Big Turk Posted October 22, 2018 Posted October 22, 2018 (edited) Why would he leave a multi mlion dollar cushy booth job to to work 16 hours a day 7 days a week? What makes you think he would be good at it. Diagnosing a play is one thing, calling a play based on a guess of what will work against a D is totally another. McDermott isn't going anywhere any time soon. Buckle up buttercup its going to be a rough 9 remaining games this year. But they knew it was coming and kind of let us know too with thinly veiled comments numerous timws. Edited October 22, 2018 by matter2003

I say we sign Kelly as HC, Thurman as OC, Bruce as DC and Tasker as ST. We’d be pretty awesome! not sure any of those four is coaching material, with all due respect to them as players
CuddyDark Posted October 22, 2018 Posted October 22, 2018 I could see their "process" meaning stability next year so close to zero changes.
thebandit27 Posted October 22, 2018 Posted October 22, 2018 I like Romo, but I have no idea why he'd leave the booth to coach. He can write his own paycheck and work stress-free for as long as he wants.
jr1 Posted October 22, 2018 Posted October 22, 2018 Tony has the perfect life. He's not going to stand outside in Buffalo for 3 hours in Nov/Dec

Let's make it happen. 11 minutes ago, OldTimeAFLGuy said: ...could not be better stated.......Mooch, Cowher, Billick, etc all have stayed in the booth or studio for the very same reason..... None of those guys were players who were basically forced into retirement, one year away from the game, and possibly missing "they guys". If any of them want to get back amongst it, it would be Romo. 1

He has it easy as a broadcaster by comparison with plenty of time for his family and to pursue his passion for playing golf.
row_33 Posted October 22, 2018 Posted October 22, 2018 it's pretty easy in the booth second guessing everything that goes wrong coaching means sitting in meetings 18 hours a day, not a lifestyle embraced by many

Romo out-coached Garrett at the end of the Cowboys game last night. Making the proper calls from the booth on what they should do, and then watching Garrett screw it up. Git'r'dun. I don't want Tony as OC. He has no play calling experience. QB coach/HC. Hires a real young OC and a DC, and then he runs the team from the top making the "correct" coaching decisions.

There isn't a dollar figure that would get Romo to leave a job where he works 2-3 days a week and gets paid almost as much as a coach anyhow, especially in Buffalo. Cowher has turned down the Bills multiple times And you know this how?

Work smarter, not harder. 1

Cowher has turned down the Bills multiple times Romo might make a million a year (it was reported CBS was going to pay Cutler 450k to be on their #2 team). This seems about right as Al Michaels is reported to make 5 million a year. Either way, Romo is getting paid a fraction of what the worst paid HC in the NFL makes. Edited October 22, 2018 by Mr. WEO

He will get a big bump when he renegotiates. If he re-signs with CBS, his agent will likely put him on the same contract cycle as Chris Collinsworth. I still enjoy Chris & Al but I'm pretty sure when they retire it'll be Tirico/Romo. Edited October 22, 2018 by 416BillsFan

If Collinsworth weren't firmly entrenched in that SNF gig, that would go to Romo in a heartbeat. I don't know one person that doesn't love listening to Romo call a game.
