Tony Romo calls the game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills. Of course, with two of the most high-powered teams in the NFL, this will likely be one of the most watched non-primetime games of the week.
Unfortunately for Romo, many people just heard his absolute blunder when talking about Bills wide receiver Amari Cooper.
“Wonderful job by Brandon Beane to go out in the offseason and get a No. 1 receiver,” Romo said.

The comment sounds normal until you remember that Buffalo traded for Cooper during the season and wasn’t a free-agent signing.
Romo’s words immediately caught the attention of many, who took to social media to let everyone know about them.

Tony Romo “that’s why they went out in the offseason to get a number 1” referring to Cooper. He was traded for 3 weeks ago. Is there a more insufferable commentator than Romo?

Strike one Tony Romo: they got Cooper just a few weeks ago and strike two: they told Diggs to piss off, they didn't lose anything.

What is Tony Romo talking about? He's saying that Bills GM in the offseason got a #1 WR?

Cooper was traded for near the trade deadline. Lack of research by Romo there
Great start for Tony Romo… the Bills did NOT go out in the offseason and acquire Amari Cooper to replace Stefon Diggs pic.twitter.com/bPtzuu9JYj

Cowboys Fans Want Tony Romo Back
The Cowboys have been so dysfunctional this year that they want former quarterback and current broadcaster Tony Romo back out on the field.
“ROMO GO IN!” read a fan sign at the Cowboys vs. Eagles game last week.
With Romo in the booth, he started to do some fake stretches with some groans added in.
