Jon Gruden-MNF

[Avaj]

What is your opinion of him as analyst?? I know they extended his contract recently.

At first I didn't care for the man and I thought oh lovely why is he calling games. Now I really enjoy him. I wish they we get rid of the other two and find someone more compatible with Jon. You can tell he has a real passion for this game.

Thoughts?

I like him except for his penchant for always saying "He's a FOOTBALL player!!"

 

[Tusan_Homichi]

I think he's really good.

Modern day Madden..

Unlike their last analyst, Tony Kornheiser, Gruden had actually watched a football game in his life before heading into the booth. So overall I approve.

 

[MarionBarberThe4th]

He and Jaws can actually talk to each other, instead of individual monologues right before each snap

 

[HoosierCowboy]

I really like him and do think he could call the game by himself

 

[Temo]

Could do without him. Collinsworth is the best analyst right now.

 

[WarC]

always love it when a coach does commentary. they occasionally say insightful things or throw out some info about particular players or other coaches. its a nice addition.

 

[DFWJC]

I like him and he is growing into the job.

I think he is doing a great job. Some of you made a great point about chemistry. There are some really solid teams doing NFL games like Aikman and Buck, but there are some really bad broadcast teams as well.

Could do without him. Collinsworth is the best analyst right now.

LOL

Collinsworth is the worst announcer in not only sports, but TV history.

You obviously weren't around to hear Bryant Gumbel. He was the worst of the worst in any kind of anchor or announcing.

 

[Direwolf63]

Gruden is pretty good, although his praise for players goed over the top at times.

Bryant Gumbal:

Collinsworth is good. But the best in the business IMO is Moose.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

Gruden is okay -- he's obviously light years better than Kornheiser -- but the more I hear him, the more every game sounds the same. Each game has several "OUT-STANDING!" players, with several players on each team who are as "as good as anybody in the NFL".

That man is a FOOTBALL ANALYST!
