NFL on FOX Announcer Groups

[EmpireWF]

A - Buck, Aikman and Oliver -- Erin Andrews will join them beginning on Thanksgiving.

B - Albert, Johnston and Siragusa

C - Brennaman, Billick and Laura Okmin

D - Stockton, Lynch and Jennifer Hale

E - Myers (holy shit he's terrible at PBP), Tim Ryan and Jaime Maggio

F - Sam Rosen and Heath Evans

G - Ron Pitts and MIKE MARTZ



For all the MMA guys, is Martz just like Frank Mir as a commentator?

I've underlined the guys who no longer should be doing NFL football games.

Buck - annoying, doesn't know shit, offers nothing to the actual commentary (down & distance, substitute packages, etc.)

Brennnaman - almost as bad as Buck. Will try to talk football, but I would rather Billick broadcast the game by himself.

Stockton - are you serious? Cannot see the action in front of him, much less describe it. Lynch is pretty terrible, too.

Myers - probably the worst PBP guy I've ever heard who is on a "national" level. Completely clueless about football.

Ryan - douchebag

Martz - soft, effeminante voice probably won't go over well.

Amazing how Myers keeps climbing the depth chart, despite how terrible he is. He is the worst pbp man i've ever heard.

John Lynch has leapfrogged Tim Ryan. Interesting.

Also interesting that when Joe Buck takes off to do MLB, it's Thom Brennaman that takes his place, and not Kenny Albert.

Brennaman & Billick are by far the best FOX crew, and it's not even close.

Can't wait to hear Mike Martz, and he's working with the always under appreciated Ron Pitts, who is very good but is always on the #7 team. Probably because he's black.

 

[Warner2BruceTD]

I know I say this every year, but the announcer depth charts are the most exciting thing about the NFL offseason. I anticipate this stuff more than the draft.

 

[ralaw]

I wonder how long it will take for them to replace Pam Oliver with Erin Andrews..........SMH.

 

[JeremyHight]

Am I the only one who hates Tony Siragusa? I think it started when he bashed Joey Harrington back in the day, but man, I cannot stand listening to the guy.

What was the difference between him and everyone else bashing Harrington :lol:

I don't mind him...he's not really a part of the regular announcing team, he's a third wheel that pipes in with an occassional clunker...like Killgod at the VSN Mod meetings.

 

[FedEx227]

He's pretty worthless though in the long run.

"HEY GUYS REALLY COLD DOWN HERE URLACHER SAYS HIS TEAMS READY TO PLAY SOME DEFENSE THANKS GUYS!"

 

[Hasselbeck]

Can't believe they aren't putting Gus on NFL again.

 

[Hasselbeck]

W2B can attest to this too.. being an NFC West fan.. we're usually stuck with groups D-G

 

[FedEx227]

For the Bears we get TONS of Dick Stockton, which is always a blast.

Ron Pitts & I can finish each others sentences.

 

[Hasselbeck]

Ron Pitts & I can finish each others sentences.

Last year, I swear Chad Pennington was doing color for half of the Seahawks games.

Ron Pitts & I can finish each others sentences.

 

[NAHSTE]

FOX coverage is horrendous, but CBS's lead crew with Simms and Nantz might be even worse.

Billick is tremendous, but Brennaman calling football just doesn't do it for me. I'm just happy Charles Davis is uninvolved this year, because that guy is just the fucking worst.

 

[ralaw]

Tomax and Xamot!!! You took it back

 

[dboy_dc]

In all honesty, I like the NFC broadcast way better than the AFC broadcast. Seems to be more entertaining

 

[BigBucs]

Pitts and Martz are doing the Bucs/Panthers game week one. Good thing I wont have to watch that shit on TV :yao: Billicks Crew should be A listers.

Not defending any of those folks, but are there any NFL announcers you like?

Sidenote: I thought Jesse Palmer was amazing as a color/colour guy in his one season on FOX. Yeah, he's dreamy ... but really, his analysis was impressive too.



In Canada, on my satellite system (Bell), we have Olympic channels with no commentary, no commercials, no puff pieces ... just the event with the mics on the event. Amazing way to watch sports.
