Anyone hear Brenneman at the end of the game?

I have always liked Billick. Oddly enough, during his coaching tenure at Baltimore, his team was known for its amazing defense. Before landing that job, he was considered an offensive guru when he was with the Vikings as OC.

Yep, true stuff. Gruden was similar to Billick in that he was an offensive "guru" coaching a team that was known for their great defense year in and year out, but not really their offense. Both of those offensive coaches never produced a juggernaut offense for their respective teams during their tenure. I guess you have to chalk up most of the credit to Kiffin and Ryan.

Billick is great in the booth compared to FOX's usual crap.

I feel bad for Billick just because he has to deal with Brenneman. That guy is a straight up tard. Idk who all watched the Florida/Cincinnati game, but at one point Billick was explaining why teams have concerns about The Golden Calf of Bristol's QB abilities...I laughed so hard at this that I remember it almost verbatim:

Billick, "You can see on almost every throw he makes, that his throwing motion dips all the way down to his thigh, which will probably have to be completely reworked in the NFL."

Brennamen, "...why?"

Billick, "Well, think about it like this. Dan Marino was a hall-of-fame quarterback because he had one of the most efficient throwing motions of all time. He could get the ball out of his hands in an instant."

Brennamen, "So let me get this straight...you're comparing The Golden Calf of Bristol to a Hall-Of-Fame Quarterback! That is high praise."

Billick, "...."

Isn't it funny that former coaches and players come in and broadcast better than some of the guys who focus their career on that? Ofcourse, that can also be vice versa *cough* Rodney Harrison *cough*

I know he likes Moore, He only said it a billion times during the game.

seriously though. my god. as much as we were all already thinking it, he said it a dozen more times.

[Wither]

When he was talking to Billick about how great it had been for them to work together this year. And then he said "I wish you the best whether you go back into coaching or come back into the booth." And then there was kind of a pause and Brenneman said "sorry" then Billick said "no problem."

Am I reading too much into this? Made it sound like Brenneman and Billick knew that Billick was going back to the sideliens and that Brenneman let the cat out of the bag. I wonder if Billick has had talks with the Panthers at all.

I don't really remember the "sorry" part, or at least, not that short of an apology (might've had some more words in it - don't know).

But, what I did notice was that he said something about being back after that. Was he just covering that up? Who knows. I forget his words exactly, but he actually sounded a little convincing with whatever he said. He genuinely made it sound like he was going to be back in the booth (and like he wasn't going to enjoy it lol).

BB has won a superbowl with stellar defense, hard-nosed running, and a game manager QB.

Expect more of the same with the hopes the he has a better eye for talent.

not a bad fit really..if in fact it happened

As long as he gets out of commentating, I'm a happy man.
