I honestly think Tony Romo is probably the best former player calling games right now.
Btw, who were the ones for the game yesterday? As a woman, I appreciate it when women are out there doing the jobs usually reserved for men only...but as a Vikings fan yesterday afternoon I felt like I was listening to a women’s college basketball game.
As a followup to that comment, I will add that I would have much preferred Pam Oliver if they wanted to bring more legitimacy to having a woman upstairs commentating (jmo with a shrug).

....and one of his lackeys, Jonathan Vilma, now calls games for Fox. I wanted to club that shithole dead last week during the Carolina game...
I can't stand listening to him. He adds nothing to the commentary and he is a POS. He is annoying as hell. I don't know how he gets a pass.
you literally just described about 90% of the announcers in the game.
Its like his reason for being is to make f...en Joe Buck look good.

I think it was Beth Mowins, who I dont enjoy at all. Love Doris Burke during basketball games but I've heard too many games call by Beth. Still better than the POS hypocrite Vilma and idiots like Booger.
Romo is the man, love his knowledge and upbeat personality on games. He, like every announcer, has had some bad moments (Dak injury). Overall, I would argue he's the best in the pros....best overall is Gus Johnson, love that dude.

I enjoy listening to Romo. Beth Mowins was on our game. I like listening to her. She is smart. Feeley was taking up space, at times it was like she was working but herself. She usually does college games. There are so many commentators that do the fake buddy act or say some random shit and I am like how is that relevant? Hope she gets more opportunities. I love Pam Oliver as well as Michele Tafoya.
Hopefully at some point in his life he got his junk stuck in his zipper. If not, I'm looking forward to that happening to him. Fricken d-bag.

Mowins has grown a lot. When she was doing college games she was close to unbearable. I cringed when I saw it was her at first yesterday, but I will give credit she is a lot better.

That's just it. You have to start somewhere and you only get better with the opportunity. Remember Booger McFarland? He didn't get better but he got the opportunity. Freaking Sean McDonough got a pass for a long time. There are plenty of examples of people that shouldn't be out there that are. They moved on from McDonough and McFarland thankfully but my ears bled from them. I find Griese and Tirico annoying.

Good to hear it wasn't just me. Watched the highlights and turned off the sound quickly. Was just so dull. I get that this wasn't the premiere game this weekend, but can't they find someone with a pulse. I agree that Pam Oliver would be a good start.
I watched that desperation throw from Carr with 5 seconds remaining and 4th down and down 5. Williams decided to send a blitz and have one-one coverage down the sideline with no safety over the top???? WTF
