Here’s Why Kenny Albert and Jonathan Vilma’s Call of That Wild Patriots-Raiders Ending Was Perfect

1. What I love about the call from Fox’s Kenny Albert and Jonathan Vilma on the nobody-can-believe-it-still final play of Sunday’s Patriots-Raiders game is that it wasn’t a ”good” call from a technical standpoint.

The call was messy with the announcers speaking over each other, but I mean that 100% as a compliment. That play deserved a messy call. That play deserved nothing but emotion from the booth.

The cliché “all hell broke loose” is overused, but as soon as New England running back Rhamondre Stevenson decided to lateral to teammate Jakobi Meyers, all hell did break loose, and Albert and Vilma gave us an “all hell broke loose” call.
