NFL announcers - who's the best and who is terrible...

[SmokeALib]

Best - Tony Romo
Garbage - Joe Buck

What you guys think?

Joe Buck makes me cringe. Absolutely worthless.
Whereas Romo is calling plays before they happen. The best out there.

 

[Remodeling Maidiac]

Best - Madden
Worst- Everyone else

Any black on espn it’s like they hire Ebonics teachers

 

[LA RAM FAN]

Best - Madden
Worst- Everyone else

yeah I miss those good old days of tuning in to watch the Los Angeles Rams or the 49er games that was i was big fan of as well cause of joe montana then later steve young,those games would not have been anywhere near as enjoyable as they were back in those days without John Madden and Pat Summeral. Best broadcast combo in NFL history.

one more example how the NFL has really gone downhill since then. the ones they have now just dont have what they had.

Spot on. I also like Kevin Harlan and don’t kill me for this - Chris Collinsworth.

Romo is great at that. Collinsworth does that too. Chucky used to do that all the time.

Kurt Warner is pretty bad, but Booger is bad as well. Aikman is usually bad, but has some good moments

Certainly Summerall and Madden bring back warm fuzzies for those of us that grew up in the 70's and 80's. I still replay their call of the final drive of the Patriots first Superbowl win in 2002 once in a while because it makes me smile.

But I think Romo, Aikman, and Simms do a good job on the announcing front. It's not all bad.
