Chris Collinsworth is really falling off as a commentator

I used to think he was okay, but he has gotten to be pretty bad. He makes the dumbest comments sometimes.

I swear 90% of that job is just sounding right. All of those guys are doing impressions of one another. Most of the time you don't even know what they're saying, so as long as they have the right sound they stay employed.

When you stop and listen to what they're actually saying, it's mostly cliches and 'look at this' type stuff.

I like Collinsworth, He and Michaels are always solid.

who could possibly disagree with this? CC is an annoying voice version of sleepy Troy Aikmen.

Hes really good. Now that Romo has toned it down from an 8 to a 5, hes the best. But without Collinsworth I bet we dont get Romo.

Hes a trailblazer and was best in business for 5 years

Do people like any commentators? Or PBP announcers for that matter?

I always say if you don't like the play-by-play and color commentator get a friend to come over to your house one does play by play the other one does color commentary problem solved

Tony Romo should have that seat before long. He’s too good, young, and handsome to not have the SNF job, the most important game of the week.

The real question is who takes Al Michaels’ job when he retires? Al is the GOAT and I’ll miss him when he calls it quits. I’m on board with Mike Tirico, and I assume he was hired by NBC with the understanding the job will be eventually his.

This is a guy that sees the play called dead and feels it to be his time to complete the longest sentences possible by the time the offense breaks huddle again.

I liked Tirico and Gruden... And Tess too. Michaels and Collinsworth go after the old demographic lol

Look how long it took CBS to finally push Simms out. Oh, how I miss the days of Summerall and Madden.
