Show history
Point After
has been on NFL Network from its beginning during the
2003 season. The original version was basically an automated program that aired on Sunday nights. A
voice-over announcer briefly described the games of that NFL Sunday, then the comments of the players and coaches in that game aired.
When NFLN revamped for 2006, mainly to mark the start of
live regular-season play-by-play, this program became
NFL Scoreboard
and
Point After
became a more polished five-day-a-week show. Also, college soundbites were added as part of an additional emphasis on collegiate football.
During the
2006 season, Mora went at odds against his own son,
Jim L. Mora, on
Point After
, when he called
Atlanta Falcons quarterback
Michael Vick a "coach killer."
Successor
In
2008, NFL Network cancelled this program and replaced it with
Team Cam
, which has a similar format but which also includes contributions from
beat writers and
bloggers. The host is
Randy Moss (the former
ESPN sportscaster, not the New England Patriots wide receiver
of the same name). It airs weekdays at 4 p.m. Eastern time for two hours an episode.
