Bryce has his first NFL TD throw and Hurst threw the ball into the stands?

Did they just refer to us as an expansion team? that was 30 years ago. 28 if you count actual seasons these announcers are horrible

totally happy to go to a different thread if you want to go deeper. Kinda have to deal with the topic in everyday life.

Prime time games are different. I did not mention ESPN or NBC coverage.

I’m not doubting 4k is available. saying the FOX and CBS NFL broadcasts only film in 1080p. If you’re getting 4k on those broadcasts, it’s being upscaled by YTTV

It’s upscaled. NFL FOX and CBS only film in 1080p. Anything NFL from those networks in 4k is not native.

Nobody gets 4k unless it’s upscaled. They networks aren’t filming in 4k. It was touched upon in the YouTube Sunday Ticket thread. FOX broadcasts in 720p. CBS in 1080i. Sunday Ticket will be in 1080p HD

Just comparing this first drive to what we saw last season? me likey

Not used to that after the last few years

Based on how many times they've thrown some love to Bryce and the Panthers this morning on the FOX pre-show, we really might be starting a new era

(Catching up: FOX leads with Bryce, both imagery and commentary)

Pichana is underrated. Pic looks good

The NFL is going after DirecTV for deceptive advertising. The NFL released a statement to the new Kelce Directv ad saying: “YouTube and YouTube TV are the only place to go for fans at home wanting to subscribe to NFL Sunday Ticket. We are aware of consumer confusion resulting from advertising in the marketplace. The NFL wants its millions of fans to know where to get NFL Sunday Ticket and that we stand against deceptive advertising." In response, DirecTV said Sunday Ticket can be accessed through the YouTube TV app on the DirecTV service.

there are 11 pages of comments in advance of the Week 1 game. Seems like excitement is brewing

Nobody ever said you needed to buy YouTube TV to get Sunday Ticket. You get a discount if you had YTTV, but ST is available separately -- it's purchased as a separate YouTube Channel. Totally understand that there is confusion in the marketing of "Youtube" vs "Youtube TV". It's horrible branding from a consumer viewpoint. DirecTV is advertising that their users can watch ST, but it's because you can use the YouTube APP on the DirecTV boxes. You still need to buy ST from YouTube, separate from DirecTV. If you did drop satellite for YouTube TV, I'd say you probably did the right thing, pricewise.

Sunday Ticket will be offering 45m-long condensed versions of the games starting at midnight ET the day the game airs. No ads and edited to just the action on the field. So if you miss a game (or, want to zip through for a specific highlight), this is another way to get there.

It's supposed to be funny. [NARRATOR: IT WASN'T]

Uh... They're not wrong? The Panthers could surprise the league with a playoff run, or not, that’s just how this stuff goes. https://www.theonion.com/2023-nfl-season-preview-nfc-1850806239/slides/81 Also, not that funny a piece for a comedy site. They could have been funnier across the board

Explains why he seemed comfortable doing a walk-n-talk opener and leading the talks. Its definitely seems more podcast-like relaxed on the set. If they're only going to have about 40 minutes to showcase 16 game summaries by NFL Films due to commercial breaks, that would be... uh... 2 major games @ 3 min each, 10 games @ 2 min each, 4 games @ 1 min... that will leave just 10 minutes of time to fill. Totally doable

Stupid local CW needs to fix their commercial insertion timing. Seems to cut the show off mid-segment. Hopefully this is fixable in future episodes

Oooh, Chad has some things to say about Vikings coaching their rookie WR.... big contrast to the Reich article shared earlier in coaching styles, and Chad did not seems to be a fan.

It's not so bad...yet. they're having fun chatting.

Airs Tuesday nights on the CW at 8p. For once, no cable subscription needed to catch "the show the pros watch" It's definitely been revamped from the SHO version, which seemed to have gotten too full of themselves. Epi 1 is covering the Super Bowl so far, and it's been good conversations. The hosts need a bit more polish, but some of their convo has sounded less rehearsed and more player-to-player rather than studio analysts. One segment in, and what I thought would be a train wreck of new-to-TV people isn't so bad. Chad Ochocinco is the elder statesman of the show Chris Long, Jay Cutler, Ryan Clark, Channing Crowder round out the panel Looking forward to what they'll do once the season starts. Hopefully with commercial breaks, they can focus more on games and less filler talk like the previous versions resorted to.

That's what one website is saying. https://bvmsports.com/2023/09/06/5-most-likely-first-year-2024-pro-football-hof-inductees/7/

Did Burns participate in today's practice? That would be an indicator of readiness to play for Atlanta vs not.
