I don't have it. I went to a friend's to watch. He showed me all they offer.

That said, Gumbal and Collinsworth were awful. Definitely liked Eisen and Faulk at the Half.

Biggest shock to me was that I only saw 1 Peyton Manning commercial. Of course they made up for that with that Wendy's commercial being showed every break.

The scoreboard for their games sucks though.

everything but their broadcast of a game is good.

they have a lot of reruns which is good and bad. but as a big football fan, you will find yourself watching the NFLN most of the time, until you run into the reruns.

I absolutely loved the in-depth coverage, especially pre-game. It was good to finally see inside our locker room, and outside of Bryant Stumble and Collinsworthless, the analysis was great. Deion adds a very special element to the program, a certain energy - they had me extremely fired up before this game.

The game coverage and announcers were horrible for this game. But it's an awesome channel nonetheless. I'm sure they'll get better.

Honestly, I thought think this year's game broadcasts are a giant leap beyond last years. Perhaps they'll continue to improve.

And I think they're already better than ESPN.

The Cowboys/Falcons game last year with Vermeil and Gumbel. That was a crapfest. Vermeil was sick and lost his voice, but they kept him in until halftime, and then Faulk stepped in.

I don't think they have enough programming right now.

NFL Total Access is great and so is the Cowboys NFL Films stuff. Other than that, I don't know. In the offseason, they show marathons of Cheerleader tryouts.

After ESPN, the NFLN is my favorite "non-network" channel. Not even close.

It's obscene that the cable networks won't carry it.

Gumble and Collinsworth were awful. I had to turn the sound down on the TV. Absolutely the worst broadcast team in the history of television.

Hey, if you can, get a DVR box, you can then record Total Access, fast forward to the Cowboys segments, and get all your Cowboys info in about 10 minutes, without any commercials at all. Pretty nice.

I might be old school - hell I remember Mohammed Ali on Wide World of Sports channel 7 - but I agree.

I shouldn't have to jump through hoops to see games like this.
The pretend fight between Cable and the NFLN is bogus; they both know that in the end, they'll cash in big.

You really don't know what you are missing out on. Combine week is just the bomb.
