Complaint from the UK

SaintGup · 11-23-2017, 04:45 PM

First of all, let me wish you all a very joyous Thanksgiving. Now, to my moan; I am watching the LA at Dallas and even though I have seen it before, the camera angle from the sky cam, what I believe they are calling 'Madden Cam' , is useless as you cannot see all players. Please tell me that this isn't something the TV companies are going to use from here on in?

A CBS spokesperson said: "We will continue to use SkyCam aggressively but there are no changes planned to our core coverage."

SkyCam unlikely to catch on as the primary NFL view - NFL Nation- ESPN

73 cameras on the field but they still get calls wrong... let’s fix this first.

With the modern day technology we have available, we should be able to select and change the view. I personally would like the pic zoomed out a little more so I can better see the plays develop.

i like sky cam for replays only and FG

I'd rather see the whole field and watch the plays develop. But then again, Roger Godhell has to screw with things to insure that no one is happy.

I hate it. I like the side view or the 'side-22' I think they call it, from a fan perspective.

It's interesting and sometimes educational to see all the other angles, but I want the game on side-22 or whatever.

Somebody else said it and I agree. The NFL should put more cameras at games and let subscribers choose their feed. Another way to squeeze money from the fans. You'd figure Roger would be all over it.

I want to see what the players and coaches are seeing on those tablets and switch over to that view when I want. They don't want us seeing that for some reason. I guess it takes the polish look of it away and breaks things down to the point the magic show is over. Anyone can understand what is going on with that view on every single play.

Another complaint from a UK Saints fan!

I notice that the Saints v Rams game is going to be shown on sky tv this weekend.

That usually means it WON'T be on NFL gamepass AGAIN!

I don't have sky tv so it looks like another Saints game I won't be able see.

Why do they keep doing this, especially when NFL Gamepass advertise their package as

"see your favourite team in ALL their regular season matchups". Grrrrrrrrrr!

Sorry to moan! GEAUX SAINTS!!!
