Nfl Redzone

17 posts in this topic

Has anyone checked out NFL Redzone yet? This station is awesome. It swings you around to every game as teams get in scoring position or if a popular game is going on. I am getting to see games that I would never see!. BTW, the Bengals are playing the Packers really well. Their offense is starting to click on all cylinders and their defense is playing physical.

Been watching it for years. It it truly addictive. Actually, I park on GameMix and then flash to RedZone when a game I'm interested in gets there.

I thought it was a new station from NFL Network? Anyway, my local station was showing the Skin's game, which I had no interest in. So I'm watching NFL Redzone until we play. Right now Cincy is looking to pull off an upset against Greenbay, the Jets are trying to close out the Pats and the Chiefs are trying to beat the Raiders at home with a minute and a half left, Raiders have the ball.

FiOS is offering it for a one-time fee of $49.99.... I am debating whether or not to do it

Yeah I saw that for $49.99 but if you are watching the Raven's game when would you watch that?

It's been part of NFL Sunday Ticket/SuperFan for at least 3 years.

I remember you pimping up the Superfan last year. And I caved in today. Paid the extra 100 bucks. And you were right. I'm in love.

The Redzone channel on Directv is awesome. The game mix with eight games at once. Perfect. All games in HD incredible. And you can watch all games streaming on line as well.

I used all of these features today. I'm hook, line and sinker on this package.

Thanks for talking me into shelling out the extra bucks. Looks like I can never go back.

We just dropped Direct TV and got FIOS--I miss my Sunday Ticket

How could you drop Sunday Ticket? I just got it, and now I can never ever be away from it again. Can't stand Directv - but they do have the football market cornered.

If I'm away from Maryland. I can watch the Ravens game streaming online via directv now (Superfan).

They pissed off my husband and he got FIOS. We have been having DVR issues and the box not responding and they have been sending us a new one since the beginning of August--never got it-- and the hung up on him 4 times and told him if he was so damn impatient he could go to Best Buy and buy a new one for 400 bucks--even though we had the replacement insurance. So I am so sad--I LOATHE FIOS. You need to memorize one set of channels for the HD sets and another for the older TV's :( its awful.

I just caved in and bought a HD Dvr as well. I was reading horror stories about some of the Directv DVRs. Specifically the HR 22.

I hate Directv's customer service, they've pissed me off like no other. But I'm addicted to having a nice setup, which includes the football setup.

Sorry for going off-topic - well this topic should really be in off-topic.

I'll move it later. That is the box we have, we had to take off the doors of the entertainment center because itruns so hot, bought it a laptop cooling fan, have it over the AC duct, and it still fried :( Oh well. Someone told me game shorts are somewhere on demand on FIOS, darned if I can find them.

Whoa whoa WHOA...DON'T YOU HATE ON FiOS! lol.

I admit, navigation is a little tricky (especially since their channel line-ups are so significantly different from the other cable providers), but you'll get used to it. And NFL Network Game Shorts are in Free --> Sports --> NFLN On-Demand --> Local Zone (if I remember that correctly)

Found them tonite, along with the Ravens [i]Hard Knocks[/i]! AND did not lose the signal during a loud thunderstorm tonite. Still not a huge FIOS fan.

I am also a fellow FiOS subscriber and would never go back to Comcast or a dish. They simply don't come close.
