And it's been proven already that fans don't like this in the long-run.
Everyone is excited now but this is the same shite that happened years ago with Bill Walsh...and he was a hit for the first few months and then fans got tired of being told what the play was before it happened.
Fans like to be surprised, organic entertainment or guess themselves (armchair QB) - not be told everything...or over-explanations about why a play worked that carry over into the next play about shite only people who spent their life in the NFL care about.
Walsh eventually got fired...he was too smart and too in depth and told people the plays before hand. Fans were basically complaining, dude just let me watch some fricking football.
We will see now with Romo if fans have changed.
Gary Danielson is the best color commentator in CFB and he diagnoses plays and sometimes predicts them

But Danielson is well spoken, and just has a better on air presence.
Romo’s voice isn’t great, he doesn’t speak with confidence, and he isn’t particularly well spoken.
I also agree that the whole predicting plays before they happen doesn’t really add anything to the viewing experience.

Then you never heard Walsh.
Gary Danielson diagnosing plays is like Elmer Fudd compared to Bill Walsh diagnosing plays.
One is fan-centric - one is NFL head coach-centric.
People like Danielson because he's folksy and doesn't really go into any real depth...he's mostly pom-pom SEC guy.
