Road to the Super Bowl & Phil Simms All Iron Team - In HDTV on CBS!

Ken H · 02-04-07, 02:34 AM

More in HD from CBS on Super Bowl Sunday 2007.

ROAD TO THE SUPER BOWL
12 noon ET
Edited from over 1000 miles of 16mm film, ROAD TO THE SUPER BOWL highlights NFL head coaches and countless players outfitted with NFL Films microphones. The one-hour special features all of the fingertip catches, the diving goal-line plunges and lineman clashes from the 2006 season in NFL Films singular slow-motion cinematography.

PHIL SIMMS ALL-IRON TEAM: THE DIFFERENCE MAKERS
1pm ET
Throughout the 86 years of the NFL, thousands of players have represented the league, their teams and respective home cities. They have scored touchdowns, kicked field goals, made tackles, blocks and interceptions - but how many of those players made a difference? CBS Sports' lead NFL analyst and former N.Y. Giants Super Bowl XXI MVP Phil Simms, and his broadcast partner, Jim Nantz, host the selection of 12 players and one coach who best represent the qualities of Iron Men and Difference Makers. Also contributing to the show is THE EARLY SHOW's Hannah Storm with a special interview of Super Bowl XXII MVP Doug Williams. The All-Iron Team will consist of 12 players who made a difference in their team's winning or losing a championship, as well as how the game is played today by redefining their position, turning around a franchise and raising a city's hopes, and making a difference in their community by helping the less fortunate. [The All-Iron Trophy is an old fashioned iron emblematic of Simms' obsession with ironing. According to his mother, as a child Phil pressed his football and baseball uniforms, and to this day remains committed to creases.]

Road to the Super Bowl was very interesting, a very well produced show from NFL Films.

homcom · 02-04-07, 01:04 PM

Golf so easy a caveman could do it, great open for Phil Simms' show.

Yes, NFL Films always delivers the goods. Excellent choice by CBS.

I've been getting lots of audio dropouts and macroblocking on both The Road to the Super Bowl and All Iron Team. Anyone else seeing this? I've already rebooted my Motorola cable box once this morning and may have to do it again. It sure looks like it's a Charter Cable problem(typical!). KTVN-DT Reno via Charter Cable.

No, it's been solid as a rock in Detroit, OTA & Comcast.

Thanks for the info. I'm not able to get OTA signals from where I live, so I've had to go with cable. I can't wait until E* picks up Reno HD locals so I can get rid of Charter.

More live updates from Dolphin Stadium.

Looks like Shannon Sharpe is contending with Michael Irvin from last year's Super Bowl for the biggest necktie knot in Super Bowl, and maybe TV, history.

silverbullet89 · 02-04-07, 01:41 PM

I saw that, too. Funny.
