Tasker is generally a pretty good voice, and I think it's great he represents the city and team the way he does. He elevated the value of the special teams position, was willing to play anywhere at any time, and a lot of cities would be happy to call him one of theirs. On the other hand t hat means some Bills fans must piss on him every time his name comes up because it's more important to them to be contrary for the sake of standing out than attempt to find the line between critical and respectful.

Kelly the Dog Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 (edited) If Tasker is a Peterman guy I know I am right because he is always wrong. Love Tasker the guy, love Tasker the player, love Tasker the Bills/Buffalo ambassador. He's a terrible analyst and announcer. Just brutal. The kind of guy that just before the replay says, "Watch player W do X!" and you will then see player Y do Z.

I do both. I congratulate, commend and thank him for all his did on the field and for the team, city and community. And also criticize him because he's a terrible announcer. Really bad. And I would love to love him if he was any good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO I think Schopp is less negative and more pompous. I believe he tends to be on the spectrum with his view points and how he views others' "less than optimal" ones.

He’s on the broadcast team for the game, I believe. I think his son worked out with Peterman in the offseason. Hopefully, he’s right but I feel his opinion is more than he likes Nate as a person.

Peterman is easy to like as a person, but it shouldn't cloud anyone's judgment about his abilities as a QB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister Defense Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 16 hours ago, 26CornerBlitz said: How about he's just plain awful. He cannot articulate concise, salient well constructed analysis to save his life. On the contrary-- Tasker is a sharp, precise, straight forward, pulls no punches commentator. He doesn't suffer fools easily and does not cow tow or grandstand. The same kind of qualities that made him a superb football player. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess your the kind of person that looks at the glass ( half full ? ) personally I think that’s great , Back to Shopp , I can’t stand him still whining about Tyrod , I agree with Shopp ONe thing , if we’d build more of an offense around him yes he would probably have a little better numbers , but at the end of the day it’s all about winning the SB and IMO he’s NOT the QB to get us there , so I would rather go 3-13 a year or two while building a team for a SB run ( just like we did in the 90’s ) then keep going 7-9 / 8-8 / 9-7 for another decade , don’t forget to like and share!!!

The Dean Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 On 9/7/2018 at 9:41 PM, Kwai San said: Steve was an awesome player to watch.....as an announcer to listen too?? Well not so much. He either has alot to learn or he is doomed to the legions of bad broadcasters.... Exactly. I can't be sure of the issue, but I find it hard to believe Steve puts the same time and effort into preparing for his broadcast job as he did preparing for football. For a guy like Steve, I don't believe there are shortcuts. He simply doesn't have enough natural talent to be great at it naturally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LABILLBACKER Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 On 9/7/2018 at 6:45 PM, 26CornerBlitz said: He's done that before on CBS games, but he's a straight homer on One Bills LIve. He's not good in either role IMO. That's always been Steve's one glaring flaw is he's blatantly trying way to hard to be objective. This anti Bill's style comes off as disingenuous. Romo accurately predicting the next play was pretty hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Listening to him on Mutph's show today and he thinks the Bills can win Sunday and convinced me of the same thing- he made me more excited for the game. He broke through the common doom and gloom, expect some pain mentality for this year's team and even predicts a better season than last year. I know he is probably a little biased (for many reasons) but I don't care! He gave me some hope for this game and this season that I did not have before I listened to today's show. Thank you Steve! Tried to tell you man. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
