Fox Sports media personalities talk Super Bowl 59 matchup
NEW ORLEANS (KMIZ)
Fox Sports hosts and reporters are preparing to call their second Super Bowl in three years.
The network is hosting a rematch of the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday for Super Bowl 59. The two teams met in Super Bowl 57, which Fox also broadcasted. The Chiefs won that game 38-35.
New this year will be former quarterback Tom Brady serving as the color commentator. He and play-by-play broadcaster Kevin Burkhardt will handle the game call, with reporters Erin Andrews and Tom Rinaldi on the sidelines. Burkhardt broke into football play-by-play when he was called on in an emergency to call the 2009 Texas Bowl between Missouri and Navy.
The Fox crew has some historic Super Bowl moments in New Orleans as players. Brady famously won his first title against the St. Louis Rams in 2002 on a last-second field goal. Terry Bradshaw, the former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback and Louisiana native, won his first title as part of the "Steel Curtain" dynasty 50 years ago at Tulane Stadium.
In the Chiefs current dynastic run, the team is 2-0 in Super Bowls called on Fox.
