Coltrs V Patriots thread
Greg Olson is good in the booth.
Bit of an obnoxious showman, and he sort of outed himself a few weeks ago as a Cowboys mark, but he's shown me plenty of enthusiasm, a experienced, intelligence long-running player's perspective on in-game decisions, moments, tempos, different offensive arrangements, though not on Romo's caliber nor does he match his precision, unorthodox tendencies to almost still see how on-field teams read and react to one another.
In the long-term, I'm not sure FOX Sports might not consider moving him to their college football play-by-play commentary teams as his high-spirited, rah-rah instincts and melodramatic foreplay have more a place there then on NFL broadcasts.
He's not as good as Romo, but he's far more interesting, intriguing and likable type personality then Chris Collinsworth, who has been the epitome of smug, self-centered, condescending play-by-play analysis and insight for over 30 years since Joe Montana ruined his second (and last) chances at winning a SB in 1988 with the Cincinnati Bengals.
