Did anyone notice that after Barber's run on third and short, it looked like a close play and the announcers were talking about the measurement, and the camera went with tight closeups of the faces of some Giants defenders? Not even a replay of the run or anything to give the fans a clue about how close it was to a first down. Poor direction, IMO.

What are some of your gripes regarding game presentation by the networks?

ABC way over does hte production

Graphic after every play, charts, stats, replays. its too much.

They dont even show you the formations. All you see is BEn Roethlisbergers fav. food, and next split second theres a paly and you dont know whos lined up where

I think all the networks are doing a poor job of showing the plays.

I want to see more of the defensive formations. I'd like to see a replay from a different angle after every play.

That view of the Cortez game winning kick was awful.

Agreed - Some of the coverage lately has been pretty pathetic. Alot of mistakes yesterday I saw in some games w/ players names-scores-teams etc.

You would think things would ironed out a bit better.

One other thing - has anyone been getting bad feeds from ABC/FOX during Sundays games?

I hate viewing sky cam shots during a live play. Please use those shots for replays not during live play.

I thought it sucked as well. There were a few times they would pick up the game after a play had already been run. I'm sitting on the couch thinking *** happened! Why is it not 1st down?
