If Tony Romo the NFL analyst is indeed a work in progress, as CBS Sports boss Sean McManus likes to say, the former Cowboys quarterback someday just may be worthy of mention in the same sentence as John Madden.
Admittedly, I thought Colleyville's Lance Barrow, CBS' lead golf producer and former lead NFL producer, was delusional when he mentioned Romo and Madden in the same breath at a Colonial event back in May. But Barrow, who once worked at CBS with Madden, may have been on to something.
After regional broadcasts the first two weeks of the season, Romo made his national debut alongside Jim Nantz at Sunday's Cincinnati Bengals-Green Bay Packers game.
