Football Night in America Lineup update

[PanthersATL]

NBC has announced some changes on Football Night in America. Mike Tirico remains as studio host. Maria Taylor will join him as a co-host. Drew Brees joins the show as well. Tirico, Tony Dungy and Brees will be the main studio team. Taylor will be teamed with Chris Simms.

Brees?  Dunno if that'll be worthwhile to listen to. seems like everybody is scrambling (!) to get a former QB on the air to do color, when who you really want is someone like Olsen who knows what he's talking about AND is good at it

Honestly anybody has to be better than Rodney Harrison. 

[La Pantera]

Brees appeared in the game last night, for a moment. He honestly came across as dull and boring af.

That's great. I pay $5 a month for NFL Primetime. fug NBC.

[TylerDurden]

Wow, so Maria Taylor did leave ESPN?  They fired Rachel Nichols and lost Taylor, too? lol. 

I could see Brees being good at the gig as well.

I'm surprised.....

 

 

 

 

Surprised anyone expected him to be anything but boring.

[CRA]

He isn't bad at it, but I am about tired of Tony Dungy.  

*and yeah, Brees sucks in that role. 

[Wes21]

They had to settle for Brees when Jimmy Clausen turned them down.

But the truth is he tried to call them back to accept the job, but the call got intercepted.

and Pat McAfee still hasn't been hired. They wonder why Barstool is beating their asses these days.

Yeah but he had to tackle Moose in the Super Bowl with a broken arm.  
 

That still makes me smile.

Technically, McAfee has a job.

(and he's well suited to it)

I remember the radio station asking Jake Delhomme what he said to Harrison in the Super Bowl.

Jake's response was "I think I asked him how his mother was doing"

That clip of Jake giving him the business always shows up in montages.
