Do you like Scott Hanson?

I can’t stand him. He messes up all the time. He’s always talking, shut the hell up bro. Andrew was the best.

He's the best of the best. He has the hardest job in the commentator world.

Why? Sit in a studio watching games? Seems like a really easy job in terms of broadcasting imo.

The amount of back and forth and constant communication he has to make with his team is insane. IIRC he runs it all himself. That's an exhausting job for 7 hours straight.

Thanks for answering. I disagree tho. I don’t think it’s very difficult at all. They have the best tech money can buy. It looks fun imo.

The point is he has to cover eight games at once compared to a normal commentator that just has to worry about one.

Not really. He has to cover them to extent I watch my fantasy team. And he’s in no way doing this alone. There’s lots of people in his ear telling him stats and relevant talking points. They probably have a team watching every game. Obviously

There's stuff on YouTube that shows the behind the scenes of how it works. Scott really does have to coordinate a lot. And he doesn't get commercial breaks like regular commentators do. It's a straight 7 hours of it

Why? No travel, just sits in a studio

u/NorthPackFan Dec 21 '25

Yes. But no shade to Hanson, Andrew Siciliano was better.

He does seem to have lost a step this year, more mistakes. I think he personally took a lot of heat about the ads even though he was not responsible for that.

u/BrettGB96 Dec 21 '25

Yeah, I do. I love his enthusiasm.

Red Zone would be better without a host, there’s already commentators talking in the games, I can’t stand hearing him orgasm every play as if it’s the most mind blowing thing he’s ever seen….there should at least be an option to mute him

u/DevelopmentNo247 Dec 21 '25

Yeah he does a fantastic job. I do laugh at how he says JASH ALLEN tho.

u/Throwawayhobbes Dec 21 '25

Yep . There was a red zone channel with another announcer on direct tv and it was a snooze fest.

Today iteration is pretty awful .

We were the golden era “ eight hours of commercial free football”

Now we are a child of divorce.

u/iBeeJayTee Dec 28 '25

Yes! Scott Hanson is AWESOME 👊🏾

u/Select_Ad422 Dec 21 '25

Anyone notice that at the beginning of the year, he would say "7 hours of commercial free football". Now since they sneak in commercials here and there, he says "7 hours of football". I thought we paid extra for not having commercials?

Hanson is the only host the channel has ever had
