Seems like it, but this IS the NFL we are talking about.Seems like they could probably have two cameras in the pylon if it came down to it.
Their inability to put it in the end zone there is shaping up to be critical, as we knew it would be. And I'd put that mostly on the coaching staff.Wtf are they doing? If they're gonna run it all the goal line give it to Yeldon. But that also begs the question why the fuck are they running it all 3 downs there anyways. They have single coverage on Allen Robinson, who dominated on that drive, but they refuse to throw it.
That was the right call. Make them score a TD.Am I the only one who thinks you kick the FG here?
Maybe illegal shift is a "no play" penalty so no choice.Wouldn't you decline the penalty there?
Don't think it is, though.Maybe illegal shift is a "no play" penalty so no choice.
hey the Jags are only half a game out of first in the divisionHaven't these two teams been bad long enough to have had enough high draft picks to get good, like a Kansas City Royals effect?
That might seriously be the worst division in the history of sports.hey the Jags are only half a game out of first in the division
I guess it kind of falls under the umbrella of "any publicity is good publicity". All I generally hear about TNF is that the quality of play stinks, the quality of teams stink, and now for the last two weeks, the uniforms are awful. But people ARE talking about TNF, I suppose.At a glance, it seems the NFLN games draw an audience about a third smaller than Monday Night Football, plus TNF has resulted in NFLN reaching a lot more homes than it otherwise would. If those results are disappointing to the NFL, they had unreasonable expectations.
They remind me of a car with primer.The half gold half black helmet is not only hideously ugly, it's also really fucking dumb. Why do it???
Wow, are the MNF matchups always that bad? I know they don't get the marquee games anymore (those have moved to SNF), and there's always a bad matchup or two late in the season that seemed like a good idea in July, but this year's slate looks especially bad.The thing is, MNF's quality isn't that much higher than TNF (if at all), so I am not sure it is a result of the every team requirement. Compare the games week by week and I would rather watch the TNF game most weeks

The problem as we've discussed is how few good teams there are this season.In fairness Detroit and Baltimore were playoff teams and SD was a borderline playoff team last year. Some matchups turn out better than others. But overall the slates are pretty comparable and nothing special.
Purple and red, assuming the Cardinals are all red, will be a schizophrenic color combination if there ever was one.That Minnesota-Arizona game on TNF should be a lot of fun ... especially if the Vikings are decked out all in purple
