(backs that got over 100 yards, and also Vince Young who got 79 yards on 9 carries.)

considering LT is 10 times the RB all of those guys are combined it wouldn't be out of the question to see him run for 300 yards and 5 scores if they ran the ball 30 to 35 times....

bolts will choke, I feel bad for LT - who deserves everything that comes his way, but chokenheimer's playoff record is abysmal, he is the peyton manning of coaches...he can't get it done....combine that with the chargers history of choking and you have one giant choke from the best team in the NFL. They look unstoppable though.

Ok Phillip Rivers in, Tom Brady out (of the pro-bowl). I'm not sure about this one. Tom Brady has lost his two top receivers and his O-line sucks. Rivers has LT to keep the big pressure off of him. I'm happy for Rivers, but shocked that Brady got left out. On a lighter note, TO didn't get in either! Yes I know he has 10 TD's, but he's a cancer to the NFL and got what he deserved- to be snubbed!

We used to have DirectTV but it really sucked when we have storms here in Florida in the summer.

i wrote the nfl an email about how tying an nfl fan to a TV delivery service that gets crummy during bad weather is ridiculous. why couldnt they make an nfl package that we could buy from whatever provider we have as an add-on?

jerks.

As an Eagles fan i am very proud of my team...they could have packed it in weeks ago. Andy Reid giving up the playcalling has been the biggest part of our turn around. If we stuck with the run all year like we have been, i really think we would have 10 or more wins right now, and a healthy Mcnabb. And i really hope Coughlin stays....

You can change the size of the text, that would work.

Example: He has 15 drops... 15...

You can get it from Comcast, and Cox.

I don't know about anything else.

so awesome... Favre could be playing in what might be his last home game as a packer and only 7 people are going to see the game, 2 of them are in this thread - NFL network rocks.

I originally signed up for Comcast, then Time Warner bought them in this area. Freaking crappy.

"For one thing, the league is paid big money -- close to $4 billion this year alone -- by CBS, FOX, NBC and ESPN for broadcast rights."

FOUR ****IN BILLION DOLLARS!

and yet they are suing comcast for carrying the nfl network charter & cablevision & time/warner are all not carrying the nfl cause they want too much money.

the nfl is too greedy.

they tie their full game package to a weather restricted service and then pull this nfl network crap.

jerks.


"The league wants the cable operators to offer the network on standard analog cable packages and not in special "tiered" packages, which cost users an additional fee. That type of programming is at the center of the lawsuit filed by the NFL against Comcast, the nation's largest cable company.

Comcast, which is available in the Portland area, offers the NFL Network on its "sports tier" service, which costs $5.99 a month, in addition to the digital classic package, which costs $57.11 a month, according to Theressa Davis, communications director for Comcast in Portland and Southwest Washington.

Cable operators say it's hard to justify paying the fee and hiking cable bills for a network whose viewership barely registers on the Nielson ratings outside of the eight games it will have broadcast by the end of the season.

"For the money that they're asking, they would have to be one of the top five cable networks for us to include it," Huff said. "Before the games started on Thanksgiving night, they weren't even a rated network." "

jerks again!

I'm a big packer fan...and that was just sloppy...we just can't finish our drives I guess...whatever...we still won anyways

nfl network blows...bryant gumble (or is it greg? I can't tell them apart) should never be allowed near a microphone much less a broadcasting booth...and chris collinsworth is good in small doses...but I never cared for him as an announcer...the entire network just plain sucks...it's kinda stupid when you have to go down to the bar to watch the only game being played on that night because you and a huge portion of the viewers can't get the thing

and farve will or rather should come back next year...I want to see him break marino's record...and anyone see sharper trying to do the lambeau leap? that was awesome...those fans down there rocked...not only rejecting him of the leap...but throwing beer on him...classic

Believe it or not, Gumbal (Bryant of today show fame(his brother is 10 times better than him)) was actually much better tonight than he was in the first NFL network game ever in Denver. Chris Collinsworth is still an idiot.

The Packers just couldn't hang on to the ball or stand on their feet tonight. I think Farve will be back, at least I hope so. Even as a Denver fan, I still love to watch him play.

As for Sharper, I wonder where the hell he thought he was. The fans should have let him up in the first row and start wailing on him.

actually now that I think about it...it wasn't sharper...but moot or shoot or foot or something

Man, I wish I had a clue of what you guys are talking about with the Packers...ugh. Well, I do have to say the NFL Network has a GENIUS idea and I would watch it a TON if it was more availalable and if Gumble wasnt on it.
And yes, Favre is always fun to watch even though I dont like the Pack.
