I guess I've never noticed that or thought thst it went by home teams. I guess we are playing a lot more afc opponents then usual here lately 

We play the exact same number of AFC opponents we play every year: four. The NFL schedule has a predetermined format to it, part of which is each team plays one division from the other conference each year on a rotating basis. Two of those games are home games, two are away. That pretty much never changes.

CBS broadcasts in 1080p vs. Fox in 720p if memory serves

Is this a recent change? Swear CBS had the worst quality for years, and it has been notorious for that especially in the mid 2000s.  Their games used to look awful. Out bid on the scheduling saw them cut back on quality.

According to wikipedia, which may or may not be accurate, here are the max resolution levels for national broadcasts

  • ABC: 720p
  • CBS: 1080i
  • ESPN: 720p
  • FOX: 720p
  • NBC: 1080i
  • NFL Network : 1080i

The problem is that the cable company may not support higher resolutions on the channels that they feed down the line. Which is why Netflix and other streamers, along with DirecTV, are able to offer 4K channels.

But until the sports stuff is *filmed* in the higher resolutions, don't expect to see Ultra 4k HD for weekly NFL broadcasts any time soon.

Per Reddit - FOX does some HDR via the Fox Sports App or the FuboTV streamer. Fox and NBC 4K feeds are upscaled of their 1080 stuff

They'll probably air the super bowl this year in 4K, as an experiment. If Amazon (or Apple or whatever streamer) ends up with Sunday Ticket, I'd expect games to be available in 4K via that method before they're available on 4K via broadcast

This blows my mind

That's the general jist of it but the NFL has been allowing cross flexing for a few years now where a network can reach across and grab a game from the other conference.  They did that after they ran into some issues with all of the best games being AFC or NFC games.  Now there is a little bit of flexibility to wheel and deal as needed.  The same for Thanksgiving.

      Gameday Thread: KC-CAR

      By mav1234 · Posted

      KC has a very good defense this year. It is 5th overall. Yes, still worse than last year, but their offense is considerably worse. Their passing D may be their "weakness" but they still allow fewer than 20 ppg. BY completed several deep passes yesterday, and he was able to threaten downfield in ways he didn't seem capable of before the benching. I'm not necessarily worried about his ability to connect deep anymore. What to me was impressive was that he did all this without a run game. We used the pass to set up what little running success we had. Wild.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Solid and fair assessment.   I will say, one of the big things I noticed yesterday was that he wasn't shy to step up into the pocket in the face of pressure.  He's trusting the IOL.  And they took care of Chris Jones yesterday.  We had clean pockets but also good success rate vs. pressure which just hasn't been the case with Bryce.   If he has more confidence the OL gets it done and he can navigate and step up for throws, that's huge.  It's one of the biggest things that's held him back.  He was previously bailing quickly and just too easily throwing away or making dead plays.     He was finding his 2nd to 3rd reads within structure/without bailing in the pocket.  That was nice to see, as much concern I have with him.  And the overall limitations will always be there. Time to back it up this week against the Bucs.

      Some Thoughts on Our Remaining Games

      By 45catfan · Posted

      Suddenly the Cowgirls look like our best chance for a win remaining. I think the Bucs are playing better than the Falcons of late.  Our lone game versus the dirty birds is in the ATL where we always struggle.  The Cardinals are marginally better than I thought they would be. We are not beating the Eagles, they are starting to roll. I'm saying two at most, next week at home versus the Bucs and the Cowgirls.
