The final game of the 2012 NFL Playoff Wild Card Weekend will see the Pittsburgh Steelers travel to Sports Authority Field to take on the Denver Broncos, and a crew very familiar with the Broncos will be in the announce booth:

Lindsay Jones Jim Nantz and Phil Simms will call the Broncos-Steelers game for CBS. Four straight games for Broncos w/ that crew (who also called GB game)

Jim Nantz and Phil Simms are CBS's No. 1 announce team, and in recent weeks have apparently been on the Broncos beat. Unfortunately for Broncos fans, Denver keeps losing with Nantz and Simms calling the game, and their sheer presence seems to be getting in some Broncos' fans heads.
It is much more likely Pittsburgh's stout defense and playoff experience will be the difference between a victory or defeat Sunday afternoon, but it appears you can now add "game announcers" to the ever-growing list of reasons why the Steelers should emerge victorious from their wild card weekend matchup.
