Who are the two calling the game on BTN?

The one guy finishes every statement he makes with “right.”

It’s a major trend and annoys the sh*t out of me.

Definitely has been on target. And we seem to have the weapons, so need to just get them the ball on time and accurately

Throw was slightly behind and came out of sun. Tough to catch. If Heck leads him it is a score

The questionable D keeps on keeping on too. Very encouraging today BUT our normal spot on special teams are a liability. We have been spoiled.

He had to spin around to attempt an off balance catch because the throw was behind him.

I mean, yes, it could have been caught, but it wasn’t a good throw.
