Here we go again.
Al Michaels has been heavily criticized for his unenthusiastic calls to Amazon Prime Video. Football on Thursday eveningLast year, it felt like X (formerly Twitter) found a call to rant about week after week because there was nothing exciting to hear from the broadcasting legend.
Well, on Thursday in Week 2, it happened again. James Cook scored on an incredible play by the Buffalo Bills, and Michaels’ decision was underwhelming.
This led to a lot of discussion on social media about Michaels being past his prime. Here is a selection of reactions to that touchdown and beyond:
