Football Watching Tony Romo is insufferable anymore.

Sofa King · 12:51 PM

He doesn't do any of the stuff he did that first year. Doesn't break down the plays, doesn't play Romostradamus, etc. He just takes a ball washing angle on a few players and plays contrarian on any big plays that could go either way. He's never right on those either.

Today after a completed pass by Allen he says "And that's why they call him Mr. January!"

Who says that? Has anyone ever heard that? lol. They can't say that each of the last two years for sure after we beat them.

EDIT:

My brother just sent this link. Someone else apparently agrees with me. There's some tweets in it too.

Tony Romo tried to pay Josh Allen a compliment with a new nickname, but we’re pretty sure this one isn’t going to stick… yet.

In his young NFL career, Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen has played six NFL playoff games in January. His 3-3 record is apparently enough to earn him the title of “Mr. January,” that is, if you ask CBS color commentator Tony Romo.

To be fair, Allen does have a 106.6 passer rating, an average of over 285 yards per game, 14 touchdowns and 1 interception, but in January the thing that matters most is simple: Wins. To give Allen such a nickname while calling the first quarter of the Wild Card game between the Dolphins and Bills was probably a bit of a leap.

Nicknames used to mean something! They were earned!

Of course, if what he meant was that Allen has yet to get his team to February, well, that’s technically true.

Fans were not a fan of this nickname and took to Twitter to roast Romo for naming him that.

Fans roast Tony Romo for giving Josh Allen the nickname of “Mr. January”
Technically the truth fits here:
Maybe this will be the year for Allen and the Bills:
Have you ever tried to get something to catch on? It’s hard work!
Stop trying to make Mr. January happen!
As far as a better candidate for the title, right now it’s probably Patrick Mahomes. Mahomes is 7-2 compared to Allen’s 3-3 in January playoff games.
Remember, Romo’s playing career only consisted of two playoff wins, so while he’s one of the smartest and more entertaining color commentators, his personal playoff experience isn’t the most expansive.
That in mind, maybe we can cut him some slack for the nickname.

He's already worse than Joe Buck somehow.

Never thought I'd say that. Just impressive what a queermo blabber mouth he is.

All the fun stuff that Romo brought to the table his first year has been eradicated.

Now he is just insufferable and a fanboy.

Don't you think that just maybe you really want the Bills to get eliminated and Josh Allen does amazing shit and you don't want to see it and you don't want to hear about it so when he ball-washes Allen it grates on your nerves?

Because he does the same thing for Mahomes.

I would rather guys like Romo and Collinsworth than 99% of the trash heap that is NFL commentators. Yeah no thanks OP.

ThaVirus · 01-15-2023, 12:51 PM

I’ve read that they (meaning the CBS producers, I guess) actually told him to tone it down on the Romostradamus stuff.

Pepe Silvia · 01-15-2023, 12:51 PM

They refuse to admit Allen’s flaws.

I knew someone would bring this up. The problem is I hate him during Chiefs games too. He says the exact same shit every single week. He's Collinsworth which even shittier takes but a less annoying voice.

I used to like both Romo and Collinsworth. They both are insufferable now. Collinsworth thinks every player he comments on is the best in the NFL. It gets old.

I wondered about this. People loved it so it only makes sense that CBS would take it away.

Now here's a guy....

I wish he’d just go to the sidelines and blow Allen at this point and get it over with…

It's hilarious that you think announcers should talk about players' flaws instead of hyping them up.

They announce the game and try to highlight things people should be excited to watch. To make money.

If you want to talk about flaws there are shows all week that will do this for you.
