ESPN signed away Joe Buck from FOX meaning Buck & Aikman will be the new voices of Monday Night Football. Buck is getting a 5 year deal in the $60M-$75M range from ESPN while Aikman got a 5 year $92.5M deal.

This is why I wanted to get into Sports Broadcasting... holy hell that's a lot of money. Wonder who FOX will get to replace them.

All that $$ for mediocrity. ESPN will still have worst prime time crew.

They should hire @rossihunter2 and @allblackraven. Atleast we would have some nice accents to listen to.

will be interesting to see what his development will be if he plays LG consistently.

I do wanna see him at G, however, his effort has looked really shitty at times and I think it rubs many the wrong way, me included.

i think some are mistaking lack of "tackle" athleticism for lack of effort tbh

my only real concern on an "effort" level is the way he sometimes bounces off blocks and doesnt finish through the whistle like i wish he would

i know cleveland's the better measurable athlete but just on the basis of the tape (both in college and now in limited NFL film), it seems to me that Tyre's the better functional athlete

Happy birthday to Ozzie Newsome! EDC wouldn't be half the GM he is today, if he didn't learn under The Wizard

He had the best GM mentor in football for many years.

Neither block through the whistle but tyre sometimes doesn’t seem to give a shit at the end of the play, his lack of effort on the pick six vs Buffalo has left a very bad taste

iirc it was orlando brown who let up when he had a chance not tyre...

Just rewatched it. Pretty sure that's Brown not even trying to make a move. He had a chance to make the tackle too. Phillips was the 3rd to last guy chasing, behind Lamar and Hill.

Damn you’re right

 

[rossihunter2]

Damn you’re right

how long have you been down on tyre because subconsciously in the back of your mind he was orlando on that play?
