they need to give him the freedom tony romo used to have. seeing him dissect plays, calling out what the plays are, and letting him show himself… he’ll be great.
This might be a hot take but I actually enjoy watching games with romo announcing, his voice may not be the best for announcing but I love how he calls plays with a qb mindset like saying if a defense will blitz or if the offense is going to run for example.
I think the problem the executives had was that he was essentially calling plays right so often that they feared Romo was sucking the suspense and mystery out of it.
@@ndcentral8194 that shit was cool though. i’d rather him guess the play right then get rid of the mystery. matter of fact i think that adds more mystery because it’s gonna lead to us wondering if he’s right or wrong.
Two color commentators wouldn’t work. I’m guessing Peyton would be play by play but idk I just think it wouldn’t be very smooth. Still would like to see them try it once though
Yes… I see him becoming pretty good color commentator in time. He’s not like Joe Montana, who was really bad and it was clear he was not ever going to be comfortable on tv
Yea he’s been the definition of average commentator which is fine at this point, but it is annoying how they just replaced the guy for Greg Olsen, when Greg had a good thing going and imo just far superior.
@@Isaiah-FA3no one gives a damn about Greg Olsen when it comes to who they want to see when talking football unfortunately, Olsen might be better but because he’s TB12 people are gonna love it regardless
@@learn2xpand862 Oh yea don’t get it twisted from a business perspective I understand why Brady’s in the position that he’s in, it’s just funny to me that they paid him all this money to replace someone who does the job at the same level if not better then him.
@@Isaiah-FA3 Greg was always just a placeholder until Brady got there though. So he wasn't really replaced cause it was never Olsen's gig to begin with, just loaned lol. But yah I think it would be cool to have a 3 man booth so a more seasoned commentator doesn't just get regulated to the B team
I wish that FOX didn't just throw him out on the top spot and at least let Burkhardt and Olsen shine for another year. By far the best commentary booth in the NFL, sneaky good.
Olsen was good but he knew he only got hired until tom was done and ready. Can’t be mad if they literally told the him that the 7 time Super Bowl winner is gonna take over once he’s finished.
It's about rating everybody loves Olsen but never watched him ..Olsen did not move rating Brady does and has ...hell Netflix wanted Brady for Christmas because of ratings but fox said no ..not giving up cash cow
As someone who studies the game obsessively, having a commentator that's straight analytical and less fluff would be amazing, like you said letting Brady actually criticize players. It's better than listening to Collinsworth just making the same noise over and over again and bringing up Mahomes in a game that has nothing to do with him. So far though I actually like Brady's commentating, like in the Buccaneers game I heard a few quiet moments where you hear him say "You got him" one of them being right before the Evans TD, makes it interesting hearing the greatest QB making reads from the booth.
@@elijahechicagobearsboyd5734 notice how at first I said A commentator, not specifically Brady but since he was the topic, shockingly I used him as an example
Yeah...I'm a 49ers fan so that game killed me...but Brady's casting was one of the highlights of the game for me. Makes it even better when you consider his past and childhood and etc.

@@frederickshaibani5655 Yeah I only heard about the potential Bears-Brady deal from this video. There was a lot of talk last year of Brady going to the Raiders after he bought some stock in them, so I guess he always had some interest
In true Brady fashion, doesn't matter if they stink it up during the season. They'll be ready to put on a show in the playoffs and eventually the Super Bowl
he took over another white man job who cares. since when do woke turds care if a white man loses his job? they only rage over a no talent black guy lose his job because he is black
Answering before watching it: With that hype, that contract and him being thrown as the lead color guy from the get go - it was obvious he would not live up to it immidiately. However, I would be lying if I said he was terrible all the time. He is getting better with each game as he gains experience. I think he will be good eventually but I'm not sure if he'll ever reach the level which would be worth the amount of money he gets.
