Bills Fan in MD Posted December 3 Posted December 3 (edited) What about the story he told about being a kid and thinking that it would automatically start snowing the minute the temperature dropped below 32? I know he told it to sound endearing, but any kid mature enough to understand the freezing point of water should have a basic understanding of how rain and snow form. It just made him look like an idiot. Edited December 3 by Bills Fan in MD 1 2 Quote
KingBoots8 Posted December 3 Posted December 3 Watching the TD lateral again and you can hear him in the background going “No, no, noooo!” What a doofus 1 1 Quote
The Wiz Posted December 3 Posted December 3 Keyshawn reacting to them giving Allen praise will always make my day. And Marvin took a shot at Keyshawn and Diggs. Quote
GunnerBill Posted December 3 Posted December 3 (edited) It was a stupid comment. I actually don't think Collinsworth and Tirico were very good last night. But all things considered they are still the best of the big five booths for me. And so to contradict @Simon's statement one of the things I look forward to the most when I tune into SNF is the quality of the announcing. I find at least one half of all the other A teams insufferable. Edited December 3 by GunnerBill 1 Quote

Behindenemylines Posted December 3 Posted December 3 (edited) Problem is with CC is that I don’t want a totally silent game. Little true info is added by the commentators that i couldn’t figure out myself just watching the game. But maybe I’ve been trained overhears quiet is disconcerting. The dribble is annoying though Edited December 3 by Behindenemylines Quote

I think his ending comment was something to the effect of “that will make surgery go easier for you” in referencing Mike T’s upcoming surgery. He’s terrible. 1 1 Quote
Savage Posted December 3 Posted December 3 1 hour ago, Simon said: I'll fold this into the random head thread but this was so stupid I've got to point it up first. So anybody with two eyes knows that Greg Rousseau has inarguably been one of the stoutest, best run-defending DE's in the NFL since about 10 minutes after he stepped on to the field. He's been beating the dogspit out of OT's for 4 straight years with virtually no let-up and both film and analytics consistently suggest he's arguably the best in the world at it. He made a play last night and CreeperC said (paraphrasing) "Greg Rousseau, he's long and strong but it seems like he's finally starting to add a little physicality to his game" Are you f'ing kidding me? Even a cursory investigation into him at any point would suggest he's one of the most physical DE's in football and this is the analysis you want to provide during a game? How in the hell has it gotten to the point where a network can gladly put a creepy moron that everybody hates on the air every week for so many years? Note to NFL suits: Nobody is turning on SNF to hate watch him; he is not helping you in any way. People are literally turning the sound down (the sound your advertiser's are paying for) just because they want to watch some football on Sunday night. Ratings aren't going to go down and may go up if you get rid of him. Wake up and recognize that he is a net negative you dolts. I don’t like CC either. he really turned me off a few years ago when covering a Bills game. his disdain for the Bills is obvious. F- him that being said, aren’t you being a little over generous about Rousseau? he’s good, far from great, hopefully he becomes great. 1 Quote

Dan Posted December 3 Posted December 3 11 minutes ago, Beck Water said: What did Collinsworth say to justify inserting Mahomes into that play? Oh, is THAT what that comment was about? I could NOT figure that out. I think he was alluding to Kelce always wanting to lateral to someone and score a TD. And bam… Allen and Cooper just did it with out planning it! Also I think his .. no..no.. no.. reaction during the play… in my mind.. was a literal breakdown of announcing and for a moment he was just a fan of Allen and was in disbelief of the play.. just as we all were. That was a true shock reaction to a play that just no one could believe happened! 1 3 Quote

Simon Posted December 3 Author Posted December 3 3 hours ago, FireChans said: The context of island games I don't know what an island game is but I do feel like the Bills have had enough SNF games that a color guy should be able to avoid making statements that are literally the exact opposite of accurate. 3 hours ago, klos63 said: No matter how often Collinsworth praises Allen, the team, the fans... you guys are like clockwork... he doesn't love us enough. Just don't listen to him, it's not that hard to focus on the action and not the announcers, but that would spoil the fun of complaining. I'm not a 12 year old girl and I don't give a shlt if he likes us or not. Just be competent. 2 1 Quote

I was referring to his strength in defending the run from the DE position. He is arguably the most effective 4-3 DE in the NFL at doing that. 38 minutes ago, Man with No Name said: Collinsworth is awesome and was very positive about us last night. the insecurity here is immeasurable.

BigDingus Posted December 3 Posted December 3 Wait, so why is he "creepy" though? He's annoying as hell & constantly glazes Mahomes (even when he's not calling a Cheifs game), but I feel like I'm missing some context about the "creepy" part 😅 Quote
Simon Posted December 3 Author Posted December 3 1 hour ago, Beck Water said: What did Collinsworth say to justify inserting Mahomes into that play? He was probably thinking of Kelce's propensity to toss laterals mid-play and his mindless jabbering just included Mahomes. 21 minutes ago, BigDingus said: Wait, so why is he "creepy" though?

I actually like Tirico; I just think he's stuck dragging an albatross that he probably like secretly hates. 3 1 1 Quote
