Madden and Summerall was the best commentating team the NFL, maybe all of football, has seen, hands down. RIP, Coach,

I’m not really a sports ball fan, but Madden was everywhere so I have a passing familiarity with him.
Was he a great player in his day turned commenter? What all was his background?

Raiders coach way back when

Great football career. Wonder if they will bury him in his bus since he is claustrophobic?

He played football, but was sidelined by knee injuries before he got to play in the NFL. He made his bones as a coach, ultimately leading the then-Oakland Raiders to victory in Super Bowl XI as their head coach.

Many of his accomplishments listed above.

Also, one of if not the most popular football video game is named after the guy.
