now who will state the obvious for us?

Exactly. He and others seem to feel that every second must be filled with trite, meaningless "analysis". Before every game they should be reminded that it is being televised and viewers can see for themselves.

Actually that’s what the TV executives think, that’s why they hire play by play and color men. Madden actually deepened the standard analysis in sports, before him none of the color commentators knew the names of anybody that wasn’t a QB, WR or RB, it was all skill position all the time. Anytime you hear an analyst discuss a blocking scheme today that’s Madden’s influence.
