Concept wise, this is the way of the future. Broadcast is not able to compete with cable companies. ESPN was able to put in more than 100 hours of live tv about this game including 20 straight today.
Look at that, rusher comes in , Cam doesn't get scared, STEPS UP IN THE POCKET, and hits the open guy.

Hold onto the ball, Murray!
Watching this game, it looks like Newton would be 2-3 years away from being able to start. His mechanics flat-out stink.

veetle too, although it's not as awesome as it once was.
He didn't bolt when the pass rush came in, he stepped up and tossed it to the open guy that wasn't his first read. People have said he couldn't or doesn't do these things.

I am unimpressed as well. The defenses had a month to prepare. Let's see what the adjustments bring at halftime.
That 4th down throw was craptastic. Too scatterbrained and he short-armed it.
And the future sucks.
I just spent four days working ESPN events, they put money in my pocket.
Pre-game and game are two different things.
Get ready for no free NFL Playoff games.
Get ready for no free Superbowl.
Get ready for no free World Series.
Get ready for no free NBA Finals.
You good with that?
I'm not!
Word! 100%
Oregon is perhaps the best second half team in the country.

I am still accepting wagers.
I work for ESPN so it keeps them happy and me paid.
I just got paid from them too, well net thirty.
It still doesn't make corporate greed right.

It really wasn't that special of a play. An average QB should make a handful of plays like that every game.
He barreled over a LB for a first down, that was his most impressive play. But, too much of that in the NFL means a short career.

What ESPN is doing is not corporate greed, they outbid FOX (who by the way was terrible at their presentation of college football and there is no denying that) in a fair negotiation. There is a reason cable networks as a whole have had viewership rise while the networks are failing. Channels that are able to specialize are normally able to give you a much better product.

He looks like a clumsy stork in the pocket.
That is a championship-heisman winning stork to you.

No one is going to tune in, or tune out, of a football game because of the "presentation".
