember all these players.
This channel is very underrated
Didn't know Collins played for the Raiders
I didnt either
This duel was a fortunate consequence of 2 decent offenses playing 2 absolutely hot garbage defenses
Kerry Collins and Steve McNair both deserve to be in the Hall of Fame same thing with Drew Bledsoe
I remember watching the highlights to this game like 😳🤯🤩
Marcos Benavides- The same, here.
Great times!...
The db #25 made up for the PI call big time with that pick👀 love the content
IMAGINE THROWING FOR ALMOST 500 YARDS AND 4 TDS AND STILL LOSING
It happened to Marino in 86. He threw for 435 yards and six touchdowns and the Dolphins still lost to the Jets.
2013 Broncos vs Cowboys. One of my all time favorite games.
Tony Romo went 25/36, 506 Yards, 5 TDs and 1 INT
And Romo threw that INT in the last moment which gave the Broncos easy field position for game winning FG.
Brady did it in a SUPER BOWL lmaoo
I remember watching this game.
Great times!...
#NFL #OaklandRaiders #RaiderNation #JustWinBaby
Both of my favorite teams
A Billy Volek sighting!
Remember 2007 divisional him saving the chargers season beating the favored colts in their house in the last game ever in the rca dome
Whoever thought Kerry Collins and Billy Volek would fight head on in this contest? And those 2 QBs were nothing but pawns
So, neither of those "pawns" was a first round pick, who led their expansion franchise to a playoff berth? Nah. You're smart. You know all. The amount of stupidity in this comment section is overwhelming
I watched this game when it happened and was amazed
Wish I had a few of these guys in my starting lineup on my fantasy football team that week!
The fact that Collins did this to the titans not knowing he would play for them
You know that these teams weren’t that interesting if Jim Nantz, Dick Enberg, Kevin Harlan, Ian Eagle, Gus Johnson or Don Criqui weren’t calling it.
You get Bill Macatee and Steve Beuerlein instead
I guarantee this was billed to be a higher matchup given the Titans were always a legitimate team (they were 11-5 and won a playoff game the previous year) and the Raiders were two seasons removed from their super bowl appearance.
That duo did do a ton of Browns-Bengals games that turned out to be 51-48 slugfests!
@@lemmiwinks09 You're right, the one in 2007. In this year (2004) they called one game, and Beuerlein called the 58-48 game with Craig Bolerjack the same year, as well.
Bill macatee is the man he actually just retired from CBS, probably when he ealized he’s never getting that top Masters gig from nantz, who says he wants to host it until he has done 50 masters
You miss Greg Gumbel
Derrick mason might just be the most under appreciated receiver in history not to mention his returning skills. God he was overlooked wayyyy too much although he blossomed a lot more when he went to Baltimore the second part of his career.
Could you please do highlights of the 1987 Cardinals Buccaneers game where the Cards came back 28-3? I would really like to see that 🙂
It was the first ever 28-3 comeback which is why I'd like to see this
Oh I just saw a vid on that
@@jamman950 same so I hope NFL Throwback makes a video on it
Billy Volek will be known for 2 things:
Back to back 400 yard games and coming on in relief of Philip Rivers in the 2007 AFC Divisional at Indy vs the Colts.
I signed Billy Volek when my QB went down. He went and balled out of control the last half of the year. This game was my league semifinal. Exactly like Tannnehill two years ago. Both led me to fantasy championships.
Also what balls on that announcer "they were NOT supposed to be a good team this year" 😂😂😂😂 lmao
I never thought I'd hear Billy Volek's name again.
With Kerry Collins everyone talks about "muh super bowl" and then gloss over the big playoff performances that get overlooked by the team falling apart. 5 TDs against the Vikings, 4 TDs with a drop by Shockey against the 49ers, 300 yards against the 2008 Ravens when the team fumbled and missed kicked the game away. In every postseason he has no business being one and done in.
Despite the record of both teams coming in, this was a very good competitive game from start to finish
Did not know this until now. Both Billy Volek and Kerry Collins lit up the scoreboard that day.
Very observant.
Kerry Collins never gets any respect
Mason and Bennett was a under appreciated duel,only if injuries had not derailed McNair
Mason is criminally underrated and forgotten. A relatively recent player with 10k+ receiving yards no one talks about.
