Brees out at NBC

NGL, I was surprised by that aspect because when you saw him command the huddle and pregame speeches in NO, he had tons of charisma and a surprising amount of bravado.  I know that doesn't translate necessarily, but he was so flat on TV, it was a huge contrast.  It's definitely a different world, which is why they shouldn't be handing these jobs out without a proven amount of time and experience in doing it.  

Greg had been doing the spots for NFLN and Fox before he was even retired and even the longtime TV guys were going on about how good he is, and yet, Mr. Toupee here and Brady are raking in huge deals and displacing guys despite having no experience with it.  Imagine how Rodney Harrison (F him, by the way) feels.  He got ousted out of the studio for THAT, and now they fire him after one year.😂

 

Kevin Greene had the same issue.

Super charismatic guy in life. On TV though, just never looked comfortable.

Brees' football knowledge is top notch. I don't think anyone doubts that.

But to be a TV guy you need charisma too.

He was kinda lacking on that front.

As I think Brady will too.

as does Romo.

 Nope not even close. Maybe for you personally, but ratings have proven he’s the best.

 

If it wasn’t for Aikman’s knowledge and Collinworth’s stories they’d be trash too, and kind of are in a lot of ways.

 

Other than Romo…they are all kind of bad imo.

He just has zero personality on TV.  Being unlikeable might be better, because people would tune in to hate him.

True-ish but the entire tune in to hate on him thing only works for some people and others just avoid. It's not like he is Stern at his height at ABC, he was doing stuff every day that people wanted to complain about. If you hate Brees then what is the point of spending any time with him in your ear? I would watch him play to see if he got hit but there is no win if he is just talking. Too easy to mute.

    • Vegas is unfortunately fine, the LTIR pool isnt reflected in that when Pietelgrinos LTIR will more than cover it
    • 1, Sanders absolutely is going to blow up, period end of story.  I would bet just about anything on that.     2. Wallace looked completely lost at times and his instincts didnt look fluid.  Could he break out, sure but I think he is more of a player that gets marginally better season after season not just turn into a full blown stud in year 2.  IE Shaq T   3.  Mayes is who he is, a grinder that seems to handle whatever position he plays with functionality.  He will probably never be elite and he probably will never out right suck.  Just more consistent and decent/solid play.   remember he was straight cut after last years training camp so something was going on between him and the staff
    • I honestly do think we will land him, Ovi has maybe one more year, the caps are probably a board line wild card team. We have more money and weather or not he picks us we are a far better team than Washington.    If Elhers signs I think we should bump Jarvis to center. Elhers-Aho-Svechnikov Hall-Jarvis-Stankoven Carrier-Staal-Martinook  Robinson-Jankowski-Blake  Nadeu* (I think if he isnt used as a trade he will be displacing someone on the roster hes a top 6 talent)   Slavin-Chatfield Miller- Burns***? Nikishin-Walker   Although I think we over paid I've come around to the miller acquisition, if we can bring Burns back short term this us a lot of SIZE speed and Length in the D core, if there was anything painfully obvious about playing Florida it was that outside of Slavin/Nikishin/Burns the other 3 were getting out muscled and giving up the middle.    The roster above I believe can at a minimum take Florida 7 games.
