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.

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
