Tony Romo, One Week in: Best Commentator in the NFL

Half joking, but seriously. This dude is a football genius. I was always meh on him as a quarterback, but dude knows the game. For the fan that likes to delve into scheme and the chess match that is football, I could listen to this every game.

Romo came off as a bit of a douche early on but I came to really like him. Went from a guy accused of not caring about the game to one of the gutsiest players in the league
Romo was terribly under appreciated here. He drug very shitterrible cow**** teams to respectibility. Naturally when he's done they get a line.

Can't be as bad as whatever chick they had on with Matthew Berry for LeBatard. She has to win the shittiest on air personality in the history of ESPN

Hell, I'd take Bryant Gumbel in the early NFL Network days over Ryan without question.
Dennis Miller and Rush Limbaugh disagree.

Sounds like they didn't have a play by play guy? Why would you do that to two rookies?

He was a great quarterback too despite what some said about him. Had to deal with a bad team around him for virtually his entire career and made them respectable. Hardly surprising he'd be good at this too.

I thought Romo did good. Obviously has a better feel for the game than the majority of commentators. Didnt care one lick about him as a player but hes good in the booth.

After the Titans got to within 3 (the last points they scored) he said Carr/Raiders were going to open up the passing a bit and go for the kill on this drive. They did. He was spot on on almost everything.

Rex on the other hand was horrible. I hated listening to him and that lady. Couldnt finish the game.

One thing McNabb said on the radio that made some sense was he needs to tell the audience WHY that play is coming not just that it is.

It wasn't great, but I think it was much better than Bill Walsh's time in the booth. That guy was incapable of saying anything that wasn't self adulating. Worst broadcast I've ever experienced.

It was truly awkward when they had Phil Simms interview him pregame.

What was CBS thinking??

I thought this too, maybe some of the commentators could do that too but it might ruin the entertainment value so they don't.

But wow, was he prophetic, pretty impressive to watch. Explains why he was so into the fantasy (gambling imo), and also why Goodell didn't want him to be involved. The players have an inside edge on the knowledge stuff.

This, and I think he will get to that point soon.

Fans watching his games are in for a whole new level of education that we haven't seen in broadcasting. It might make me start turning on the volume again.

Raising the level of broadcasting, hopefully the rest can match it, it'll make for a better product. Rather than telling terrible human interest pieces about "diversity."

I'm looking at you Sergio Dipp.

After Siemian ran the ball near the goal line......Ryan literally said....

"Was that Vick out there? Oh....it's Trevor Siemian."

That was a girl? That explains it. I kept thinking, "this dude has a really annoying squeaky voice, how the hell did he get a job announcing games". Now I know why. You can suck as long as you're helping diversity.