Tom Brady is being paid for ratings which he is generating so much so Netflix wanted him for the Christmas games....he IS ALSO NFL BRAND AMBASSADOR DOES THE OFF-SEASON FAN PARTICIPATION AND SPEECHES THAT HE DID...no one wants to see Olsen
8:13 100% disagree. Brady is the ultimate competitor not a hater. Calling out mediocrity in modern day NFL doesn't make you a hater. He just doesn't like how the game has evolved. Many old school veterans feel this way.
His first game was pretty bad, but I feel like he has been getting better. It feels weird for them to try to force him as a personality so hard. I mean obviously getting the GOAT to do anything is gonna be views, I just mean that I also saw him doing power rankings and stuff. Feels weird lmao.
I didn't watch his first game, but it must have been real bad because every time I hear him I feel like he's gotten worse. I just want to know why he always calls it the "red area."
The tricky part with hating is that if he leans into it too much, the viewer might start to think “why am I watching this mediocre crap?” And change the channel. Praising the players as if they’re demigods communicates to the viewer that they absolutely have to keep watching because they’re witnessing something great. That’s why the networks lean toward that style of commentary
When offenses genuinely just aren't doing a goddamn thing, not good defensive plays just bad false starts, miscommunication on routes etc, it leads to him kinda just... Not talking. If you don't have anything nice to say and can't say bad things, well then you just shut up or keep saying generic platitudes.
SnackMuay, I'm already saying TB's offering mediocre crap, and the channel is changed. Guess I'll have to hit the mute button if he comments on a game I must see.
Great and fair analysis, I especially agree about the 2-minute drill factor. Personally, I think this is just another avenue for Brady to test himself in and there’s absolutely no way he’s gonna fulfill the duration of that contract. I imagine the opportunity to call a Super Bowl this very season (instead of waiting 2-3 years for it) played a big part in him taking up the gig now
@@Bill-z4p to me it's just he's an extremely weird dude who is,the type everyone avoids at parties to avoid horrific uncomfortability. That type of guy is never going to sound good, no matter how sharp he is on the art of recognizing D's, the art of hot routes, pick plays, and by far the greatest accuracy from 3-7 yards the sport has ever seen. It's WILD how nobody ever talked about his perfect accuracy or skin ripping nuff6
I think he will good. It's kinda cool we get TB in the media sphere of football. Most people who are considered goats kinda set recede from the limelight and kinda just do weird billionaire things and just become boring . He will get better as soon as he figures himself and his teammate out.
This was a phenomenal video to pop up in my recommended. I am a lifelong diehard pats fan and you nearly mirror my own internal thoughts on TB12 as a commentator. The support he’s getting on air has been great; it’s what they’re telling him off air in my opinion. When Tom stutters I don’t necessarily believe it’s out of nervousness. I’d say that fox has likely “encouraged” him on what to say in the form of guardrails. You make a great point when you say at his price point there is no budget left for training. I think he’s stuttering because he is being put into a position where he has to talk in an unnatural flow/cadence and simply can’t come up with the words he knows fox wants him to say in time. I also big time agree that he should be doing more attacking of the teams he is watching. TB12 is known for breaking down defences. Let him get on air and explain everything that the defence is doing wrong, and then he can explain exactly where the offence is missing out on capitalizing off the defence’s mistakes. I think the people would like it more than this AI commentator fox seems to have him pigeonholed into being . Again, this was a really well made video, I really enjoyed it.
To be honest its don't even like olsson. I think everything he says is generic trash. This is actually the first time I've heard people like him. Brady is already at least on his level.
I actually like the way he interjects with excitement whenever a cool play happens and the play by play commentator is doing his thing it's like a kid watching something cool for the first time lmao
I was a broadcaster for 20-years. TV and radio. Tom is doing fine & will be very good in time. I want to trash him, but honestly, he’s better than I thought he’d be.
