Olsen very good in the booth

I think Olsen is tearing it up. He’ll probably improve technically, get slicker and more polished, but he is fresh and hitting it hard.

His game within the game stuff is the best thing going now. The route explanations and how things set up strategy or play design are better than I remember seeing for a while. 
I hope he doesn’t become irritating once the freshness wears off. I am almost there with Romo. He was fresh at first by a lot, now it’s meh.

Romo seems to have gotten full of himself and lazy.  Greg is very smart, seems to be a hard worker, and a fairly humble guy.  Don't think he will quit taking this seriously.  He seems very professional.

Looks like we're getting another year of Greg in the #1 announcer slot?

Good.
 

 

Brady is intimidated by  Olsen's competence. He is taking the year to practice. Would not surprise me if he decides to take another roll in 2024.

(I’m) going to take some time to really learn, become great at what I want to do … making sure I don’t rush into anything.”

He told “The Herd” that he plans to watch Fox’s lead broadcast team of Greg Olsen and Kevin Burkhardt call Sunday’s Super Bowl.

“I’ll be watching 50 percent watching the game and 50 percent listening to those two and hearing the amazing job they’re going to do along with the whole Fox Sports crew,” Brady said.

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
