If Schefter looks like Simmons, I don't want the NFL Network.

I hate to nitpick AA, but this game does mean something in the playoff picture. Whoever wins has a 2-game lead in the home-field race, as they would be one up in the standings and have the tie-breaker (head-to-head win).

Is it worth risking Favre? Probably not.

I meant in regards to making the Playoffs, but it doesn't matter when you have Mr. Rodgers.

someone back me up here, that ball was short of the chains when they measured right?

"And the Packers are starting to get frisky here!" - Dick Enberg, on the radio.

youve heard the phrase get busy? well these packers get BI-ZAY!

There is nothing finer than a T.O. dropped ball, especially when you are an Eagles fan. Unless, of course, it is bobbled into a defender's arms.

that interference call was crap, the judge right in front of the play called incidental contact and some douche from behind the play overruled him. terrible terrible call

if it takes a minute after the play to throw the flag then it probably isn't a penalty.

Gumbel is surprised at the spot. He thought GB had the first down. Shocking.

Gumbul is horrible. Boring, sleepy, high pitched voice. Blah. Go cowboys!

anyone else think cris collinsworth is simply wretched?

gumbel:
"williams just got babtized at the 18"

i spelled it wrong.

The game is great, but the NFL Network is a ripoff and their coverage is awful! The officials in the game are horrendous, Chris Collinsworth must have taken a "stupid" pill before the game and "Gumby Gumble" should have his mouth stapled shut. He's an idiot! WORST PLAY by PLAY ANOUNCER EVER!!!!!! PERIOD!!!! They're all missing a good game!

Is Gumbel sick? His hair is all patchy and he's so much thinner than usual. He looks like has aged 20 years. Although he's never been play by play, he was always a pro. Any news on his health??

"Tony Romo has never faltered under pressure." - Collinsworth
Oh really?
Should we go back to the playoffs last year?
This was not a fair fight, favre was out in the second and the pack somehow stayed in the game even though al harris played his worst game of the year. can you believe the pick off of T.O.s chest was his first of the year?
although my shining moment was yelling "eat your popcorn now you overpaid clown" when he dropped that ball
- unapologetic packers fan

No one else caught Gumbel calling the Cowboy's QB "Rick Romo" after the game??

"Let's see if we can get an interview with Rick Romo."

Bryant Gumbel, in my opinion, is a terrible PBP guy. He has improved over last year, where he seemed to be on a three-second delay on calling the action, but he is still a poor choice to have in that prime spot, in my opinion.

The popcorn line about Terrell Owens was pretty funny, though.

Yes, my daughter and I turned to each other and said "Rick Romo?..are you kidding?". Does Gumball even do any pre-game prep work? Or does he show up 5 minutes befoe kickoff, strap on the headset and believe? he's watching the game at home.

The Packers kick a field goal to pull to 27-34, and Gumball, multiple times says..."the Packers are a score away from tying the game". Uh, Gumball...a field goal, and a ssfety count as a score. Not sure how they could have tied it with those.

Tons of announcers use that phrase dave. Doesn't mean that Gumball doesn't suck though. Not that it matters since I can't get the network nor do I really have a need for it.

I know I'm in the minority...but I kinda like Bryant doing the games...

Everyone else that does them is so hoopla and hype filled that I tend not to mind having some space to just watch the game.

Collinsworthless is by far the worst, least talented, loud mouthed, idiotic announcer in the history of televised sports. Gumbel is no better. That baptized comment was really offensive. And any time the Packers did anything good, both of them immediately followed up with some negative comment or stat. And the camera work and other coverage sucked, too. How can the NFL Network seriously try to strong-arm cable companies into carrying them, when their product is for shit? Thanks for letting me vent.

I've had DirecTV for several years and enjoy being able to watch sports on the NFL Network and the Big Ten Network. However, there should be some real work done to get better announcers on the NFL Network. I thought I was going to need one of those clickers to keep track of all the erroneous comments made by Bryant Gumbel. He introduces the Cowboys at the beginning of the game as "here come the Pats". Several times he referred to the Packers when he meant the Cowboys. He even referred to the Tony Romo as Rick Romo.

Mr. Gumbel at one time was a top-notch announcer, but seeing him over the past several months has degraded the quality television the NFL Network should be striving for. I don't know if Mr. Gumbel is just getting old, all the drugs have finally caught up with him, or if he's suffering from sort of degenerative disease - but he is really a joke as an announcer and should be removed from the air waves immediately. Unless of course one is looking for a comedic spoof on the game of football - he would be great at playing the idiot!

Keep improving NFL Network - I enjoy watching the games, but don't like the announcers (I even switched over to ESPN after the game because they have better - and more prepared - announcers).

One other thing that drives me nuts about the NFL Network is its constant need for the robotic sound effect. Every graphic, name ID, or cutaway uses that sound. It is so unnecessary. After watching a half hour of its regular shows I have to quit.