I recently watched the spanish commentary of the chiefs saints game and those commentators are brutally honest. They call out players organizations the nfl. Its wild
He is fine, but they need to let him unload on these fools. They don’t let him criticize the refs, and had him be vanilla af. He has started throwing some amazing nuggets of knowledge here and there more and more.
yea ive been wondering if maybe hes limiting himself due to his anxiousness or desire to not mess up. that or network pressure. maybe in time itll work itself out and the real him will come through. or, this is just him.
He been ok like he honestly have his good moments and it’s crazy that I notice week by week improvement…people forget Greg Olsen was calling games while still playing he would call a game on his bye weeks toward the end of his career and then he got hurt his last year and I remember him calling a few games so Greg had experience before doing it full time in 2021 also could re-watch himself before doing full time and Tom is literally improving week by week…Romo talks to much but obviously but you can tell he still watches a lot of film
2:34 hey that's an interesting and philosophical comment. and accurate. i may be going overboard reading into a simple comment, but i too use cosmological metaphors for describing elements of our mentally constructed world. it all fits. everything has a weight/mass, not just physically but conceptually in our minds. the higher the weight, the higher the meaning/gravity. the higher the meaning, the stronger the influence/pull it has on us. i don't hear many speak in those terms.
Romo wasn’t the best QB but he’s damn good at almost everything he tries: football, golf, basketball, speaking. Brady is a savant and a brand. I believe his personal brand and Fox’s interests are misaligned. He sells himself as a pretty generic dude and if Fox realizes that he needs to be polarizing to succeed, I’m not sure the Brady brand and Brady the announcer can coexist.
In my opinion, Tony Romo is the number one former player turned commentator Edit: How tf did I forget about Troy Aikman 🤦🏽♂️?!? He has been so good for so long, he completely slipped my mind.
It's gonna take a year and review during the offseason for him to hit his stride, but one of my favorite things about Brady that I want to see more is when he doesn't sugar coat things. I.E. in that week 2 Saints vs Cowboys broadcast, him being asked "if he would keep throwing to a receiver that made a mistake (Jalen Brooks losing his footing and causing an interception)", then saying "No, can't trust him." instead of some sugar coated "well you know I'll still give him his chances we're a team and..." crap. I love the idea of getting the actual, legitimate thought process from him even if it does put players down.
Just appreciate greatness you guys. This guy has won 7 SB RINGS. I mean, he knows what he's doing, try to listen to him as an ordinary commentator and everything's going to be fine.
I think he is fine. I'm a Bills fan but I'm genuinely interested to hear what he says about a play considering his knowledge of the game. His voice isnt annoying or anything like that. Everyone around him seems supportive so I'm all good with this.
5:13 I think that is the crux of why he feels so awkward in the booth. Being a Pats fan I have heard him speak plenty and he does say "umm" and "uh" and filler phrases like "you know?" A LOTTTT so when those are being purposefully eliminated from his vocabulary the silence that takes its place becomes very obvious.
4:28 i was in boston (from philly go birds dallas stinks) visiting a college friend for his bday in 2013 and we went to this game. it was october 2013. pats were down by a lot and around the 3rd quarter the place completely emptied due to the score and the boston red sox were in the alcs which was about to start soon. we stayed. drew brees vs. brady. a walk off td to k. thompkins as seen. to have watched brady do that was such a gift in life you can not buy.
I'm by no means a Brady fan but i actually like him calling games. IMO you have to either have 1 of two types commentating - 1) super charismatic, fun, funny, or 2) knows what the hell they're talking about and able to give actually good analysis based on extensive experience. Sure he's a bit flat, but he checks that second one. When i'm watching a game i want things broken down, not dumbed down. i dont always know what's going on in terms of formations and intricacies. Again, as much as he annoys me he didnt get where he's at without being really good at teaching his team and breaking things down so people can process them
If his name wasn't Tom Brady and you just went off of his commentary. Most people would think he's was as bad as Jason Witten. That being said maybe in a year he will better.
