I remember just waiting breathlessly until Thursday nights as a kid to watch Len Dawson and Nic Buonocoti(sp) dissect the games back in the early 80s. That NFL Films footage and the fantastic soundtrack and voiceovers... man it just made the game greater than it was.

Hate to see the show has become orphaned again and that it has gotten worse for the wear.

Yeah since leaving HBO, it has been garbage.

 

HBO is losing ground…I personally can’t find a reason to keep that sub since Game  of Thrones.  They didn’t plan well.  Flat out quit watching Last of Us.  Too boring

Inside the NFL back in the day was the greatest show ever.  Man that was the glory days for HBO.  NFL films footage is an American icon of sports,  damn so great.  I can hear the soundtrack in my head even now, so amazing

I love all the murder mystery mini series they do. There’s another true detective coming too. Succession and Industry are great. Then all the classics like Sopranos or The Wire 

I get it free with AT&T so that helps.

Barry last season starts this week.

Tons of good originals on HBOmax

But can't see Warner/Discovery getting into the NFL game these days. While it is an inexpensive show to put together vs other productions... don't know if they'll feel it's time to bring it back.

Could see Amazon making a play, to supplement TNF. Or maybe Peacock, because they could pair it back up with Collingsworth.

      The reason Freddie didn't dress

      By Anybodyhome · Posted

      Yep, you're right. I forgot about that. Fly was banged up, but RBA put him on the ice for a reason, too. Could have put KK out there, but there was a purpose for Deslauriers on the ice.

      So David Moore is making the 53?!?!

      I wasn’t speaking of Metchie in the context that I referenced Renfro  I couldn’t, he hasn’t played a snap for us    My Metchie esteem level is just not real high. As an NFL WR.  I am no expert on WRs it’s just what I think based on how it has gone for him as a pro  If he can’t catch on here with his old buddy then who is left? I am not wishing him any misfortune and hope he does well because that means we stole some talent; basically for free to boot.

      Thornton and Lee III

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      No one said it would be a permanent thing.  The best thing about having more than two good corners is that you can play them in different position which changes how a QB sees the play unfolding.  You put question marks on a QB you had a second or so of decision making and gives our improved (hopefully) DL a chance to sack him.  If Thornton and Lee turn out to be studs you have 4 good CBs that can be used all over the defense.  That's a good thing.  If you are looking at it just based on salary it is kind of weak take.
