I don't understand the Collinsworth hate. I think he's pretty good. Romo is terrible. And Aikman is slowing down.

Collinsworth's mannerisms are way more bothersome to me than any other notable CC guy in the game. The chuckling and constant bemusement with relatively routine plays.
Collinsworth is all over the X and O’s but if only he was as easy to listen to as Aikman.
I just love Josh Allen. Don't care about the picks, the occasional dumbass fumble, the guy is just an incredible playmaker. He'll win a Super Bowl before he retires.
Maybe I rate Romo too high because of that game in which he called three Patriots plays before the snaps on a single drive (Kansas City AFCCC or Atlanta Super Bowl was it?).
Number 20 on the Steelers just gave up on the play. Jogging half-heartedly. Not a good sign for Pittsburgh.
Yeah, Buffalo not having their punter in this game will be a real killer. Someone call 911 for me. I hurt my eyes rolling them.
Yeah, and next week, if necessary, they'll have a new penguin ... err, punter
Romo obsessed with running clock, that makes no difference in this situation. PIT would have had two TO and like 1:45 or more left from inside the 35 even if Buffalo ran twice.
I agreed in real time, and I also agreed with whether the FG was worth it. Run it twice and punt if you don't get the first down.
He’s actually been a nice fill-in while Fitzpatrick was out and Kazee was suspended. Between their safety health problems and losing both their starting ILBs in Alexander and Holcomb, they’re really scraping the barrel for warm bodies. Their D is really good when it’s healthy, and by all rights would be justified in ignoring the offense.
I think his point is that if they run the ball twice instead of 2 incomplete passes, they run the clock down and potentially get the first.
I think.
He didn't predict plays. He saw them run plays in practice and "called" the plays based on that. Teams then told him to cut the shit which is why he doesn't do it any longer.
That was in Romo’s first year, when he was good. Since then he’s gotten worse and worse. There are precious few announcers I can’t stand, and he’s at the top of the list.
I’m not a “men gotta be men” guy, but Rudolph putting on his parka for a 30 second TO doesn’t inspire confidence…
Haha as he throws a TD

It could really hurt. Forget about bad punts - got to be worried about turnovers from someone not used to punting, especially in these conditions. I think you have to have a QB do it (the second or third string guy) because they'd be most likely to handle the long snap cleanly.
He might have been right. But, as they showed last night, "running out the clock" doesnt mean *running*.
The Cowboys scored right before halftime and yesterday and it didn't do them much good. I doubt this TD will do much for Pittsburgh either.
