I'd rather have smoking Jay Cutler back in the booth over this shite show.


Fox needs to pay AL Michaels whatever he wants (buy our his Amazon deal if need be) and team him with Brady as soon as he hits the booth because this is just amateur hour for a #1 crew on a big network.

My favorite part is when Olson tells me how a QB dissects defenses.

But Gronk, who played the same position as Olson, only way better, admitted multiple times that he never watched a minute of tape while he was in the NFL and had Brady tell him everything he needed to know before a game.

Yep... That's who I want telling me about the nuances of the game in watching

Holy circular reasoning, Batman.

I like Olsen
It’s actually been refreshing w/o Aikman buck

You wanna stick tGOAT PBP guy w/a neophyte and completely green color guy for your #1 crew?

Go home. You're drunk.

The FOX playoff games without Buck and Aikman feel like regular noon games between two losing teams

People shite on Buck and I do too, but Buck is one of those announcers where it feels like a big game when he’s calling it


Because you mentally associate him with big games because he was the #1 guy for 20 years

ESPN thought the problem with MNF was the announcers… it wasn’t. No announcer in the world can make shite games watchable

Bingo. Just look at Thursday Night Football this year with Michaels and Herbstreit.

Michaels even said during a radio interview that he's not a used car salesman. If a game is awful, and everyone can see it's awful, it's not his job to tell you otherwise.

They aren't bad. Olson is solid and Burkardt is really good. It took a little getting used to from Buck and Aikman

I think Olsen is good and people are just trying to find reasons not to like him.

Baw, 1st Fox game this year?


This is pretty common to be honest. The playoffs are watched by significantly more people

Yeah, I like Burkhardt and Olsen fine. Olsen has really improved since he first started in the booth.

Who do people think should be FOX's #1 team out of this lineup?

That’s the point. Fox is trash without Joe Buck and Troy Aikman

I listened to Kugler on many Westwood One games. He's far and away better than Davis. I thought Oliver retired by now.

Well, good thing Davis isn’t calling this game! It’s Kevin Burkhardt

Right. I was replying to the person who asked who should replace Burkhart and Olson.

My bad. I like both, though Davis is better on baseball.

They are all bad and if you cut the audio the right way it can sound very dirty.

Dirty talking Announcers
