the state of MNF

[mcro_rave_2001]

maybe it's just me but MNF seems to be getting shit games compared to SNF.

 

[bigdeal701]

SNF has the advantage of the "flex" schedule so the majority of those games are always competetive


besides, the announcers are far better as well

I don't get NFL network there for THursday night football I don't watch.

SNF is awesome, superior to all 3 of the night games. Great announcing and production.

MNF announcing is awful, very very bad. Like stated before the extreme overdone coverage of the entire game is not needed, c'mon man is the only good segment.

I think MNF needs to get an entirely new announcing team Tricio and Gruden are un bearable. they also need to go with better matchups, I know they don't have the luxury of SNF in picking games throughout the season, but isn't it logical to NOT pick teams like the Vikings, Dolphins, etc?

I hear you, Gruden just annoys the crap out of me. When he said the no call on what should have been pass interference was a good no call, I was like do you even watch the game? The defender was grabbing the jersey so hard, Nelsons pads popped out of his jersey lol.

What difference does it make what station it's on unless you don't have cable or something like that ? I like the Thursday night games too. The more nights, the better.

Because ESPN apparently can't cover a game.

If I were king there would be no Thursday games...... Or games in London or Mexico or out of the country. And anyone suggesting we need a European expansion team would be euthanized.

Come on dude... The ball had already sailed by when the contact happened that caused the shoulder pad to come out. Gruden was right, it was a good no call.

MNF used to be the key matchups with SNF given to the lessor teams for national exposure.

Once NBC got into the mix it was switched.

TNF will not go away because it is how the NFL Network can justify their fees to cable providers (and customers).

If the objective is to put the best possible product on the field, then your decree would make absolute sense. On the other hand, if the objective is to maximize the league's profitability, then I suspect otherwise.

Wrong, he had ahold of the jersey way before the pass, if it wasn't PI it was damn sure holding.

Figures you'd say that.

I can live with SNF and MNF, but TNF has to go. Its terrible. Teams are not prepared, players who are hurt are more likely out because of the short week. It robs the fan of seeing stud players from another team, but if it was Sunday they would have played. I would rather see 2 Monday night games, one East coast(7pm), one West cost(10pm)

FUCK YES,

Damn man I elect you commish!

When I lived West Coast MNF was the shit, now on the East I feel like we get the short shrift, it's total bullshit, something should be done.


eric5577 for COMMISH!

 

[fastforward]

It was a good no call.
