Didn’t the NFL once broadcast a game without any commentary?

You beat me to it. NBC did it in the early '80s. And it was a complete flop.

I watched the game, and it wasn’t a flop. I enjoyed it so much more than Madden/Summerall/etc going on and on “BAM”, etc.

It certainly would be better than hearing Cris Collingsworth ramble about something he doesn’t seem to understand, or Jawarski, or Theisman.
