Harlan is play by play. Olsen and Brady are color analysts.

yeah I know, personally I just lump all announcers together and pretty much can't stand listening to most of them and just mute the TV. I will listen to Harlan and Greg though.

Over Romo? No. And none of them touch what Jon Gruden was. 

Romo used to be solid but has been incredibly annoying to me that last few years. Gruden was the best in the last 10-15 years that's for sure.

At his start Romo changed the game, but that was mainly due to him sitting in on meeting and breaking unwritten rules about the game plan. He dropped fast after that great start. After Greg's first year, he passed Romo for my taste. Greg was talking too much and nervous his first few games, but once he got with the flow, he is the best right now.

I liked prime Gruden too, he had 10 something years of great passion and he did reward my ears. I wish he would do it again, "they" have let him back in the machine. Maybe he will pick up a mic in the future, he's been on pods and still has "it".

Without any hate added in, I would say that Olsen is about two to three times better than Brady. Olsen came in as a natural. Brady seemed somewhat uncomfortable in the beginning, but has shown signs of improvement. Romo does a decent job as well. There's something about knowing the game, and, as a fan, I always appreciate ex-players-turned-announcers who not only know their position, but everyone's position.

Brady only got the job because of his accomplishments on the field ,Greg is much more charismatic and entertaining and just as knowledgeable 

I was hoping he would really be our coach, but Caneles is doing alright 

 

 

You beat me to it. Charisma. You can hear how much Greg LOVES football. He’s enjoyable to listen to. I could only imagine seeing him and Luke team up on a Fox crew. 

Brady was awful. Smug. 

Greg could be a devastating offensive coordinator if he chooses to get back to the field.

    • You're right. And he's been on the upswing, something that's been a long time coming. And over the last few years, we woulda been better with a Trent Dilfer out there considering everything.  But right now, we got a W following a W the week before. It has been a while since we've been there. And we're at .500. I know that's only a C grade right now, but man, after so many F grades in a row... it's kinda refreshing to be here. Is Bryce a long term answer here? He's still got a long way to go. Could he do it? Those three touchdown passes he made were bang on, high performance throws. And they finally game planned him pushing the ball down field. It was against a weak Dallas defense, but at least they were running a game based on attacking weaknesses of the defense rather than covering the weaknesses of our own team. Maybe both Canales and Young are maturing before our eyes.
    • No, he got beat at home by Michigan this year.  The other five wins are against Big Ten and Non-Power bottom feeders.  He's 0-7 vs ranked teams, and each year Nebraska has started strong and then faded in conference play.  Nebraska is 1-7 in two Novembers under Rhule.  This year their November slate is USC, @UCLA, @Penn State and Iowa.  Very possible they lose all of those games.  His tenure at Nebraska is looking very Baylor-esque.  And somehow he's still a front runner for the Penn State job.  Which would be ironic since they just ran a very Matt Rhule like (as far as can't beat any good teams) James Franklin out of town. 
    • GWDs vs... HOU: 15 - 13, no turnovers ATL: 9 - 7, no turnovers NO: 23 - 22, 1 interception NYG: 20 - 17, no turnovers ARI: 36 - 30, no turnovers @ATL: 44 - 38, no turnovers MIA: 27 - 24, 1 interception + 1 fumble DAL: 30 - 27, 1 interception (that was clearly TMac's fault) Which one of those games was Bryce clearly the reason that the team was behind aside from Miami?
