Kevin Harland should be CBS #1 announcer
 

This game just hi-lighted how good Harlan is as a commentator. I have no idea why Nantz is their #1. I think Green is a dependable color commentator but admit Romo is a better analyst. I think Harlan and Romo should be CBS #1 team.

Harlan describes the game better. He’s better pointing out which player did what. He is more emotionally invested in the game without being a Homer for either team. Nantz seems to have the personality of wet cardboard. Also, he seems to root for whoever is playing KC, although that could be me.

The downside to KC’s quality play is us getting Nantz and Romo. As frustrating as this game was, at least Harlan was in the booth and not Nantz.

Nantz is the worst thing in sports.

He lives in Nashville and likes the Titans, that’s a big reason Nantz hates KC.

I thought Green was hard to listen to.

It felt like he was trying too hard to prove that he wasn’t a Chiefs homer by agreeing with every bullshit call.

Harlan got the play result and game situation wrong a few times. It was like he was in his basement studio at home watching a feed and not actually at the game and able to see what he could choose to look at that was not on a screen.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one that felt that way. Ironically he is really good in the preseason games when he goes full homer.

It was super hilarious when they ran up the rushing stats for dudes wearing #10. I had a nice chuckle at sheepish Green.

I think Green needs more games and maybe a little coaching to be confident in his own voice, but I do like the analysis he gives.

But 100% agree, it should be Harlan/Romo.

I’m normally a big fan of his, but today wasn’t his day IMO.

Green isn’t bad. And he’s better calling non KC teams, I think because he doesn’t have to prove he’s not a Homer. But Romo does a better job of spotting plays before they develop or predicting what teams will do. I’d say Green is CBS #2 for color commentator so I completely get what you’re saying.

The thing is Harlan already has arguably the sweetest broadcasting gig in the NFL.

In his addition to his CBS Sunday game, he calls the Monday Night Football game on Westwood One.

During the playoffs, he's the only broadcaster guaranteed every year to do a wild card game, divisional round game, conference championship game and the Super Bowl because of his Westwood One obligations.

Harland is the absolute best. His play by play of a cat on the field scoring a TD proves it!:thumb:

No idea why anybody is trashing Nantz and Romo. Easily the best commentating team with the best chemistry in the NFL right now.

Harlan is up there as well and I have no real qualms with him usually, but he seriously botched a call today. Trent Green was also super annoying in that game in defending/explaining away the bullshit that was going on repeatedly (Romo would not have done so).

Nantz is the face of CBS Sports keep in mind. Technically but Harlan is so underrated. He should be #1.

Sheesh. Is everyone moving to Nashville?

Stop stealing my takes, OP!
