I was hoping they weren't going to officially replace the current slanted designs they had. This design looks like they are going back to the 2015 look but more modified with darker colors. This feels like more of a step back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially compared to what they're getting rid of it. It's underwhelming and a little disappointing honestly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briella 231 Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 They're following the Fox method of making the bug small enough to fit in a vertical tik tok/social media video. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, so that's the whole point of this new design concept. I should have known that everything's about people's stupid vertical videos now...

Only works though if the action is centered in the camera frame as well which isn't always the case. I've seen plenty of TV sports highlights repurposed to vertical social videos using the pan and scan method. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoffrey 706 Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 I don't think it's obvious in the screenshots but did anyone else notice the low quality of NBC's graphics just now? Seemed rather pixelated and some of them seemed to be "jumping." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgie56 2959 Posted February 13, 2022 Author Share Posted February 13, 2022 Yeah, I noticed that as well. Hopefully they iron out those kinks before the pregame show begins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgie56 2959 Posted February 13, 2022 Author Share Posted February 13, 2022 A couple more pics. This reminds me somewhat of the NBC TNF package so far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronQ 254 Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 (edited) It's noteworthy that it applies to Telemundo as well. Edited February 13, 2022 by AaronQ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WCAUTVNBC10 407 Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 It's a good evolution to the 2018 package. I hope this does work its way to the other properties and the RSNs this time around. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah. I do think this will make it's way to at least NASCAR, Notre Dame, their college properties and maybe the RSNs. Big question is whether they apply this to their EPL coverage or do they continue with SkySports package or even develop a new package for Sky and use that.

Briella 231 Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Wow I love these graphics. Seeing them in action… they’re easily the best graphics out right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgie56 2959 Posted February 13, 2022 Author Share Posted February 13, 2022 The play clock pops out at the bottom of the circle, and the down and distance is on the bottom of the side of the team who has possession. It's a throwback to the NFL scorebugs of the mid-2000s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noggi 543 Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 These look great! A very nice evolution with a lot of slick animations. I don’t mind flat design at all, but I admire the effort put into this look. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidwestTV 1136 Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 (edited) I like the use of a circle in the score bug. Outside of CBS, circular elements seem like they lost favor. Nor do I mind the score bug's size and position (though maybe I'd prefer it a little smaller). Play clock could maybe be a little bigger or at least bold. Big fan of the new peacock wipe. Touchdown graphic is certainly much less obnoxious than FOX or CBS. Oh, the animation for a flag in the bug is flashy. I like that. Again to the bug. There's a subtle detail in the down-and-distance showing the direction the team is going. Edited February 14, 2022 by MidwestTV 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lugnuts6 88 Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 And of course, the super bowl on nbc is airing on its spanish language sister network Telemundo, and the new graphics fit them to a [ heh ! ] T! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new NFL graphics on NBC are terrific, especially the new score bug (I do like the newer smaller style of the score bug, which doesn't take up a whole lot of the bottom of the screen). Fox and ESPN do use a small style of the score bug, and it's great to see NBC utilize one themselves! The only quirk I have with the new bug is that the "peacock" logo in the middle of the bug is in a gray color, and the only time the color changes is when a penalty flag is thrown (obviously making the color yellow). I'd rather the usual colors on the small "peacock" in the middle of the score bug; of course, this would complement the usual colorful NBC "peacock" bug in the corner of the screen. NFL games ARE brought to us in living color (and in HD) on NBC, you know!! Edited February 14, 2022 by J1975am Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
