Tom Jackson, Ditka, CC, and Key are gone.
Hass, Dilfer, C. Woodson, and R. Moss are in.....Berman still the host.
NFL Network is led by Eisen, with Mooch, Irvin, Warner, and Faulk.
I am giving Countdown a go just to watch Hass this week. But wondering which show you all will be going with? Is there anyone who is a NFL Network Gameday morning vet that can give me some info on how they like their crew?

I think they all do it to a certain degree, but I have trouble watching NFL Network due to all the talking over each other, or BSing while someone else is talking, and so on.
It seems to be the Hot New Thing to make it more informal, lighthearted, etc, to sound more like a conversation among friends, but something about that group on NFLN doesn't work for me.

I was excited to see Hass on Countdown - but I tuned in just in time to listen to Moss, then Woodson, then Difler go on and on about Keap. After 10 minutes, I turned it off. I get the point, but I was tuning in for football.

I'll have to pass on that one. It starts at like 4am out here in the islands. But, if I had a choice, I'd watch Hass, just to see that shiny head of his in the lights.

I didn't see it, but I will tune in the following weeks just to see/listen to Hass. His brother is a pretty good analyst and Dilfer has been doing this stuff for years the NFL Channel. The other guys are ok but the team will have to work together for a while until they mesh.

Chris Berman looked way out of place sittin' next to all the new kids, but espn's show really needed new blood anyway.

Sorry but who cares. Most people watch the post game show on ESPN not the pre-game.

I just turn one on, but I don't really watch it much. I always cook a bit for the game so I am usually either prepping things or finishing up when its on.

I'm the complete opposite. I get a pot of coffee on and sitting on my couch with my IPad at 8:00am every Sunday morning. Watch all the previews for each game and make my picks for the 3 pick em pools I am in and the 1 fantasy pool.
Never watch post game shows, why watch a bunch of highlights I have already seen throughout the day?
Would you believe I care Obi?
How about give at least 1 poop rather than none?
Er, would you go for I can have at least 2 hours Sunday morning not talking to the wife using Countdown/Gameday Morning as a distraction?
Sorry bout that Chief.
