Flip_Side Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 I hate the new setup that NFL.com has. It used to be simple, now it might look nicer but its so hard to navigate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magagnon Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Is there a web site which provides a quick, easy to read box score? That would be cbs sportsline. They were the ones providing the stats before the nfl.com's redesign Its looks pretty much like the 2006 design and its much better... http://www.sportsline.com/nfl/gamecenter/l...20070906_NO@IND Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do these websites have to get fancy? I absolutely hate NFL.com this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeeR Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 NFL.com has always sucked but at least last year you could quickly and easily get to the stats. Amazing how they made a bad thing worse eh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skippy Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 so----------is it possible for Huddle.com to provide decent real-time stats to its subscribers? That is a crazy fee that you have to pay to be able to provide real-time stats. Your best option is the MFL game day option if you have MFL. Some people complained of problems last weekend but I didn't see any problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillyBalata Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 The last couple years, I've always used NFL.com on Sundays. Would open up 8-9 tabs, one for each NFL game. But now with this new format they have, I had troubles once I tried to open up more then 5 tabs. Things started to go real slow. Once I added a 7th tab everything just stopped. Wasn't just me, there were several of us on line Sunday that had the same problems. Finally switched over to Sportsline (once I could get in) and was able to open up 9 tabs and had no problems the rest of the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rajncajn Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 If you look at the top of the front page on NFL.com it shows a row of green game boxes. Those are links to the NFL Gamecenter which has everything they had last year. The only problem was this past week they were very slow to load the stats, but they weren't the only one's that had that problem and it may be due to their stat provider, Elias Sports Bureau, which would also explain why MFL was behind as well.

Swiss Cheezhead Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 I'll be paying attention to this in Week 2. I've been using Sportsline for the last couple of weeks now, but I'm not sure if it's just me being resistant to change or if I actually prefer the old format. As rajn was talking about, I like having ALL the game box-score links across the top of the page. That way, I can go straight from one box score (or "gamecenter") directly to another one without clicking the back button. And if NFL.com's scoreboard requires more memory for some reason -- and slows stuff down -- then I might just continue with Sportsline. There doesn't seem to be any additional bells & whistles to compensate for any sort of slowing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cre8tiff Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 I prefer sportsline, as they have the audio that plays on game events. I can minimize the games and work, only checking when that dude yells, "INTERCEPTION, They're going the other WAAAAYYYY." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rajncajn Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 I'll be the voice of dissent. I like it. A lot actually. Yeah, I kinda do too. Some of the formatting leaves a little to be desired, but I'm loving some of the new features...especially the game highlights video link right there in the box score.

jjpro11 Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 the one thing i do like are the video highlights on the page. although its not up til after the game, it is still nice to go watch every game's highlights like that. you get way more out of watching that than you would watching espn's highlights.

kingfish247 Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Could go either way on the new look and format but my main complaint is not being able to Google a player's NFL.com player page anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingfish247 Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 One thing that I like (it's buried but it's pretty nice) is the addition of stats from all years and stats relating to record breakers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
