If we’re counting radio guys, Westwood One has always had some top-tier talent on their primetime games. Kevin Harlan is a voice I find very effective at painting a word picture of the game action.

Although I agree with the point made about Dennis Miller throwing the rhythm of the broadcast off, the reason he didn't succeed is way simpler than that. The average football fan (and person in general) is not going to get Dennis Miller's "jokes." I consider myself fairly knowledgeable in history and a lot of other things, but most of his references were way over my head, let alone the average person. Not very conducive to a football broadcast.

Even though I didn't care for Summerall as an announcer, I did enjoy watching him and Tom Brookshier on "This week in Pro Football", hosted every Sunday morning in the late 60s and early 70s.
Can’t stand this guy! So stiff, no life. Pronunciation issues and he acts like he’s moderating a presidential debate! Hovers on one favorite per game and mentions him till you can’t stand it anymore! Also don’t need to know every player’s physical dimensions after every play or his stats. Basically - just shut the F up! You ain’t no Howard, or, Al, or Dandy Don, or Herb, or Giff!
