Interest just isn’t there.

I'll watch every superbowl unless the stealers are in it. Lol

Roger Staubach vs. Terry Bradshaw (the best Super Bowl and best collection of talent ever assembled in a Super Bowl)
John Elway vs. Brett Favre
Troy Aikman vs. Jim Kelly
Joe Montana vs. Dan Marino

We'll see if the Patrick Mahomes vs. Tom Brady ranks with the above quarterback battles.

Tony Romo looks ahead to Super Bowl LV: One of the greatest matchups in sports history

CBS Sports' Tony Romo previewed Super Bowl LV on a conference call Thursday and he said the matchup between Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes is one of the greatest in sports history.

In fact, CBS Sports' Tony Romo, who will be part of the broadcast, believes it's one of the greatest matchups in sports history.

“This is going to be one of the great matchups in sports history,” he said on a media conference call Thursday. “This is what you talk about with your friends. Could you imagine if Michael Jordan got his team to the Finals against LeBron — who is becoming the face of the league? We’re getting that in this Super Bowl.”

“[Mahomes] is the only kid that is going to be in the discussion,” he said. “This is the matchup people will be talking about 25 to 50 years from now. As a football fan, this is as good as it gets. This one is really special.”

Give me Staubach vs. Bradshaw, but I do agree with his Jordan vs. James analogy as far as that aspect of the matchup.

I'm the opposite. I won't watch any Super Bowl that doesn't have Dallas in it. Needless to say, I haven't seen a Super Bowl in a long time.

I like Romo in the booth overall and there’s no question he has broadcasting talent. BUT...hate to say it- for me he talks TOO much. I just want to watch the game. I don’t need every single play pre-diagnosed in granular detail. I actually prefer Troy to Romo because he’s calmer and more measured. But it’s all just personal taste I guess.

To each there own, I can get your view....

Honestly my favorite was when I was a kid and my dad would put the local broadcast on and mute the tv....that’s the best

I used to do that too. I remember the great Cowboys broadcaster Frank Glieber and later Verne Lundquist before he became a National broadcaster for CBS. Both were greatness.

I hope they get to a point with streaming where we can do it in other markets too....I mean it has to be possible right?

Lol just such a big game I don't miss superbowls. It's what the season is about ya know. To each their own though i get it

Of course the typical romo no superbowl bs comments in here.

Jerrys fault not romos. Maybe if he had a team around him more than 2-3 decent ones in his career he could've maybe made it to a sb.

Man, that is bizarre...imo.

I’d think if you love football...not just the Cowboys, but the actual game....you'd watch this one.
But to each his own!

id never blame anyone.
Im watching it, but I have less interest in pro sports in general these last few years

I love how excited and glowing Tony gets when he discusses Brady.

Probably because he never could beat him.

Tony is a great announcer. He gets pumped up talking about great players like Maholmes, Rogers and Brady. He even talks glowingly about Dak.

The only time he was down and out was when Dak got injured.

Nah, the NFL is far less popular than it was a decade ago.

The only reason I have any interest in the game is because of Brady. Chiefs are boring to me, and I couldn't have stood watching Rodgers whine and pout his way through the SB.

Me too. I can take it or leave it. There's something missing. Maybe it's the intense rivalry. Everyone is so buddy, buddy now. Not that that's a bad thing. But the "I can't stand the other team" gave the games an intensity that I just don't see today.

But I'm musing. I don't know what it is. Maybe I'm just not caring as much because I'm older. It used to hurt me when the Cowboys lost. Now? Eh! What's coming on after the game.

Captain-Crash · Jan 30, 2021

in before the other dak groupies get in, "dak's better than both of them" lmao. gimp.

Yep and Romo gets too excited. Can’t stand the oohs and ahhs before big plays.

What kept the Dallas D off the field that day was Barber. Except Opie decided to run Barber every play in the second quarter instead of giving Julius Jones the ball and spell the workhorse.

Barber was done in the second half and that is what put the Dallas D on the field to lose the game.

Fight the good fight doesn't count here. Dallas was the better team. Garrett was the OC who scuttled that game.

What was the head coach doing in the second half, playing pocket billiards?

I've heard a bunch of people say this but it's not true at all. They're basing it off US viewership ratings being down but that's extremely misleading because worldwide viewership and streaming are both way up.

Are you talking about Wade Phillips who was the defensive coach and Opie was the OC and asst head coach?

So many toss out bromides as empirical facts. Sometimes offensive hide the defensive deficiencies.

Subtract the running game from the offense and Dallas was done.
