Eric Collins Praised by NFL World for Very Awesome Call of Panthers-Dolphins Game

Eric Collins Panthers NFL Dolphins NFL World Hornets Bryce Young Charlotte Hornets

Those who tuned into the Carolina Panthers-Miami Dolphins game on Sunday were in for a real treat, with Hornets play-by-play man Eric Collins lending his voice to the Week 5 matchup.

In his NFL broadcasting debut, Collins made an already exciting game between the Panthers and Dolphins even more thrilling with his loud, out-of-his-seat hoots and cheering of even the most standard, run-of-the-mill football plays. Collins, who has long endeared himself to sports fans in Carolina as the Hornets' easily excitable commentator, worked with the much more stoic Mark Schlereth in the Fox Sports booth on Sunday, and his animated passion was on full display.

Take a listen to some of these electric calls from the game:

A true national treasure. Never change, Eric Collins.

The Panthers came back from down 17-0 to beat the Dolphins, 27-24, thanks to a late, game-winning touchdown drive led by Bryce Young.
