Why I hate the NFL network

I know this is just a preseason game, and I am not a Titan fan, per se.

But the refs made a horrible call on a supposed touch back. #20 was a player knocked out of bounds, and they said he downed the ball, but he didn't--he was in the end zone--no where near the ball.

Anyway the play was obviously blown, but their network covered it up. Didn't show the complete replays, but had plenty of time to do so. I had Tivo, and it took 2 seconds for me to go back and see how horribly wrong they got it. Guess it isn't a challengeable play, or Fisher didn't see the need in it.

The NFL broadcasting their own games is a huge conflict of interest. Just make themselves and the refs look good.

***stepping of soap box***

If it wasn't for the NFL Network, you would be watching it right now on the Titans network.

Another reason I don't like a league broadcasting their own games.

I am all for their other shows and rebroadcasts, but they should not broadcast games.

One more thing, having a Gumball/Collinsworth team should be a crime to humanity.

I do agree that NFL Network is terrible. I use to have it, and the coverage was absolutely terrible.
