Peyton and Eli

I thought this was phenomenal TV on ESPN2.  It was so interesting and bringing in guests like Ray Lewis and Russell Wilson. It felt like you’re on the couch watching the game with them. The amount of insights and their ability to predict plays is amazing. I found myself glued to this and I usually get bored with MNF. So much better than a normal broadcast, I kind of wish I could watch football like this every time. The novelty will probably wear out eventually but if you’re a fan of the game, I would definitely try it.

I thought it was terrific

their insights were spot on

eli…hard count only at goal line right before rookie jumps offsides

payton…I prefer to play against man defense in two minute drill as Carr hits two bullets over the middle to get raiders a FG to tie it in regulation 

all 3 of them (Wilson) calling out what they see in defense every play

and that’s just a few I can think of

very welcome relief from the network mouthpieces

i watched them Q4 thru end of game

Ray Lewis was also great earlier in the game, calling out plays from defensive perspective.

It was amazing. If I wanted to just watch the game ... I could have. This was an alternative. It provided humor, amazing insight the schills can't give you, game knowledge former players who are in the booth aren't allowed to give, fun guests, and great brother back and forth. It was like watching the game with your buddies ... who just happen to be football genuises. Will actually watch MNF now. Kudos, ESPN.

    • the way it should be. the way it has to be.  when you get a rookie (no matter where he is drafted), you don't expect him to play like a vet or even get a grasp on NFL offenses like a vet. if you intend to have him running the offense, you build the offense around what they do and what clicks.  not Young's fault, but he was sold as someone who would be a rookie but has the mind of a seasoned vet. guess what...he wasn't. reich and "his" crew had no idea how to work with a rookie QB or groom one. they thought they knew, but they didn't and it was obvious in the lack of plan they had for him. their plan was to treat him like he was a seasoned vet. even with that, i don't think they had any clear vision not just with Bryce, but with the offense. There was no cohesion between all the various coaches. nothing fit together and reich wasn't a strong enough leader to pull it all together.  i like the approach of starting over with the fundamentals and i think it's good for any new coaching staff or new QB to a system. you don't know what to expect so you start from the beginning to make sure you're on the same page from the beginning. and as you get more used to each other, you learn what works, what could really work well, and what won't work and you form the playbook around that. contrast that with chud who had been working on a playbook for years and just wanted to use it regardless of whether the situation called for it or the personnel he had (on the team or even on the field) fit what he wanted to call.   or last year when we had coaches from completely different backgrounds trying to put something together that was supposed to be a blend of what each brought to the table, but just ended up being a sloppy predictable mess that didn't fit anyone on the team, QB, WRs, and OL.
    • I've always been super pumped up for the upcoming season but I've never been so uninterested in a new season. After six years under Dipper I've been left at end of season drunken and wallowing in my own piss... not invested in the team right now but hope Canales and Morgan make a good team together...
    • There's no discussion anymore, it's just a circle jerk about how bad Bryce is, and it got old a while ago.
