Wait until the playoff studio coverage turns into an NFLuk infomercial for the ticket sales for next year's Wembley games.
Ticket sales actually start this Thursday for those of us who had season tickets this year. We have an exclusive one month window to renew.

Not sure if I will this year because of changes in my work commitments.

Out of sheer curiosity if a franchise came to London, how many of you would buy a season ticket?

I will renew my International Series season ticket in for 2015.

As for your question - No. Three games is probably as many as I could manage. I like the current format, It is more an NFL festival and a celebration of the NFL rather than support for a specific team. Assuming a UK franchise were to take over the Jags then personally I have no desire to see three games from the AFC South along with five other intra or inter conference games. Even if the UK or London is to be awarded a franchise I feel that it is still a few years off yet.

Surely the best thing from a fans perspective is that the Wembley game is mainly in the 130pm slot? Not only does that maximise exposure but also allows fans to watch another game later on?
From the point of view of being able to see the most games then yes, however it's a good atmosphere under the lights at Wembley and it's good to get the crowd reaction to the Redzone updates throughout the match.

I dont even know who some of the people are on that Fantasy Football update they do. They have some woman on there and I havent a clue who she is!
The only thing I've ever seen here do is introduce the pre game act at International Series matches.

The studio segments were woefully poor tonight, Cecil Martin was abysmal at the touchscreen thing.
I agree. Jeff Reinebold is in the studio next week. He's more to my taste.

Think you meant Saints/Bears.

Also it's Kevin Burkhardt, not Buckhart.

Ian Eagle and Dan Fouts will be doing Chargers/49ers next Saturday night, but no word on Philadelphia at Washington on the same day.

Yes, this weeks MNF is Saints @ Bears. Not sure why I repeated last weeks Falcons @ Packers match!

Regarding next Saturday evening, I believe the Eagles @ Redskins game on NFL Network will be covered by Kevin Harlan, Rich Gannon and Stacey Dales.

Sky are showing the Browns for 2 weeks in a row! Must be a record. Can't complain as a Browns fan.

Look at what the Manziel effect has had on tv stations in the US in revising their broadcast match:

Stroke of luck that the NFL cross-flexed that game to Fox a couple of weeks ago before he was named starter, if they had kept it on CBS it would have been mostly stuck behind Houston vs Indy

They will, it's just been confirmed by NFL PR, while Ian Eagle, Dan Fouts and Jenny Dell will cover San Diego at San Francisco

Week 16 commentary teams.

01:30 Friday - Titans @ Jaguars - NFLNET- Jim Nantz, Phil Simms, Tracy Wolfson.
21:30 Saturday Eagles @ Redskins - NFLNET - Kevin Harlan, Rich Gannon, Stacy Dales.
01:25 Sunday - Chargers @ 49ers - CBS - Ian Eagle, Dan Fouts, Jenny Dell.
18:00 Sunday - Chiefs @ Steelers - CBS - Greg Gumbel, Trent Green, Evan Washburn.
21:25 Sunday - Colts @ Cowboys - CBS - Jim Nantz, Phil Simms, Tracy Wolfson.
01:30 Monday - Seahawks @ Cardinals - NBC - Al Michaels, Chris Collinsworth, Michele Tafoya.
01:30 Tuesday - Broncos @ Bengals- ESPN - Mike Tirico, Jon Gruden, Lisa Salters.

7 games in total this week. It's the Last TNF and MNF of the season. The extra games on Saturday are part of the TNF contract making up for the game that they missed in week 13 (NBC thanksgiving match), and the lack of a game in Week 17.

Matches on Sky Sports 2 and Redzone on Sky Sports 5 for Week 17. Nice idea but presumably they'll input adverts with it being on Sky Sports 5? and that just ruins the whole idea of Redzone.

A shame that next week won't be too exciting anyway. Atlanta/Carolina will be moved to primetime, the rest of the NFC will be sorted tonight when Seattle beat Arizona and so doesn't leave much to sort out really. Detroit haven't won at Green Bay for 20-odd years and that's likely to be moved to the late slot but can't see it being any good.

Cadle said on air last night that Red Zone on SS5 will be commercial free.

Cincinnati at Pittsburgh has been announced as the SNF game next week.

The full schedule for other moves will be released today, but it is widely reported that Detroit at Green Bay will be a late game. This would make it almost certain that Carolina at Atlanta will be an early game, so together should form Sky Sports' double header.

Detroit @ green Bay now confirmed as moving to the late afternoon slot.

Utterly bizarre that NBC have picked the Steelers/Bengals match though. You have a winner takes all match-up in Falcons/Panthers with no other teams, wildcard slots or variables involved, yet they are obviously chasing the ratings instead.

Assuming you have the HD package, then yes.

Wouldn't describe it as utterly bizarre, NBC/NFL are taking a punt that Cincy lose tonight and then it effectively becomes a win an in battle for the Bengals along with a battle for the AFC North.

Even if they win tonight there will still be something riding on the game for both teams, and is a far more attractive ratings match up for a broadcaster than two teams with losing records

It also allows the league to share the schedule nicely for its other broadcasters......

FOX can have Carolina/Atlanta early followed by Detroit/Gree Bay late and CBS can have San Diego in one of it's slots and a team like New England or Baltimore in the other

There is no requirement for the SNF game to be 'win and in'

Not really, unless they flex Carolina/Atlanta over to CBS, CBS dont have anything that exciting to show.

They have San Diego/Kansas City - if SD win they are in the playoffs, that would do for one slot

If Denver win tonight then New England will need to win next week to get the 1 seed, CBS will be happy with that, they love showing New England, they'd probably even try and get it flexed to the 9:25 slot
