Tony Romo got ripped for thinking Marcus Mariota should replace Jayden Daniels before Hail Mary miracle
Tony Romo might want this one back like he did a few weeks ago when he referred to the Washington Commanders by their old name.
This time, it was what he said in another Commanders game: before Jayden Daniels threw a miracle Hail Mary to beat the Chicago Bears, Romo had this to say on the air: “I might bring in [Marcus] Mariota because [Daniels’] ball doesn’t have quite the velocity he’s had in the previous weeks because of the rib injury.”
Whoops! Daniels’ throw had the velocity and distance, and here we are. Fans had a lot to say on this one. Here’s a sampling:

The best part of that entire sequence was Romo saying they should put in Mariota for the Hail Mary hahahaha

Tony Romo was saying they should maybe bring in Mariota to get the ball there, and then Jayden Daniels threw it 65 yards in the air. pic.twitter.com/guKiAXay15
