It was my first listen with them and to be honest I pretty much blocked them out. They didn't tell me anything I didn't already know.
Tessitore was passable as the driver, he has a good "TV voice". Witten hasn't found his broadcasting legs and just isn't very interesting.
I didn't think McFarland brought much of anything to the sidelines. I only listened to the first half but wasn't overly impressed. I also
thought their commercial free halftime report with the music was a little strange as well. Keep it

Yup. Someone must be telling these guys they need to sell the game and the players to the audience. But they act like kids in a candy store even when the action doesn't justify it. Just call the game and give us insights as to what is happening on the field. I don't need cheerleaders in the booth for a national game. I am already flying out of my seat on a pick 6 or sack strip.

I'm hoping that's CTE kicking in.

the pbp and color guy sucked as did the sideline guy.

the three on at halftime were pretty good.

That "concert" complete with audience plants, was terrible.

Honest question guys, what the hell do you want? Tessitore is decent. Give Witten time. Booger is decent, too.

It's a clumsy format with a new broadcast team, but I expect little from sports broadcasts and stopped caring much back in the 90s when everything became a caricature

Just give me someone interesting to listen too. I'd rather have David Ferehty making jokes describing things confused why the players are running with the ball in their hands.

Yeah, that's low effort bait.

I'd take Sean McDounough back. And fewer Dallas Cowboys. And no Booger McFarland.

I think that it is pretty well proven that 3 man booths are just redundant. Booger on the sideline is just a gimmick, similar to when Siragusa did it. Choose one guy, put him upstairs. I personally would take Booger over Witten.

I also think ESPN “pumps in” crowd noise—with kids sleeping, I found myself adjusting the volume continuously.

I couldn't tell you who was who, but I heard a lot of Mike Patrick over-excitement on standard plays....they suck.

Collinsworth / Michaels....sucks.
John Gruden was awful.

Cannot think of a national team in this day that's any good.

The announcers last night didn't even mention the press conference Marshall had about his victim.

Check out a Sunday afternoon game with Romo and Nantz. They are about as good as it gets for NFL these days in my opinion
