Reception

Script error: No such module "Video game reviews". NFL 97 received mostly poor reviews. Critics highly praised the play editor,[2][3][4][5][6] but criticized the player animations,[2][3][4][5][6] the camera,[2][3][5] and various aspects of the gameplay. Tom Ham elaborated in GameSpot: "For example, it's hard to distinguish who the receiver is, and the quarterback takes too long to hand the ball off. Even executing a kickoff was painful."[3] Next Generation found the most fault with the passing arc,[4] while GamePro focused on the limited number of player moves, and concluded that "with so many serious flaws, the game's just no fun to play."[5] Kraig Kujawa of Electronic Gaming Monthly simply said that "it hurts to play NFL '97."[2] Colin Ferris gave it a positive review in Game Revolution, citing the playbook editor, bigger player graphics, and control of passing arc.[6]
