Although he does a pretty good Charles Barkley. Madden and Dubya were his bread and butter though.

Now you know its a big game because Daryl Green is returning kicks. Normally he doesn't but when its a really big game, Joe Gibbs will have him return kicks. He's back there returning kicks today. And when I see that, I say to myself this is a big game


Also...... I think the Patriots will play for overtime here. If they had better field position I wouldn't say that but here I think they will just play for overtime.
I don't agree with what the Patriots are doing here. If they had better field position I would but I think this is a mistake
Well they are still 40 yards from Adam Vinatieris range
Well now I kind of like what the Patriots are doing
This...this is unbelievable what the Patriots are doing
What Tom Brady just did gives me goosebumps.

Damn...I remember him from when he coached, not just from his announcing....

I know in his later years his spiel had become harder to listen to, but for better or worse, he was one of the NFL's iconic figures...

Man, these years just keep on rollin' by....

I hated that bastard as a coach, but only because he coached the hated Raiders.

But I really hated that useless bastard as a broadcaster.

His schtick sucked from the very start.

ESPN Radio Sportscenter was reporting that Chris Collinsworth would move from the studio to replace Madden.

That's a shame. He's actually gotten a lot better in recent years and is one of the better NFL broadcasters out there.

that does say something about the sad state of NFL broadcasters.
especially NFL Network.
