Former Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo has been getting flak for his play-calling this season. He was a broadcasting wizard when he hung up his cleats, reading defenses and offering nuanced takes. Back then, everyone thought he had a cheat code for the playbook, calling exact plays before a snap.However, 2025 has been less of a balanced take approach and more of fanboying over a particular team, mainly the Chiefs. After making a lopsided Thanksgiving commentating appearance during the Chiefs-Cowboys game, former Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Emmanuel Acho criticized Romo on X, calling out his work ethic."When you first retire, it’s easier,” Acho explained. “You can live off the reps from your playing life... As years go by, you lose familiarity with players in the league and new coordinators arise, then you have to put in the work.""If you don’t put in the work (watching countless hours of film, talking to current players, tracking the coaching landscape) you revert to stating the obvious or making jokes all broadcast. Network execs don’t make a change because ratings aren’t impacted by bad broadcasters. But how could they be? We were never watching for them," Acho added.Acho also compared an NFL game analyst to a waiter, saying they can enhance an experience, but are not the mainstay of a dining experience.For fans who once crowned Romo a prophet, they’re now asking if the booth drama needs concussion protocol, too.Also read: "He's insufferable," "Fire him": NFL fans accuse Tony Romo of one-sided commentary favoring Chiefs during Thanksgiving game vs. CowboysAlso read: "He is the worst" - NFL fans want Tony Romo fired from broadcasting for "bias" towards Chiefs during AFC title gameCalls mount by fans to fire Tony RomoThe noise to fire CBS' Tony Romo is getting louder by the day.
