Default Theismann to work NFL Network's Thursday game w/ Bob Papa and Matt Millen

KILL ME!

The NFL Network has hired Joe Theismann to work its Thursday night game along with Bob Papa and Matt Millen.

???

Who makes these decisions?

lets add Dennis Miller for some color commentary too.....and put Goose on the sidelines with a "Bobby Brown" mic to round out the worst team in broadcast history...

Unfortunately, this might be the best broadcast team that the NFL Network has ever had. In fairness to Millen, he is a decent color commentator even if he was a train wreck of a GM.

Millen is DYNAMITE as a color guy. It's hard to think that though because everyone - rightfully so - busts on him for his GM skills with DET.

If you watch college football, the best PXP/Color combo is Sean McDonough and Matt Millen. Usually a sat afternoon 330 game on ABC. Think they get FSU and Oklahoma this saturday.

Papa is a know it all so getting someone in there who's played the game before will help bring him back to reality and hopefully shut his mouth. Like someone said before this is probably the best cast they've put on in the past few years, sadly enough.

i would have them improve their production/broadcast quality first and the booth next.i can mute them at least but the nfln broadcast games are poorly produced.

I can't believe this guy is working something more than HS football. He's TERRIBLE.

I'd rather listen to Theismann than Millen, whom I've despised for a quarter-century and in his 2nd go-round in the booth is now merely a caricature of a bumbling, unfunny, loud jock.

I'd much rather listen to Matt Millen than Bob Papa, but that's just my personal opinion.
