Joe Buck only got his first gig due to nepotism. How he's managed to keep it is just beyond me. Although, thanks to David Croft now being on ESPN, he is no longer the absolute dirt worst commentator on American TV.
NFL
A place for NFL news, game highlights and everything that excites you about American Football.
I can’t stand them, but I am a NY Giants fan.
That doesn't mean they're the best.
Tirico and Gruden were the best of all time.
Joe Buck is one of the best.
goats idc . I luv their commentary
Buck is fine, Troy Aikman is trash, he needs to spend less time getting liquored up and more time reading the game notes.
22 years? Really? WOW I'm old
I don't think this is what tenured means
How sad. These two bums couldn’t hold a candle to Summerall and Madden.
Joe Buck is and always will be a west coast hater. Can’t wait for him to leave broadcasting.
Buck has gotten better over the years and Aikman has gotten worse.
I still respect Madden and Summerall more.
The amount of Joe Buck love makes me sick.
His monotone calls make golf announcers seem like they're on cocaine.
congrats please stay on as long as possible so I can hear less of collinsworth
we truly are in the darkest time-line
About as boring as Vanilla Ice Cream
I love the duo. And joe buck gets a lot of hate but honestly he’s so knowledgeable in many sports! Kinda the new mvp broadcasters. Al and cris were pretty great - sad they broke up
Buck hates the Vikings. I hate Buck.
It’s crazy the drop off announcers have. Romo was stellar and shit the bed. Olson is awful. Baby’s just doesn’t care anymore
Buck is the best commentator in all of sports and I look forward to him every week
I think buck and aikman are pretty solid actually. Yeah they have some moments but for the most part they’ve been good imo
best commentator duo in the game
This is my personal favourite duo to listen while watching a game. I can’t stand Collinsworth.
I'm getting old
I’m a fan of Mike Tirico. He has this thing called a personality. Buck could never.
“Mitchell… Mitchell… Mitchell”
They're so much better than the old ESPN crew. Man those other guys sucked bad. Those 3 guys would just never shut up while at the same time offering no commentary of value.
I love these two. You’d think I’d hate Aikman given he was Cowboys QB, but he never indicates it in his commentary. It’s probably partly due to the Cowboys continually underperforming every year since 1995 so he generally is disgusted with them lol
oh, FFS 🤦♂️
Madden is obviously GOAT
Collinsworth: now there’s two guys who who brought us the razzle dazzle for years
Joe Buck is great at everything he calls and has gotten better And better over the years. Aikman is a boring dummy that adds absolutely nothing to the broadcast
(Well actually) those first three years Collinsworth was also in the booth
Kevin Harlan et al is the best in the business, hands down. But I'd put these two as a close second.
Aikman is the best color commentator by far because he understands the very important rule of shutting the fuck up most of the time
The best call these guys ever did was the professionalism and authenticity they brought to the Damar Hamlin incident. They managed the situation well despite clearly being as spooked as everyone else watching.
Honestly for me, its either muted with them on, or watching the Spanish broadcast. Rather listen to things I don't understand then listen to them.
That’s pretty crazy cause they could do another 22 if they want to be as old as Pat and John.
And they’re awful.
I used to HATE Buck’s play-by-play, & he was always the worst commentator to me, until about the last 5-7 years or so, Buck’s really grown on me. I dunno if that’s him changing or me, but he does seem to have gotten much better the last few years & he’s actually pretty funny & likable in interviews away from the games.
Also the best team at the moment. Their chemistry is awesome.
And I’ll never understand why. Both of them fucking suck, beyond boring.
Yeah..but they suck so bad.
Right? I can’t stand Aikman. He doesn’t add anything, just points out the most obvious thing happening on the field and just sounds… dumb?
"They wrote me off and I didn't write back." - Joe Buck gentrifying the best quote of last season from Seattle QB, Geno Smith: https://youtu.be/3ehiH9Wv7S0?si=o7sZ92hryasFeMIs
People shit on Joe Buck for no reason. I think this is the best announcing crew in football
They should retire to celebrate.
