Time Warner and the NFL need to come up with a resolution, it's getting ridiculous. NFL network has been on air for nine years and Time Warner still doesn't carry them.

I went dish for this reason and this reason only. Would never go back. I did call TWC once to ask them why they would not carry it, they blamed NFL Network of extortion, said they were asking twice what Dish was paying. NFL Network says TWC wants a better deal than Dish.

Interesting Stat I heard last year--keep in mind NFL Network reaches a fraction of the country--the combine coverage had a bigger audience than Professional baseball during the same week. I will get challenged on that, so I am looking to see if I can find it.

    • We will disagree on the hiding part. Protecting from turnovers is how I saw it but not worth a million words.   I thought the receivers were given better balls than normal, as a result of the QB being sharper with his throws.   At the same time when you have games with 11 completions they aren’t getting a lot of chances compared to 31 or whatever it was.  
    • The team has done a lot to make Bryce look good. You list the receivers but let's not forget the most expensive offensive line in the league that's also got its LT on a rookie contract.  Are the receivers all pro or pro bowl caliber? With the exception of Tmac possibly making the pro bowl depending on the rest of his season, no. But that doesn't have anything to do with hitting guys in stride Sunday which is something he hasn't really been able to do all season. 250YAC is crazy. It's why guys like Tyreek have always been so deadly at near full speed when it hits their hands.  I think if Bryce can do that with much more consistency, and we have the occasional real deep ball or 30 or more to keep safeties honest, Bryce could turn the corner and so could some of the receivers. 
    • I think Bryce balls out again and the Panthers win in a close one.  Panthers will have a defender shadow CMC the whole game so I expect he'll be contained to under 100 yards.
