NEW YORK � An understated coach and an outspoken safety are adding their voices to NBC�s Sunday night NFL studio show.

The network said Wednesday that Tony Dungy and Rodney Harrison are joining �Football Night in America� as analysts.
Dungy retired from the Indianapolis Colts after this past season, capping a career that included becoming the first black coach to win a Super Bowl. Harrison announced his retirement from the New England Patriots earlier Wednesday. The hard-hitting safety was a two-time Pro Bowl pick.
Both men appeared on NBC�s Super Bowl pregame coverage earlier this year.
That Harrison promised to be �brutally honest� about friends and former teammates probably doesn�t come as a surprise. Dungy�s classy reputation might make it harder to imagine him ripping coaches and players.
�You think that because he�s such a nice guy. But he can do it subtly,� said Colts center Jeff Saturday. �I think he�ll make his point with guys he thinks are underperforming.�
Dungy proved willing to be frank on a conference call Wednesday, questioning new Bears quarterback Jay Cutler�s maturity and opining that Chicago acquired him specifically to beat the rival Green Bay Packers.
Dungy also talked about former Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick, with whom he met at a federal penitentiary in Leavenworth, Kan., last month. If he were running a team and needed a quarterback, Dungy said, �I would not be afraid of his past.�
�I think he deserves it and think if he gets a second chance, he will do well,� Dungy said. �And I think we�ll see a different Michael Vick off the field.�
Dungy left coaching to devote more time to his family and charitable work, so he doubted he�d have time for a TV gig. But NBC Sports chief Dick Ebersol assured him that the job would only require a weekend commitment, leaving Dungy free to attend his son�s high school football games on Friday nights.
Ebersol said he had come to believe that lacking a former coach in the studio was a �glaring weakness� of NBC�s pregame show. The format will also undergo other changes, he said. More time will be spent on analysis, especially of the upcoming �Sunday Night Football� game, and less on highlights.
Tiki Barber will serve as an onsite reporter at games. Cris Collinsworth had already departed the studio show to replace John Madden in the booth.
