    I love this show. Watched it last week and they had footage of the top 10 one hit wonders. Fascinating learning about Greg Cook and Bill Walsh calling him possibly the greatest QB ever had it not been for that tragic injury. Timmy Smith was there as well.

    Actually enjoy watching it more then Total Access!

    Oh yeah, it gives those of us who don't know of the great/ terrible games/ players/ events a lot more background. I like Total Access, but this stuff is history, and that's important (perhaps particularly to a Packers fan like me!). I mean, one could watch Sky Sports all day and find out about football, but may never have seen footage of Brazil 1970, or Revies Leeds stringing the passes together v Southampton, or Best weaving through a muddy pitch, or Cruyff turning full backs one way and the other etc. etc. and it's hard to appreciate the game fully without that.

    Just on the programmes on Sky, the NFL Gameday they show on a monday evening isn't bad. It's exactly what I've been missing since Blitz! stopped in 1997 - a highlights package. Though it's still not as good as having something like Blitz, which is what sky should be giving me for the amount I fork out every month.

    I don't know why TV3 continue with that NFL films overdramatic gameday they show late at night once a week. They are wasting their money.

    They should show the one based more on highlights and studio discussion with neon deion and steve mariucci. The casual onlookers will pick up loads more from a show more along the lines of match of the day.

    The NFL Films stuff is great! Less of the dissing :) Nah, the highlights is good but deion drives me mad and Rich Eisen's even more of a headwrecker. Having said that Tony Kornheiser on MNF is just awful, he makes you want to turn off the damn game

    Yeah Gamedays good but for some reason or another personally to me it doesn't feel the same as NFL Primetime. When NASN showed it Boomer and Jackson always got me in the mood for highlights but Gameday as decent as it is doesn't do that.

    Oh and jdivision totally agree about Deion. Brilliant Defensive back but leaves a lot to be desired on TV. His schoolgirl pitch squeaking over the highlights grate with me terribley.. Jamie Dukes is terrible as well but not as bad as Deoin
