Football fans had the same annoying complaint about FOX Sports play-by-play commentator Joe Davis in the Washington Commanders’ thrilling 36-33 home win over the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday.
Joe Davis and Greg Olsen were on the call for a Game of the Year candidate inside Northwest Sadium. With just six seconds remaining, Jayden Daniels threw the game-winning touchdown strike to Jamison Crowder.
The three-point victory ended Philly’s 10-game winning streak and clinched Washington (10-5) their first season of double-digit victories since 2012. Moments after Daniels found Crowder, Davis screamed the word, “Preposterous”.
Fans, however, weren’t exactly thrilled with Davis’ performance in the broadcast booth. Some thought “preposterous” was the wrong word, since Eagles backup QB Kenny Pickett played most of the game with Jalen Hurts concussed:
“The worst part about watching today’s loss was having to listen to the commentators Greg Olsen and Joe Davis for 3 straight hours,” one fan wrote.
“Joe Davis is great, but he keeps absolutely ignoring that Jalen Hurts hasn’t played since the first quarter. This isn’t this “preposterous” comeback he thinks it is. Things change when the star QB is out, what a shocker!,” said another.
“I was just disgusted by this. Birds lost its happens. But his commentary was so bad. Just trash,” a fan said.
“He is pretty far from “great”. Way too biased. National announcers should have ZERO bias,” wrote another.

“He was horrible today….Never once considered how the game would have been different if Hurts didn’t get hurt….,” a fan said.
“I can believe this playoff team beat Kenny Pickett… Preposterous!! Season defining win!!,” wrote another.
“I used to like Joe Davis and Greg Olsen but can’t after that “preposterous” way they called that game,” a disgruntled fan wrote.
““It’s preposterous!” Somebody wake up Joe Davis,” said another.
Joe Davis & Greg Olsen Were Treated To A Great Game
Love or hate Joe Davis, but you can’t critique him for showing a ton of positivity and excitement with a thrilling finish like that. One thing that was preposterous: The Eagles’ soft defense on the Commanders’ game-winning drive.
Kansas City Chiefs President Forced To Address Rumors That Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce’s Relationship Is Just A “Marketing Strategy” For The Team

There’s a conspiracy theory for just about everything, including bizarre ones relating to the highly publicized relationship between Grammy Award-winning singer Taylor Swift and Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.
The three-time Super Bowl champion has been in a relationship with Taylor Swift for over a year. Their rumored romance was confirmed when Swift attended the Chiefs’ Week 3, 2023 home game against the Chicago Bears at Arrowhead Stadium.
Kelce’s romance with Swfit has been a giant win for the Chiefs and the NFL, too. She has brought plenty more attention to the NFL and contributed to the Chiefs’ skyrocketing popularity worldwide.
Naturally, conspiracy theorists believe the Travis Kelce-Taylor Swift romance is simply a marketing ploy to help the Chiefs and the league. But Chiefs president Mark Donovan finally addressed the ridiculous rumor during an appearance on NBC’s “Squawk Box” program:
“I’d love to say that it was a marketing strategy, but it is an authentic relationship. And we’re happy to have it, and it’s been nothing but good for us.
I think the best thing I can say about the whole relationship and the impact it’s had on us is, Taylor Swift is an authentic member of the Kansas City Chiefs kingdom. She’s an authentic fan and that matters to our fans and our fan base and to matters to us and we try to respect that.”
