I think he's great.

Love him and Gary Danielson. Sue me.

Absolutely. His analysis is OK but damn...that voice.

ETA: I take it back. He just said, "The significance of this play cannot be underestimated."

He's okay. His voice is terrible and his biases tend to come out from time to time but he's alright otherwise.

Romo is phenomenal though. He really makes it apparent how terrible some announcers like Phil Simms are.

Better than Danielson, knows his football. Yea he's a Florida homer but doesn't call college thank god.

Just looking at Collinsworth, you’d never guess he played professional football, even when he was playing professional football.

Y’all jealous of his smugness. Guy was a 3x pro bowler, has a law degree, has won 15 sports emmys and owns a leading stat business.

I like him as a color analyst, but I can't stand his voice.

Agreed.

Half of us posters could do a better job with the color commentating.

Knew someone was gonna bring up the law degree as if that means something relative to Collinsworth (it doesn’t, he’s not a lawyer and he’s played the game therefore he has inside knowledge for analysis). I should create a game that rewards the first person to bring up the Collinsworth law degree since that’s been mentioned in practically every topic concerning him as if it means something massive. LOL

It’s the voice, he actually provides sensical and descriptive commentary which reflects great on him it’s almost like a Ben Stein Effect: brilliance but sometimes obfuscated by a grating voice

I came in here expecting this to be about how he had to listen to Al call every other play an RPO despite 90% of them being just regular arse play action.

He even corrected Al once by saying something like, "That play was a straight play action."

Seemed like after that Al started to get the hint, or Collinsworth bitched at him off air, because I don’t think he said it once past that point.

That nasally voice is terrible when coupled with a double dose of smug

He was great on the NFL Network, but once NBC told him to dumb it down, he filled the vacuum with smug.

A gutsy pro

All star

I'm done with him as analyst.
Last season and this one, he's trite and smug.

He’s fine. He tempers the insufferable know-it-all Al Michaels.

I'm not sure which is more annoying. Chris Collinsworth's voice or the Eagles fight song.

That being said he beats the sh*t out of Joe Buck and Troy Aikman. Not because or their voices either, they are just fricking stupid.
