ESPN vs NFL Network

[Sam Malone]

I watched ESPN,Jamie Dukes annoys the hell out of me.

Which are you watching?

I've flipped over to NFL-N a few times but not often. I may start though since ESPN is letting about five or six picks go by and before talking about them. NFL-N seems to have the picks a bit sooner and is more timely with their analysis. I don't need to keep hearing about how Brady Quinn slipped to 22 over on ESPN.

I was really trying to give NFLN a chace this year, it is my first year with NFLN, but I have to say that I have been on ESPN all day. I can't get away except on commercials. If shefter was on ESPN, it would be perfect. maybe ESPN should trade Clayton for Shefter and a 2008 1st.

 

[Pats Fanatic]

I was going back and forth between the two. I really wanted to leave it on the NFL Network but Marshall Faulk started analyzing(if that is what you call it) I I'd turn it over to ESPN.

NFL NETWORK, easily. Schefter was dead on with most everything he said today, all his reports turned out to be true. The analysts arent bad, Mayock is pretty good. Plus they were showing that TJ Hoooseyourmama commercial.

I started off on ESPN and then I was forced to change to NFLN. I live in Canada and they started showing the Stanley Cup Playoffs instead mad.

I like listening to Boomer and Kiper. Meshawn was annoying me, and I'm surprised to say that I found Mort' to be a bit incoherent today.

On NFLN, Schefter was great. I'm not a huge Faulk fan, but I found him to be much better than Meshawn. Mayock is OK, but I'm partial to Kiper and the hair. Eason is no Boomer, but he isn't bad either. Mooch has some occasional insight.

I think that the NFLN did a pretty good job. I'll be glad when I can watch this in HD though (on either network)...

 

[Krugman]

Shefter (sp?) and May**** are good,I agree.I thought NFLN did a decent job,now Boomer and crew have some competition!

Fellers,

I watched with it pretty much on the NFL Network. I listen to Boomer and the crew on ESPN enough during the season. I wanted something different, so NFLN got the shot.

Personally, I was happy with my choice. I find Eason's voice easier to take that Boomers, allthough I still am an ESPN fan. Adam Schefter's work was his usual high quality, and I like listening to Mooch give his take on things.

During commercial breaks I'd turn over to ESPN, but they still seemed to be always at high volume, full strength analysis. It's that shouting stuff, I guess.

Anyway, that's my 2-cents on it. I'll probably watch the draft on NFLN next year too.

Respects,

I switched to NFLN last year after Boomer started giving away all the picks before they were actually made. That pissed me off. So they got the bulk of my viewing time this year.

I've been watching the draft on the NFLN all day... I flipped over to espn a few times and wasn't impressed, the info seems to be better on NFLN...

 

[Ahriman]

NFLN for me, mostly. However, I will say this about ESPN: Keyshawn Johnson is infinitely better at this gig than Michael Irvin. He's articulate enough and, most importantly, doesn't scream at me. For this, I am grateful to ESPN. His analysis of the Pats trade was spot on and I found myself laughing at his insistence that every single team in the 1st round draft a receiver.

 

[Barnsie]

One thing I forgot: NFLN has a draft ticker at the bottom of the screen during the commercials, which is pretty hot.

 

[KevinAbq]

I'm not watching either.

I'm depending on you all for info.
