so last Sunday I go to the Eagles Bar here in town with a buddy who is a huge Eagles fan . . . I went because the place has got the best bar food in town, great wings, Yuengling always on special.

Anywho Brian Billick was the color guy for the TV broadcast.

Very impressive . . . clearly knows the game, knows how to communicate what's going on to the audience in a highly technical but not nerdy fashion, much better than listening to Gruden and Jaws try to out football nerd each other while Gruden sprinkles in overused hyperbole every step of the way.

Reminded me a lot of Hank Stram, without Hank's constant trips down memory lane.

Billick IMO should get a serious look to move up the ranks to higher profile games.

Pretty sure he made the list of top broadcasters on the other thread on here, at least honorable mention anyway.
