Did any one notice Collinsworth talking about how great Dak is?

[Pokes12]

WTH,All night long, inChris Collingsworth was talking about how great Dak is and how he is total control., did Dak’s agent pay him to say that? It sounded so delusional and patronizing at the same town.

Have you watched and listened to Cris Collinsworth during other games? NBC Sports pays him to ramble out of the opposite end of his digestive tract about a LOT of players and coaches. And for a long time. Last night's blah binge is not an exception for him.

All broadcasters have to "talk up" everyone. They are rarely going to be anything more than mildly critical of anyone.

Well...

All color analysts do not talk up their subjects the same way. Take Cris Collinsworth's main peers at CBS (Tony Romo), ESPN (Troy Aikman), Fox (Tom Brady), and Prime Video (Kirk Herbstreit).

Romo will say something glib about someone, but will not usually carry it over a down or two. Aikman's comments are usually dry, tactful and brief. So far, Brady has been somewhat longwinded but tries to tie things to his personal NFL experiences. In my opinion, Herbstreit may be the best of the sidekicks with playful banner that does not drone on (although he does talk up Al Michaels too much at times).

Collinsworth? He bites down on that hook and runs with it. There are times when he is talking about someone going into commercial and picks back up after the break for another couple of downs. And he does it with that 'my sense of humor is as funny as it was in college' tint in his running commentary. And he will often dip into a morphed Woody Boyd/Cheers folksy routine too.

I could be wrong, but I believe that is essentially what the OP was emphasizing about Collinsworth.

Daks good at his job. But needs support.

 

[ShiningStar]

hes told what to say ok. its about the sport and to get fans involved, its not about what the teams are about. most of the fans have zero clue. hes 1 step above saying PURPLE TEAM THROWS understand who his audience is, its not the hard core fan.

Watch any game, this is how they talk about everyone. They typically talk up whomever makes a play rather than talk down about those who failed to make the play because fans want to see greatness.
