Re: Greg Bedard's breakdown of key plays vs packers

He obviously is getting this from watching the all-22. Lucky him.

Indeed.

Instead of filling the airwaves with the 250th replay of the DeSean Jackson punt return, wouldn't it make sense for the NFL to let fans have a look at games from a viewpoint that lets them actually see what's going on?

That said, props and thanks to Greg Bedard for doing this -- a glass of water in the desert.

One last note on the Packers game: Vince Wilfork and Devin McCourty drew fines from the NFL from plays in that game. The McCourty play was of course the much-discussed hit where Ed Hochuli watched the replay on the big screen before making his decision to call a penalty.

McCourty, Wilfork fined - Extra Points - Boston.com

Cornerback Devin McCourty and nose tackle Vince Wilfork have received fines totaling $15,000 from the Patriots' win over the Packers last Sunday.

McCourty was fined $10,000 for unnecessary roughness, specifically for striking a defenseless player in the head and neck area. The rookie had a helmet-to-helmet hit on Green Bay tight end Andrew Quarless in the second quarter.

Wilfork was fined $5,000 for a major facemask penalty, specifically for grabbing an opponent by the facemask in an attempt to tackle him on a run play. Wilfork was flagged for the third-quarter play.
