Romo knows football, no question about it. Once he got in the booth I had a newfound respect for him. Some people hate him, but I think he provides a tremendous amount of value to the broadcast. There are several others on TV or YT who have a deep knowledge for the game and they're not just talking heads. |
I do wish he went back to his 1st season ways of really dissecting plays presnap. Loved listening to him talk about what he saw the defense was doing and how he would adjust and where the ball would go.
seems they told him to dumb it down some and he doesnt do it as much.
