T master Posted September 27, 2020 Posted September 27, 2020 (edited) Ever since Murph retired they have been trying to find another mix (i guess you could call it) of who was going to be the lead commentator so at first they put Tasker as the lead guy tossed in Maddy & Browny it just didn't seem to be a good listen Tasker just isn't a good lead guy . Then Chris Brown was off for a few days for what ever it was that he talked about then he came back and they put him as the lead and the show seems to have a better flow to it Chris gets a bit excited at times which just adds so much to the commentary of the show . So what do you all think ? Better ? or Worse since Browny took over the lead role on the show ? GO BILLS !! Edited September 27, 2020 by T master

Either way he’s retired now, just wondering how it went down. as long as Maddy isn’t on the show, ill listen occasionally.

Not exactly sure how it went down alls i know is he's gone but i seem to remember him talking about leaving and that he was just going to enjoy more time with his new grand baby not sure if it was a forced thing or a choice ...
TCC Posted September 27, 2020 Posted September 27, 2020 Tcrane2121@gmail.com i agree. As long as Maddy isn’t on the show, I’ll listen. She just sounds so young. CB is fine but he tends to talk over Tasker and I want to hear Tasker. Ultimately, I miss Murph!
Bills Fan In Pittsford Posted September 27, 2020 Posted September 27, 2020 Chris Brown has made the broadcast almost unlistenable for me. He never stops talking. He constantly talks over Tasker, interrupting him or finishing his thoughts for him. Drives me nuts. Also, he is way louder than Tasker, and I have to keep turning the volume up and down in my car. I know Tasker is not great, but they do not make a good team at all. I thought Murph and Tasker were much better.
fansince88 Posted September 27, 2020 Posted September 27, 2020 Let me start by saying I enjoyed the show in the past. In the last 6 months it was all about the covid. I hear enough of it in everyday life I don't need 3 hours on how the team is handling it and how bad it is. I listen to the first 20 minutes on the way home from work. If they don't have great guests I don't bother listening to the rest.
PirateHookerMD Posted September 27, 2020 Posted September 27, 2020 There are so many better podcasts/content creators out there in the Bills universe that unless you have hours a day to listen to Bills content I don't know why you would bother with this show.
jimmy10 Posted September 27, 2020 Posted September 27, 2020 Chris Brown seems to be bringing that Fozzie Bear “wocka wocka wocka!” energy. The thing I liked about Murph as host is it felt more like a couple of buddies quietly talking football over a beer at the end of the bar. I can see how the WGR execs wanted “more energy!” but time will tell if it was the right call. Does anyone know if Murph wanted out of the midday show, or was the decision made for him? I can see how an announcer like Murph at this stage of his career would want to step back from the grind of doing a daily show.
MJS Posted September 27, 2020 Posted September 27, 2020 (edited) I like Chris Brown a lot. Tasker is Tasker. He gives some interesting insight into what it was like being a player and in the locker room, and obviously insight into the 90's teams. But he says dumb things often and he stammers and struggles to get his thoughts out. But I don't mind him most of the time. I don't like hearing Brown and Tasker talk for a significant amount of time about non-football related things. Like the other day they discussed their patio setup for like 20 to 30 minutes. Like, does anyone care about your patio furniture and heating lamps? Edit: As far as better or worse, I'd say it is comparable. Maybe slightly better. Edited September 27, 2020 by MJS
Mrbojanglezs Posted September 27, 2020 Posted September 27, 2020 Marginally better I'd say. But I dont listen to it much though, listen to mostly podcasts
mjd1001 Posted September 27, 2020 Posted September 27, 2020 I like Brown. To me, slightly better than even Murphy on it. Not that Murphy was bad at all, just I like a change of pace every now and then, as long as the change of pace is good, and to me Brown is good.
