FOX decided to make a notable change to its NFL broadcast for Super Bowl 59, and football fans are not happy.
The network unveiled a new scorebug for The Big Game. On the first drive of the game from New Orleans between the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles, fans and media members flocked to social media to voice disapproval with the new look.

Listen I don’t like calling for anybody’s job. But whoever approved this scorebug needs to be fired. It’s all I can think about
