Since when is Tom Brady a seasoned TV announcer. They bumped the guy with actual experienced for the guy they paid way too much money for 

To be fair, Olsen started out that way. As do all former players. They're not putting Brady on the No. 6 team that's for sure.

The Panthers are doomed to have Kenny Albert and Jonathan Vilma in perpetuity.

Jonathan Vilma is by far my least favorite announcer. It's not only his antiPanthers bias that I can understand, it's that he clearly doesn't watch our team outside of  the game he is currently calling, he has Facebook level commentary

No they didn't. GOAT's make their own rules.

 

There is a standard Brady/Manning are the golden boys. Everybody else falls in line.

 

Same reason LeBron James got his son drafted when he's not a NBA level player. GOAT's eat first!

I mean, you definitely arent wrong in what you said. Those two dominate the world in football and basketball no denying Lebrons son should not have been drafted where he was. A part of me cheers for Bronny though since he probably isnt even ready for the NBA and may never be. Im hoping he gets it and his skills greatly increase where he can hang to prove everyone wrong for whatever reason.

Kenny Albert is a lot better when he’s calling a hockey game.  I’m not sure why but he’s not great for football.

Poor goof ball is probably still trying to escape being tied to his brother's name Marv who used to enjoy holding hookers hostage in closets while biting them.

With seasoned TV announcer Tom Brady joining the Fox football broadcast team, some expected changes were to be made

Brady will be the #1 team with Kevin Burkhardt, at least until Fox figures out that maybe they shouldn't have thrown together a stupid contract and wiggles out of it

Olsen will be paired with Joe Davis for the #2 team, making those games worth watching

Adam Amin and Mark Sanchez are the No. 3 team

Kenny Albert and Jon Vilma No. 4

Kevin Kugler and Daryl Johnston No. 5

Guessing that most of the Panthers games will likely be assigned to Chris Myers and Mark Schlereth No. 6 this season.

I'll take whatever is not Vilma... God he is an annoying prick

I think Brady is going to be wooden and not very good at all. 

Yeah, he seems like he has the personality of a 2x4. I just don't see how it's gonna translate to the broadcasting booth. I could see him doing some type of indepth analysis stuff on YouTube that football nerds like me would eat up, but that's something entirely different.

I thought he was going to be terrible when it was first announced, he just doesn't seem to be that type of guy in interviews during his playing career.

But have seen a few clips of him breaking stuff down recently and he sounded really good.

Apparently he actually took that year before starting up to go through a broadcasting bootcamp, he might surprise people with how good he can be.  With how he sees the game, if he can figure out the broadcasting side of it, he could be what Romo was that first year (but he kinda sucks now, it's weird)

Bronny will carve out a successful 10+ year NBA career.  He's not going to be Lebron and be a HOFer, but he's going to end up being an elite defensive player, think a Marcus Smart or Derrick White.

No, he wasn't an NBA ready prospect yet, and he really always was going to need a couple years of seasoning to be ready for the league.  But people forget that he couldn't train for 4+ months in the summer leading into his Freshman year, like at all.

He never stood a chance this past season, people judging him on it are just not willing to be objective and are hating on him because he only got drafted because of his dad.

Not every successful NBA player is an offensive juggernaut, he's going to make his money on the other end of the court and be very good at it.  His defensive instincts and overall bball IQ are off the charts good and all accounts are that Lebron's work ethic was picked up by both of his sons, that's a combo for success.

Bronny's NBA career will last exactly as long as the remainder of Lebron's.

    • I said this last night to family. You can look at Bryce as not a “strong and physical” presence and that’s not going to change on you can look at it, that this guy has the type of skillset that sets him up to only get better for the next 5-7 years every year. He’s not going to know less about the game next year than this year. His timing will be better, his pocket presence better (even though the guy works around a pocket amazingly in my opinion), everything is just going to improve every year and I believed he’s already proved the doubters wrong other than nut huggers on here who just want a big strong man to drool over.
    • The Seahawks won an emotional, divisional, overtime rivalry game vs the Rams on a Thursday night (Dec 18).  That gives them 10 days to prepare for the Panthers, but the Christmas holiday fell a week later--I bet they were afforded an extra day for travel-many coming back east.  Following the Panthers, Seattle plays at San Francisco for the division title (in all probability).   The Rams finish the season with games against the Falcons and Cardinals, two likely wins, pushing them to 13-4.  The Niners finish the season with home games against the Bears and Seahawks. Seattle finishes the season with the Panthers on the road and SF in California.   It is easy to see how preparing for the Panthers, during the holiday break and with the Niners waiting for them in SF a week later for (what could be) the NFC West title and #1 Seed in the NFC, could create the perfect trap game scenario.  The Panthers at home are 5-2.   In the past 2 weeks, the Seahawks struggled to beat the Phillip Rivers Colts in Seattle and then pulled off a miraculous, emotional victory at home vs. the Rams.  I am not convinced that they are as good as advertised. Seattle is a TD favorite in Charlotte.  I feel that Carolina by 3 may be more accurate.  While I am still not confident in this team's consistency and it never seems to dominate, it sure feels like a trap game for Seattle to me.  How could they NOT be thinking of San Francisco right now?  They are not used to being in this position (current players) and it is human nature.  Carolina 27, Seattle 24. 
    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.
