Texas OL destroying Michigan front that has projected top DT Brandon Graham and another mid first round DT Kenneth Grant

Texas has 4 guys who will play in NFL as OL and LT Banks who’s pushing these two all over is single digit round one

He is a freaking beast - Patriots just gotta keep maye safe and secure and can redo their entire line with one of these OT and come back round 2 at C where there are a handful of excellent centers many who played G before so they got flexibility but legit center skill

Kelvin Banks was pretty good today.

Tom Brady is going to be a great announcer as soon as his voice changes

Marvin Harrison had a HUGE day

Beasley Reece > Tom Brady

Wayne Gretzky, Tom Brady.

Don’t try to stay relevant on TV

 

[BMC]

Tom Brady is simply too bland to do color commentary. His personality doesn't fit that role.

Carrie Underwood crushes the Sunday Night Football intro. I like that it was mostly her and highlights of the teams playing rather than showing players who aren’t on either team playing.

Collinsworth seems like he's losing it a bit

Not sure what Olsen's contract is but all the networks should try to grab him as lead guy

Give me a Lions-Rams NFC title game. These teams play entertaining games.

It's still early, but Jerod Mayo seems to have these Patriots buying in and other final thoughts

The Patriots pulled off a shocking upset Thursday night, a sign that the team is buying into new coach Jerod Mayo's approach

I think with Brady there are also a couple of other things that will impact his chances for success.

His voice is his voice. Of the 4 lead guys on the major networks, Aikman, Romo, Brady/Collingsworth in that order for voice.

Next, he's being too PC. Straggling the fence too much. I think that's a problem that may not improve as he is granted the right to purchase a stake in the Raiders and as an owner, despite, being in his role as a color guy, isn't going to sit well with other owners to be critical of a player the way Aikman, Romo, Collingsworth, etc can as they have no stake in teams. So, I don't see him being as critical as he should/would be otherwise.

Was Pitt/ATL really the 2nd best game Fox had? I do think Olsen will get picked up by NBC/amazon to take over for Herbstreit potentially. In terms of high end QBs, I don't think we will see Rodgers in the booth. After him, there's really not another one. Don't think a network goes with Big Ben with his past. Eli/Peyton prefer doing the Manningcast and other things. Before his drop off, I didn't think Russ would be good on TV. Brees, was meh..... Cam is better off doing his own thing in his own style, vs going corporate. That that's it for big name QBs that are retired or nearing retirement.

So, there's a massive gap from the high end QBs to the current crop that are a decade away from retirement. So, 2025/2026 is the time for other color guys to lay their claim on the non CBS/Fox/ESPN spot at NBC/Amazon or another network.

The Manning brothers and Belichick just constantly talking over each other because of the delay

Why is Belichick's tv mounted over his head? He's looking up like he's looking for UFOs in space.

Fins' Hill calls for 'escalating' officer to be fired

Tyreek Hill, through a statement from his attorney, is calling for the police officer that pulled him out of his vehicle and kneeled on his back to be fired.

Just my opinion of course but I can do without Tyreek Hill of all people asking for someone else to be fired. Maybe NFL teams should have "fired" him for his previous incidents.

No one should have to roll down their window for officers for minor traffic violations. Put your license and reg up to the window and they can put the ticket on the wiper.