@@mattl8774 He just comes off as very wooden and his chemistry with Kevin Burkhardt isn't there. But yes he will most likely get better. And I'm hoping he does because he seems to cover the Cowboys alot.
I appreciate how instead of just offering criticism he offers a solution. I completely agree that if you allow him to speak his mind a little more, things might go a little better.
I say fair evaluations would be after a year, working in broadcast TV, you’ll see people make such a big evolution in their game from day one to year one
The $375 million number stuck with me in an odd way. Then it dawned on me, when Fox bought the rights to the NFC it was viewed as over paying since the AFC got about $375 million for a 5 year contract. I may have confused AFC with NFC but it does show how much the league has grown since the nineties.
As a colts fan who hated Brady as a player out of pure jealousy, he’s gonna be fantastic in the booth. No BS. I think he called the Ravens Cowboys game and it was great.
Doesn’t matter how good he is. He’s the best quarterback of all time. He’s gonna have good insight on everything. He could talk like Mike Tyson and people would still listen. Tyson himself has an audience when he talks even though some of its gibberish.
I haven’t heard him in a full game yet but I think he should be on the giants game today so I’ll enjoy hearing how he talks about us when we sick and can’t whoop him
watched him for the lions game and honestly liked him a lot more than some of the glazers that seem to commentate every other game like colinsworth n romo
I listen to him every week and i'm interested in his view on the games.. He knows more than anyone else behind the microphone.. People are upset about his salary,, Al Michaels said he thinks Brady will be one of the greatest..
Tom is developing into a very good and informative commentator. Tonight’s game Chiefs @ 49ers was his best so far. He was always going to succeed at this, his nature would allow nothing less. He is beginning to loosen up and relaxing into it now.
So far I like it, but mainly because I'm like "Oh it's Tom Brady commentating. That's so cool." The newness of it is still there which gives him the benefit of the doubt, at least for me.
Brady's my favorite athlete of all time, and I went out of my way to watch his games this season. This video is pretty much dead on. He has gotten better though. His first game was rather awkward. What's interesting is, if you watch him break down plays ANYWHERE out of the broadcasting booth, it's a goddam masterclass. He just needs to take that stuff into the booth. I recently listened to his Let's Go podcast with Belichick and he was like "and I need to make it understandable for the people watching it"... meanwhile I'm going "NO! YOU'RE DOING THAT TOO MUCH!!!"
Yes, he's good and he's also honest.. he's not going to freak out over EVERY LITTLE GAIN like others do.. and yet somehow that genuine spirit is taken for being "bad" at his job.
I live in new england so ive watched brady for his whole career!! It took him like 6-8 years to stop tossing blind throws when he was getting sacked!! Itll take him a while to get this down too!!🤷♂️🤷♂️😄😄 Ive got faith in him, if anyone can do it, its him!! Hes a preparation monster!! Hell get it!!😁😁💪💪
Dude is trying to hate so hard he called Greg Olsen "the single best color analyst working today" I think the push Tom has to reshape the best in all areas of the NFL to be cemented with a different category of greats and if he succeds then some unexpected opportunities will arise as promised.
Because he’s going to be a part owner of the Raiders, he won’t have as much access during production meetings. He also has other guidelines that he has to follow as an announcer

The support he’s getting on air has been great; it’s what they’re telling him off air in my opinion. When Tom stutters I don’t necessarily believe it’s out of nervousness. I’d say that fox has likely “encouraged” him on what to say in the form of guardrails. You make a great point when you say at his price point there is no budget left for training. I think he’s stuttering because he is being put into a position where he has to talk in an unnatural flow/cadence and simply can’t come up with the words he knows fox wants him to say in time.
I also big time agree that he should be doing more attacking of the teams he is watching. TB12 is known for breaking down defences. Let him get on air and explain everything that the defence is doing wrong, and then he can explain exactly where the offence is missing out on capitalizing off the defence’s mistakes. I think the people would like it more than this AI commentator fox seems to have him pigeonholed into being .
