The CBS crew is as good as Colin Jones coverage skills 

Lmao post of the year.

I like Rich Gannon a poo ton more over shitty ass Greg Jennings. Gannon is knowledgeable at least, and gives his opinion on things.

I hate when CBS carries our games. 

Same so f*cking much CBS has a vastly inferior NFL production, glad we arent in the AFC.

Gannon was TERRIBLE and the stock image they were using of Cam, from his rookie year?  Minor detail but bothered me that Cam looked so dated compared to Dalton. Come on, CBS. 

Mildy understandable considering CBS covers AFC games primarily, and we only play 2 games yearly that are broadcast on CBS.... thank god.

CBS is marketed for 60+ year olds. Just watching their pregame show makes me sink into the plastic wrap around my grand mother’s floral couch. It just smells of old. 

Dont believe me? Look at their fall tv line up. 3 of their “headliners” are shows rehashed because they literally have no ideas other than a new series of NCIS. 

Murphy Brown, Macgyver, and Magnum PI shouldn’t be new shows in 2018/2019

Throw in a murder she wrote and an in the heat of the night and I may never turn my tv off

I am thoroughly disappointed in the CBS presentation of the Bengals/Panthers game. The announcers clearly didn't prepare for this game. The announcers called the Panthers the Patriots once, they called Luke Kuechly "Lute Keeley". The production isn't any better. They've failed to update the down and distance several times, and showed a picture of Dasheon Hall instead of Efe Obada. 

Then Hootie and the Blowfish before a commercial break? What does that have to do with this game!

I'm sure y'all have noticed more. This is worse than the Monday Night Football B-Team that covered the Jets-Lions game. CBS sucks. 

You're absolutely right, I noticed this as well. Kevin Harlan, in particular, was very unemotional and ordinary. Take a listen to his Panther touchdown calls on Youtube or Panthers.com.

And I am thoroughly disappointed that a thread has to be started on something tangentially trivial, right after a big win.

What are you, a media critic, or a Panther fan?

Frankly, I thought their coverage of the game was fair, and very positive towards the Panthers -- Cam, CMC, Obada, and others were complimented early and often.  For once, the announcing teal showed no bias against us.  There were many discussions of Cam's added value as a runner, with stats to back it up -- not like the trash we so often here about completion %s or downgrading his effectiveness as an NFL QB, because he lacks this throwing stat or this.  You're entitled to see it a different way, but I respectively beg to differ with you - mainly because I prefer positive insights after a big win, not nit-picking negativeness.

I can still be a Panthers fan and think the media coverage sucks, what is your problem?

They called every Panther receiver that caught a ball Devin Funchess.

I am looking forward to the third game for the Panthers on CBS!!!

[Manther]

Watched the Tivo when I got home.  I couldn't believe the announcers felt the call should have been against Thomas after the bungle hit him... well after he was out of bounds.  fug cbs.  Their halftime show blew too.  Fox is 10x better.

Don't have a problem, hepcat, as the excerpt above shows.  I just prefer criticism after losses, positive thoughts to celebrate after big wins.  Your carry on, my friend. Do your thing, as I'll do mine.
