Al Michaels labeled criticism of his and Tony Dungy’s game broadcast of the Jaguars’ incredible comeback playoff win over the Chargers Saturday by describing it as “internet compost!”

Michaels said he was “very happy” and is not going to do a game for “over the top YouTube hits.”

“A lot of folks who understand this industry are annoyed with the over-the-top yelling that makes a game sound like an offshoot of talk radio,” Michaels texted The Post. “I’m in that corner, but there are others who obviously think otherwise.”

Michaels and I texted on Sunday as he flew back on a private jet from Jacksonville to his Los Angeles home. Here’s the full exchange.
