When Greg Olsen appeared on Fox NFL Sunday, fans were ecstatic.
Alongside Joe Davis, the 39-year-old former tight end Olsen was on the call for the Arizona Cardinals vs. Minnesota Vikings game.

In order to end the game, he told Arizona Cardinals coach Jonathan Gannon to “go for it” during the fourth quarter.
He stated, “I would think about going [for it].” “All right, so here’s how it works. I don’t love the notion. Are you prepared?
“Here, we have a few seconds. Please be patient with me; this is for all the analytics.
Because Minnesota has to say, “Okay, it’s touchdown or bust, they’re going for fourth downs; they’re putting the pedal to the metal to go down to beat you,” I’m actually up six because of this.
“You’re a little more conservative, even if you failed here attempting to make it 10 on fourth down, you’re still only up three.
“All right,” they say, “I have a field goal to tie the game in my back pocket. Thus, this is an intriguing choice.
Gannon had a different perspective than Olsen, and as a result, the Cardinals lost 23–22.
Social media was ablaze with compliments for Olsen after the telecast.
One person said, “At this moment, there is no one better than @gregolsen88.”
“This is really good. And that’s exactly what Minnesota did. Geoff Schwartz, a former offensive guard, said, “I scored a touchdown.”
‘OLSEN IS THE BEST’
“Greg Olsen ought to remain on the Foxes A squad. According to a third, Tom Brady’s color commentary skills are objectively inferior.
“I think that makes perfect sense. Another said, “Olsen is the best.”
Brady, 47, is now in the first year of a 10-year, $375 million deal with Fox.
Alongside Burkhardt, he is a member of the network’s elite team.
