I was watching DirecTV's red zone channel.

There are two versions now, DirecTV's which is the original, and now NFL Network's.

I had direct tv and the ticket about two years ago and I watched the red zone channel over there and let me say that this nfl network one is VERY different. Its MUCH MORE faster paced then the Direct tv one. The commentator for direct tv sounds alot like the white house press secretary. Whereas, the nfl network guy sounds like he is addicted to red bulls and caffeine. Its much more exciting and it keeps you focused, keeps you pumped, and keeps you excited. Plus, he'll fill you in on games that he just flipped you too. The direct tv one won't do that.

Well put! It is a pretty awesome channel. Given the choice of having all 16 games on or Red Zone channel (Comcast Version), I am taking the Red Zone. You don't miss anything!

That's a good thing?

DTV, they'll flip to a game and brief you on what's going on. Not sure what you mean exactly.

Re: NFL Network Red Zone

$50 on Direct?


It's only $5.99/month on Dish Network.

NFLN comes with Dish at no extra charge and you do NOT need to have an expensive Ticket.

Re: NFL Network Red Zone

I like my expensive ticket, otherwise I wouldn't get to see all 16 games.

Re: NFL Network Red Zone

I'm not saying that one is better than the other, just that they basically offer the same thing, which Miller was trying to say they don't.

Re: NFL Network Red Zone

It's the same shit, one is DirectTV and the other NFL Network. The question is what do they do when no one is in the Redzone?

Re: NFL Network Red Zone

Despite the name they don't just take you to games where a team is actually in the red zone.

Re: NFL Network Red Zone

Who here is watching Red Zone on Comcast? I have comcast and I can only get it in low-def on channel 734 or some shit. Where is the high def channel I looked all over for it.

Re: NFL Network Red Zone

Here in Frederick, it's 26-something, along with a 2nd NFLN HD channel. Naturally the powers that be at Comcast have not updated their channel listing yet on their website and all the other TV Listings sites have Frederick's old channel listing.

EDIT: Thanks to Zap2It who is up to speed on the channel listings, NFL RedZone HD is on 263.
