If these guys know so litle about the game that they have to fill most of the half hour before the game with this 'Travelogue' tripe then they should resign so someone who actually can discuss the game can get on with it.  Could you imagine this happening before a Champions League quarter final clash ... never ... not even with Adrian Chiles & co.

The travel thing is a bit odd, but in general I think Sky do a good job and Cadle and Reynolds are decent presenters.

deeppockets...do you not think it will be the producers decision what they show.

Regarding Neil Reynolds never used to be a fan when he used to be an occasional guest on the show but he's won me over and Jeff is just...well Jeff Love

It could well be the producer, and I am sure they all know the game inside out, but they seem to be so comfortable in the job that they mindlessly spout cliches or read out emails when they could be far more informative and entertaining at the same time.

Compared to that clown on Channel 4, it's like listening to Vince Lombardi and Tom Landry shooting the breeze.

Can't stand Reynolds,constant Brady rimming amongst other things, Carlson all day for me. Jeff is great, Kev is well Kev, Cecil is a waste of time.

>>>Clearly the SKY deal had clauses about mentioning Wembley over and over, apparently SKY have the NFL if they'll just rename Jacksonville the 'Wembley bound Jags'to save time.

Jeff is the best commentator that has ever been on the programme. Good stories and unrivalled technical insights such as junk fronts and explaining pass route concepts such as arrow.

In the Seattle game he immediately identified a lack of pressure as an issue and that blitzing would put them in a bad match up vs Gonzo -  Seattle then start blitzing and Gonzo starts torching them - proper coaching analysis.

British NFL presenters need to dumb everything down just in case a newbie is watching - NFL UK desperate to sell out Wembley twice so need to plug that every 5 mins too

I cannot wait until this London franchise nonsense falls flat on its face. And it will...

Couldn't agree with Hoofball more , Jeff is brilliant and a superb reader of the game as well he should , Cadle makes me cringe , how much is he on I would love to know , just to say " So 24 - 7 in our balllllgame , what you like over there Neil ?" ( 5 mins later ) ok back to the ballllgame

jesus a monkey could sit there and do what he does.