Again, this was a really well made video, I really enjoyed it.
Hes not great, but unfortunately Id still rather listen to him that 75% of the teams.
To be honest its don't even like olsson. I think everything he says is generic trash. This is actually the first time I've heard people like him. Brady is already at least on his level.
He’s still learning the ropes and I haven’t hated what I’m hearing so far, he’ll get it eventually
Was great on the Cardinals vs 49ers game. He had great insight while staying as unbiased to both sides. He will get better as he gets the hang of it
I actually like the way he interjects with excitement whenever a cool play happens and the play by play commentator is doing his thing it's like a kid watching something cool for the first time lmao
I'm not worried. Having followed the guy for his entire time in New England, I know he will get better, regardless of what external factors there are.
I love listening to his in depth commentary. He sometimes dives deeper than he should but other than that he’s been chill.
I was a broadcaster for 20-years. TV and radio. Tom is doing fine & will be very good in time.
I want to trash him, but honestly, he’s better than I thought he’d be.
Yes! He has gotten better each game I love listening to him now and he is STILL in his FIRST SEASON!
I recently watched the spanish commentary of the chiefs saints game and those commentators are brutally honest. They call out players organizations the nfl. Its wild
He is fine, but they need to let him unload on these fools. They don’t let him criticize the refs, and had him be vanilla af.
He has started throwing some amazing nuggets of knowledge here and there more and more.
yea ive been wondering if maybe hes limiting himself due to his anxiousness or desire to not mess up. that or network pressure. maybe in time itll work itself out and the real him will come through. or, this is just him.
Tom Brady throwing verbal checkdowns matches the rest of his career
He's been great. Brings a lot of energy. Won't stumble on his words as much with more experience
He been ok like he honestly have his good moments and it’s crazy that I notice week by week improvement…people forget Greg Olsen was calling games while still playing he would call a game on his bye weeks toward the end of his career and then he got hurt his last year and I remember him calling a few games so Greg had experience before doing it full time in 2021 also could re-watch himself before doing full time and Tom is literally improving week by week…Romo talks to much but obviously but you can tell he still watches a lot of film
2:34 hey that's an interesting and philosophical comment. and accurate. i may be going overboard reading into a simple comment, but i too use cosmological metaphors for describing elements of our mentally constructed world. it all fits. everything has a weight/mass, not just physically but conceptually in our minds. the higher the weight, the higher the meaning/gravity. the higher the meaning, the stronger the influence/pull it has on us. i don't hear many speak in those terms.
Romo wasn’t the best QB but he’s damn good at almost everything he tries: football, golf, basketball, speaking. Brady is a savant and a brand. I believe his personal brand and Fox’s interests are misaligned. He sells himself as a pretty generic dude and if Fox realizes that he needs to be polarizing to succeed, I’m not sure the Brady brand and Brady the announcer can coexist.
Romo was a very good QB… LMFAO you are remedial
Good take
People that think they are great have no room to improve. People that humble themselves have plenty of room to get better
I just watched your Derrick Henry video wondering where you were! I'm glad you put out a video today.
In my opinion, Tony Romo is the number one former player turned commentator
Edit: How tf did I forget about Troy Aikman 🤦🏽♂️?!? He has been so good for so long, he completely slipped my mind.
Aikman is so settled in now we've forgotten he's a HoFer lol
@@abhaybhatt4286 omg, you’re right! He completely slipped my mind. HOF commentator for sure.
Good to see you uploading again. Been missing your videos.
I like Brady as a commentator, I think he’s slowly getting more comfortable.
