Is Dan Fouts officially now the worst game analyst working the NFL?? He is brutal. There is no analysis, just mostly echoes what Eagle says and I think he's half blind. Really, really bad IMO.

(I might be in a bad mood.)

There is a reason Fouts is on CBS' 4th/5th team - he really does suck as an announcer.

How would a Steelers/Chiefs marquee game that was carried in a lot of out of markets (including here in Arizona) be considered the 4th/5th tier?

If this is the correct "ranking" they are the #2 team. That is scary and embarrasing.

His analysis is embarrassing and often wrong.

All analysts not named Romo are often wrong

I agree. Romo is fantastic, I really like listening to him call a game.

Man he was bad yesterday and, a few years ago a few raven fans I know were saying the same. For a while I thought Dan was just a hater know we know he is just as bad as the Steeler defense.

I was watching some highlights from week one with my son this morning. Fouts was calling the Chiefs/Chargers game. T. Hill raced down the sideline for a 91-yard TD and Fouts was talking about how he may have went out of bounds. The replay showed a good 14-18" away from the sideline the whole way. I really think he needs some new glasses. He's blind.

He didn't know the rule on the play when Ben threw the TD pass but was very close to going beyond the line of scrimmage.

He made several comments during the game that a former NFL quarterback should know....but he was painfully incorrect.

He routinely credits the wrong players for action on the field.

He has no personality whatsoever.

He has no broadcasting skills to speak of.

I don't understand how he has a job. :huh:

Easy to understand, he's Dan Fouts, that's why. If it were you or me making the same gaffes on air, we'd be fired the next day lol. Any player or coach in the NFL that wants a broadcasting job it's pretty much guaranteed if they had moderate success. Even more so for great players like Fouts, even if they're terrible at it.

How did Madden get his job with gems like: "When the ball crosses the goal line, it's a touchdown", or "usually the team with more points at the end of the game wins" nah, ya think? :chuckle:

TBH I didn't expect much from him but he does do a very good job
