The NFL is the richest sporting league. Even after falling short on appeal on the global stage, the league racks in billions in revenue. One of the major contributors to this factor is the broadcasting rights sold for the games. Following a substantial interest from America and some from the rest of the world, big television channels enter the race to bag these rights for themselves. But this process is now not as simple as it once was. While the technology surrounding broadcasting grows, so does the expected quality of presentation. Big tech firms are entering the fray to fight for their places in the industry. It only spells out challenges to the current casters to step up their game, and this season it looks like they are up for the challenge.

The Green Bay Packers took on the New York Giants on the 9th of October. Apart from the evident decline of Aaron Rodgers, the fans were in awe of something else. During the 4th quarter, a shot which focused on the Giant’s huddle panned out, giving an over-the-top view of all the players present on the pitch. With the high-definition camera and the steady motion work, the fans were in disbelief over the craftsmanship. Some even confused it for a video game instead of a live match. Hence exciting the viewers for the future prospects of broadcasting.

Fans react to the new NFL perspective

This fan was so confused with the transition, he could not even understand what tool was used.

Whereas this viewer was convinced that this was not NFL, instead it was a scene from the Madden games.

If it was up to this person, then the broadcaster would have already won an award.

And for this fan, the future looks really diverse, at least when it comes to the available camera angles.

For this person, he wants this to be the default view of the game.

On the other hand, there were also quite a few who had different feelings while watching this.

And this person does acknowledge the problem.

Don’t let the fancy camera take all your attention. There have been remarkable changes in the NFL’s strategy to boost its viewing experience. Especially its partnership with Amazon. The tech giant has bagged the rights to Thursday Night Football, which is a game-changer for the NFL. In addition to the exclusive online streaming of the games.
