I think they all more or less suck. So what about Beth and Tiki was so bad? I think you’re just not used to them so you’re incredibly biased here Beth Mowins did a decent job. It was Tiki Barber that was clueless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You make a lot of assumptions. The virtue signaling is strong with you, but believe it or not some people have a different opinion than you and don’t enjoy her calling games, for a variety of reasons. It’s not for the reasons you immediately assume it is. Posters have provided solid, concrete examples today backing up their opinion but you deflect. Some introspection may benefit you as those who espouse their liberal values are often the most closed minded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DasNootz Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 She was fine - on par with any other broadcaster they trot out on a week to week basis. She wasn’t Al Michaels, but I prefer her to Solomon Wilcots who we had for years. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichRiderBills Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 I like busting on a bad commentator, but she did fine. Tiki was a bit tonguetied half the time, which surprised me becuase he does a decent job w/ radio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean they have no shortage of horrible commentators to the point I’ve always wondered why the major networks’ overall roster is so thin. She’s as average as any of them imo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davefan66 Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Watched the game when I got home. These two are the worst play-by-play and analyst I’ve heard. Barber is a complete buffoon.

Gugny Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 I lasted about 3 minutes and said, "EFF THIS." The radio was less than one second ahead of the TV. That was perfectly fine and I muted that television as fast as I could. I hope she never calls another Bills game for the remainder of her career.

Yeah, they all called Allen's TD to Knox.....1st it was a QB sneak, then it was a handoff.....Boomer saying how bad the weather was but there are 80K fans screaming . Not 80K and it was only rain, no wind and it wasn't cold. Barber is brutal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WEAK that's the way I look at it as well. As long as the play call is correct and accurate, I'm good. Now the color commentator is a different story...

RiotAct Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 I was at the game so didn’t hear the broadcast, but I watched the game highlights on nfl.com and I’d put her firmly in the Maddy Glab category.

bmur66 Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 I'd put her over Boomer and the clowns that filled in during technical difficulties but under Joe Thiesmann. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was shocked at how close the audio was to the game. It was a tiny bit frustrating hearing what was coming. Even a half second makes a huge difference. But I got used to it and ended up enjoying it quite a bit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May Day 10 Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 (edited) I usually have an aversion to female announcers to tell the truth. Its probably a bit neanderthal and misogynistic burned in over my 43 years, but it just doesn't seem right to me, especially for a sport like American Football which they never really played. Of course there are plenty of male broadcasters who have the same playing experience, but I overlook it. Anyways, I thought she was perfectly fine, even very good. My 8 year old kid couldnt stand her though. We had to go somewhere and we got in the car, and he was outwardly happy that Murphy was announcing. I thought that was interesting because he doesnt have 43 years of bias baked in yet (I defended her as an announcer to him). I actually think Murphy is a terrible radio announcer.

JMF2006 Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 I have to say that she was ok yesterday.

hondo in seattle Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Beth was good. Knew what was happening on the field and could competently describe it. Voice sounded dramatic or excited at appropriate times. I don't get all the negativity. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
