does anyone like gruden, as a mnf announcer?

[mountainpantherfan]

During the opening I thought he was applying for a coaching job. He does love him some Panthers...or maybe that was a suppose to be a little over the top as a thank you note to his former bosses?

I enjoyed John Gruden as an announcer. He livened up the commentary, kinda like a young John Madden and put some action into the dead spots by generating discussion about the wildcat. Overall I give him a thumbs up!!

he was okay.

i have to say i was very pleased w/gruden in the mnf booth.

he is very knowledgeable.....and kept saying d.will is the best rb in the league:D hopefully they keep him in there for a while.....way better than kornholer!

I agree but I don't think him and Jaws like each other at all. They seem to fight and say comments back and forth the whole night. Somebody will have to sit between them before the year is over.

It will never compare to the back-and-forth arguments between Jaws and Kornheiser. There were a few times where you could feel the awkwardness in the booth.

i like gruden alot on MNF. especially when he disagrees with Jaws

it's finally nice to have an NFC South mouthpiece, rather than that NFC East sycophant Tony Kornheiser.

now all we have to do is replace Tirico and we've got a pretty good booth for MNF

That was actually the best part of having Kornheiser in the booth...those moments where you knew Jaws was trying not to sock him.

i actually liked him, but i hated the way he said Oregon. "OR.....E.....GONE".

1000% upgrade over the idiot Kornheiser.

I think Gruden is just playing around but Jaws seems more serious, like he has a problem with people disagreeing with him.

[beastson]

He was the best I have seen on there in a while.

Granted it didnt hurt that he couldnt say a bad thing about the Panthers.

He was all over the combined nuts of: DeAngelo Williams, Steve Smith and John Fox.

Shopping for a job?

I like Tirico.

I liked Gruden...thought he did quite well. He was interesting and had a pleasant sense of humor.
