NBC to use "Skycam angle" For Steelers/Titans

[JimHarbaugh'ssoakedtissue]

Note to directors of football telecasts: jumping from one camera angle to another just to prove you can do it gets pretty annoying after a while.

Maybe it's me, but I felt like it took more effort to watch and enjoy the game.

Wasn't just you and was hard to watch for me. I'm not saying can in it but save it for the game of the week or something to that effect. I don't think it's cool for live games.

I don't think they will adapt it on a larger scale, because the average viewer doesn't seem to like it.

Personally, I like it and never really sweat not having a yellow line, as we never had that back in the 80's and I don't get it in real time in youth or highschool games I am at. I guess I am just used to judging by eye or waiting for refs to mark it off. At the end of the day, if you broadcast the game upside down, I would flip upside down on my recliner to watch the game, so broadcast it and I will watch it.

Yea the skycam view won't be used on Sundays anytime soon, I could see it being the norm for TNF starting next season. Casual fans could slowly but surely like it.

Maybe I'm just old school and also hate the new Firefox upgrade as well.

I don't think they'll make a full switch right away but expect to see more of it gradually worked in there until it eventually grows on everyone
