Twitter raves about Romo's broadcasting debut
Tony Romo forged an extremely successful 14-year NFL career with the Dallas Cowboys after going undrafted. It appears he'll be equally prosperous in his next venture.
Romo made his broadcasting debut for CBS Sports on Sunday - announcing the Oakland Raiders-Tennessee Titans game - and received rave reviews.

As I thought, @tonyromo is excellent in the booth. Energetic, knowledgeable, concise, likeable. And will only get better.

QBs that @TonyRomo is having a far better first half than: Big Ben, Cousins, Tom Savage, Stafford, Dalton, McCown, Glennon, Ryan.

Tony Romo correctly identified pre-snap which Titans DB Derek Carr was keying on. I like that kind of insight.

nice job by the rookie @TonyRomo calling his first game - oftentimes before the plays even happened

Romo was enthusiastic and informative in his debut performance, which was best exemplified by the below play:
