Albany,n.y. Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 Watched the 1st episode on The CW tonight. It's going to take some time to get used to. Hopefully it will improve. Too much Mahomes love, commercials breaking in in the middle of a conversation (I don't know if this was a local station issue or The CW's problem), and the worst part-NO PICK SEGMENT. I hope they wake up & start a pick segment starting next week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PetermansRedemption Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 Just figured out (from this post) that Inside the NFL moved to the CW. Also, what is that cast?! They lost everyone who made that show even decent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boatdrinks Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 Once great show is now a joke and a mere shell of its former self. Time to retire this franchise. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregg Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 Anyone see the season preview on the NFLN last night. They all had the Bills winning the east. Most had the Chiefs winning the Super Bowl. Kurt Warner had the Eagles over the Bengals. Cynthia Frelund still loves us. She picked the Bills over the Seahawks.

Buffalo03 Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 It's never been the same since the old days with Len Dawson, Nick Buonoconti, Cris Collinsworth and Jerry Glanville. I watched it while James Brown was hosting it also bur this isn't the same. Ryan Clark? He's annoying 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ned Flanders Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 I go back to This Week in Pro Football, where Pat Summerall did the NFL highlights and Charlie Jones did the AFL highlights. With the merger in 1970, it was Summerall and Tom Brookshier doing the show. They were a great pairing both on the highlights and in the booth for CBS.

Len and Nick were the best. I can't recall exactly how it all transpired, but I think it jumped the shark when Collinsworth joined the cast. Later iterations with Collinsworth, Phil Simms and others were just OK, and the additions of Ray Lewis and Brandon Marshall (especially Brandon Marshall) made it truly unwatchable. I'll check out the new show, but my expectations are not high. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though he was a former Dolphin (and Patriot) I really liked Nick because of his time on Inside the NFL. I was sad watching the HBO documentary filmed shortly before he died and seeing how he was suffering near the end. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was born in 86 so, I watched it in the 90's growing up and remember the 4 man lineup. It was a 3 man for while before Glanville but those are the days I remember 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Romes Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 The short films were the only reason to watch since forever. And even these have been getting steadily more stale. After 50 years can’t you put another spin on Facenda/Spence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoMAn Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 (edited) 19 hours ago, BillsPride12 said: This show is going to be as relevant as ESPN is now There was a time when NFL highlight shows and round table discussions were limited to Sunday pre-game broadcasts and HBO's 'Inside the NFL'. Other than locally produced shows it was one of the few places to see the game highlights. Remember, most home games were not even shown locally on TV, so for many, Inside the NFL was fans' first extensive look and analysis of the game. It's no longer relevant since the volume of on-demand podcasts, DVRs, streaming radio, Youtube, team websites and video content, websites and message boards like this. Inside the NFL may be a fine show, but it's not must see TV for NFL fans that they have to pencil it in on their calendars. We used to look forward to the Thursday evening first look. Now? Meh. I'll check out my team at my convenience at preferred favorite web sites. Edited September 7, 2023 by SoMAn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ganesh Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 I agree..In the 90s the main NFL program was watching the pre-game shows on ESPN, NBC, CBS and Fox. On ESPN, you would get to see the "NFL Matchup" and then at 7:30 PM EST you would get NFL Primetime. We used to sit waiting to watch the NFL Primetime (especially fi the Bills won) before switching to Sunday Night Football. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
