CBS's Romo-Nantz Booth Quietly Survives Scrutiny With a Small Win

CBS’s AFC Championship broadcast by Jim Nantz and Tony Romo was largely unremarkable—a modest improvement over their recent missteps—featuring moments of back-slapping rather than deep analysis and a confusing sequence on a pivotal fumble/grounding call with Gene Steratore. With Romo’s hefty contract looming and reports that CBS might promote Ian Eagle and J.J.

Sunday’s performance wasn’t great, but it wasn’t disastrous—a quiet win for CBS amid high scrutiny.
