How is that Peter's fault? What was he supposed to do? Call the network out over it?

In case it wasn't clear, he was on the panel at the time. If he couldn't impress on Sabol to go with a different clip, he certainly could have remarked on it

How do you know he didn't mention that to Sabol? I think the powers that be would frown upon him bringing that up on the actual show though. Can't blame him at all for not bringing it up. Hell, maybe he didn't even know what clip they were going to use at the time.

I am aware I'm making some assumptions here, but this wasn't a run of the mill NFL Channel chat show, it was an NFL films production, in the vein of 'America's Game' enshrining the best 100 players of all time, crafted with care by Sabol and a select camp of 'experts' to stand the test of time. And it was pretty clear that King was intimately involved.
The shows run had some amazing footage that was revelatory to even someone who's seen as much footage as me, notably one of the most amazing catches I've ever seen Gonzalez make where he does a 360 in the air between two defenders so close their torsos were touching him and snags it about 8 inches over both of their reach. I've seen every second of the Chiefs on the field since 1990 and had never seen that particular angle before, and it's now my iconic 'mind's eye' image of Gonzo and will probably be so going forward.
Also, they had brilliant footage of Manning throwing pregame/practice throw after pregame/practice throw, intercut with him making the precise same throw in big games, making the case that his preparation was his edge.
Then to make the case that AJ is a future all time great over footage they knew to be 'the worst interference call of the season' was just plain lazy at best.

Perhaps I'm being overly sensitive, but I'd just gone through watching five hours of a GREAT program that moved me to tears several times, then to be that inspired then that disgusted, I had to vent.

On the whole, though I wholeheartedly recommend that series to anyone who hasn't seen it. However critical you can be of the picks they made, they assembled strong cases in each and every instance. Every player selected got their VERY BEST work highlighted. It wasn't just the stock highlights everyone was familiar with, it was all the little moments of brilliance otherwise forgotten to history. The precise moment each player was at their most explosive, or elusive, or driven, etc.

Whether or not it was a PI or not, all that matters is Brandon Flowers got beat like the second tier cornerback that he is.

Nnamdi would never get beat like that. Never.

This whole week you've spouted some of the stupidest shit. Are you intentionally trying to win "Stupidest Poster Of The Year"? You've got my nomination.

That is a truly stupid post. Flowers didn't get beat. Johnson got separation by pushing off.

Typical Raiders fan.

You do realize that flowers was actually a tad ahead of andre down the field right?

This is where Brandon Flowers lack of physical talent comes into play.

Flowers is slow, short and not physical at all. A beast like Andre Johnson simply used his big body to out muscle Flowers for the ball.

Nnamdi is 6'2, long legs, long arms and fast as hell. He would never let Andre Johnson do that to him.

Just accept the facts, Chief fans.

No chiefs fans take away from Nnamdi, he's a great CB. I'm sure you would love Flowers on your team.

Quit being a troll. Flowers has been a shutdown CB in this league for 1.5 seasons now. The best WR will eventually burn ANY CB on a given play, including one of the best, Nnamdi.

Actually, if Nnamdi were in the same situation it would have happened too.
