PFT: Brian Billick out at FOX

[mldardy]

Good he was horrible and seemed like he got his facts wrong and didn't know the rules of the game sometimes.

 

[SportsGuru80]

I'm glad he's gone... SEE YA! LMAO

 

[big dog cowboy]

Fox going for 18-34 crowd, Billick probably didnt appeal them because he was more analyst than entertainer.

This. As an analysis he is good. But he was horrible with names and I can see how that age group wouldn't connect with him.

 

[udas]

Yes now we can bring him in to play defensive end! Game changing signing, their loss is our gain!

 

[SoBlue128]

GoodBYE and wouldn't mind seeing Boomer axed from CBS as well.

Liked the analyst portion just don't need the sermons after being in church already lol

So that's why JJ never hired him. He's not good at keeping the fans entertained.

 

[khiladi]

People will respect the offensive genius of Billick. Who can forget the 333 points the Ravens scored in 2000?

Wait...

Nevermind.

I believe he was the OC with the Vikings when Moss was a rookie. That offense was ridiculous, though even I could call plays with that team. Hell, Jason Garrett could.

And nothing screams entertainment more than Chan Gailey and Dave Campo !

 

[noshame]

He was knowledgeable... but not interesting.

Well played...I agree.

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!

Let's not get CRAZY here!

While we are at it, get rid of Goose, Bradshaw and Buck. For the love of God, get rid of Buck. Please.Pleas.Please get rid of Buck.

What announcing teams are specifically geared for that demographic? Middle aged rockstars Troy and Joe? Phil Simms...Collinsworth? He was just paintfully bad as an analyst who offered nothing of depth to overlook his inability to speak coherently. Didn't help that he didn't seem to know the basic rules of the game at times and offered nothing of sustance.

 

[viman96]

I'm wondering if he tends to rub people the wrong way because he seems to be let go from every place he has been.

I read somewhere that Fox wants the appeal that TNT's NBA studio show has, with Barkley and company. Boy, if they could ever figure that out, that would be entertaining.

Barkley makes that show. Without Sir Charles, that show is nada. You can't remake a Barkley

 

[theSHOW]

I wasn't too big a fan. He was okay, but kept screwing up names.

I think he was out when he said Peyton Brady and Tom Manning were te best of the best

 

[Seven]

Thank goodness. Always felt like he was reading my order back at an Arby's drive thru............. following up with what I should have ordered.

He gone............
