He let the game flow but let out a “Whoa Nellie” when needed. Announcers now try to show how smart they are with stats and figures. They spend rest of time calling replays and what happened even though we just saw the play.

Sean McDonough is very good. It should be him. Not Fowler.** -- Maroon Baboon Jan 09, 2026 at 06:16 PM ET

Scully is the GOAT, what a voice. Jackson is a close second IMO -- HokieNeal Jan 09, 2026 at 03:51 PM ET

He stopped calling the NFL after that game. He said it was the perfect time -- reestuart Jan 09, 2026 at 03:38 PM ET
