TV coverage is going to be quite different this year.


MNF is going to ESPN with an all new announcing team.

NBC gets back with the NFL on Sunday nights with what looks like some really good matchups.

Fox NFL pregame show might be going with a three person rather than a four person lineup. (not set in stone at this moment)

The NFL network is going to show some late season games (to be determined).

TV schedules can change late in the season to present better matchups on networks with better time periods to show it.
(this system is quite complicated to explain exactly how it will work)

Also, the thanksgiving day games expand from 2 to 3, with the third being NFL network only (chiefs and broncos if I remember right).

Should be a very entertaining year.

Yep, should be interesting to see how the Colts look minus Edge. Also see how much the Giants D has improved.

My poor Lions will likely suck yet AGAIN, but maybe they will take some notes from those Tigers and actually show up this season. The QB situation doesn't look to have improved, so uncertainty always looms. Ummm, go BLUE

Hope that Madden curse doesn't get Alexander.

Cards should be better (but hell, how many years have we been hearing that?)

I am very much looking forward to the start of college football, nothing better than getting an afternoon buzz before going out, watching Michigan football!

What do you get with pro football, a weeklong chat about why one team lost and the other won? Nothing is better than Mondays on ESPN, every show says the same thing, redundancy is boring!

Around the Horn and PTI are fun. Redundancy to some extent has got to be expected. There is usually
enough controversy of some kind from the weekend games to get some good back and forth banter
going.

Yeah, I don't get it. On paper, they should be contending in the Playoffs yet every year they finish 4-12.

The Cards - where old veterans from other teams go through the motions just before retirement and young promising players waste a few years while looking for an exit to another team.
