I'd have to say it was Gisele jumping around...................

Me too.

Outstanding job by Romo again. One of the best announcers all-time already in only just 2 years.

Agreed. Announcers to me range from neutral/annoying to shut the hell up already. Never have I actually liked one of them until now. Romo is actually somewhat entertaining.

I liked it when he said "It's genius the Rams are staying in the huddle so long so Bill can't set his defense but I think they should play faster" and right before Goff got sacked, "This is where Goff has got to stand in there", after the play "Goff got caught holding the ball too long there". Romo's fun to listen to but he says some stupid crap too
Sounded like some in these forums.

Soooo, if the announcer wasn't an ex cowboy qb, would this thread even exist? Who gives a smokin crap about the quality of the commentary?

Apparently everyone except for you. After the AFC Championship game, the only thing people were talking about was how awesome Romo was. I've never seen so many positive articles and tweets about any broadcaster, let alone a former Cowboys broadcaster.

I think my expectations were too high. I thought he was OK, but nothing special in this one.

Of course, I went into it expecting to be more entertained by Romo than the game I didn't care that much about that.
Let's put this in context...take this same game and have Buck and Aikman or Michael's and Colinsworth, do you turn the TV? Romo kept you entertained considering how awful the game actually was.

It’s funny that someine coined the phrase Rostradamus or whatever dumb name theyngave him when I’ve been saying for over a year he’s like Nostradamus and that’s not a compliment to his “predictions”. Nostradamus sat around and wrote/predicted stuff all day, he did it so much in fact that some of it was bound to come true and when it would he was credited for being right while everyone ignored the majority of times he was wrong.

Romo adds good insight into the game but this “he’s always right” and “he’s always calling the plays” is ridiculous. Sure it’s happened but more often than times he’s wrong which everyone conveniently forgets. I like how he’ll say “gotta think run on this play and this is where everyone will be coming from” but when it’s a pass, other people say “he never said it WOULD be a run” but if it was actually a run it’s “Romo called it again, he’s a genius”.

What about when he was publicly saying McVay was wrong in the 4th for accepting the penalty because it didn’t stop the clock although it would have most likely pushed NE out of FG range which was more important. Did anyone catch that or just take Tony’s word as gospel and drool over how right he was even though he wasn’t?

There were several other examples of times he was wrong with a few when he was right. Again, he adds something to the game most other announcers don’t but please stop exaggerating with how right he always is.

Commercials sucked as usual
Halftime show was trash and not worth watching as usual.
The game was a snoozefest.

Somehow they made a 14 min highlight video? Lol could've been 30 seconds.

Did enjoy Romo though.

Halftime was especially garbage....the rapper in the middle was swearing so much i thought my directv was losing signal
