starrymessenger Posted November 29, 2019 Posted November 29, 2019 Romo is great but he was clearly disappointed (which is understandable, him being a Cowboy and all). Bills left him with nothing to be thankful for.

billsfan_34 Posted November 29, 2019 Posted November 29, 2019 Romo was awful today imo- over analyzing everything then flip flops all over the place.

Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted November 29, 2019 Posted November 29, 2019 Whenever Steve Tasker broadcast a Bills game, everyone would always complain about how negative he was towards the Bills. Would be interesting to hear Cowboy fan's take on todays broadcast if they saw Romo as so pro Dallas or will they be complaining about how pro Buffalo he was. Or even when Tasker was being portrayed as negative, did fans of the other team agree? My point being fans or a respective team are not the most un biased on their perception of these types of things. 2

At the end of the game as the Bills we’re completing their curbstomping, Romo was listing his contenders. Got to about five or six teams when Nantz brought up Buffalo. Romo: “Yeah, if they keep winning people might have to start paying attention to them” Wow - the praise is OVERWHELMING. ? 1

The game I was listening to, I heard Romo say positive things...mostly about McDermott and Allen, over and over as the game went on. A LOT. Yet you pick out one thing to characterize the entire broadcast by? I know some fans are homers, but give me a break. 1
Bleeding Bills Blue Posted November 29, 2019 Posted November 29, 2019 I did remember Romo saying- this balls going to Beasley over the middle... And it ended up being a swing pass to singletery for like 10 and the first. Nice try Romo
Jerboski Posted November 29, 2019 Posted November 29, 2019 Romo was great today and easily the best In the business.... some folks here just trying to start something, he was analytical and fair to both sides... people muting their TVs, give me a break lol 2

Buddo Posted November 29, 2019 Posted November 29, 2019 I wasn't as impressed with Romo yesterday as I have been in the past. However, he did come out with enough praise for the Bills and Allen/McDermott, for me to feel he was trying to be even handed. The comment after Allen got the 1st down on the 4th and 1 was priceless - 'He just out aggressived the whole D-Line!' Part of the difficulty for him, was that there's this whole undercurrent about Garrett and Jones, and he's having to tread a fine line with that whole thing, while still trying to come up with something of interest to say about it. 2

He played his entire career at dallas and knows alot of those guys personally, is it really that odd he likes to see them do well. I'm sure he hoped Dallas would win but his commentary was fine and balanced.

Nice try Romo Was an educated guess, I think everyone believed Beasley would be the target on that play.... safe to say no other analyst would have predicted Singletary on that play either, romo was a ten year plus QB who was very good, he doesn't need to defend himself here or anywhere
papazoid Posted November 29, 2019 Posted November 29, 2019 romo is the best no one is right all the time 3
Billsfan1972 Posted November 29, 2019 Posted November 29, 2019 He was great imo. As an Ex-Dallas player, I expect him to still have an allegiance. As stated the narrative regardless in JJ & Garrett..... Oh & let's also not forget that Dallas marched the ball up & down the field much of the game & continually imploded too.

They were completely unprepared for this game at least from the Bills side. I agree completely with this. First, this was a BIG game for both teams. It should have had a playoff atmosphere to it, and Nantz and Romo were completely matter of fact. They did nothing to make the broadcast dramatic. If it had been the Patriots getting a field goal and touchdown to open the third quarter, they would have been raving about Brady and the Pats, and they would have making a big deal about how the Cowboys were fighting to come back. All they could say by the end was "I guess the Bills are for real." They completely missed the opportunity to make the broadcast interesting, and almost completely missed the opportunity to showcase the Bills. They didn't know, or didn't care to mention, how great Milano is, for example. They didn't showcase the Bills players at all as the Bills took control of the game. Everyone in my house was groggy from that big dinner, and it sounded like Nantz and Romo were sitting on the sofa with us, half paying attention to the game. 3
