Kelso will be missed. I wish Wood well, but liked Kelso a lot

ummm, that IS what a color guy should do during a radio broadcast. Bring to the audience a visual of what is going on.

It rarely was visual to me.  It was as *though he was drawing random, unconnected lines on a blackboard.

Right on. I always thought Kelso was probably too analytical for some ( probably folks who liked Madden .. “ did’ya see that ? boom ! bam ! He got right up in there like a big ol’ slobber knocker and whammed ‘em. Dang that’s good stuff! “ ) but I liked him. Especially on the radio, where you don’t have the visual to go on. He’d be overkill on a TV broadcast, but I welcomed Kelso’s detail in telling you exactly what happened.

So how did EWood do last night? I read a few comments in the game thread that he sounded ok.

I thought Wood was really good.

Great timing. Great observations.

 

I thought Kelso was always a bit too descriptive, rushing to get too much information in.

 

I was very impressed.

Thought his comments and insight were great, but seemed to lack chemistry with Murphy. I'm sure that will come with time though

That’s great to hear. I always thought he had smooth, smart delivery in his interviews. I hope he sticks around in this gig longer than his previous one.

Going to miss Kelso, for sure. Didn't get to hear more than the first defensive series on the radio last night. Watched the rest on TV. Glad to hear it sounds like he did pretty well, for his first game.

I think Wood will do a great job.  Now all they need to do is find a replacement for Murph.

Throughly enjoyed Wood’s perspective and his delivery was just fine.

[YoloinOhio]

I only heard part of it but he was great

Eric Wood has a bad neck, this will never work

 

 

 

..

A bad neck is actually a sought after quality in an analyst because they will stick their neck out for no one. 

[thunderingsquid]

He did really really well.  He called bad calls what they were, pulled no punches. 

 

I listened on SiriusXM and really enjoyed it.  

 

Love a fresh new voice and he broke down the offense so well, not surprised.

Kelso's technical analysis and knowledge of all aspects of the game was fantastic.  He was way over the head of most color guys doing NFL games.  

 

But Wood is an intelligent, well spoken guy.  I think he'll be good at it.

Def delay it’s annoying. Adjust your time gap with DVR you’ll be ?.

They used to use another station to sync up with the tv or for people at the stadium. I think it was on 1520. No idea if they still do it
