NFL on National TV: Ranking the Best and Worst Play-By-Play/Analysts

9
Vote

by SSreporters

The Grand Finale is here. Today, we're rating the best NFL analysts/pbp men on the 3 national broadcasters (NBC, ESPN, NFL Network). We start off with the pbp men.

  1. Al Michaels. Honestly, he seems to be less and less interested in calling NFL games. But, he's still the cream of the crop, and is the only person in the world to witness 2 miracles (Tony Romo, USA Ice Hockey Olympic Team).
  2. Mike Tirico. He is a good pbp guy for College Football, but he seems to be dragged down in the MNF booth. He gets caught up in the stupid interviews and whatnot, and I think that makes him out of his element. If it were just him and Jaws, MNF would be semi-watchable.
  3. Bryant Gumbel. If you need an explanation (assuming you've listened to him commentate), you are a certified retard. For the retards, this guy should just stick to journalism. So Mr. Gumbel, here are some things you must know by next year.
  • The shot clock doesn't exist in the NFL.
  • Al Gore isn't an NFL player. Frank Gore is the name you're looking for.
  • You don't turn it over on downs after a missed 3rd down conversion. That's the CFL, not the NFL.

Now for the analysts:

  1. Ron Jaworski. Haven't heard him do any analysis, but he is already better than the rest of the clowns on this list.
  2. Tie: Kornheiser, Cris Collinsworth, John Madden. They all suck really badly. Madden is just wanting to marry Brett Favre. Tony Kornheiser is a slightly better version of Dennis Miller. Collinsworth works with Gumbel, so that drags him down on contact.

Any agreements? Disagreements?

I disagree on Collinsworth. I think he's very good.

How can you say that MNF would be better with just Jaws and Tirico and then rank Kornheiser as one of the top analyst?

Joe Theismann was the most annoying irritating presence in the broadcast booth in the history of televised football. End of discussion!

Theismann's head is up Tom Brady's backside more than Madden with Favre.

Theismann is bar far the worst announcer in the anals of sports history. In fact, the only reason I like Kornheiser is because of his open dislike for Theismann.

I am in favor of polygamy if it means John Madden and Brett Favre can finally be together. Who are we to stand in the way of true love?

Gumbel and Collinsworth are terrible, along with Theisman, I think the best in the game right now are Aikman and Buck. They are entertaining and actually no what they are doing unlike the guys listed above.
