He was the voice of the AFC when I was I was a kid. You knew it was a big game when Enberg and Merlin Olsen were on the call.  Sad to hear of this news.

He and Merlin Olson were magical together. A voice from my childhood and life growing up watching the real NFL, not the crap we get today.

 

Damn it all of the great ones are old and / or dying.

 

RIP Legend

Pretty sure this guy called a lot of classic SOJ games.  Haunting cries of "Oh My" reverberate in every Jet fan's head over 30.  RIP

Merlin Olsen despite being on NBC's top NFL announcing team with Enberg practically disappeared.

He was also amazing at college basketball back in the day (below is him with Al Maguire - another great)

 

 

absolutely, one of the reasons I became a huge Heels fan was b/c they were on TV almost every week and back in the 80s NBC had games w/ him and Al McGuire calling most of them.  I think he called the Heels final four regional run in 2000 as well but for CBS.
