    Ron Jaws sent to the studio

    ESPN's "Monday Night Football" is moving to a 2-man booth next season with Tirico/Gruden. Jaws is moving into the studio. SBD has the story.

    Good move, although this is going to end up in me hating Gruden, i no it.

    I'd rather watch a game with the "mute" button on rather than listen to Gruden.

    Gruden is going to be the next Madden.

    Terrible move, Gruden is one of the worst of all-times

    Both blow if you ask me Nash, which one more you would have to ask jj or Lohshak.

    Both always state the most obvious shit ever like they are some genius.

    Monday night football switching to a 2 man booth, Jaworski is out

    BRISTOL, Conn. (AP) - "Monday Night Football" is switching to a two-man booth.
    Analyst Ron Jaworski has signed a five-year contract extension to appear on other programming on ESPN and will no longer join play-by-play announcer Mike Tirico and color commentator Jon Gruden on Monday nights, the network said Wednesday.
    Jaworski, the former Philadelphia Eagles quarterback, will work various ESPN studio shows year-round, often focusing on his specialty of breaking down video.
    "With him doing one game each week, we don't necessarily believe we were getting the best Ron Jaworski had to offer to the network," executive vice president Norby Williamson said.
    Jaworski called "Monday Night Football" games the past five seasons. Gruden, the former Raiders and Buccaneers coach, joined MNF in 2009 and agreed to a five-year extension in October. This is the first time in 15 years ESPN has used a two-person lead team on its NFL game coverage.
    "There was nothing broken about 'Monday Night Football,'" Williamson said.
    He said network executives believed Tirico and Gruden worked well as a two-man booth and there was no need to add a third person.
    "I fully expect Mike Tirico and Jon Gruden to be together for the foreseeable future," Williamson said.

    Didn't it seem like Gruden and Jaws didn't get along all the time. Seemed like from time to time they would basically be arguing about the analysis of the game. I was not surprised to read this.

    Jaws was my favorite, and I liked the liveliness of three announcers to two. I've wondered why more pro games aren't done that way. Why are they doing this?
