Might be confusing Michaels with Bon Jovi, who absolutely did say he would never set foot in town again.  Thank goodness for small miracles.

Do you believe in small miracles?!

It’s seems like another rumored conspiracy theory. Is Al’s uncle also some Taco Bell owner who hides a kidnapping ring under the drive through? “I heard it from a person who heard it from a caller on GR”

well, to be fair, a lot of people do confuse Al Michaels and Bon Jovi all the time.

Didn't Tirico say that he would be in Bufffal next week, during the Bills/Colts game?

During the post game show, Michaels said that "We" have an exciting game next week.

 

Sounds like he will be there.

By "we" he may have meant NBC.

Al Michaels didn’t come to town to cover the SNF Pitt/Buf game earlier this year because of the Covid. Tirico subbed for him. 
 

I heard on WGR that week leading up to the game that Michaels has said he would never set foot in town again. 
 

What’s that all about?  Is there anything to it?

Don't think there was anything to that, no.

 

He and Collinsworth will be doing our game Saturday night.

 

He mentioned it several times during tonight's game.

Given that Michaels is already in Pittsburgh plus he would miss out on NBC’s primetime game of the divisional round, no way he isn’t calling the game.  Allen v Jackson will have huge ratings.  What reasonable excuse would he have?

He isn't walking from Pittsburgh to Buffalo! 

 

He'll fly home tonight I'm sure and fly into Buffalo maybe Friday.

 

I think the NBC guys like to get into town a day early and do interviews and what not.

It could be the royal we meaning broadcast team whomever it was composed of.

I could see a broadcaster making excuses having to mouth PFF stats.

He will not. It’s about Covid related restrictions. The Bills night game next Saturday is a CBS game I believe.

It is on NBC

And it is not like these guys are flying coach.   They have their own planes or at the minimum planes chartered by NBC

Will definitely be listening to the Bills broadcast no matter how delayed I have to be from real-time.  Collingsworth makes my skin crawl

It will probably be the standard Sunday Night Football crew Tirico doing the pre game and halftime shows, but most likely from Buffalo instead of the studio and Michaels doing the play by play with Collingsworth. If it turns out to be Tirico doing the play by play I am fine with that. I have been a fan of his play calling since he started calling Syracuse University games on the radio
