Rodgers is fine now... Of course.

Incomplete pass we should see AR shaking his right hand

 

[Rex Racer]

Yep! I think so. Is there really a difference? Plain ol’ HD looks great. What does 4k add or is it a marketing gimmick?

If you have Comcast or xfinity or some other shitty cable service you need to be aware that their programming transmission is barely HD and is definitely not 4K.

Referee got to help GB now

You guys are mean.

 

[Dude]

It is pretty vibrant and crisp if you have a true 4K signal feeding your TV. If not, you just have an HD TV which is still pretty nice.

Yep. Noticed it now that I focused on looking for it. Slightly better image.

I’ve been switching back and forth between the two transmissions, and guess you may be right. 4k is a bit sharper image. Hard to detect, but yes, it’s noticeable if you focus on looking at it. I’ll be damned!

Also, it's not a true 4K signal being put out by Fox. It's just 1080p. So, in essence, these games for Thursday by Fox are just getting upgraded from 720p to 1080p (which is almost impossible for the human eye to differentiate).

Either way, your TV's processor is the one responsible for doing all the heavy lifting here, as it needs to upscale the 1080p to 4K. And depending on what TV you own, some do upscale processing a lot better than others (Sony is the best for example). What brand and model do you own?

It’s an exciting step forward for live sports in the US, but the press release came with a caveat: the game will still be produced in 1080p HDR and get upscaled to 4K for delivery. That’s because the broadcast equipment needed to produce an entire NFL game, especially the slow-motion systems, are still in 1080p, according to Mike Davies, SVP of field operations for Fox Sports.

Nice catch. Receiver took a hell of a pounding.

No. I have loads of 4k content feeds. Never really thought about it until today.

 

[Iggloo]

Wow, nice drive. The catch before the TD was excellent.

 

[Schmoopy1000]

Rodgers is one of the most dangerous 2 min Qbs in the league

(no one tell GNG I said that)

AR throwing a wounded duck trying to kill his receiver

 

[Pure Steel]

My aim is true.....

 

[Dude]

Amazing 1-minute drive. Great game here, folks.

 

[dbldwn711]

Pretty exciting game for Thursday night.

 

[Rex Racer]

The Mediocrity Bowl will take a brief break while these half talented losers regroup in the locker room.

Pretty exciting game for Thursday night.

Yeah, if you enjoy watching shitty teams duke it out.
