The best part of NFLN is the offseason where it is the only place to get an NFL fix. America's Game is one of the best series of shows I've ever seen. NFL Replay is great (though it's painful enough to watch most SKins games once this season). Put up your Dukes is a suprisingly great show. For those of us outside the DC area it is also the only way we can watch PreSeason games
Maybe instead of replaying the same Total Access (which really is a fairly surface show for casual fans) they could have more of these other shows for the more fanatical individual.
I agree with daseal to a point in that the NFL Network's constant repeats gets old very fast. However, rypper11 hits the nail on the head in saying that it is really the only venue that gives us 'Skins fans an opportunity to see pre-season games in addition to an off-season NFL fix.

I just discovered that I can subscribe to a certain package on DirecTV that will allow me to see most of the CSN (Comcast Sports Network) broadcasts. This includes much of the local D.C. talk shows that discuss the Redskins (i.e.-Post Game Show, Coaches Corner, etc.) which I would never see here in Atlanta. But, it doesn't allow me to see any of the pro games, pre-season games, etc. It's still pretty cool though. I feel like I'm living in Maryland / D.C. again when I see all of the local advertising and such.
