The NFL season kicks off this week, which means it is time to look at the top storylines for what is the most popular programming in American TV history.
1️⃣ How will Jim Nantz and Tony Romo sound?
The crew that has the Super Bowl always receives extra scrutiny. CBS will broadcast the game from Las Vegas in February, putting Nantz and Romo under the glare of the most watched event of the year.
It is kind of amazing that in their seventh season together they are the longest-tenured team at one network. Since Romo shot out of a cannon as the biggest NFL TV analyst sensation since John Madden, earning him praise and a 10-year, $180 million contract, he and Nantz have gone in the wrong direction. Lack of preparation from Romo and chemistry issues with Nantz have made the big-money crew a question mark.
