'NFL Full Contact' tru-ly Worth Watching

"Monday Night Football" ended weeks ago, but the NFL continues to provide some of the best-sports related programming on TV at the start of the work week.

With "NFL Full Contact," which airs on at 10 p.m. Mondays on tru TV, the league provides a controlled behind-the-scenes look at some of the season's biggest events. The series opened two weeks ago with a look back at the season-opening concert, game and related activities in Pittsburgh. Last week, the first NFL game at Cowboys Stadium was the focus.

This week, the show chronicles the annual American Bowl in London between the Patriots and Buccaneers.

Sure, the shows are old news, but they're not news programs. Thanks to the talent of NFL Films storytellers, the games just provide a backdrop for what happens around them -- everything from the mundane to the outrageous.

By investing an hour of time, fans can come away with a better appreciation for all aspects of the NFL and what it does. Because the show does that, it also reaches its ultimate goal -- further spreading the gospel of pro football through the controlled lenses of the league.
