Wednesday night's Sounds of The Game - Powered by BOSE - segment will feature the Best of NFL FILMS Week 7 wires, including audio from QB Andy Dalton in the Bengals' win over the Browns.

Each week NFL TURNING POINT is built around select NFL matchups from the previous weekend, and focuses on the crucial "turning point" moments that ultimately defined the outcome of each game. The show also features anatomy-of-a-play type segments and long-form game-of-the-week style narratives that include pre-game and post-game access, sideline sounds, jaw-dropping cinematography and incredible storytelling that is synonymous with NFL Films.

During the 2016-17 season NBCSN will air a total of 21 NFL TURNING POINT episodes. The season finale, scheduled to air on Wednesday, February 8, 2017, will look back at the "turning point" of SUPER BOWL LI.
