The NFL 'RedZone' is coming soon to a TV near you.
As announced on Monday, both Comcast Cable systems and Dish Network will carry the RedZone channel — a station that airs the most exciting plays in football, live.
When teams get inside the 20-yard line, RedZone, hosted by Scott Hanson from the NFL Network's studios in Los Angeles, will air that game live for fans to see the action as it happens.
"Inside the 20, fans are focused, leaning forward on the edge of their seats. With NFL RedZone, our customers get that intense live action experience for all the NFL games on every Sunday afternoon," said Derek Harrar, General Manager and Senior Vice President of Video Services for Comcast. "The addition of NFL RedZone represents yet another major enhancement to our overall sports offering for Comcast customers."
So while Tom Brady is working his way down field, fans have the opportunity to click over to the RedZone to see live action of Brandon Jacobs plowing his way onto paydirt for a quick six points.
“NFL RedZone is the most exciting thing to happen to football since high definition,” said Ira Bahr, Chief Marketing Officer for Dish Network. “There’s no better way to kick off the 2009 NFL football season than by changing the way America watches football, and DISH Network is pleased to offer consumers an opportunity to catch every touchdown and the biggest plays as they happen.”
