It amazes me that ESPN can't/doesn't find someone better than Levy for the NFL.
I don’t think he is as disliked generally as he is here. Nothing like Tess. I’m not saying I like him just why I think he still has the gig.

I could probably handle him with different partners, but everything is always turned up to bro-factor five with these guys. It's fatiguing to listen to.

I’m starting to think firing Anthony Lynn was similar to Warriors firing Mark Jackson

Chargers offense is better than the Raiders offense.
Chargers defense is better than the Raiders defense.

Tough night. Carr might not survive it with this line.

I know LA will always be Raiders first, but I wonder if the next popular changes to the Chargers over the next few years instead of the Rams. Herbert is fun as hell and the powder blue is much better than what the Rams roll out.

Steve Levy is the announcer version of the Will Ferrell skit where he can't modulate the volume of his voice.

There’s often a really fine line in this league. Sometimes teams that lose every close game are just cursed like Atlanta but other times it’s a sign a team is really close to being good. The combo of rookie QB improvement, defense getting healthy, and swapping out a bad coach is working wonders.

YES! But so is Riddick! And Griese isn't too far behind. And don't get me started on Suzy Colber shouting at me all the fucking time.

I like Riddick quite a bit, but I'm pretty sure he would be a whole lot better with a different partner and only one of them.

But nothing tops the Mannings.

How much dinero did the LAC save with Cook over Henry?
Cap-wise - $2.3M (Cook on a 1 year deal, Henry on a 3 year deal)
Cash-wise: $20.5M at a minimum (Henry got $25M guaranteed, most up front, they have him for 2 years (next year's cap hit is $15M, but it would cost them $19M in dead money to get out of it) , then they can cut him and save the last $9.5M salary with just $5M in dead cap).

Levy makes them worse. They have to compete with his volume and they have to force laughter at his dad jokes.

Don't care who wins this, but hoping it's a good game. That helps.

Why? Do you have info on why its called that?
some vague reference to “that’s what we called it with the bucs”

just my opinion and don’t want to get off topic here - I’m sure it’s fine

lol, Please reset the game clock to 1 second, so it can run out right when everyone is ready to run the play.
