Tony Romo is a horrible football announcer

[Sewa]

He just piled stupid comments on top of stupid comments the whole game. He pushed me to turn the volume off. I hope CBS is smart enough not to make him their top announcer next season.

The Fox team of Buck and Aikman were head and shoulders better. I’m not a fan of this team but they were in a different league than the CBS team.

1. He's actually ranked as one of the best color analysts.

He frequently, because of his experience as a player, anticipates the next play call, and quite often he's right.

[RockRaven]

2. I'm not a big fan of Nantz and Romo, but I think Joe Buck is lousy most of the time, so

the team of him and Aikman are about at the same level, overall. Below those two pairs is fifty feet of crap, then there is Al Michaels and Chris Colinsworth. Can't stand those guys.

3. I always turn the sound off when he is

announcing, not only the stupid comments but he sounds like he has gravel in his throat, He is no Troy Aikman thats for sure.

4. Romo Is Great Caught The Play Screen Left Back Went Right

Experience.

5. I think the nice folks at CBS disagree with you ...

He recently signed a 10 yr $180 million contract. A decent pay raise from the $4 million/yr he was earning.

But ... to each his own

[BlueJac]

6. I muted him a few times during the game.

Over analyzing is what he does.

10. Agree..

7. I think Romo is fine, BUT...

... I was surprised by his commentary at the end of regulation during the AFC Championship game.

He talked as if it was a foregone conclusion that the Chiefs would score a TD to go ahead, saying things like, "I would run to the 1-yard line on this next play." (I'm paraphrasing, and the implication from Romo was that the Chiefs would continue to run out the clock before they went ahead that way.)

I yelled at the TV screen, "That's presuming that the Bengals cooperate, Romo!"

[Sewa]

11. Then to top off that nonsense

Romo said the Bengals should think about just letting KC score, so they would have enough time to mount a drive. That’s when I turned down the sound for the second time.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

12. My brother repeated it, saying that KC...

... was otherwise going to run out the clock as revenge for what happened during their earlier game in Cincinnati.

So I was apparently damned to hear that kind of talk, one way or another.

It definitely wasn't looking good for the Bengals at that point, but c'mon! Almost nothing is inevitable in the NFL.

8. He's an idiot. Never has anything interesting to say.

And I can’t stand the sound of his voice. He needs to clear his throat or use a lozenge or something. I wanna puke when I hear his phlegmy voice.

[Auggie]

9. Totally agree
