Usually not a fan of Aikman. I did appreciate his praise for Goff. He loved that throw to Kupp in the end zone. On the long TD throw to Cooks he actually gave praise to Goff. He was referring to Goff being flat footed and not making such a long throw. He broke down the Kupp route. He was fair to both sides. Buck adds some excitement announcing the play by play. I could take him or leave him.

Aikman's been one of the best analysts for years now. But it did irritate me how they didn't mention hold after hold after hold by the Vikes' OL, I mean there were a couple early on that were so blatant it was ridiculous. Also the flag the refs picked up on the block in the back was a mistake, but the reason the refs picked it up IMO was because Gurley had changed direction and the defensive player was out of the play regardless of whether he was blocked in the back. That's the kind of thing refs do for great offenses, btw.
Buck isn't all that bad. Honestly I just wish some of these guys would detach themselves from the storyline of the media, like the early mentioning by Aikman of Goff being on the radio with McVay. He's a QB for chrissakes, he knows how that works. Going to that particular well is just being lazy IMO. But both of them did come around pretty well as the game went on and were very complimentary to our QB as they should have been.

Great point.
I use to get excited if we would get Chris Meyers. He was the only guy that would say anything good about the Rams. I still like Meyers BTW.
To get the ATeam is a big deal

I thought they were great. I cant stand Buck, but respect him for sticking up for St Louis, not apologizing for it and yet being professional about the Rams on air

This^^^. Sorry but I can’t stand Buck - the little Rams hating fuck. The guy never mentioned a pretty raucous LA fan base but at least twice talked about all the queens fans in attendance.

Baseball was Buck's first and truest love and I think for the first few years, calling football games was nothing but a pay check to him. Dry, monotone, no personality. He didn't get excited about anything. Super Bowl 42, the David Tyree catch, man that was bad. One of the greatest plays, on one of the greatest drives, for one of the greatest upsets in Super Bowl history and Buck sounded like he was watching grass grow.
But him and Aikman are a lot better than they used to be. Buck's call on the Minnesota Miracle, shows how far he's come.

The way the Rams offense was lighting it up, you either get on the train or get left standing at the station.
