DCarp1231 Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 Anybody know the Swift-Mahomes commentary ratio? Also, the announcers constantly undermining Zach Wilson’s game by saying :censored: like “Aaron Rodgers would’ve scored there” is sickening. It’s not a good look either that Colinsworth is out there gargling Mahomes’ balls in the booth. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fowler Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 Former Patriots All-Pro TE Russ Francis was killed in a plane crash in Lake Placid, NY. He also won a Super Bowl with the 49ers in 1984. He was 70. RIP 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s legit the very last thing I want my football coverage inundated with. It’s straight up creepy to me that people care so much about this. She goes on the international leg of her tour the beginning of November, so maybe another month of possible seeing her at Chiefs games. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCarp1231 Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 @CS85 I wouldn’t be surprised if Fields did what he did against Denver against Washington this Thursday and actually stuck the landing. The Commanders defense is supposed to be one of the top in the league and can’t cover or tackle worth pig :censored:. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not watch, as SNF pregame indicated the broadcast would be treated as be more of a Hollywood award show than an actual football game. But the Zach Wilson slander seems like it was a clear directive based on Rodney Harrison's disrespectful commentary -- which I just touched on the Media thread. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not a good look either that Colinsworth is out there gargling Mahomes’ balls in the booth. I've mentioned before that I don't watch FNIA unless my team (Dolphins) is being featured (which is also rarely). I will add to this and say that I usually don't watch SNF games unless both teams featured generate my interest, or if it's my team. When I watched Miami play in their first SNF game in a while against the Steelers last year, it reminded me of how much of a toolbag Colinsworth is. I couldn't get enough of his constant "Never count out the Pittsburgh Steelers! This is what they do!" blabber. Like dude, STFU. I seriously contemplated putting the game on mute. The whole NFL on NBC coverage is just unbearable. I didn't watch the game last night, and like many Sunday nights, I didn't miss anything noteworthy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DG_ThenNowForever Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 Remember when NFL on NBC was by far the best show? Like, it was embarrassing for CBS, Fox and ESPN how much better NBC did with it? I hate that modern media is a race to the bottom.

Love love love John Madden. But by the time he got to NBC, he was a shell of his former self. A lot of confused rambling. He was a pretty hard listen in those final years. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 As with Al Michaels doing play-by-play for a website, a slightly diminished John Madden was still something special and pretty damn good. NBC indeed had the best presentation of any network, but they tinkered with it into oblivion and took away anyone and anything that made the game: the Rockefeller Center, Al Michaels, Bob Costas, Fred Gaudelli, a recognizable John Williams score instead of just LOUD SOUNDS. It feels like ESPN coverage, especially on the studio side: some dudes who got fired from the jobs they'd rather have and a woman so that no one can get mad at them. 1 Quote ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Around the Horn Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 FNIA went downhill the moment they started adding segments from the stadium in the middle of the broadcast and cut down the amount of time they showed the day's highlights 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 That's an excellent point. The whole idea behind Football Night in America was that it was the replacement for NFL Primetime. I'm sure the idea was that highlights are obsolete When There's So Much Great Content On TikTok and more pregame content is a higher priority, but it was a nice way to wrap up the day and head into the last game of the weekend. There's also their years-long commitment to Tony Dungy, who is controversial without being interesting. 2 Quote ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DG_ThenNowForever Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 There's an assumption that highlights don't matter anymore because of Twitter and TikTok or whatever, but is that really true for the 60 year olds who can afford tickets? We've been trained to skip highlights so it's a self-fulfilling prophecy now. They're done. But they used to be so good!
