Watched it for 6 hours straight on Sunday without changing the channel once and without having to watch one single commercial. They were offering free last week as a promotion (ATT Uverse).
The wife (no pics) text me today and said she was able to add it for $5 a month.

Didn't know it was possible, but now my Sundays just got even better.

Yes, yes it is awesome. It was a free promotion by the NFL...so it was on pretty much all carriers. Watched it all day on Sunday on Cox. Will definitely order it.

It's awesome, but I only watch it when the Saints are playing on a Monday or Thursday.

i thought it was ok but i would never pay for it.

i like to actually watch a football game and see how the team got to the red zone. shite was switching between games so fast it was making me dizzy.

I like it, had it this weekend and watched it even though I had the NFL package. Wife started griping though saying she just wanted to watch the Texans even though they were up 34-0

I've had it for 2 years now. I don't even do fantasy but I am captivated. I did the same thing on Sunday. It was one of the greatest days of my life.

I wish I could get it by itself on Direct TV, but I don't think it is offered.

I go to the pub sundays from 9:30 to 4ish and have all the games in front of me so it works out.

I'm both actually so its perfect for me. I love to sit down and watch a hard hitting NFL game, but the benefits of no commercials and non stop action is almost too much to take. It's a man's dream. The commentator does a great job of bringing you from game to game and they even replay what you missed.

Only problem I have is Saints games bcs I wont be watching it then. Will DVR it though. If saints are at noon I can still watch it for the 3pm games.

This is my only gripe with the channel. I dislike the constant switching back and forth, but I hate that double box even more. They even have a quadruple box

But I still bought it of course. Redzone is money when there are shite games on TV.

Do you understand the concept behind the channel???

But you are on par with my fiancee because she was like, what game are you watching it keeps switching teams.

Exactly. No longer do I have to sit through fricking Cleveland taking on the mighty Bengals in an Ohio rivalry show down. F that noise.

(although if I did not have RZ, I'd be wathcing it bcs the NFL is like a drug to me)

To get my 4 y/o into Football I've started telling him who was playing who by telling him the Mascots. Kids love Bears, Dolphins, Lions...etc. All animals they can associate with.

Anyway, while watching this channel, my son decided to play in his room bcs he was confused as hell.

Yes, I've had it since last year

It's not the switching of the games, that's expected. It's the switching back and forth within seconds, and this was really bad this past weekend when several teams were in the redzone at once. They literally went to one game for 3 seconds, switched back for 3 seconds, and switched to another for 3 seconds.
