Around the NFL … week 4

[sdskinsfan2001]

T.J. Watt swept the leg. Refs picked up the flag. Refs don't know what to do when both teams are NFL royalty.

People who like tony romo as an commentator…I just don’t get it. He is knowledgeable but his goofy side comments are half cringe half,eye roll…he really thinks he is a funny guy. He really is just annoying af.

Agreed. He is not entertaining at all and honestly his knowledge gets way too x and o for the casual fans.

It's hard to be a good color commentator. The play-by-play guys go to school for this and gain experience in lesser games before getting the big gigs. The Analyst/Color-Commentator is knowledgeable about football and that's their focus, not always great about the subtle parts of being a great announcer. I think Romo does a pretty damn good job. And I like his Corona commercials as a possible tie breaker.

Raplesburger is done. He is missing so many throws.

[sdskinsfan2001]

Cardinals are beating the shit out of the Rams, on the road.

Thought that was the best game of the week. NFL is a crazy beast.

Omg Harbaugh that is so embarrassing. Nobody gives a shit about your streak. That is awful.

He is actually great in commercials but for some reason that humor doesn’t translate when he is commentating.

This is just my guessing. But there is a lot of live time and the color guys aren't comfortable with silent time when they think it's their time to talk. So they find filler, and a lot of the filler is not good.

Even play by play guys often talk too much. As fans, we don't need words every second of every second of live air time. A little silence is perfectly fine. More is not necessarily better.

Rodney Harrison is a douchebag, Tirico, Brees and Dungy hold their own umbrella while Harrison has someone holding his.

Yeah it is obviously different than commercials and i was thinking exactly what you said about just so much down time but than ya just got change your timing or something. Maybe give the double bird like Eli when the camera is on ya?

Eli is great. Him and Peyton are just awkwardly hilarious. Good for them. They need to make more millions and millions post NFL-career. Bastards.

The F was Belichick thinking kicking that 56 yarder under the rain with 55 sec left ? Even if he makes it, when has giving the ball back to TB with nearly a minute and 2 time outs been a good idea ?