“Quiet speed” haha
Billy Volek vs Kerry Collins?
(guessing by thumbnail)
Hey NFL Throwback. Any chance of Chiefs vs Browns Week 1 2002?
That catch at 16:55 into watertight double coverage. 😵😵
Funny hearing Warren sapp talk about the raiders and Kerry Collins experience lmfao
Ayeee Titan Up.
Raider nation
What you talking about never heard of, Kerry Collins is probably my favorite Quarterback. I still have my nyg collins shirt. He had a canon and when he was on oh boy
Finally a Raiders Highlight that u can Proud Of!! Lol ☠️
My best friend is a titans fan... feel good about this year for him. I am a Eagles fan... not feeling the same
Kerry Collins was my first favorite player ever:)
This is a WR dual, Bennett vs Porter
Little did we know that Kerry Collins would be on the Titans roster just 2 yrs later.
Drew Bennett was a good #2 great #3 level player for 2 years and then had just a crazy 2004 just because he could and honestly because he was a tall white guy me being 14 I just looked at him saying " really? Him?"
Ah, I thought that might've been Billy Volek from the thumbnail. In the 2007 AFC Divisional Round against IND, he temporarily filled in for Philip Rivers after he sustained an injury.
As a Raiders fan, this Defense looks all too familiar. Hopefully Gus Bradley can turn it around. At least somewhat.
When I use to play my little cousin in Madden I would take out Steve Mcnair and play Billy Volek and tell him I wanted to atleast give him a chance and I didn't respect his game enough to play my best QB.
Both Quarterbacks Had Finally Met Their Match!
I remember this game lol. Didn’t Billy put up some crazy numbers like this a few times?
Billy V won me my first money fantasy league. Dude was straight 🔥
Forgot this was a stretch of 3 times in a row where the Titans gave up at least 40 points when playing in Oakland
2002 Week 4 they gave up 52
2002 AFC Championship Game gave up 41
2004 Week 15 gave up 40
They did meet up in the 2003 but that was in Nashville. This was a stretched where these two teams met up 6 times in a 5 year stretch from 2001-2005 that included once in the playoffs as I mentioned above.
Man Kerry Collins had a huge arm. Good professional
Life was so much better in those days
I remember this being the time of year that Drew Bennett went nuts and won people their Fantasy Championships.
As a long titans fan this was the start of a dark era.
For both teams really - both already declining but became terrible for years
There were names i haven't heard in awhile.
The video looks stretched, seeing as this does not appear to be HD broadcast, it should be in 4x3.
Holy shit Mr index card himself was the ref
I understood that reference lol
Calling a fake field goal on 4th and 1 from the 19 yard line with 6 minutes left in a game you’re losing by 7 points is Jeff Fisher in a nut shell. You know he had that play in his back pocket all season and was dying for a chance to bust it out in a big moment. He wanted to coach his way to a win instead of opting for the much, much higher percentage plays from his offense. Passing or throwing probably would’ve both gotten the one yard they needed but Jeff Fisher doesn’t do sure things. Jeff Fisher is vanilla all game every game until the situation calls for it.
Fitting the last points came on defense 🤣
I always thought Volek was one of the best backups in the game
Kerry Colins got the best release I ever seen
Drew Bennett was sooo under rated
Man I just knew Billy Volek was going to be the next franchise QB lol
Terry Porter was a good WR. Big strong and fast.
No matter how bad my raiders were, they sure kicked ass when they wanted to 🤣 great game! Titans QB had an ARM. Kerry amazes me how easy he made it look throwing the football. At times his release of the ball wasn't fast but he can throw it too.
0:11 G
Oh I've heard of it. I watched first hand as Billy Volek completely carved up my sorry Raiders defense for almost a 1/2 grand. This was the rare game in which the offense had enough to offset another terrible defensive performance. That's been a theme for the last 18 years...but for some reason, only Derek Carr is responsible for the last seven, not the unit allowing 26.5 ppg in that stretch of time. Shoutout Fresno State though...Volek is the forgotten bridge QB from Trent Dilfer to David Carr and then Derek Carr.
Wde
I pretty much just looked at the gametrax to see stats from players lol
