Super Bowl 44 champ back on the call for the Saints in Week 15

The announcers list for the Week 15 slate of NFL games has been put together, per 506 Sports. This week, the New Orleans Saints will have some familiar faces on the call, as they get Jonathan Vilma, Kenny Albert, and Megan Olivi for the broadcast once again this season. This will be their third time calling a Saints game this year, as they also called the early-season  matchup with the Atlanta Falcons, and more recently the game against the Los Angeles Rams.

In recent months, this crew has been generally favorable in the eyes of NFL fans and is generally one of the positive FOX crews as well. Many have been very up and down with their opinions of Tom Brady and Kevin Burkhardt through most of the season, though the Greg Olsen and Joe Davis crew also generally does a very good job as well.

Vilma, a Saints fan-favorite and Super Bowl XLIV champion, has always had strong breakdowns of plays, including pre-snap motion and play calls after the fact, which always gives some valuable insight into the minds of coaches and players alike. Many former players do well in broadcasting, but Vilma goes above and beyond, much like Olsen does in his broadcasts as well.
