Inside The Huddle

Thought there was a hostage situation on this weeks show based on Neils voice. Good show, inconsistent sound quality. You’d think Sky Sports could buy Neil and Jeff a decent microphone.

I’ve tried several times to start listening to this show each week but every time I have to stop before the end of the episode. The comments that Neil and Phoebe make about the games are so basic and offer very little insight or analysis that isn’t blindingly obvious. Jeff offers more insight, unsurprisingly but it’s not enough to make the show bearable. I listen to a lot of the US based NFL podcasts and whilst they are of variable quality there are some that put Inside The Huddle to shame. It feels like Sky are trying to “dumb-down” the coverage and have been for a long time. I guess they want to appeal to as many casual fans as possible. But they really don’t cater for the UK fans who want more than just a beginners programme or podcast. Can’t recommend.

I remember when this show used to be informative. Its now boring and dull and mainly used to try and push other shows on you. No more weekly previews and reviews just Neil thinking he is Hollywood. Very sad

Great show and listened for years. But in the week 18 coverage they missed talking about the biggest game of the week. Was it because Neil’s Miami lost perhaps…
