Joe Buck to call Eagles-'Skins
Sheil Kapadia, Philly.com
Time for our weekly look at what games will be on TV in the Philadelphia area this weekend.The headliner obviously is Eagles-Redskins, which was moved to a 4:15 p.m. kickoff in Washington. Fox's No. 1 announcing team of Joe Buck and Troy Aikman will have the call.
At 1 p.m. on CBS, most of us will get Steelers-Titans, a possible AFC championship preview, from Tennessee. Jim Nantz and Phil Simms are your announcers.
The other early game on TV will be Patriots-Cardinals on Fox, which will be called by Kenny Albert, Daryl Johnston and Tony Siragusa. Not sure this one will get much love on the tube unless you are playing in a fantasy championship.
The other games Eagles fans will have their eyes on are Bucs-Chargers at 1 p.m. and Falcons-Vikings at 4:15. Neither game will be televised here.
The Thursday night matchup this week is Colts-Jaguars on NFL Network.
And there's a Saturday night game, which should be a good one as the Ravens take on the Cowboys in the final game at Texas Stadium. This is also an NFL Network broadcast.
Sunday night, it's Panthers-Giants on NBC, with the No. 1 seed in the NFC at stake. And the Monday nighter is Bears-Packers
I hope Joe Buck can show Philly a little more love than he did during the Phillies World Series broadcast.. it was ridiculous how blatant the announcers were in their bias toward Tampa Bay and the Dodgers...— Keysphillygal
Comment removed.- Buck doesn't worry me, since I'm more arrogant and self-righteous than he is. Go Eagles!— terry_l
He does suck. I think everyone can agree with that. Every word he said during the World Series was trash.— KINGOFZED
the BUck Brothers are part owners of the Phillies. their name doesnt rhyme with suck - but JOE BUCK rhymes with YOU SUCK— daveH- Let me take a quote from Nancy Kerrigan: Why? Whyyyyyyyyy?— sw2surf
- I guess the tv volume will go off and the radio will go on. Research has shown that for every hour spent listening to Joe Buck, your IQ drops 10 points.— sw2surf
- After listening to every game of the NLDS, NLCS, and WS, I can't say that Joe Buck shows bias for or against the Phils. I know he won't spend much of the Eagles game talking about Brett Favre or call Donavan a Diva.— phan in TN
