Admittedly, he will defer to his partner and ask for clarifying questions rather than always pretend like he is in the know. I'd have to watch a game again to point out specific examples, but it feels as if he's slowly becoming a caricature of himself.
I could be off base, but I suspect it's the network's coaching on how he should be announcing, versus his more natural delivery when he started. He was like Nostradamus back then, predicting plays left and right, and getting all excited and ahead of himself.
