Billzfan23 Posted July 17, 2019 Posted July 17, 2019 I'm thinking the NFL needs to embed tiny helmet cameras in the face mask of every QB so that we get a wide angle of exactly what quarterbacks see when a play is going on. The NFL often points out when a receiver is running uncovered and will frequently replay it. I think it would be so cool to see what the QB sees (over linemen, to the sidelines, etc). Would be cool to see the pressure coming up the middle with some sound. 3
US Egg Posted July 17, 2019 Posted July 17, 2019 I think a camera on the centers posterior be a good way to see how a QB reads a pre snap defense. 4 1
Marv Levy Posted July 17, 2019 Posted July 17, 2019 I like the idea but only for replays or a small split screen in the bottom or something for a short time. A whole game wouldn't be to good I'm thinking. The NHL has the "Ref Cam" on their helmets sometimes but they only use it sparingly and not in many games. When is the NFL going to put a camera on the endzone pylon perpendicular to the goal line so Refs, and fans can confirm the player "broke the plane"? I swear everytime they have the replay there its always at some funky angle or not a good view to make the correct call. Cmon, NFL, its not that difficult right?! 1
KD in CA Posted July 17, 2019 Posted July 17, 2019 I'm sure soon enough they'll be able to implant cameras right on the QB's corena...... 1
RoyBatty is alive Posted July 17, 2019 Posted July 17, 2019 I think a helmet cam would be marginal, too jerky and moving around , probably get motion sickness watching it.. QBs look with their eyes anyway, 4

QBs look with their eyes anyway, Expand This is what I’m thinking. The catchers cam in baseball, it still gives a slight walleye vision and anyone more than 50 feet away looks tiny. The view just wouldn’t be good. 1
Rocket94 Posted July 17, 2019 Posted July 17, 2019 Why not? Seems like everyone else is doing it now.
Buffalophil1948 Posted July 17, 2019 Posted July 17, 2019 I could see this in practice so the coaches can see what JA is seeing and what he is not. A good coaching tool but other than that, it's a no.
Sherlock Holmes Posted July 18, 2019 Posted July 18, 2019 (edited) We already have to deal with watching Brady... I don't want to see 3 hours of him staring at other men's asses or swapping spit with his teammates and Belicheat. Edited July 18, 2019 by Sherlock Holmes 1
nickrage Posted July 18, 2019 Posted July 18, 2019 (edited) Too young to remember the world league? they had helmet cams way back then Edited July 18, 2019 by nickrage

MacGyver Posted July 18, 2019 Posted July 18, 2019 (edited) There is software out there that can take out the jerkiness of the video. No idea how long it takes to process however. Edited July 18, 2019 by MacGyver

SoCal Deek Posted July 18, 2019 Posted July 18, 2019 Let’s stick with the Ref cam so that when the fans yell “what the heck are you looking at?” ...we’ll all know. ?
Call_Of_Ktulu Posted July 18, 2019 Posted July 18, 2019 My work is trying to make it so that we have to wear a very small camera on our shoulder. Our union will NEVER allow this so I vote no for any camera attached to a player.
ddaryl Posted July 18, 2019 Posted July 18, 2019 (edited) They should have built in helmet cams on all players for every conceivable angle On 7/18/2019 at 12:42 PM, Call_Of_Ktulu said: My work is trying to make it so that we have to wear a very small camera on our shoulder.
