The NFL Network has decided to low-key its programming related to Sunday's big Pats-Colts tilt.
The will be offering a modest, um, 36 1/2 hours of stuff.
It would have been only 35 1/2, but fortunately for fans anticipating the game the switch to Standard Time Sunday will allow for two separate cracks at the 1 a.m. to 2 a.m. hour that night.
"This is what separates NFL Network,” Charles Coplin, VP of programming, said in a news release.
The release made no mention of programming plans related to the 49ers-Falcons game.
