BBC or Sky

BBC coverage is for people that never watch it.

Hate them going over the rules ad getting it wrong themselves....

Sky. BBC do very little for the game overall.

Anyone who watches this sport all season should show a bit of loyalty and stick to SKY imo.

I am going with BBC. I love Woodson and I felt the last couple of years they have done a solid job.

Sky have really let is slide in the last few years and I have been impressed with Arlo White and the Radio 5 coverage this season.

This is a real attempt in my opinion by the Beeb to maybe make a go of the game. They know that they will not have to pay too much to get it as the way the NFL market the game, as opposed to the Premiership, they will take less than Sky offer them if it gets mass market exposure!

Sky , sticking with the professionals instead of going back in time.

The Professionals being.............

kevin cadle, a dreadful dreadful broadcaster

that brummy bloke who has worked out what he wants to say earlier in the day and repeats it whatever the question

jeff, who I actually quite like


bbc have a far stronger panel of experts

Well Jimmy, tune into the BBC on the second Sunday next September and see what they bring you.

Sky for me, I actually quite like Kevin Cadle "let's get back to the balll game" :D

Ill support the company that plays the games throughout the season

Start off with sky, if they go on about wembley and fantasy leagues instant bbc.

JK- can't see anyway that this is the start of something for the Beeb - they haven't been interested so far so why start now?

Also it aint value for money for the beeb licence payer (even as someone who loves the nfl)

Sky for me.

I like what the beeb are trying to do, but as a long time NFL fan, I hate having to sit through the analysis and explanations aimed at the once a year, casual viewer.

Besides, it just wouldn't be the same without Nick and Kev!!

funny you should say that ICS as I have been given quiet word that they are going to make a play for it next year

Sky will be gettin it done in coverin the baw game imo

Disagree with the description of the Sky panel, and its fair to say that BBC wont analysis the game at all, they never do, they spend most the time telling the n00bs what is going on and the rules.

Nick is over there at the game (the amount that will cost they could have got the Monday Night game!) and they need to sack Cadle and get someone decent on.

Onionns

Did you not watch it the other year with Carlson and Woodson, it was brilliant.

BBC - no contest, miles better, and no ridiculous breaks all the while.

They ALWAYS send someone to the Superbowl.

You seem rather upset at the whole Sky layout of NFL it seems. If BBC were so good why didnt they bid for MNF? Oh yeah they don't give a f00k about the sport until the Superbowl

I did Jimmy, watched BBC last time, and I think Mike is a hero, but I hate all the rules being explained, it does my nut in

BBC is for people who don't usually watch NFL whereas Sky don't need to bother explaining the rules and everything and just get on with the game. The only advantage of the BBC coverage is no ad breaks.

well i am shockedand annoyed that the Beebs volume of coverage will be better than Skys.

Radio 5 build up starts at 9pm and even BBC 1 starts ten minutes before Skys!

Their Superbowl preview largely revolved around Cecil sitting on an alligator and picture of birds on a beach and of Payton playing in Leicester!

Why cant they get Carlson involved and do the fcukin job properly!

Yes but no ads mean more rules being explained.

Id rather have the rat advert

Werent the beeb pics slightly ahead last year

I'll believe it when I see it (as opposed to hearing it on 5 Live ;) )

Jimmy K....Cecil and the alligator was quality TV!!

Is it Rishi and Claire presenting the bbc show?

what time is kick off ?

Mr L

To be fair, it was hilarious and the old guy was still quite agile..........cecil not the alligator hahaha

11.25, but you know what it's like...

cant stand the presenters or coverage on either of them in all honesty. as i can only watch sky with a 1 minute delay il watch bbc. is the carlson on it?

jeez do people still listen to the radio , can't see the point of a radio for anything in life apart from music .

If Colin Murray isn't fronting either stations' coverage I will not be watching the game.

wherever mike goes, i'll follow

the most complex, brilliant man ever imo



and as for those bigging up sky, are you after free subs?

Oh yeah, If Sky is miles behind BBC then I will watch BBC.... thats the only reason id watch bbc

Hayden boxing on the radio is excellent

i love the radio, often listen to football on the radio rather than watch it on my sky or espn

SM who you got for the first touch-dine

Welcome to the NA forum Nilsson Schmilsson..........

In the scheme of things I suspect we're only having a fun debate to kill some time whilst we wait , we all know it matters not a jot which channel you watch as it won't affect your enjoyment and fairly sure you'll see the same game with the same scoreline.......so each to their own I guess.

ty :)

Peter Thomas, so it is, fawwon. The money is dine.

I wish sky just gave us just everything from the American feed tbh, analis and everything

btw, i think this is a closer game than a lot of pundits suggest. that clown brummy was suggesting a colts blow outon the sky preview.

if the saints can run the ball or at least complete a lot of screens for 4,5,6 yards i really think they can slow down the colts d, keep PM off the field and win this game.

It may well be if you like boxing but how can it begin to compare with watching it with your own eyes on a screen

Power of the imagination innit. See also, cricket and baseball.

Never mind, it is not a physical drama anyway.

cricket lol

will probably watch both tbh

BBC will be using the CBS comms, not the international one.

I like the CBS comms, but still ill support sky because they show alot of games

Colin Murray and Bobby George doing the bbc coverage

"He beat that quarter back up bad"

sky are using cbs as well i think

they wont be trying to do it themselves like they did the other year and ruined the whole event!!

Yea that was just shocking

Also with sky it annoys me when they dont go onto the pitches when the players come on and stuff. I like the Ray Lewis dance :)

Not this topic again.

Could be worse, usually about now we get NFL is a poofs game unlike Rugby threads

and charge you £40 a month for the the privilage of watching them

Well I dont have sky so its not 40

sky, flicking to bbc when the ads come on.

bit unfair to say bbc do nothing for the game, the 5live coverage this season has been good imo. hope they get the money to do it again next year.

Sky, out of loyalty. And I don't need to have the rules explained throughout.

i dunno, i always learn some new rules every year. not entirely sure theyre the correct rules lol but still try their best bless em. cant be any worse than itv, they really made a pigs ear out of it.

BBC getting the nod from me from the bits I have seen on Sky.

I quite like Smith, pleased he is the QB for my team, seems a solid and sensible guy.

all those that say sky "out of loyalty" are mad

BBC W@NKERS CAN'T EVEN BE BOTHERED TO BROADCAST IN HD, Ooops sorry caps lock.

BBC absolutely hammered them in every department!

Alex Smith and Rhod was a big coup for the BBC

Sky had some London Monarchs tight end!!

If you watched one channel and enjoyed the game you wouldn't have a clue about the other tbh so never conclusive and down to personal taste , no point in me bashing bbc coverage because I was watching on sky and too interested in the game to give a damn in all honesty.
