I said this in an earlier review from the original era, but every time these early-era SNL episodes bash Johnny Carson as a Tonight Show host, I always find myself saying “They thought The Tonight Show was lousy THEN? Those are considered legendary years now. Very mean-spirited towards Johnny Carson too. Is this a sister commercial to “The Ed McMahon School of Laughing”? Not sure what to call this segment (as you can tell by my confusing title), but this was a fun brief bit with Madden busting through the screen to hype up the show in a football game-esque manner.Īrt Fern (JOP) on how to succeed the Johnny Carson way- steal characters Host bursts though opening credits a la Lite Beer commercial An overall good opening with a funny dark vibe to it. The reveal of one of the players having hanged himself in the background was pulled off well. Good bit with Tim as an angry coach having Tony deported. Tony’s pretty funny as the foreign kicker. Host gives postgame report from Super Bowl XVI loser Bengals’ locker room Overall, it's a take your pick from the Raiders secondary when it comes to their last dynamic player.Segments are rated on a scale of 1-5 stars

Stanford Routt has the speed to stick with most receivers and is good in man coverage.Ĭhris Johnson (No, the TItans running back wasn't traded and he hasn't changed positions) has plenty of speed to burn, but like Van Dyke, needs to be better in coverage.įinally, there is Michael Huff, who has the speed to cover up mistakes that these young burners will surely make. Rookie Demarcus Van Dyke is the fastest of them all, and if he can develop some coverage skills, he could be a good Madden player. In Oakland's secondary, there is an abundance of players who are flat-out burners. If there's one thing the Raiders front office does well, it's stockpile speed.
