I think y'all are being hard on Tom because he's TB12. Sure, he looks a little mannequish in his appearance, and, no, he doesn't have the more animated delivery that Olsen has, but he still drops good tidbits of football knowledge (which is why Olsen and Romo are good). I don't hate him, but he'll likely go all-Raider anyway and be out. Olsen isn't out by any stretch. I've seen him on something.

Brady is unquestionably worse than Olsen imo, but he wasn't that bad. Still would rather have had Olsen. Brady hasn't developed the right level of technical explanation for his audience yet either

I hated Romo as a player but he was very good early on in his broadcasting days. I think he kinda mails it in these days but early on he was GOOD. Has nothing to do with who he is, just that his commentary is boring and kinda sucks.

The NFL's rules have never applied to Brady before. Why start now?

Nah people are just being real.  You're just making excuses because he's TB12.  If they hire some lousy announcer and hot shot him to the number 1 spot, of course people are going to complain.  He's lousy.  You're just cutting him slack because he's TB12 and he's getting a lot of (rightfully deserved) criticism for how much he sucks at being on TV.

Romo has on screen charisma.  Regardless of what you think of the content of his commentary.  Charisma is like obscenity.  You know it when you see it.

Brady is just completely wooden and lacking in any personality. He's boring as fug on the mic and really doesn't even add much insight. He's just there. Making a poo ton of money and denying us better commentary.

Lots of others agree (as seen in the other Greg Olsen thread)

Tom Brady is

Tom Brady needs to take his 7 rings and just go away. We already know he's the GOAT we don't need to force an awkward commentator role.
