SDHIll1980 34 Posted July 26 Share Posted July 26 Fox issued a press release back in May highlighting their NFL coverage for this upcoming season (including Super Bowl LIX), and as many know that Tom Brady will make his NFL analyst debut with Kevin Burkhardt on September 8th (week 1), when the Cowboys face off versus the Browns in Cleveland. However, those in Tampa Bay, Washington DC, and their teams' respective secondary markets will see Commanders at Buccaneers instead. Greg Olsen, who served as Burkhardt's partner the previous two seasons will join Joe Davis as their #2 team, and there will be also some shuffling amongst the other broadcast teams. The only non-change will be the team of Kenny Albert and Jonathan Vilma. As per the USA Today, here's Fox's lineup of main broadcast teams (excluding the sideline reporters, although it's confirmed that Erin Andrews and Tom Rinaldi will work with Burkhardt & Brady) Kevin Burkhardt & Tom Brady Joe Davis & Greg Olsen Adam Amin & Mark Sanchez Kenny Albert & Jonathan Vilma Kevin Kugler & Darryl Johnston Chris Myers and Mark Schlereth 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYCsporty 34 Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 (edited) Since I haven't seen anyone start it up yet, I will, here's the 2024 LocalNewsTalk preseason NFL graphics roundup starting with Carolina & New England (no changes it appears) & Detroit & N.Y. Giants both using the current 2023 FOX graphics set, the Lions going from Bally Sports Detroit while the Giants have switched broadcast rights from WNBC to WNYW. Have a feeling we'll see this change implemented on the Atlanta Falcons & Minnesota Vikings broadcasts with both being on FOX O&O's (WAGA & KMSP) & using their NFL grahpics in the past.

NYCsporty 34 Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Houston Texans making a slight tweak with the color of the scorebar from last season, Pittsburgh Steelers no change, Atlanta Falcons follows suit with the Lions & Giants with the current NFL on FOX bug, while the Miami Dolphins, Philadelphia Eagles, & Baltimore Ravens remain unchanged from last season.

mrschimpf 2166 Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 A little bit far off, but it's been confirmed it'll be CBS Sports producing the Christmas games for Netflix. Likely we'll get both games locally in-market on the CBS-owned stations (including WJZ and KDKA). CBS talent is yet to be confirmed to be used. And no changes to the Packers package this year; still in house with the same look and CBS production. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehatt493 31 Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Bengals package is fundamentally the same, but the production values have noticeably come up, probably not a coincidence in their first year on new local flagship WXIX. The graphics have some motion to them now with dissolves and wipes. Font is clearly their in-house typeface with something similar to the FOX 2017-20 package.

NYCsporty 34 Posted August 11 Share Posted August 11 No changes preseason graphics-wise for the Bills, Bears, Bucs, Chiefs, Chargers, 49ers, Jaguars, Seahawks, & Titans. Raiders using MLBN/NHLN type graphics, while the Vikings & Saints use the current FOX scorebar, & the Cardinals, having moved from KPNX (NBC) to KPHO (CBS) went with a new custom scorebar.

racefan_09 9 Posted August 11 Share Posted August 11 Those are the old Raycom Sports graphics from the 2010s ACC syndication days for the Raiders! Believe they used them last year too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgie56 3168 Posted August 11 Author Share Posted August 11 (edited) The Cowboys are still using that Amazon TNF ripoff. Meanwhile, the Rams continue to use the Altitude look. Edited August 11 by Georgie56 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viper550 269 Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 (edited) The Cardinals one is one NFL Network did use briefly in 2021-22 (mainly for the Senior Bowl on NFLN and Super Bowl world feed, which were still using the old, pre-2014 Thursday Night Football graphics; this got replaced by the Exclusive Game Series graphics) Edited August 12 by Viper550 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.W. Rodriguez 4 Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 (edited) To the surprise of no one, WCBS kept the same NFL on CBS graphics for 2024, which I would have to think will be the final year they'll be using them. Usually when CBS debut new graphics every few years when they have the Super Bowl, WCBS usually keeps the same graphics for the preseason then switches to the new ones the next season. I imagine it'll be the same scenario for WNYW come next preseason, even if Fox debuts new graphics for SB LIX, which I doubt will happen since their NFL graphics will only be 2 years old come September. Speaking of the Giants switching from WNBC to WNYW, why haven't they posted anything on the internet regarding an announcement? I looked it up and couldn't find anything. Was this announced in private or something? Edited August 12 by J.W. Rodriguez 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B2r4a6n 102 Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 I thought Giants preseason is only on WNYW this year because of the Olympics. They've done this in the past when WNBC is airing the olympics. WNBC aired "All Access: Giants Training Camp" last Saturday at 7pm. This program is part of the deal WNBC has with the Giants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I don't see CBS Sports changing to the graphics we saw in Super Bowl 58 for this upcoming regular season. The virtual down and distance marker? With a font change to TT Norms, maybe. But the graphics as a whole? Not at all (since many of the insert graphics are just reskins of what they've used since 2021, themselves reskins of the 2016 graphics infrastructure), and especially not the scorebug.

DJonNews 95 Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 (edited) By the way... Washington Commanders, Indianapolis Colts, Cleveland Browns: No change. Miami Dolphins: Am I the only one that thinks that Arial clashes horribly with the preseason graphics they've been using since 2018, which has Klavika elsewhere? (Never mind that they're an era behind when it comes to graphics and they're still promoting the preseason telecasts as broadcasting in HD in 2024?)

nomadcowatbk 144 Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 which markets get the most regional games? which markets get nothing beyond the national games? Is really that much demand for the preseason in AL and HI? Do stations just pick up whatever teams are available to them and want to pay for? What are the geographic restrictions if any? How much of a following do the Broncos or Packers have in South Dakota? Could station in Lubbock pick up the Chiefs where KKCL is part of the Chiefs Radio Network? Chiefs will be on KSHB on Saturday but the final preseason game will be on KMCI again due to KSHB carrying NBC's coverage of Kamala's coronation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting, unlike Arizona & Washington, which also left NBC affiliates for this preseason, albeit to CBS in their home markets, there was no PR about it, maybe it's a one year thing, although IMO, parterning with FOX & being the home of most Giants games would be ideal, not to mention having a sister station in WWOR to have Giants content air as well.

Georgie56 3168 Posted August 25 Author Share Posted August 25 You’d think CBS would make a few tweaks to the scorebug that debuted at Super Bowl LVIII, but nope… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24994J 5391 Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 Damn, the city abbreviation font is rough. I'm pretty confident it's not, but that thin weight reminds me too much or an Arial/Helvetica type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJonNews 95 Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 (edited) You know, I thought CBS would keep the 2021 scorebug, since I noticed that a wide majority of the insert graphics in Super Bowl LVIII were of the 2021 style but with color changes (not unlike the graphics Fox would end reverting to partway through Super Bowl LI, since they presumably also weren't proud of how the "flat" graphics turned out; of course, there would be a different flat graphics set come the 2017 preseason). Heck, the preseason game I'm watching is using a wide majority of the 2021 insert graphics right now! But I thought wrong.

The “bones” look largely the same as what they’ve had but new desk and screen elements will help modernize the look for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
