Nantz is THE voice of The Masters and CBS golf for many. He's really good in the NCAAT (though I can appreciate the fun a guy like Kevin Harlan brings). But IMO, he is kind of "meh" in the NFL. Romo has been great as an analyst. He's quick witted and funny, but also does an awesome job of giving the fans and inside look intricacies and details of the play. We all, as fans, can see the general aspects of the play. Romo shows us the stuff we don't see because we don't know.

Natz should be paid up there with the lead guys at the other networks. But Romo's salary is a result of timing. MNF wanted him and CBS knew what they had...so they paid him accordingly

Yeah, I know he's been around a lot longer but Nantz is to the NFL what Fowler is to CFB. He's a competent #1 play by play guy but far from a great like Al Michaels or Keith Jackson. I'm fairly old and it's not recentism for me to say that Romo is the best football color guy of all time.
