What do you think of the announcers in the NFL?

[Nanker]

Both Murph and Kim’s health issues played a part in last year’s season mosaic. Not to mention Damar’s trauma drama. 
 

It’s good to see that all three are on the mend and hopefully the team’s and community’s psyches are as well. 
 

GO BILLS!!!

McAfee's a decent guess.  He's already with Omaha Productions.

She also has a separate deal with Peyton Manning’s Omaha Productions for her podcast. Omaha and ESPN have a partnership agreement.

 

On Wednesday, Dan Le Batard said that Meadowlark had signed Kimes to continue to appear weekly.

Not sure I ever made the comment here, but I just want to offer up that Ross Tucker will find his way to a prime-time booth by next season. I've heard him on radio broadcasts and he is just terrific. Glad to see him getting a bigger shot this year.

Yeah, it seems his sole reason to be on that show is to #### on the Bills.  Whatevs.

 

We have Kyle Brandt and apparently Michael Robinson too.

I am glad football is back.
I am not glad I had to listen to Cris Collinsworth last night.

Kyle Brandt's basement  will not be returning.

I am not sure where to put this, but since it is Bills coverage I will slap it here and in the 2023 season thread.

A little bit of back-story: The News is now printed in Cleveland and trucked in each morning. The Rochester paper is now printed in New Jersey, so I can't help but think they are doing something like this with the Rochester paper, too.

Michael Irvin reaches settlement in Marriott lawsuit, returns to NFL Network today
The former Cowboys receiver sued the hotel chain for $100M after a female employee accused him of making lewd comments.

 

Former Cowboys wide receiver Michael Irvin reached a settlement with Marriott in his $100 million defamation lawsuit against the hotel chain, and he is expected to appear on NFL Network on Sunday morning for the first time since a woman accused him in February of making lewd comments in an Arizona hotel lobby, a person familiar with the situation told The Dallas Morning News.

NFL Media, the entity that manages NFL Network, lifted its indefinite suspension of Irvin. The Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee’s hiatus from the network lasted more than seven months, as Irvin last worked Opening Night for the Super Bowl on Feb. 6 in Phoenix.

Settlement terms between Irvin and Marriott were not disclosed. An NFL Media spokesperson could not be immediately reached for comment about Irvin’s status with the network.

We’ll, it’s a dirty job, but somebody’s got to do it. 
 

Actually, I think Mike Rowe would be a great announcer.
