have you heard anything else about announcers for this game? Seems we haven't ever had Burkhardt/Olsen. technically since its game of the week, we should have the #1 crew? 

 

Not yet...no one has AFAIK. Maybe they will announce it during the Seattle at San Francisco game, but I am not watching that one. I will post as soon as I know...or maybe others will. We'll know by Tuesday afternoon at the latest.

that’s not too surprising though, since we’re only on Fox 2 or 3 times a year… plus, haven’t they only been a tandem since the beginning of last season?

I did some research. Burkhardt and Olsen have only been a tandem since 2021, when they were the B-team for FOX (Buck and Aikman were the A-team). They became the A-team when Buck and Aikman left for ESPN in 2022. Burkhardt and Olsen have never called a Bills game. The last time we had Burkhardt was 2018 pre-season Week 3, Sunday August 26 when we hosted Cincinnati. At the time, the (B-)team was Burkhardt, Charles Davis, and Pam Oliver:
