The one I thought was interesting. He said they should do a Brady Sneak, & then looked at the formation & said something to the nature of no. They are gonna go in motion & run to the right side.
Then holy shit they were in motion & ran to the right side for the 1st down.

The thing is, I suspect many players and coordinators know what the Pats are going to do too, at this rate. They just can't stop it. The throw to Gronk wasn't hard to predict. It was just a beautiful throw and catch.

The core problem the Chiefs had is they could not stop the run in their base defense. Once the Pats see that, the game is basically over, because when you cheat to stop it they see what you are doing and crush it.

He was right all game and pretty much every time he announced any game. Dude reads the game and explains it and I applaud him for it. Wonder if he gets out of the booth and goes on the sidelines

Judging the Chiefs roster, the core issue is likely that the Chiefs base defense can't stop the pass so they ignore the run.

Glad more people are appreciating him calling games. He wasn't well-received initially and from some of those tweets, funny people try to hold his on-the-field play against him, as if that impedes his ability to dissect the game from a booth.

Also, one Cowboy is enough calling NFL games. The rest of them are awful and worthy of muting.

It would be silly to do so. As evidence by the existence of this thread, he's already attained "god" status in his current profession. He only has to "work" like 4 hours/week sitting in a temperature-controlled press box talking about football and can spend the rest of the week on the golf course and with his family. He'd probably get paid more in the booth than the sidelines too.

He makes $1.5 million per for CBS, just under $100K/game. He could make more as a HC, but he can sit in that booth for the next 25 years working 10 hours a week...

Yeah I am sure he is getting paid very well to be in the booth. You never know if he will get the itch to be back on the sidelines but you are right, it is pretty good gig he currently has

It is entertaining how detailed he can be on the play call... A lot of these guys that were in the league recently can predict like the simple calls... "Oh this will be a pass to the right"

That one call from the Pats/Cheifs Romo is like ok this guy is going this, then that guy will block and move.. then to the slant"

and its all pretty close to spot on.
