NFL GameDay Highlights & NFL GameDay Final on NFL Network
(Airs Sundays at 7:30 & 11:30 PM ET)
Super Bowl XLIX Host City Announced on NFL Network
*** A special edition of NFL Network’s NFL Total Access live from the owners meeting Tuesday, October 11 covers the announcement of the host city for Super Bowl XLIX. Coverage begins at 12:45 PM ET.
“A team that’s motivated like this now, you never know what kind of damage they can do. This is a dangerous team and it’s a team that might win one for the Gipper. They did today.”
— Steve Mariucci on the 3-2 Oakland Raiders, who won a day following the passing of the legendary Al Davis
“They’ve already turned it around from ‘just going long baby,’ to running the football while Al [Davis] was here and they’ll continue that. That is what will put them in the playoffs.”
— Michael Irvin on the Oakland Raiders, who rank second in the league in rushing yards with 161.8 yards per game
“In Green Bay, this team not only plays well together, they love being together and that carries over on the football field. That’s why when I see this team, I see something special.”
— Michael Irvin on the defending Super Bowl-champion Green Bay Packers
“To me, the most underrated player in the game.”
— Fran Charles on Bills running back Fred Jackson, who had 111 yards rushing and 85 yards receiving in the 31-24 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles
“Rex Grossman may be the best quarterback right now in the NFC East. And the team with the most balance may be the Washington Redskins.”
— Deion Sanders on the first-place Washington Redskins
“This team is in total disarray.”
— Deion Sanders on the 1-4 Philadelphia Eagles
“I’m going to eat my words because I thought the Washington Redskins were going to be the doormat of this division – the Washington Redskins are the class of this division right now.”
— Deion Sanders on the NFC East
“These guys aren’t stopping anyone. We can attribute that to your defensive coordinator who’s never been a defensive coordinator, but these guys aren’t tackling, they’re not making plays. I don’t understand it. … There’s no way you can win with all of those things going badly on the defensive side of the ball.”
— Deion Sanders on the Philadelphia Eagles’ defense, which allowed 331 total net yards in the 31-24 loss to the Buffalo Bills
“I don’t know if Sanchez is the guy right now to take this team to the next level. He didn’t look horrific today, he never looks bad but he doesn’t look like the guy that can get you over the hump.”
— Deion Sanders on Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez, who threw for 166 yards and two touchdowns in the 30-21 loss to the New England Patriots
“These two have got something special going on. The question is, when are they going to turn into wins?”
— Rich Eisen on Panthers quarterback Cam Newton and wide receiver Steve Smith
“Right now he’s the best tight end in the game.”
— Deion Sanders on Saints tight end Jimmy Graham, who had eight receptions for 129 yards
“I said at the beginning of the season I have never seen a team under this kind of pressure.”
— Michael Irvin on the 2-3 New York Jets
“The way [Curtis] Painter has been playing, it says he should have gotten the start at the genesis of this season. Maybe Indy would be in this thing.”
— Michael Irvin on Colts quarterback Curtis Painter, who threw for 277 yards and two touchdowns in the loss to the Kansas City Chiefs
“I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything like the whole stands calling for a backup quarterback like this. That’s a real issue.”
— Michael Irvin on the fan reaction to Broncos backup quarterback Tim Tebow entering the game against the Chargers
“When Hines is involved in the gameplan, these guys win.”
— Deion Sanders on Steelers wide receiver Hines Ward, who caught two touchdown passes in Pittsburgh’s 38-17 win over the Tennessee Titans
