According to sports media insider Andrew Marchand, former New Orleans QB Drew Brees might be moving from NBC to Fox. Per the report, he has been identified as a candidate to replace Troy Aikman as the No. 1 color commentator on their NFL game coverage...

quote:
While Greg Olsen remains the leading in-house candidate to become Fox Sports’ No. 1 NFL game analyst, sources say that Brees is in the mix.

Even if Brees leaves NBC for Fox, Olsen could still be promoted to Fox’s lead team with Kevin Burkhardt.

In that scenario, Brees would team with Joe Davis or Adam Amin on the No. 2 team. Brees and Olsen were both rookie NFL analysts last year.

Well he and Brittney still have to suck Malcolm Jenkins' and Michael Thomas' c*cks if he goes to Fox?

Ole Drew "The Knees" Brees is back in the news? Has he rehabbed from his knee surgeries?

Olsen was the better of the two last year by a mile.

I'm surprised. In a much less pressure filled situation, I didn't think Brees did that great of a job at the desk. He was a step up from Witten and Booger but that's not saying much. Super vanilla commentary and doesn't say anything you don't think of.

IMHO, Brees was all out bad and much worse than Booger.

Romp is the best commentator in the game. Hands down. Dude is like he’s in the huddle and on the headset with the coaches. He is just freaky good and smart. Calling plays before they even happen.

Drew Brees is a bald headed bastard.

Going from desk, to number 1 color In less than a year, so much for moving up the ranks.
