who else hated the poo out of fox's camera coverage

every once in a while networks like to get cute and use those overhead cameras to cover live plays. usually they're relegated to special teams plays, which is fine.

on sunday they kept overhead, POV coverage on numerous offensive snaps. absolutely fuging idiotic gimmick that prevents the viewer from watching the full play on the field. much like self-indulgent cinematographers need to go to hell for unduly influencing a film with distracting shot setups, fox needs to keep the side cameras on during snaps and use the overheads for replays only.

I could be mistaken but during the game they mentioned they were having some technical difficulties with some of the cameras. If you noticed during the second quarter the camera was on the fritz from the traditional angle.

Agree 100%. It's fine to do it maybe once or twice a game in certain situations but they did it on like 5 plays straight for us and others as well. Was way overboard and over the top, like they're filming for Any Given Sunday rather than airing a live football game. Show us a regular view so we can see the damn plays

I was complaining about these to my wife (who gave exactly zero shits) during the game Sunday.  After the first or second time I ever saw them it was just an annoyance.  Even if what I wanted to see was in the frame changing the perspective on the fly made it annoying to digest what I saw without having to back it up and watch it again.

I don't like change damnit

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
