Jim Nantz's 500th Game: A Journey Through NFL History

Calling 500 NFL games! That's exactly what Jim Nantz will achieve during Sunday's matchup between the Buffalo Bills and Denver Broncos. This milestone is a huge deal, showing how dedicated Nantz is to his craft. He started his journey with CBS way back in 1988, and since then, he's seen it all – regular season games, playoffs, and even seven Super Bowls! And guess what? This Sunday, he'll be part of history again as these two teams try to make postseason memories. Nantz has called games during some truly exciting moments. Like when the Colts won the Super Bowl in 2007, or when the Peyton Manning-led Colts beat the Tom Brady-led Patriots in an epic matchup. He's even seen games end with thrilling Hail Mary passes, and he was there when the Chiefs made history by winning the Super Bowl in overtime last year. Every game has its own story, Nantz says, and he feels lucky to have been part of so many. Over his career, Nantz has worked with some amazing people in the broadcast booth. From former NFL quarterbacks like Phil Simms and Tony Romo to broadcast vets like Tim Brandt, he's had some great partners. This season, he's teamed up with sideline reporter Tracy Wolfson for the 11th time. Together, they've covered five Super Bowls, including the first one with dueling brothers (John and Jim Harbaugh) as head coaches. The Broncos and Bills both have big goals this postseason. The Broncos want their first playoff win since Super Bowl 50, which Nantz also called. And the Bills? They're on a mission to finally win their first Super Bowl. Nantz has been there for some of their heartbreaking losses, so this weekend could be another exciting game for him to call.
