After awaiting the CBS Sports NFL folk to have their yearly seminar, the Columbia Broadcasting System (CBS) disclosed their announce teams for the 2016 season on Tuesday. Let's take a look.
NFL on CBS Schedule
1. Jim Nantz/Phil Simms//Tracy Wolfson (lead; Thursday Night Football team)
2. Ian Eagle, Dan Fouts//Evan Washburn
3. Greg Gumbel/Trent Green//Jamie Erdahl
4. Kevin Harlan/Rich Gannon
5. Spero Dedes/Solomon Wilcots
6. Andrew Catalon/Steve Beuerlein/Steve Tasker
7. Tom McCarthy/Adam Archuelta
8. Carter Blackburn/Chris Simms (Brad Nessler will work select games too)

NOTE: When Nantz, Simms, Wolfson don't work a select Sunday. The remaining 7 crews move up one: Eagle-Fouts are lead, Gumbel-Green are #2, Harlan-Gannon #3, Dedes-Wilcots #4, Catalon-Beuerlein-Tasker are #5, McCarthy-Archuelta #6, and Blackburn/Nessler-Simms #7.
Not a lot of changes, here. The big one to dial up is Brian Anderson, who worked NFL on CBS games the past few seasons. Anderson will no longer work NFL games. Probably because his of Turner Sports and Brewers commitments. Also, Nessler, coming over from ESPN, will work some games too.

Nessler, of course, will become the SEC on CBS voice in 2017, taking over for Verne Lundquist (who will remain with the network in a more-reduced role). CBS will use reporters like Chris Fischer, Dana Jacobson, to work with the #4 through #8 teams throught the season.
The studio team remains intact with host James Brown, analysts Bill Cowher, Bart Scott, Tony Gonzalez, Boomer Esiasion, and insider Jason La Canfora.
