The NFL Network might want to invest in a five-minute delay for their broadcasts after Broncos’ head coach Josh McDaniels dropped a mother-f’ing on air Thursday night in Denver’s win over the Giants.
Here’s the video (NSFW):
The thing I don’t get is that the NFL Network wired McDainels for the game, yet still aired the unedited video on live TV. How does something like that slip through the cracks?
Executive producer Eric Weinberger tried to explain afterwards (via ESPN.com):
In an interview with The Associated Press and the Denver Post, Eric Weinberger, executive producer of the NFL Network, apologized to viewers and to McDaniels for the “terrible mistake.”
He said no one in the production trucks heard the profanity.
“No one heard it as it was said. It would never have been aired,” Weinberger said. “It was at the end of a clip, so we missed it.”
He said he heard the profanity at the same time everyone else did.
Whoops.
