CBS does a better Ravens telecast -- for one half anyway
The Baltimore SunThe Ravens were finally deemed worthy by CBS Sports of its first-string broadcast team, and what a difference it made in the quality of the telecast -- for one half, anyway. While the first half was outstanding in terms of production and imagery, the...Tags: Al Michaels, Baltimore Ravens, Ike Taylor, NFL Network (tv network), NBC (tv network)

Dierdorf, Gumbel and wretched Ravens make for special TV misery
The Baltimore SunI did not think Sunday-afternoon football, one of the great pleasures of my life, could get any worse than watching the CBS team of Greg Gumbel and Dan Dierdorf calling the game back in October with the Houston Texans whipping the Ravens. But it got...Tags: Joe Flacco, Baltimore Ravens, Houston Texans, Denver Broncos, Peyton Manning

Ravens telecast an early Christmas gift from Fox Sports
The Baltimore SunWhat a pleasure it was to get the first team from Fox for the telecast of a Ravens game rather than the second or third crew from CBS as we usually do. OK, maybe seeing the Ravens bounce back so decisively against the New York Giants, 33-14, has a little...Tags: Joe Flacco, Dallas Cowboys, Baltimore Ravens, Jim Caldwell, Joe Buck

Dear Doctor Z, can watching a Ravens telecast make me ill?
The Baltimore SunBaltimore Ravens fans can’t help but feel frustrated, angry and maybe even sick about what they saw on their TV screens Sunday during a 31-28 loss to the Washington Redskins. But let’s be fair, you can’t blame most of that on lousy...Tags: Joe Flacco, Baltimore Ravens, NFL Network (tv network), Kirk Cousins, Robert Griffin III

Ravens' CBS telecast marred by Peyton-Manning-is-God story line
The Baltimore SunCBS came into Saturday’s game between the Baltimore Ravens and the Denver Broncos with a clear story line in its mind: Peyton Manning is God, and all our cameras and announcers are here to worship him. During the first quarter, viewers saw more...Tags: Sports Authority Field at Mile High , Baltimore Ravens, NFL Network (tv network), Anquan Boldin, Ray Lewis

CBS Sports, Fouts hit new lows in Ravens telecast
The Baltimore SunCBS Sports hit a new low in its coverage of the Baltimore Ravens and San Diego Chargers, and that’s really saying something for this sorry outfit. The network literally missed the opening kickoff. In 30 years of writing about television and...Tags: Joe Flacco, Qualcomm Stadium, Baltimore Ravens, Football, John Harbaugh

NBC superb in Sunday night telecast of Ravens, Steelers
The Baltimore Sun'NBC Sunday Night Football' isn't just in a league of its own when it comes to NFL telecasts. It lives on another planet so far away from the nearest competition that it can't even be judged by the same standards. And last night's broadcast of the...Tags: Game Shows (genre), Ike Taylor, University of Arizona, Television, Football

Albert, Gannon offer solid play-by-play, incredibly lazy analysis of Ravens on CBS
The Baltimore SunI cannot remember watching a football telecast and learning less than I did from the CBS crew Sunday in the Baltimore Ravens 25-15 win over the Cleveland Browns. And the reason for that is simple: Rich Gannon is almost as lazy in his commitment to...Tags: Brian Billick, Baltimore Ravens, NBC (tv network), Cedric the Entertainer, Brandon Weeden

CBS telecast + lame Ravens play = Lower ring of TV hell
The Baltimore SunThings can always get worse, can't they? I used to think reviewing any Baltimore Ravens telecast with Dan Dierdorf and Greg Gumbel in the broadcast booth was about as bad as things could get on my beat. But Sunday, I found out there was a much lower...Tags: Game Shows (genre), Matt Schaub, Joe Flacco, Brian Billick, Baltimore Ravens

Ravens telecast a painful reminder of how bad CBS Sports can be
The Baltimore SunAfter nine months away from Greg Gumbel and Dan Dierdorf, I forgot how maddening it was to watch the second-string unit from CBS Sports try to telecast a Ravens game. Players misidentified, random images inexplicably popping up on the screen, key...Tags: Jeremy Maclin, Baltimore Ravens, DeSean Jackson, Philadelphia Eagles, Injuries and Wounds

Some final TV thoughts on TBS, Orioles, Yankees, Ripken, Johnson, Smoltz
The Baltimore SunHere are some final thoughts from a very tired TV/media critic who didn't miss an inning of Orioles playoff baseball while covering the rest of a huge and sprawling beat. This week, it ranged from the debut of ABC's "Nashville," to Joe Biden smirking ...Tags: Paul Ryan, Baseball, Miguel Gonzalez, Major League Baseball, New York Yankees

CBS, Ian Eagle almost made the Ravens-Chiefs game watchable - almost
The Baltimore SunLet's be frank, life is too short to waste much time on a sports telecast as boring as Sunday's football game between the Baltimore Ravens and the Kansas City Chiefs. First, much of the blame should go to the two teams: They were awful. The Ravens easily...Tags: Joe Flacco, Baltimore Ravens, Dan Fouts, Barack Obama, CBS Corp.
