Hes gotta tone the injury **** and prognostication down though - where a simple "that doesn't look good lets hope for the best" will suffice...he should let it. I
I guess. But its a football game, there's plenty on the field to talk about, and it was like he was trying to fill the vacuum of drama based on the result of the game with other drama, and in a very 2017 America "BIGGEST INJURY IN HISTORY - MAYBE" kind of way that wasn't skilled or nuanced at all so IMO I felt like his lowest points - like saying "muddle huddle" 71 times - took away from what was otherwise frequently interesting commentary.To be fair he was prompted by a question from the announcer, and he does have a long history of back injuries. As a game analyst he's not being paid to say 'I can't tell from here, but I'm sure Bill Belichick will give us a detailed explanation after the game'.
Honestly I don't mind Tony Romo on the commentary, he is pretty good.
Agreed, I thought he was pretty good. He made one of the better points that I've heard from a color analyst towards the end of game when he said Belichick blitzed on the Saints final TD to hide tendencies when teams run analytics to prep for the Pats.
