Andrew Catalon, Steve Tasker and Steve Beurlein are calling this game for CBS - they must be the lowest-tier team of CBS broadcasters. And might be the only time they ever call a jets game.
Can anyone remember the last time a JEts game featured an opponent so bad (while they were as bad themselves) to warrant the lowest grade of commentators?
For the record, Beurlein's terrible. Catalon asked him straight up what he would do if he was Woody and he totally took the high road and gave no real answer. He also claimed that he found Geno Smith to be very Impressive when he met with him yesterday?
Scratches head...

Spero Dedes and Solomon Wilcott, last week. NObody's worse than those two, who can't even understand what's going on in the game

Look, you won't get any argument from me that these announcers (like everyone not named Collinsworth) are completely replacement level. There are numerous bloggers and podcasters who could do an infinitely superior job.
But arguing that Buerlein and Tasker are tangibly below Dedes and Wilcott is completely pointless. They're all shit, and I don't even think CBS has them differentiated on their internal depth chart.

you know I think you might be right actually I went on the Wikipedia site and it doesn't appear that any of these combinations are ranked once you get simms and Marv Albert and gumbel.

I miss Dick Enberg - OH MY! He's the best. Everyone else stinks. Gruden is pretty good although many hate him. I can't stand Simms, Collinsworth, most broadcasters. I actually liked Enberg and Deirdorf. THey were classic announcers. Simms plays up his "aww shucks I'm a hick schtick". Never thought he was a good player and like him less as an announcer.
