Who's going to be the Super Bowl.

He's a question -- -- -- even a simple and easy question I think in the NFC it's probably gonna be the Green Bay Packers in the AFC.

The patriots OK I love -- actually -- and that's not to dampen it.

Let's talk about the business and the payrolls in football -- particular Peyton Manning.

His -- is huge break your contract multi million dollars does not play what's the buzz about him right now.

Well the buzz is that He may be out for a long time and that franchise is completely built around this one -- -- So they're gonna have really an uphill climb to try to stay in contention.

And it's it's -- can't bring in a -- back with 38 years old -- Kerry Collins who with semi retired and hope that.

You know that they're gonna keep this this ship rolling it's going to be very very difficult for them they open up with you -- Very winnable game the Cleveland Browns -- extremely winnable game and then be.

Pittsburgh Steelers so if they can sort of hold on until patent healthy date they may be OK let's.

-- values.

The the -- how was it was not able team in the NFL but the Redskins are number two that the Redskins have been criticized.

For taken on some veterans -- they're making -- right move.

The -- like to make a splash every single year Daniel Snyder is just very attracted to these guys with big names.

He's made a lot of money by naming -- stadium as we all know it's FedEx Field so.

He often gets in trouble for going after these veteran players who have steep price tags and don't necessarily always deliver it's always been at.

A struggle for the Redskins they haven't been very good as a -- You know up and just that side if you figured -- cowboys valued at one point 85 billion by Forbes magazine's new round of the Packers -- tonight -- -- They're number nine guided a billion a little over a billion.

Who won that NFL walked out strike which side won more pan and will we see any of -- hurting the start of the season.

I think those kind of really 5050 the players got a lot of things that they wanted and so -- the owners.

I think you'll see with the affect of the locked out we're seeing something already with a whole lot of injuries.

Injuries that if these guys have the benefit of off season.

Training programs for example we could have.

Maybe they could have avoided some of this but I think the owners feel they also you know made out quite that I got you mentioned the Dallas -- that is are you make.

-- -- those multi millionaire taking go out and take a run on their own because the training at the table had been locked out they weren't able to work.

I thought of that money they ought to get -- work out on their own right.

Well a lot of players didn't do that they had players only.

Training session so.

These guys did go out and worked out but there something different about an organized.

Training program I mean everything's laid out for you you have access to the facility which means you have access to therapists.

If you've been hurt and you know it's hitting the field evidence of.

Fans are really most excited about percent back.

I think -- -- I did about football.

It was almost taken away from us and you know there's nothing better than the NFL my husband and I debate this all the time He -- that the NBA but we all know it's not even close to.

So I think it has a lot to do with just.

Even television viewer ship look at the Super Bowl a 111 million people watched the highest rated program in the history of television.

It's just so popular in its popular because it's a good product.

Pam Oliver thank you so much for joining us -- -- watching of course on live television.
