NFL fans seem to be somewhat mixed in their reactions to the news. Levy, Griese and Riddick was a solid booth deserving of another season to develop more chemistry. However, there continue to be some who wish for bigger names inside the Monday Night Football booth.
“Glad for Steve – Good guy- good broadcaster- His smile is contagious -puts viewers in good mood- Focus will be 2022 season and whether Michaels/Collinsworth migrate to ESPN from NBC-Al’s contract ends after Super Bowl in February,” one fan tweeted.
“ESPN has given up on its football broadcasts a long time ago,” another fan added.
“I’m fine with it they are a decent team,” one fan said.
“Best team in a decade! Competent, entertaining, and insightful without being obnoxious. Pumped for 2021!!” another fan wrote.
The 2021 NFL season is scheduled to begin in early September. The official schedule will be out later this year.
