Well, I thought Fox would hang on to the NFL graphics package they debuted at Super Bowl LVII, but nope. We're getting a new NFL graphics package after all.

 

 

Not a fan of this scorebug...

  • Georgie56 changed the title to New Fox NFL Graphics 2025

Kinda looks like an ultra minimalistic take on the ESPN CBB/SEC on ABC graphics with how it handles the "slide-outs". The team names being in a typeface that appears to actually be derived from the Fox logo is a neat touch, though this looks like something you'd see on a preseason game rather than the Super Bowl. Somehow this makes the college football graphics look good.

So far the studio graphics on the pre-game are brand new and do not appear to match up with these. In fact so far they may actually be an improvement, and may actually lend some credence to the theory this may be a decoy, some other test version that is not going to be used (though if they did that layout but with the trim/design of these graphics we're seeing...), or someone going a lot harder in trying to make fake leaks than usual.

 

Now, of course, we've seen Fox basically "chicken out" on debuting graphics before (LI), but the last two games they have been consistent.

The new Fox logo font from the scorebug has made a few appearances so far during the pregame show.

It seems like the logotype font is a custom version of Franklin Gothic (funny, ‘cause I always noticed similarities between the Fox wordmark and FG, and even tried replicating the wordmark using that font when I was a teenager).

 

The bowls and kerning of some of the lettering help give it a hybrid style of FG and the Fox logo, but they look a little off from the derived logo (noticeable towards kickoff, during the promotion of the Fox Deportes simulcast, when the logotype was used instead of the actual logo).

Not a fan of it. It's both large and also a bit hard to read the scores at times. Saw social media comments saying it looks unfinished and felt like an old PowerPoint presentation -- my thoughts exactly.

 

For years, we were trending toward smaller graphics, perhaps adding more information but still everything getting smaller. Which is everything getting bigger these days?

Graphics are fine with me.

 

Can't believe Terry Bradshaw is retiring.  I thought he might have worked at least a couple more seasons,  but with recent events that came up, i guessed he was forced to retire. 

Bradshaw has two years left on his contract with Fox. He indicated in a recent interview with Radio Row that he’d likely retire after the network’s telecast of Super Bowl LXIII in 2029, meaning he’d likely seek a two-year contract extension to close out his broadcast career.

I apologize.   I saw fhat there was a tribute for Bradshaw.  I only saw part of the segment.  It may have been for the event held earlier last week for him.

He was born and raised in Louisiana. February 5th was declared Bradshaw Day, but not for any farewell reasons. Jimmy Johnson, however, got a tribute segment during pregame, but that was more because he's not likely still going to be on the show when they have the big game again in 2029. His last massive viewership appearance.
