Rex Ryan sounded like a dumber Dan Fouts

I thought Beth Mowins (sp?) did really good. Not "good for a woman" just good.

I think Rex may have been drunk and Sergio made me laugh out loud. When they first cut to him, I thought some special needs kid won some sort of contest like "sideline reporter for a day".

I know I'm in the minority, but I didn't really have an issue with Beth Mowins. Was she MNF good? No, but she didn't ruin the game for me.

Rex Ryan was about as bad as I expected him to be.

I was so uncomfortable watching Sergio that I almost changed the channel. I'm glad I didn't.

Rex just never seems to look natural out there. That was my initial impression in the preseason.

They should just pick three random fans every week and let them Call the game.

An argument could be made that she single-handedly saved that broadcast.

He rallied a bit in the second half, but was still laughably bad.

I'm not just trying to be funny. I really thought he was some fan that won a contest.

Well Rex is at his most natural when he's dropping four-letter words every other minute. It's not a surprise that he's uncomfortable on basic cable where he has to tone it down.

Not random. Pools of latinos, hot women and war vets.
One must speak spanish. One must be an ot8 female.
The english speakers are a hot female and a TD poster who fought in korea and tells war stories.

The one speaking spanish can use a golf whisper and talk over the veteran guy.

Edit to acknowledge i find this idea so funny i cant stop laughing.

I think Ru Paul would be the most entertaining color commentator in the history of color commentary.

I don't think Mowins is bad at her job, she just has a terrible voice. I thought Rex was ok, but I like guys that will actually talk X's and O's and not sunshine pump every player. A few times he talked about setting the edge, db leverage, stuff like that. He's definitely wasn't great, but I didn't hate him.

Sergio Dipp is Sergio Dipp

Lulz. She was below average, stuttered multiple times, and was overall not great. Rex being pure dog shite doesn't mean she was great. It was a horrendous presentation.

Yes she's pretty clueless. Said the FG was missed when it was blocked. She misses a lot of stuff and tries way too hard to make up for her general lack of football acumen.

Rex is horrible too but I still like him.

There's nothing wrong with Beth Mowins play by play other than the sound of her voice making my ears bleed.

Beth mowins isn't bad at play by play in a vacuum, but I just can't imagine her having good chemistry with a good color guy, like not even close to the level of Tony Romo and Jim Nantz. She doesn't have a funny bone in her body, and her voice is painful on the ears.

She was the best one on the broadcast by a long shot yesterday

I think he meant Don Fouts. HOF qb for the Bengals back. In the day. Lead them to a victory over the steelers in the Ice Bowl back In the 70s.

Rex was awful. And Beth did do a good job.
