The Pittsburgh Steelers and Tennessee Titans were featured on NBC’s “Sunday Night Football” and the network decided to try an experiment with the Skycam.

Instead of the normal camera angles we’re used to seeing, Skycam was an elevated view from the line of scrimmage.

NFL fans watching at home were decidedly NOT enthused about it all.

This skycam view is horrible @SNFonNBC . It’s making me nauseous trying to watch. Please go back to the regular camera view in the regular season. Thank you

Skycam as the #snf primary camera at the line of scrimmage for every play? pic.twitter.com/3vmr8QC43w

We don’t like change. Change is bad.
