Kevin Harland should be CBS #1 announcer

[frozenchief]

This game just hi-lighted how good Harlan is as a commentator. I have no idea why Nantz is their #1. I think Green is a dependable color commentator but admit Romo is a better analyst. I think Harlan and Romo should be CBS #1 team.

Harlan describes the game better. He’s better pointing out which player did what. He is more emotionally invested in the game without being a Homer for either team. Nantz seems to have the personality of wet cardboard. Also, he seems to root for whoever is playing KC, although that could be me.

The downside to KC’s quality play is us getting Nantz and Romo. As frustrating as this game was, at least Harlan was in the booth and not Nantz.

Both of you are incorrect, though technically he does also have a place in Nashville (he's not a Titans fan).

His primary residence is by Pebble Beach in California. He has a replica golf hole in his back yard that he's pretty infamous for having.

The sideline reporter is a stunner! Can't remember her name though.

I've also read recently that his primary residence in now Nashville, not PB. He may still have the Pebble Beach home, but sounds like his wife wanted a more normal area for their kids to grow up in. Doubt he's a Titan fan though, probably a NYC or Jets fan, as he grew up in that general area.

Yeah, I edited because he does have a place in Nashville, so I was wrong to say that he was wrong.

I watch a lot of his golf broadcasts, he spends way more time in the PB home (so he often says) than he does in Nashville. But I'm guessing you're correct as to why they also have a place in Nashville.

Imagine how awful announcing is gonna be when it is all Tom Brady all the time. He has already announced he's gonna be extra critical of QBs cause he has such a high standard for QB play and won't abide seeing it slip.

It's gonna be a circle of hell having to listen to him critique Mahomes all game.

**** Tom Brady.

Harlan does the Westwood 1 NFL broadcasts for radio. Surprised he has time for tv. The radio broadcast of the Bills-Fins game had a guy with a speech impediment/heavy accent. It was infuriating

[Zap Rowsdower]

Harlan is the best out there imo but Nantz is also high quality. Surprised Fox didn't try to get Harlan for the #1 spot after Buck left for ESPN.

Harlan>Ian Eagle>Nantz

All good, but that's how I rank 'em

[Mama Hip Rockets]

Yes.

[redfan]

Nantz's voice is best suited for golf, or something similarly mellow. Bowling, or pocket billiards perhaps?

Actually, the foul was on Sneed but Harlan said it was number 38, and then called the name of the rookie on the Texans. He glanced at the wrong sheet in front of him I am sure but yes, that one stuck out to me.

Dont get the hate on Nantz. I think hes great but yes Harlan the best.

I would argue that Romo does that better than any analyst in the game right now. Not sure it is close either, he sees a ton out there that many don't.
