1-5 Stars, how bad was Steve Levy, Brian Griese and Louis Riddick last night? (1 Viewer)

I’m glad I watched the manning broadcast

I liked how they said 'Seattle has dominated the first half' as we were driving down the field to score right before the half.

Seattle had 57 yards outside of their one big play at that point.

Those guys were awful.

Are negative numbers allowed?

I muted the TV as soon as Griese defended Metcalf for shoving Lattimore after whistle blew, away from the play and as Latt was jogging to the pile. Metcalf got under Latt's skin and that was unfortunate - but to defend DK shoving him "as part of the play" was just asinine.

So I muted it and fired up the WWL feed on my Sirius.

Have to say...I really, really like Mike Hoss calling the games with Deuce. He's got a good voice and I like how he lets his homer flag fly (he was calling out the egregious poor spots in the first half). And I didn't always love Deuce on the mic but he was awesome last night. Called out coverages and added a lot of interesting tidbits.

It was a little tricky getting everything synched up but it was really nice once I did and I plan to do that going forward each week -- especially for the Tampa game where I can only assume it will be a national Brady slobber-fest.

Remember that time that they said that the Seahawks dominated the Saints the entire first half? That was funny

When I heard that I almost fell out the chair…

Then 10 minutes later they read the stats for the first half which totally debunked their “dominated” comment…

I usually don't complain about biases.

They completely ignored Metcalf's OPI and his obvious punk moves. It wasn't until the second half when Riddick finally kind of called him out.

On the other side, Peyton & Eli perfectly called out Metcalf

Just like every other announcers, they need to stop jinxing us.

"Here's Brad Johnson, who never missed field goal attempt in college, get his first NFL career field goal attempt." I was like, "Dude shut up!!!"

And don't get me started on the way how they kept defending Metcalf's actions throughout the game.

Marshawn Lynch was gold on the Manningcast...ESPN must of had a heart attack with the language

 

[UFCSaint]

My favorite part was when the Seahawks got called for a 5 yard penalty on our 4th and 5 field goal attempt. The announcers said, "Well that just put the kick a little closer..."

Oh that was funny. Then the last 5 minutes of the game they turn the switch and start praising us.

I worry about next week. You know Evans is a bit sore about Latt dominating him so often, so I'm assuming he's going to take a note from Metcalf and start shoving Latt away from the play in an effort to get a retaliation flag.

Latt has to keep his cool and let his dominant play do the talking for him.

 

[Sailorsaint]

Latt needs to play like Lebron.

Latt needs to play like Lebron.

Like flopping?

I too watched the Peyton and Eli version. It was entertaining except when Brady was on. I was hoping they were going to talk more about growing up in New Orleans though. Based on the comments, I'm glad I didn't watch the main broadcast.
