On Sunday, Tony Romo was in the booth for the Packers-Rams matchup in Los Angeles. The Packers would win after a late fourth-quarter defensive stop that improved Green Bay to 3-2 and dropped L.A. to 1-4.

After the game, Romo discussed some of his favorite teams to go far in the playoffs, and his selections had everyone going crazy.

“Right now, Green Bay and Minnesota are two of my favorites to come out of the NFC,” Romo said.

Of course, the Packers are just 3-2 after barely scrapping by the Rams. They have not looked like the playoff team many predicted and even lost to the Vikings in Week 4.

Many have a problem with his two selections.

“Green Bay is decent but idk about one of the favorites,” said one comment.

“neither one of em better than Detroit,” said another.

“Did Tony Romo just say he liked the Packers more than the Lions?? He’s cooked,” added a third.

“Minnesota is crazy. I don’t expect them to make it out of the 1st round. They’re getting lucky,” continued a fourth.

Of course, it’s still early in the season, and so much can happen in the coming weeks. However, it’s not crazy to say that either of those teams can advance to the playoffs.

Tony Romo Received Backlash For His Commentary As Well

There is a strong amount of NFL fans who dread when they learn Romo will be commentating on their favorite team’s game. That was no different for the Packers-Rams game

“Can we please get Tony Romo out of the booth. Hes awful,” said one comment.

“Listening to Tony Romo call a close game in which your team is playing may be harder than actually playing in the game,” added another.

Of course, he signed a 10-year deal with CBS in 2020, so he still has lots of time left in the booth.
