CBS Broadcast: Announcers Ian Eagle and Dan Fouts

[viman96]

Cowboys game today is on CBS which I never like. The sound always seems to be low and the broadcasts tend to be boring. Today's broadcasters are Ian Eagle and Dan Fouts. Is this their #1 team?

No, their #1 team is Phil Simms and Jim Nantz; however, I prefer not having Simms do the broadcast. Listening is less entertaining than watching paint dry.

Nice that I don't have to stream this.

 

[Vanilla2]

Dan Fouts is an idiot

 

[iceberg]

They are more boring than drying mud.

Loved watching Fouts play... Listening to him call a game is another story

 

[Eric_Boyer]

Fouts needs to learn the modern game. he doesn't know the rules anymore. If he isn't going to do his homework, go away

 

[speedkilz88]

Does CBS have any good announcers?

Dan Fouts is an idiot

He's horrible

 

[mldardy]

Dan Fouts is an idiot

He is. I like Eagle but Fouts is pretty clueless.

 

[CowboyStar88]

God he was so bad.

 

[gdogg24]

Was it me or was Fouts all but booing the Cowboys?

 

[pancakeman]

Yup. We're fortunate that the Cowboys are in the NFC.

 

[Nova]

CBS broadcast is terrible, partially because they are so unfamiliar with the cowboys.

Cowher called Smith, "Tyrone". He called Leary "The Free Agent".

The girl at halftime asked Bill O'Brien a question that clearly was meant for Garrett.

But really, they're broadcast is just unattractive and boring...feels very removed from the game.

These announcers are idiots. Once again Dez gets an illegal contact and no call. They don't even bother stating that fact. Now when they Martin with not even a hold on Watt they gush all over it like a crime has been committed. Once again, they are idiots.

 

[theogt]

They actually said at the beginning of the game that JJ Watts was the leading MVP candidate. Yikes.

That was probably the most biased commentating I've ever seen from a national network.

Their sideline reporter being the notable exception.

Their sideline reporter being the notable exception.

Well I won't argue that

 

[JustDezIt]

it was hard to listen to. did they even mention mcclain going out and being the reason they were able to run up the middle? the cameraman was tryin to get them to but i never heard it

Greg Gumbel is pretty good.
