Fox has slipped Thom Brennaman and Brian Billick into its No. 2 NFL booth this playoff weekend. They are replacing incumbents Kenny Albert, Daryl Johnston and Tony Siragusa, who have drawn playoff duty for years.
Brennaman and Billick will call Sunday’s playoff game between the Seattle Seahawks and Atlanta Falcons at noon. The network’s “A Team” Troy Aikman and Joe Buck have Saturday’s prime time affair between the Green Bay Packers andSan Francisco49ers.
Asked about the Sunday switch on a conference call this week, Fox Sports president Eric Shanks, who has been on the job two years, indicated his network is taking a new path. Fox rates Aikman and Buck on top with No. 2 up for grabs.
