Prolly because they have the worst game day presentation.

No other network does the view of Niagara Falls from the Ralph as well (and as often) as Fox.  I would hope you remember and respect that. 🤨

It would make sense if they had the super bowl, but I thought cbs had it.


 

With expanded pkayoffs

 

nbc get 2

espn get 1

cbs get 2

fox get 1

 

next weekend—4 games

nbc gets 1

fox coukd get 2 next weekend Then cbs get just 1.

if cbs gets 2 games next week then the pattern has changed and the same network will get 2 games

 

thus pattern could change further under next TV contracts. Such as ESPN gets a divisional game and nflN airs a WC game.

Their cameras/picture quality are far superior. If you stream direct from their Fox App you can get 4k as well.

NBC > CBS > FOX >>>> ESPN imo.  ESPN should never be allowed to broadcast another game, they're borderline unwatchable.

 

Im gonna watch the Nickelodeon broadcast today because why not???

If CBS gets only 1 game next weekend then surely our game will be on NBC on Saturday.  No way CBS won’t want to air the KC game (especially if it’s vs Ravens).

I’d prefer to listen to Tony Romo than anyone else. Especially Cris Collinsworth

ESPN pretty bad with Riddick as analyst...he uses cliches the entire game

I like Louis. I like anyone who has a Bills connection. Brother Robb

Fox is BY FAR the worst.........their picture quality is terrible.    When you add in the compression done by the regional networks the Fox broadcast is woeful.

 

I used to think it was just in WNY but they cheat on the picture everywhere.

 

NBC and ESPN broadcast consistently beautiful pictures.

 

CBS is better than Fox but still inconsistent.

Only thing about CBS in OTA is transmission.   Especially here in Chicago.   Hard to pick up, especially in digital age when it's all or nothing.   Old analog "snow" is better than no picture at all...

 

...But it has always been the way CBS transmitted as I was told by an old ham radio guy I used to work with... If I recall, I think he said they are only station here to broadcast VHF. So, to sum everything up, they are just hard to pick up with an antenna.  Mix in digital all or nothing, and it's a real PITA when I am trying to catch a CBS broadcast OTA @ work...

Most of the NFL TV crews these days are straight up bad.

 

Fox is among the worst. 

 

Thank goodness Nantz and Romo are doing the Chicago/NO game now, as I otherwise don't have a ton of interest in this game.  I assume NO will win easily and the NFC stuff is just not as relevant to Bills play.

 

But I'll watch b/c of the announcers.

I’m fine with limiting how many games Fox gets-I thought their camera angles were weird yesterday-not a fan of whatever that Madden style thing they were doing during the game 

 

They're using cinema cameras with large sensors and shooting wide open to produce shallow depth of field. I love it.

Actually decided to watch the Nick version with the Kids and it is not bad.  A little crazy with the graphics, but I like Nate and Noah Eagle (Ian’s son) and the girl from All That has been not bad.

For what it is I think it is really well done. 

 

I would like to see an HBO broadcast with R-rated commentary for adults!

Only thing I like about fox is the jam band intros and outros.  Not a fan of troys work.

 

The tweezer reprise intro for the falcons in the super bowl was so cool.

 

It's such a regular thing now that my wife just started saying "yes I heard it" before I even ask at this point.