It's gonna take a year and review during the offseason for him to hit his stride, but one of my favorite things about Brady that I want to see more is when he doesn't sugar coat things. I.E. in that week 2 Saints vs Cowboys broadcast, him being asked "if he would keep throwing to a receiver that made a mistake (Jalen Brooks losing his footing and causing an interception)", then saying "No, can't trust him." instead of some sugar coated "well you know I'll still give him his chances we're a team and..." crap. I love the idea of getting the actual, legitimate thought process from him even if it does put players down.
Cuphead background music is an absolute banger as per usual
We got to get this guy to post more.
Love this channel
Just appreciate greatness you guys. This guy has won 7 SB RINGS. I mean, he knows what he's doing, try to listen to him as an ordinary commentator and everything's going to be fine.
Ive seen a couple games, hes ok
I think he is fine. I'm a Bills fan but I'm genuinely interested to hear what he says about a play considering his knowledge of the game. His voice isnt annoying or anything like that. Everyone around him seems supportive so I'm all good with this.
Technically, he has 5 first names since junior is also a first name.
It's really simple if he just follows these rules:
1. Be handsome
2. Be attractive
3. Don't be not handsome
5:13 I think that is the crux of why he feels so awkward in the booth. Being a Pats fan I have heard him speak plenty and he does say "umm" and "uh" and filler phrases like "you know?" A LOTTTT so when those are being purposefully eliminated from his vocabulary the silence that takes its place becomes very obvious.
In the two most recent, he has been super enjoyable to listen to imo
I LOVED the vid even tho I disagree with some of ur criticism.
4:28 i was in boston (from philly go birds dallas stinks) visiting a college friend for his bday in 2013 and we went to this game. it was october 2013. pats were down by a lot and around the 3rd quarter the place completely emptied due to the score and the boston red sox were in the alcs which was about to start soon. we stayed. drew brees vs. brady. a walk off td to k. thompkins as seen. to have watched brady do that was such a gift in life you can not buy.
Tom and I both have four first name, it’s a weird life
I'm by no means a Brady fan but i actually like him calling games. IMO you have to either have 1 of two types commentating - 1) super charismatic, fun, funny, or 2) knows what the hell they're talking about and able to give actually good analysis based on extensive experience. Sure he's a bit flat, but he checks that second one. When i'm watching a game i want things broken down, not dumbed down. i dont always know what's going on in terms of formations and intricacies. Again, as much as he annoys me he didnt get where he's at without being really good at teaching his team and breaking things down so people can process them
If his name wasn't Tom Brady and you just went off of his commentary. Most people would think he's was as bad as Jason Witten. That being said maybe in a year he will better.
Cmon that's a bit excessive. He's NOT Witten bad.
He's not even bad. He's OK and in fact pretty good in spots. He'll get better
@@mattl8774 He just comes off as very wooden and his chemistry with Kevin Burkhardt isn't there. But yes he will most likely get better. And I'm hoping he does because he seems to cover the Cowboys alot.
I appreciate how instead of just offering criticism he offers a solution. I completely agree that if you allow him to speak his mind a little more, things might go a little better.
everbody loved the clapback tom gave to baker and I think he will get better with more time in the booth. He is the GOAT for a reason
I say fair evaluations would be after a year, working in broadcast TV, you’ll see people make such a big evolution in their game from day one to year one
The $375 million number stuck with me in an odd way. Then it dawned on me, when Fox bought the rights to the NFC it was viewed as over paying since the AFC got about $375 million for a 5 year contract. I may have confused AFC with NFC but it does show how much the league has grown since the nineties.
Excellent analysis sir. Five stars.
As a colts fan who hated Brady as a player out of pure jealousy, he’s gonna be fantastic in the booth. No BS. I think he called the Ravens Cowboys game and it was great.
Doesn’t matter how good he is. He’s the best quarterback of all time. He’s gonna have good insight on everything. He could talk like Mike Tyson and people would still listen. Tyson himself has an audience when he talks even though some of its gibberish.
