Yeah, but he's also 33 now coming off breaking his foot twice. You're right that overall, he looks like he could play another 5 years, but if the feet don't hold up then it's over. By his own admission he'll need another surgery at the end of the season which means he's literally playing with a broken foot.

With that said, I think he'll come out and play well this Sunday. I just don't think we can realistically expect him to last the entire rest of the season. It's just too fragile a situation, one wrong step and it's over.

Jeeze... is he really 30 fuging 3 now?  Ugh.  Crazy how the time flies.

I formly believe he has a solid 2-3 years left in him physically to perform. It’s the broadcasting career more than anything that I think will deter him from returning to play.

Agree. If he’s uses his head (against my fandom) he’s out this year and moves on to broadcast work. 

It almost feels like his time on tv,  recently  (Cowerd in particular) and in the past, was a bit of a broadcast resume builder.  “On the job” trial run.  

I’ll gladly watch him perform on the field or in the booth.

I keep reading this but is he really that great from a personality perspective,

like what makes everyone so sure he’s going to be great in the booth?

I must be missing something. He just seems like a knowledgeable well spoken dude. seems like a dime a dozen.

Nah you’re not missing something imo. 

I agree, he is a dime a dozen as far as well spoken and decent insight. The broadcast booth is like any other job, many are clamoring and only a few get the nod. He’s proven in finding ways to make things happen on the field and strikes me as the same guy that will take advantage of any opportunity. 

He’s  not the best I’ve heard but if you give him a crack he will take advantage, I believe ... and you can see he’s been given some opportunities.
