I don't think I've ever heard better local play-by-play and color announcers than the Phoenix team last night ... did anybody notice these guys? The first half of the NFL Network telecast?

Best "valuable info"/"per word spoken" ratio I've ever heard. Every single tackler was tagged with 1 - his college, 2- years in pros, and 3- former NFL teams. Even every Bronco. In fact, these two guys had better BRONCOS info than Gary Miller and Reggie Rivers, and they're not bad.

Several things I found out about the BRONCOS from the PHOENIX TV guys in that first half alone include that Elvis set an all-time NCAA record with 10 forced fumbles (I know I'll get argument here, but if you're gonna aruge, gimme an OM link) ... and that Chad Mustard practiced some and is available at OT. Maybe you guys knew that Cutler's pass to beat Tennessee last year was the last pass he threw, but I hadn't heard it put that way.

There was more I can't remember now, but I was amazed at those guys.

Don Criqui and many others should do HALF that much preparation.

All I remember is that "IF you stack 8 in the box against them, James and JJ Arrington are gonna hurt you." Which I found hilarious, who was their last 1k yard rusher?

I wonder If I got different announcers though since I got the local feed. I thought they guys last night were hilarious homers. Lots of Rah Rah stuff.

They must of been better than the Detroit announcers. All they knew was about the Lions players, didnt know or say jack shiat about the Bronco players. One moron kept saying, and tackled by Foxworthy ! Dumbazz.

I hate that leech Bidwell. He deserves a gravel yard and a blathering moron in the booth like Joe Heisman. Arizona people are good folks.

The Card’s announcers were O.K., they delivered some good information but were also biased like crazy.

Nothing is worse than the local Raiders bunch, a RB can burn them for 85-yards and all you’ll hear is how good the tackle was.

That could explain some of it. I think they feel obligated to keep the preseason hype going as well, with the new stadium and all. That aside though, they did seem pretty knowledgable about the Denver players. What was that one tidbit about Kircus, he caught like 80 TDs in HS or college?