5:35 thats CTE kicking in😂
He never got touched 😂
@@glennbuhrryou must be young
I haven’t heard him in a full game yet but I think he should be on the giants game today so I’ll enjoy hearing how he talks about us when we sick and can’t whoop him
He’s actually pretty good. Better then most
Huge Brady hater throughout his NFL career and I agree tbh. Standards are low though, most of those guys are annoying as fuck.
Pretty good? Standards must be low, he's not horrible but he's definitely not good yet...
@@RealCGH it is going to take time to get experience but I do think he has been improving
The GOAT is back
Noti e how alot of critique this video displayed was from Bradys FIRST GAME, as he vastly improved in thr weeks after.
There’s a solid blend of all 4. Cowboys were in 3 of them though so it gets confusing.
He’s been really good imo and has continued to get comfortable and improving
watched him for the lions game and honestly liked him a lot more than some of the glazers that seem to commentate every other game like colinsworth n romo
I listen to him every week and i'm interested in his view on the games.. He knows more than anyone else behind the microphone.. People are upset about his salary,, Al Michaels said he thinks Brady will be one of the greatest..
Tom is developing into a very good and informative commentator. Tonight’s game Chiefs @ 49ers was his best so far. He was always going to succeed at this, his nature would allow nothing less. He is beginning to loosen up and relaxing into it now.
Ya he was solid in that game just shitting on Brock purdy who played like ass and glazing mahomes super hard
That piece of paper Tom whipped out is the single hardest moment I've laughed in 2024.
He started out a bit nervous but is improving every week.
So far I like it, but mainly because I'm like "Oh it's Tom Brady commentating. That's so cool." The newness of it is still there which gives him the benefit of the doubt, at least for me.
Brady's my favorite athlete of all time, and I went out of my way to watch his games this season. This video is pretty much dead on. He has gotten better though. His first game was rather awkward.
What's interesting is, if you watch him break down plays ANYWHERE out of the broadcasting booth, it's a goddam masterclass. He just needs to take that stuff into the booth.
I recently listened to his Let's Go podcast with Belichick and he was like "and I need to make it understandable for the people watching it"... meanwhile I'm going "NO! YOU'RE DOING THAT TOO MUCH!!!"
He does well enough for me to enjoy. Although, I am from New England.
The OG is back!
bro the "Hating" segway had me dead its so true lmaoooo
Im so happy i watch redzone so i bearly heard tom so far this year
He’s gotten much better week to week already. He’ll be great soon
Good take. I agree 100%
I can see him figuring it out, I'd be eager to hear his call of Chiefs-Niners in week 7.
I think he’s fine. Like other commenters have posted, it’s his first year. He’ll get better as he’s shown us since 1999.
Yes, he's good and he's also honest.. he's not going to freak out over EVERY LITTLE GAIN like others do.. and yet somehow that genuine spirit is taken for being "bad" at his job.
Definitely not biased here but I liked the part this past Sunday where he was glazing up my goats Kyler Murray and James Conner.
DUDE i cant even get past the first ten seconds of the video ITS TOO GOD DAMN FUNNY
From the games that I have heard he’s doing a great job so far
Tony Romo is a great announcer and an incredible student of the game. I like hearing him more than anyone else for some reason.
I live in new england so ive watched brady for his whole career!! It took him like 6-8 years to stop tossing blind throws when he was getting sacked!! Itll take him a while to get this down too!!🤷♂️🤷♂️😄😄 Ive got faith in him, if anyone can do it, its him!! Hes a preparation monster!! Hell get it!!😁😁💪💪
He's improved out of sight in a month.Dudes got it.
Dude is trying to hate so hard he called Greg Olsen "the single best color analyst working today" I think the push Tom has to reshape the best in all areas of the NFL to be cemented with a different category of greats and if he succeds then some unexpected opportunities will arise as promised.
Because he’s going to be a part owner of the Raiders, he won’t have as much access during production meetings. He also has other guidelines that he has to follow as an announcer
