What's your opinion of him on television? I think he's one of the most smug people on t.v. It's almost like he thinks he's doing you a favor by being on camera...

Is anyone worse?

he's not that bad calling the games.

he's not my favorite though.

I thought he used to do a good job on Inside the NFL but the direction that show has taken the last few years sucks anyway.

That's a fair assessment.

Absolutely. Collinsworth, if you can handle the delivery, is actually pretty decent at his job.

He's smug, but that's par for the course for most UF grads I know. And it's Cris, like the female spelling.

Collinsworth is one of my favorites. I don't see how you think he's smug, unless you just don't like the way his voice sounds. I think he is one of the more insightful guys, actually knows his football and doesn't just say obvious cliche shite.

find most analyst terrible but there is something about Collinsworth's smugness is ridiculous and have been calling it out for years.
liked him as a player but he is now unbearable.

agreed, the man knows his shite.

I see how he can come off as smug, but I don't think its intentional

I like Collinsworth and Mayock for the most part. Maybe I just like watching the world burn.

He's probably the 2nd best NFL color guy, after Mayock

If you think Collinsworth isn't smug, then you probably do not know the definition of the word smug. Ftr, the way someone's voice sounds, like they're talking down to you, is one of the major factors related to being labelled 'smug'

Him and Al are one of the more tolerable duos these days IMO. Gary and Verne are some of the lowest quality on TV.
