Anyone else think Fouts was the worst he's ever been today?

[captain insano]

This is saying a lot considering how bad he's been over the years. He was way off base all game. Literally every time everytime he predicted a penalty, it would go on the opposite team. What is this guys IQ?


CBS, you solved your Simms problem and gave us Romo, now can you find a way to solve your Fouts problem?

fouts sucks ball.

I do not really care about the bias. I just want the focus to be on what is happening on the current drive. Replays of crucial penalties or questionable calls and some commentary on what the teams are trying to do both offensively and defensively. They were obviously confused about the TD being called back - perfect opportunity to bring in a former ref or have someone pull up the rule book to actually describe what went behind the call. Fans should not be required to pull up the rule book an hour later - that is what the commentators (or their support people if they are not familiar with the rule) are for.

Fouts: “You wonder if Tomlinson doesn’t tip the ball whether McCourty can intercept it. ”

Eagle: “Well the ball would have been turned over anyway.”

F: “But then they could have tried a 52 yard field goal.”

Narrator: “It was fourth down. They couldn’t.”

Possible bias aside, dude just didn't have an understanding of what was going on a LOT of the time. If we learn in a few years that he has Alzheimer's I'll be the opposite of surprised.

They sounded like two Jets fans sitting in their living room watching the game

 

[DaBronxPats14]

He definitely was trying his best to set a narrative for more controversy for all mediots* to run with. Funny thing about about that TD reversal is they went to NY to overturn it.

Come to the 413 and talk **** on the Corolla, you won't

Lmao point taken.

 

[reflexblue]

Hes doing more pats games and one good thing is they win most of the time and he has to watch it. It must make him crazy.

One of the greatest Ducks players of all time. Perhaps only Mariota was better at QB.

Even as a total Ducks Homer, I can't stand the guy as an announcer. Brutal.

They were confused about everything

I don't like to complain about announcers but this deserves it. Would rather build a house out of pizza dough than endure another second of the drivel.

I'm...I'm curious how that became an either/or situation for you.

Apparently calling someone a blind senile blathering old mentally challenged fool, in a angry tone, while waving the remote at the TV is frowned upon in the Pazrul household. My wife told me to simmer down it's just a game several times after fouts would not shut up about the correctly called ****ty rule.

Fouts has been so bad the last few seasons, I miss Dan Dierdorf...

At least Dierdorf was predictable. Every player was the greatest player ever to play in the history of ever. It was annoying, but it wasn't malicious.

It's too bad Eagle's being "wasted" with Fouts

 

[Nikolai]

He sounds like he's well oiled with scotch.

I'm not judging the choice to get liquored up...hell, I do it for most games, but then, I don't think even I would be as bad as he is
at announcing.

The former Voice of the New York Jets can **** right off along with Fouts. He just eggs that senile old man on.

 

[Love The Drake]

Why can't Deon Sanders and Rex Ryan do a game that would be entertainment.

Whoa, that's a strong statement.
