NFL.com is absolutely terrible. It either fails to load, doesn't appear to be updated or loads up a previous week's news items. Even the bbc which has extremely limited exposure to the sport has updated the Division tables and %s. I don't know if its just the browser I am using but I find the experience continually dreadful.

I don't use it either - sportsline.com is the way forward

Never has any problems at all with NFL.com bar some of the articles which are rubbish.....there is a lack of insight in the writing for me.
Report d13phe September 24, 2012 2:39 PM BST
i usually read sports illustrated and bleacher report.

NFLs articles are rubbish as Grayhawk correctly says

I've always used   http://www.cbssports.com/  as it contains the only sports i'm interested in & never thought to change in all honesty.

Always use the cbssports on sundays for the scoreboards...much better....nfl.com good for watching the shows we dont see over here

Any soccer/football whatever official site good?
Site is ok, a few guys are good on twitter, a few shows are ok and Rich Eisen podcast is good. Articles truly are awful indeed, bleacher however not much better...
ProFootballfocus, footballoutsiders, sport illustrated, vegasinsider, cbs are great.

VIDEOS ARE USELESS ON THAT SITE NEVER LOADS UP PROPERLY
Report db1974 September 24, 2012 10:02 PM BST
Yeah I'm fed up with it at this stage

Really gone downhill since they started messing with the video highlights section, using the Gameday voiceovers on the video instead of the original commentary. Drives me mad watching a highlight reel with someone telling me what's about to happen.

Nothing gonna change though. If there's one thing we've learned about the NFL hierarchy over the last 18 mths, it's that they don't give a **** about anyone else but themselves
Report GoBallistic September 25, 2012 12:30 AM BST
It's barely usable - like being back on dial-up. I usually use the ESPN site - the CBS site looks like another alternative

I absolutely love playing Fantasy Football on nfl.com...our leagues in its 3rd season now. Dont use it for much else.

The Ryder Cup website is a bit daft, you have to click whether you're USA or Europe

NFL site is the worst.  I go to NHL, Golf, MLB and can sail around, see hilites, find what I want.

NFL is absolutely a joke.  I have stopped going to it. 

Last week, I kept getting a 30 second ad between every 15 second hilite.

Trying to find stats, etc, was soul draining.

Have gone elsewhere.
Report DirkDiggler September 29, 2012 2:02 PM BST
It's awful.

Can't tun off the constant fantasy updates, too many ads, the stats section is abysmal. And too many ads, it's not a site that you can have open in a tab without it constantly making noise and annoying you. Does my swede in.

All the NFL cares about is money. They have a good product but they're spoiling it now.

i dont really use it. its a nightmare trying to look at schedules etc. everything takes forever. and keeps getting stopped to play videos and adverts i dont want to see.

i use it for my fantasy league and to watch the shows abit laggy as a scoreboard i think and it keeps onn putting on trailers and ads all the time :S
Report SHAPESHIFTER October 9, 2012 9:31 AM BST
It amazes me that someone could actually commission something like this.  Right now, I rank it as the worst sports related site on planet earth. 

Clunky, flash drop downs every time you move your mouse.  Finding the simplest stat takes navigation on top of navigation. 

The ads everywhere, every time you click on something.  No, I don't want a Ford...ever.   

There is so much nonsense on the pages. 

the other day I had a 'feedback' box come up.  I sent to fill it in, click and it said "Thank you for your time". 

It hasn't come back since

Clearly never been on the darts http://www.pdc.tv/page/Home. Is a right nightmare to navigate trough, seems to have been designed on a ZX Spectrum.

My screen is up as a sports ticker...and without actually touching it for 20 minutes, it just changed into a giant mars bars ad.

WTA official site is complete pish

I like the Drive Tracker and in game stats on NFL.com
Report SHAPESHIFTER October 15, 2012 10:46 AM BST
Drive Tracker is great once you are on that page.

But it is like walking through a mind field as flash, ads and distractions pop up with every move of the mouse.

It is SO advertising driven.....
