Worst group out there - and it's not even close.

Gumbel can't get names, teams, anything right. Looking forward to the Rick Romo interview.

Collinsworth - Doesn't know what a PI is. Genius, he had his hands on him too.

Euthanize these guys.
 
Overall, the whole thing was poorly done. I liked the Pre Game though.
 
It was ridiculous re the pass interference. I mean for God's sake, at the very worst it was illegal contact.
 
They have the best studio crew in the business, but their announcing crew is about the worst. Why not just put the studio crew in the booth? Eisen could do play by play just fine and Mooch and Deion would be fine as color guys.

Exactly.

The DB had his hands on his shoulder before he "kneed" him. It was fairly obvious.

Exactly!
 
Sorry guys, but I am not nearly as down on CC as some of you....Gumble is a flat out fool and a terrible play caller!!
 
i thought mr. bryant jumbles did a fantastic job.

giving the preview about the interview with ric romo at the end of the game

also the recap of the score--cowboys 37 packers 27, cowboys win by 7.


and during the pregram he gave us the lead in about the packers coming out from the tunnel (i don't understand why the packers paid tribute to us wearing our throw backs and coming out through the cowboys tunnel).

I'd be down with this. The only problem is, doing a two hour pre game show and a 2 and a half hour game is a little much. I guess they could put Wilcots, Adam Shafuer (sp), and Dukes in the pre game show.

Anything would be better than what we had in the booth tonight.

I muted it and synched up Brad Sham and Babe on the Sirius.

Reading these comments, I'm glad I did.

Please allow me to inject them?
 
3rd and short, Cowboys ball.....Barber rumbles for 16 yards....

Gumble: "Barber may have the first down on that run.":eek::
 
They could stick a mannequin in the booth and would be more interesting than Gumbel and would get more facts right.
 
Other that the PI call, i did not mind CC that much. I finally found someone worse that tony kornheiser. He was god awful ever since the cowboys ran out of the helmet. Gumble "And here come the pack". He couldnt get teams right the whole night. He sad that a hold was on pat mquistan when it was on pat watkins. Was mcquistan even active tonight. I really really am disappointed in NFLN. I love the station and the booth guys but gumble is a total beating. If it hadnt been for tivo and me pausing and replaying the game as i please, i would have been listening to the greatest cowboy announcers there are. Brad sham and Babe laufenberg on the ticket, i love those guys
