CBS Officially Fires Tony Romo Over Uncontrolled Comments During Bills vs Steelers Game
In a bombshell move that has stunned NFL fans across the country, CBS has reportedly fired Tony Romo following his controversial, emotionally charged commentary during the Week 13 matchup between the Buffalo Bills and Pittsburgh Steelers.
What happened?
The game, which ended in a 26-7 blowout victory for the Bills at Acrisure Stadium, was expected to be a thrilling clash. But instead of a quarterback duel, viewers witnessed a one-sided affair—and Tony Romo didn’t hold back.
Throughout the live broadcast, Romo grew increasingly frustrated with the Steelers’ offensive performance. But what drew real backlash were the sarcastic, borderline disrespectful remarks he made toward several Bills players, implying that the team's success was more about Pittsburgh's failure than Buffalo's skill.
Some of the most controversial comments included:
-
"This isn’t a real offense. It’s just Josh Allen playing playground football."
"Even a high school team would embarrass this Steelers defense today."
"Josh Allen is out there with 10 guys just going for a jog."
Bills players fire back
Several Bills players were visibly upset after the game when asked about Romo’s words. One player told ESPN:
“We play with heart. To have a former player mock our effort on national television? That’s flat-out disrespectful.”

According to insider sources, CBS received hundreds of complaints from Bills fans within hours of the broadcast, pushing executives to hold an emergency meeting to address the situation.
CBS pulls the plug?
While CBS has not yet issued an official press release, a reliable source from SportsMediaWatch confirmed that Tony Romo will not appear on any remaining NFL broadcasts this season, and that “contract termination discussions are underway.”
The reaction from NFL fans has been sharply divided. While some praised Romo for his honesty and unfiltered commentary, others blasted him for crossing the line into mockery, especially after he described Buffalo’s offense as “amateurish” during a crucial third-quarter drive.
Top 3 most criticized comments from Tony Romo during the broadcast:
-
“I don’t know if this is the NFL or a JV scrimmage.”
“There’s no offense on one side, and only one player on the other.”
“Steelers? They’re just sleepwalking. Bills? They’re watching Allen work.”
Fanbase Reactions: Chaos Online
The hashtag #FireTonyRomo trended across the U.S. on X (formerly Twitter) just four hours after the game, with Bills fans demanding action. Ironically, Steelers fans were cheering him on, saying he was “just saying what we’ve all been thinking.”
