machine gun kelly Posted October 27, 2020 Posted October 27, 2020 The obvious is Romo, amd keast yes, Collinsworth is a pain. On the radio since you said not Buffalo, Gene Deckerhoff is funny to me, but biased as I love down here. “FIRE THE CANNONS”. He also does FSU games.

I think he is incredibly knowledgeable, but my knock on him is he doesn't know when to shut up, he continues on and on and on, sometimes the best thing to do is let a viewer watch the game without having a comment on the minutia. Vin Scully was a master at knowing when to shut up. Edit: My favorite is Romo. Edited October 27, 2020 by BruceVilanch forgot to add my favorite. 1

Was going to say the same thing. He just brings a certain energy to the game that suits college IMO, adds so much to the experience of the game.

You just reminded me with you’re comments of Van. Mr. Miller was a nice guy, just like Larry Felser, and was lucky to get to know them as my dad worked as an executive for the Buffalo News for 44 years. It was a fun college job for me getting to know some of those guys. I know Van wasn’t a News guy, but he and my dad became friends over the years. Good take Bruce. 1
GunnerBill Posted October 27, 2020 Posted October 27, 2020 (edited) Romo is #1. Unpopular take but Collinsworth is easily my #2. Worst is Rich Gannon. Cannot stand him. Talks utter rubbish and always appears to have done minimal research on the teams he is watching. Oh yea and Aikman is easily the worst of the #1 team guys. If you enjoy watching a replay so that a color guy can just repeat the thing that was obvious from the original tv angle then Troy is your guy. Edited October 27, 2020 by GunnerBill 1

Buddo Posted October 27, 2020 Posted October 27, 2020 Romo, comfortably. I thought Aikman was awful the last Bills game he did. / Fwiw I always try to listen to the ‘broadcast’ commentary, for a supposedly unbiased viewpoint, but the Allen comments nearly had me turning the sound off. I don’t think I have ever felt remotely like that before. I’m coming around on Archuleta, but Feeley is just bad. Lofton seems to have lightened up a little, but just has one of those monotone voices.
Ethan in Cleveland Posted October 27, 2020 Posted October 27, 2020 (edited) Romo is the best. Colllinsworth is second best. I don’t understand why the hate from this board. I like Archuleta and also Jay Feely is surprisingly good. Aikman is the worst On radio here in Portland, the Seahawks had Warren Moon. He was terrible then got fired for sexual harassment complaint. Now they have some horrible former linebacker or safety that is so bad I don't even have the interest to look up his name. Seahawks radio play by play guy is not bad. A not too over the top homer.

JESSEFEFFER Posted October 27, 2020 Posted October 27, 2020 7 hours ago, 78thealltimegreat said: I was going to say least favorite but I think half of the threads would be Cris Collinsworth...so I was thinking of favorite non bills announcer and I’ve always enjoyed Chris Spielman calling a game seems like he would make a great coach if he wanted to get into it i think Spielman is great and deserves higher profile games but....................... Spielman Bills.webp
Gugny Posted October 27, 2020 Posted October 27, 2020 Collinsworth can bring some good insight. But his voice really gets on my nerves and he fellates the QBs du jour far too much and too blatantly. I hope Romo never gives in to that crap, because right now he's at the top of the game Aikman never really bugged me, but this year I find him really difficult to listen to.
Halloween Land Posted October 27, 2020 Posted October 27, 2020 Best Play by Play for me: Al Michaels, Jim Nantz, Mike Trico, Kevin Harlan Best Color Analyst: Tony Romo

Felser always seemed to have a sense of cool. Knew when to attack, knew when to back off. You knew you weren't getting the wool pulled over your eyes nor was he a homer. Van? Well Van WAS the man!!! The voice of the Bills!
OZBILLS Posted October 27, 2020 Posted October 27, 2020 I like Collinsworth and Michaels because people dislike them Same as Booger. Liked him. Love Romo. In fact, I love them all
JMF2006 Posted October 27, 2020 Posted October 27, 2020 Mine is Gary Danielson former Lions QB and CBS College Color Commentator In the NFL its Romo hands down as the best
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted October 27, 2020 Posted October 27, 2020 Tony Romo . I mean come on He's the best.

He was horrendous on Sunday. Showed severe lack of understanding what was occurring in the game. What do you like about Gannon? agreed on Romo. I like Aikman when he isn’t calling a Bills game. I always liked Daryl Johnston. Haven’t heard him in awhile. Just checked and it says he is still with Fox. crazy all these are ex-Cowboys. Guess I have forgiven them!

He said a couple on Sunday, can’t remember at the top of my head. Maybe it’s not that Gannon is “good”, but he just doesn’t annoy me as much as the other analysts lol. Good call on Johnston. I think he’s a good analyst as well. 1
Luka Posted October 27, 2020 Posted October 27, 2020 Kirk Herbstreit is excellent. Wish he called NFL games. The two he did this year were great. I also like Gus Johnson. NFL commentators just aren't as good. Romo and Nantz are the preferred pairing. I don't think anyone else is even close.
DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted October 27, 2020 Posted October 27, 2020 Howard Cosell, Frank Gifford and "Dandy" Don Meredith.
