I'm gonna get flamed on this, but...

I actually don't think I'd at all enjoy someone saying "here comes a..." before every play.

He will do a great job now, but I hope he doesn't get choked in December/Jan.  

 

[SmokinwithWilly]

He'll do fine during the regular season, but he'll only get to call one playoff game before he's done. 

[Proudiddy]

LOL, then I won't be able to hear him because the Vikings game is one I'm going to.

Meanwhile, this second MNF game has two of the most boring commentators I've ever heard

Beth and Rex are absolutely terrible. Literally putting me to sleep.

OMG this is Rex Ryan?? Bahaha 

[cvlngnir]

That was impressive but I can see it getting really old pretty quickly. 

[GRWatcher]

It'll be pretty dull if he doesn't start telling us why he saw the play. He won't be announcing very long. I can see him coaching somewhere, maybe starting out as Quality Control or QB coach.

Tony Romo is a great announcer. Rex Ryan needs to go find a bunker and never ever come back ever

Why would he do that if gets paid more money to do less work being a broadcaster?

That's the truth!

Pretty cool/impressive, but as others have already stated, it could get old pretty quick. 

Although, it probably seemed more annoying watching the video montage than it actually would have seemed watching live.  A few times a game spread out wouldn't be too bad.

This is why the major networks like to get guys directly off the field into the booth. The further they get away from knowing what schematics are trending the more difficult it is to make predictions like this. It's why certain guys who clearly didn't put the work in to stay current fell off the face of the planet in terms of their analysis once systems hit their next evolution. Nobody in the league watches more film than dedicated QBs and I don't think anybody once questioned Romo's dedication to the game. With that said, when his information ages a bit it's going to be harder to make these kind of predictions and he'll have to rely upon broader knowledge of the game rather than read specific formations.
