Cooper Kupp mutes announcers sometimes, which means he’ll love new Peacock feature
Field Gulls Field Gulls

You ever watch a football game on TV? Pretty great, huh?

But then the other guy with the mic, the one not describing the plays but adding….color…will just randomly insult some players? He’ll go on, claiming a guy doesn’t know what he’s doing, how he clearly didn’t see his assignment, or this is what happens when you don’t prioritize offensive line in the offseason.

Well friends, if you suffer from commentator dysphoria, a remedy may be headed your way soon!

Peacock is preparing to roll out a new User Interface for games streamed on its platform – so like, a couple – that will allow fans to adjust specific audio segments.

Maybe Prime next? Maybe Prime.

NFL announcers are a bit like those new rivalry uniforms: everyone’s got an opinion and according to some fans they’re all terrible. I’m not typically in this crowd, mostly because I am amused by incompetence more often than annoyed.

But if you are in that camp, you’re not alone. NFL players don’t always appreciate the commentary either. Including our very own Cooper Kupp.

I’d listen to Kupp, that’s for sure.

The Los Angeles Chargers vs. New England Patriots is on NBC and Peacock this weekend, but the feature’s not out yet.

Until then, enjoy the Wild Card Round, with or without sound!
