Never thought I'd say it but he's done a good job being fair for this game. Love him calling out Dirk on his genius game plan

I will have to disagree. He would go on and on about the team that he played with (understandable since that's mainly what he knows) but when it came to talking about the falcons it was followed with back handed comments. 

Aside from him give credit to julio and ridley I dont think he really did that good at saying stats and giving info about the home team. If it wasn't for the logo on the field and if I was a new fan I would have assumed the Aints had a home game.

 

Edit: I will say I do see the room for him to improve because he did something really well. I would like to hear from him on a game thats not his old team. I feel that way it doesn't feel one sided.

I thought I was going to hate him during the broadcast but found myself impressed with his breakdowns of coverages. I forgot how smart he was when he played.

Dude was a Academic All American at Miami and had a 3.5 gpa. I believe he graduated in 3 years. Real smart and a very humble guy too

**** yall think your giving the dude enough love? Not something worth mentioning from this game. Doesn't take smarts to realize the Falcons offensive game plan is terrible. Regardless of how he did who tf cares enough to talk about it after the game? 

I guess it goes to show how terrible announcers are that when you hear one you like you wanna praise em but still.

P.S. Hes a former Taint, so **** em regardless

It's just because everyone expected him to be biased and he wasn't. It wasn't anything to do with his skill as a commentator. He was actively calling plays in our favor saying they were clear penalties on the Saints when there were. Former players have a hard time being unbiased calling their former teams games, especially if they are playing their most hated rival. It's certainly worth noting.

What did he say about DK specifically.

Basically his offense was way too predictable. Needed to change up timing or routes because the saints were jumping them. And something along the lines of being surprised that his offense was so flat. I'm paraphrasing that last one

He called one of our games earlier in the season and was fair and objective.
