They should play these games in smaller soccer stadiums. The crowd looks so sparse in an NFL stadium; like when the Blitz played in Soldier Field.

I like New York's uniforms and typeface. They look kind of gothic...or art deco...whatever.

Nice opening drive for NY.

Coach Trestman needs to inspire the troops at half!

I don't really notice that.. 55" tv and run on a shield tv so the upscaling is really good

But the picture on ABC was definitely worse, and the audio was worse, and the camera cuts, overlays and all that stuff was shitty. At least on fox it seemed like a professional game.

I don't think channel 7 broadcasts in 1080, just 720.

Trestman doesn't seem to be growing the man effectively.

He must've accidentally brought the metric toolbox of concepts.

The front row fans at each game so far give off a paid acting gig vibe. Wouldn't put it past WWE. The level of chanting and hype between those fans and everyone else in crowd shots is drastic.

Can't believe they didn't show the run-in.

Best in game interview yet. Special teams have up 35 yds on a bonehead play... Asked the dude what the fuck right after. He simply said he thought the other team touched the ball. Interviewer is like 'yup thats what we thought. I can respect the hell out of that'. Player actually felt better he was able to explain himself. Awesome interaction.

It isn't the most exciting but the play is the best. And the commentators are actually really good.

Loving the transparency. Makes the game so much more engaging and less frustrating because you know exactly why things happened.

Drew a 9.5 Neilson rating this weekend with more tickets sold before kickoff than entire AAF season.

The NFL is taking notes. Being able to talk to multiple defenders and offensive players is cool. The replay decisions are great. I don't want to hear the plays that are called.

Hearing the replay guy making his decision is great.

Coach in-game interviews are going to get annoying, and they'll get sick of doing them.
