Super User 5bass Posted September 20, 2010 Super User Posted September 20, 2010 I dont have DirectTV anymore so up until now I've been forced to watch whatever (usually crappy) NFL game that the local networks showed. Well, I just got NFL Red Zone today. I was skeptical about it at first because I wasn't sure how it was going to be shown and I surely wasn't expecting it to work like it did. It's well worth $40 bucks a season for anybody who may be on the fence about getting it. I saw the important parts of every game as they happened and the announcer guy filled you in on the situation of each game as they switched to it. If the game they were showing went to commercial, Red Zone immeditely went to another game because there are NO COMMERCIALS on NFL Red Zone. Also, when there's a timeout or instant replay going on, they switch to a game that is in play so you dont fall asleep. They double screen it when there's simultaneous 'important' plays (3rd downs, 4th downs, etc) It's 100% football, all day and you see all the important plays and EVERY touchdown of EVERY game. All in HD. Best $40 bucks I ever spent. fourbizz...you might want to look into this Quote
Super User BASSclary Posted September 20, 2010 Super User Posted September 20, 2010 I'm not a big fan of it. I like to see the whole game, not just the important plays and "highlights" Quote
Super User NorcalBassin Posted September 21, 2010 Super User Posted September 21, 2010 I had no idea it was only $40 for the season. I was able to switch over to it a few times during the free NFL Ticket day on opening weekend and it was pretty cool. I'd miss too many games to lay down the cash for the full NFL Ticket package but $40 would be well worth it, especially when the "local" games are boring, during half time, commercials, etc. Quote
Super User 5bass Posted September 21, 2010 Author Super User Posted September 21, 2010 NorCal, yeah it's pretty cool the way they cover the games. It's probably a little different than most people think it is. It's definitely not for someone who wants to watch just one game in it's entirety, from kickoff to final buzzer. Quote
