       [quote]5. The NFL Channel broadcast was crap. Charles Davis and
       Dan Hellie kept blah blahing when there was something on the
       field to talk about. A few times there were flags but they were
       jabbering about something unimportant and we could never hear
       the call on the field. So you'd come back and it would be 1st
       and 20 or something and have to assume  a holding call was made,
       etc. Guys, what goes on the field first, please. To top it off,
       they switch from the last snap (literaly as the ball was
       snapped) of the game over to the other game to spend a minute
       before kickoff of the next. Twenty seconds wouldn't have been
       too long to wait to pull the plug. Horrible production all
       around, but I guess its preseason for them as well.....[/quote]
       Those were Titans broadcasters and it was a Titans broadcast.
       The NFL Network just carries the feed from the home teams local
       channel in the preseason.

       The Titans broadcasts are pretty bad.
       Local for us, so I had to watch on my local CBS affiliate rather
       than on NFLN. At 9pm, the broadcast switched from the last 2-3
       minutes of the game to whatever was scheduled to come on at 9
       (48 Hours?).
       They finally cut back to the game for the final kneel down…I
       assume they received a few calls…

       Here we had the Deadskins broadcast on channel 4 and the Ravens
       broadcast on Channel 7.  Both local teams with the same game on
       different channels.

       Hellie and Charles are both NFL network guys (or used to be)-
       they've done that stuff before. It was the local Titans
       broadcast with the normal talk to gm etc... but completely
       ignoring on-field stuff is kind of inexcuseable, since they are
       both not new to the broadcasting. Could have just me being salty
       because Foles came in after the half....

       They were both wearing Titans polos.

       Don't know if anyone noticed, but the Titan's broadcast kept
       showing Coach Mike Furrey, thinking he was Nagy.  They had the
       wrong bald guy, every time they went to the sidelines, lol.

       Furrey I think is one of the reasons WRs that come here never
       seem to improve (Arob was a finished product and Mooney is
       nearly so when he was drafted), from not running through catches
       to jumping when not neccessary, to being unable to beat press
       coverage. Probably runs a good, friendly WR room but that does
       not make him a good teacher of the position. If you cannot
       improve those around you and make them better, perhaps you are
       the problem.....

       I dunno - Mooney was drafted in the 5th round so I don't think
       anyone including the Bears thought he was nearly a finished
       product.
       Miller, a 2nd rounder was a failure.

       I think Mooney fell and has turned out to be a steal. Lets see
       if he regresses this year with "coaching".... :D
