Duchess Jack Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 (edited) Who all do you feel will make the best commentators? And who - if anyone - will likely to make the best coach? I was playing Madden 04 last night...franchise....and somewhere around year 5 - my coach retires and who is out there looking for a coaching job? Jeff Garcia. My wife said he just wanted to keep his access to the locker room... without things looking too weird... ((edited to add that total access has done everyone a great favor in letting us know who all will not work ala Gary 'makes dickerson sound eloquent' Baxter)) Edited May 2, 2005 by Duchess Jack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chargerz Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 I think Doug Flutie would make a he|| of a good commentator. I've seen him in interviews before, and he comes across very well!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wizards Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 Joe Gibbs would make a good one! Heck IMO Darrell Waltrip could come over from NASCAR and boogety boogety boogety could do way better than what's there now....(he's retired or is that retarded? Last but not least Bill Parcells isn't long for Texas and would make a great/honest commentator with knowledge... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hitman Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 I don't even listen to what he's saying. All I see is THE GAP!!!! 800705[/snapback] True dat! I do think he would be good though. Maybe Eddie George? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 I think Bettis would make a decent commentator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duchess Jack Posted May 3, 2005 Author Share Posted May 3, 2005 I dig the 'Bus' answer - he'd be great. The Whistler would also be great. Farvre doesn't seem - as charasmatic as he is - the commentator type. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimD Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 I think Bettis would make a decent commentator. 801529[/snapback] Warren Sapp would too. I think he should retire from the Raiders and become a play by play man for fox. Then that will enable fox to tie Chris Collinsworth to a poll at whichever stadium they are broadcasting from. When the opposing team scores fans can throw whatever they would like at him all at once. I think that would make it a little better when opposing teams scored against yours.

Perchoutofwater Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 I'd be willing to bet that Jerry Rice finds his way to the booth. I can also see Eddie George in the booth. I can see Favre as a coach, but not a commentator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azazello1313 Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 it's not a transition you see a lot of WRs make (ray berry would be an exception), but i think rod smith would make an excellent coach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahawks21 Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 As trends go, its almost never the superstar players that become good coaches, so this is incredibly difficult to predict. Off the top of my head, a couple guys that jump out at me as possible future head coaches are Isaac Bruce and John Lynch. They both have that ability to remain calm and focused at all times, and both are technicians and perfectionists. Oh yeah and of course I forgot Deion.

piratesownninjas Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 they're still a few more years off than others but coach wise, Teddi Bruschi and Ray Lewis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patsfan04 Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 (edited) Christian Fauria is interested in that career path. He is pretty intelligent and speaks well, as opposed to the "look at me" guys like Sapp. Edited May 4, 2005 by Patsfan04 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Little Bit Special Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Favre? 801566[/snapback] Not sure how he would do. He is pretty witty in his interviews, but I have a feeling when he retires he's just going to walk away. I don't see TV in his future.

Controller Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 If I acquired an NFL franchise, I would hire Corey Chavous to head up the player personnel dept. That guy did an amazing job analyzing the rookie draft. I would be shocked if he doesn't end up in that role for a team as soon as he retires. Rich Gannon would make a great QB coach or maybe an OC eventually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the step down would take some shine off ala Marino. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
