i think he would do better in the broadcast booth. he has the smarts and the knowledge to do well and add terrific insight to the game. studio analyst would do better with a different kind of former player - maybe a RB/WR - someone who doesn't know the game as well

i like Michaels but ever since switching to TNF he doesn't seem the same. I don't know if its the chemistry with Kirk Herbstreit not going as well or just some of the boring games or just aging. who knows but i think he would do good in the playoffs broadcasting


I don’t understand the studio option. Do people still watch the silly pre game shows? 
 

Al was probably pretty discouraged when he found out his former player analyst is a mediocre college lifer.

I agree with Costas about TB. Mainly because I never watch the pregame shows, so I wouldn't have to look at or listen to him. You want a smart and entertaining analyst? Put Fitz in the booth.

 

As far as TB's ability to offer great insights, Romo did that his first year and the network put the kibosh on it, for whatever reason.
