  1. 1. Would you enjoy seeing a coaches camera/all 22 player camera full time on live broadcast?

    • Yes full time
      2
    • Yes but only as a PIP view in the corner of the broadcast
      3
    • No
      4
    • Replays on NFL.com is good enough

Anyone else get annoyed at tv coverage? Specifically- After each play, the camera goes to close ups of playmakers and coaches. While showing the close ups, we're missing the after play activity (pushing/shoving/arguments), personel changes on the offense, and defensive personel counter moves. Usually the network gets back to the all 22 camera view just before the play starts, which isn't nearly enough time to see what personel and formation is on the field.  

 

I would prefer a full time camera that shows most of the field or at least the section of the field where the action is. I would even take a PIP view where that wide angle is always in the corner of the screen. 

 

Agree or Disagree? Thoughts?

I'd like an all 22 video for film purposes if I get bored, but if it were like that during the entire broadcast people would get really bored with it. The casual football fan just likes to see pretty colors, big hits, and players' faces.

Cheerleaders, cheerleaders, you forgot to mention the cheerleaders.....

TV isnt into the finer points of the game..they want drama..and that's faces...

....I think if we could ask,,they'd tell us that the games arent being telvised so we can follow every detail..

they're being televised purely for dramatic effect and spectacle..

I agree...on-camera sideline reporters are unnecessary...(and news can be relayed to the booth)

...Shots of guys on the sidelines are unnecessary....its the guys on the field that matter..

....off field reaction shots are unnecessary,,,,

..but its a TV show

    • For your consideration….   Nobody knew who Ebukam was when the Colts signed him week 2 last year.   And nobody knew who Denico Autry was when the Colts signed him in week 2.   “Who?” Was the most popular comment both times.  They turned out really well.      Im not sayin Ballard is going to do it again this year, it hasn’t happened every year, all I’m saying it’s happened from time to time so it’s still possible that CB will find a keeper that people here will like. 
    • Could he do it?  Sure, but it is much tougher for him than most owners in the NFL.  The Colts just layed out $200 million this free agency.  I imagine over half in guaranteed money.  That’s a lot for Jim. 
    • With all that said...       
    • Spending doesn't mean you will win. You still need to spend smart and you still need to draft well and overall make good decisions.    Not spending limits you in your roster construction. I don't know why it's so hard for people to understand. The best teams in the league use ALL available avenues for improving their team. They do not limit themselves artificially with what's possible to achieve. They also concentrate resources into windows of contention. This means at any given time, if you are not spending you are competing against teams that are pouring resources into trying to win it RIGHT NOW. You will just always be at disadvantage because while 1 specific team will need to reload and take their lumps for spending too much in short period of time once in a while, the league as a whole will always have at least a few teams that are in that high spending mode chasing a window for contention.    Now... is it possible you strike gold and beat those teams while relying almost exclusively on the draft? It's possible. If you string together a few insane draft classes. But it's not very likely... 
    • This gets peddled like it means spending in FA doesn’t work. The Rams won a Super Bowl by spending. The Colts don’t spend and haven’t won bupkis since Ballard got here.    I’m not saying the Colts should just spend mindlessly and I don’t think that’s what anyone wants. But, Ballard’s gotta cover his draft misses by spending in FA otherwise we’ll never win with him at the helm.
