[@markbailey17]

i cannot imagine hating chris collinsowrth. this dude is a delight. what a life and a what a world.

[@ElTigreEsq]

can't stand him and I skip SNF every week because he is on the call.

[@williamdillard5060]

CC was a BEAST. He could go deep. Go across the middle. Block. He was tough.Because of success in sports media folks forget or aren't old enough to remember him.

[@volt91997]

He played 40 years ago of course people don't know him as a player

[@raywelch6954]

Chris is one of the best. Also was a great player.

[@mickylawless1941]

Long before Tony Romo was making early reads or calls on a play, Chris was doing it years ago.

[@dilloncrain9111]

7:21 they need to stop putting the cowboys in prime time. The only entertainment they have provided this year is drama.

[@stingrey1571]

Dan’s favorite question. “Is player X a hall of famer?”

[@williamdillard5060]

Right 😅

[@markbailey17]

how dare he.

[@RichardHubler]

Yeah he's really reaching

[@carlb1409]

I don't get the hate. Or the "I turn the sound off so I don't have to listen to him". He's a fine dude. HOF career and nice guy.

[@dantheman8152]

Am I the only one who likes Collingsworth commentary lol

[@IWasRaisedAMiddleClassPatriot]

*Dan Patrick is the 🐐*

[@johnperrigo6474]

I tend to agree with you. I almost always enjoy his broadcasts.

[@kellykloss4653]

Frank Gore is a more of a 49er hall of famer than McCaffrey is. If Christian is going to get in, there are alot of men that have to be hall of famers first.

[@markbailey17]

i mean that’s one take.

[@HaydenKile]

What filter is Chris using he looks like a drawing

[@johaw105]

Existential crisis?

[@MegaGuapo97]

That’s the Handsome Devil filter.

[@scottvann4267]

Same thing I was thinking.

[@JusticeDuncan-gg7yq]

😂😂😂

[@marcusparks]

He's using the dial-up filter.

[@shawnbrown2726]

NO! Mcaffery is not in the HOF. Why? Oft injured with Carolina, now the same deal with the NIners. He had one great year with the NIners and one great year with the Panthers ..in between he was always hurt. If you put him in, you have to put Terrell Davis from the Broncos in.

[@LewisPark44]

Davis is in the hall of fame.

[@shawnbrown2726]

@@LewisPark44 He is? Thank you , I didnt think he was

[@george474747]

It's odd how Dan is such a fantastically intelligent interviewer and presenter, yet when he offers Hall of Fame takes, he's always reducing it down to simplistic career total numbers. Career totals reflect circumstances more than the player's impact against the most difficult opponents. You have to watch the critical games, deeply. That's a far better test. From his conclusions, I can only assume he doesn't watch that much football that analytically. The best GMs, like the best gamblers, are all about isolating the player's contribution to victory from their circumstances and their production against weak opponents.

[@george474747]

When you watched backs like Marshawn Lynch and Darren Sproles on the key downs in the biggest games against the best opponents, it was just so obvious that they were clearly Hall-of-Fame-level players - clearly on a level above guys with more career yards. No unbiased viewer at the time would have said Frank Gore was close to their level. (An extra 5 seasons of 4.0 yards per carry isn't really gonna make anyone win Super Bowls.)

[@drdoc7508]

Dallas Wilson heading to Gators.. wow.. gators have a juggernaut of a receiving core for next year.. I think Florida now in top 5 recruiting class

[@markbailey17]

feels like window dressing until they win something.

[@genius179]

FWIW, Collinsworth was a good commentator in Madden those years

[@markbailey17]

this isn’t coherent. ironically.

[@Lance-Stroll]

Of course he looks at comments after the game.

[@kingofmars9627]

I didn't recognize Collingsworth without him loving up on Mahomes' jock strap.

[@RASTAGOOB]

That’s Romo

[@JimmyJuelz]

Crazy everyone has a social media page but none of them actually read the comments

[@IWasRaisedAMiddleClassPatriot]

Why is that crazy? They’re using social media for extra reach, not reading comments lol

[@JimmyJuelz]

​@@IWasRaisedAMiddleClassPatriot I think its crazy that people just post a bunch of stuff and don't even care what people think about it. So in the end its just about how many followers you can accumulate....not even if people like what your saying or not...that seems pretty crazy to me

[@MegaGuapo97]

Productive people don’t do what we do. Like many, I love giving opinions that strangers may read and like…great dopamine rush for a shallow existence.

[@patrickwright8552]

We are the marks, as we let it exist

[@MegaGuapo97]

@@JimmyJuelz Amateur posters care about and are affected by comments; successful channels don't read many of the comments, but do produce a ton of metrics based on the comments to get an overall sense of how the episode was received.

Hall of famer? I love CM but he's not even a finalist

[@myothercarisadelorean8957]

He makes Sunday Night unbearable to watch. Just yaps and yaps about boring play calls and boring stories about his time as a pro.

[@ivanmatic23]

Meanwhile, Al Michaels makes boring sounds on huge plays nowadays, watch tonight. I will take Collinsworth anyday over Al Michaels now. Michaels is a legend but not the same anymore.

[@myothercarisadelorean8957]

@@ivanmatic23 Lets just agree that all these play calls guys now suck and all have to kiss ass to their network boss.

Compares every great play to Mahomes and Kelce*

[@myothercarisadelorean8957]

@@dilloncrain9111 Have you also noticed that criticism talk is no longer allowed? Every commentator or players always has to say how he has the upmost respect for someone. Joe Burrow could play like absolute shit and the next day they will say "you have to give him credit, he is an elite QB".

[@williamwarner8189]

Wow! Everyone's so critical on here. My respect level must be much higher for Al and Chris. Class acts, my opinion.
