The Bills ended up winning the game, 28-21, as they stopped two of Patrick Mahomes' final heaves toward the end zone in the closing seconds. And while the win was huge for Buffalo moving forward through the season, Romo took the brunt of the criticism for his call. Romo had been under scrutiny plenty of times as he transitioned from the playing field to the broadcast booth. Before Super Bowl LVIII, he addressed some of the criticism he’s received. FLASHBACK: TONY ROMO RESPONDS TO BROADCAST CRITICISM AHEAD OF SUPER BOWL TELECAST: 'IT'S JUST A NORMAL ARC OF A CAREER’ "It’s a normal arc of someone’s career," he said at the time. "Honestly, I think a lot of people were rooting against Mahomes because he’s been there. They want to see people new. "It’s just part of an arc when you do something at a very high level. I think that’s normal. Same thing happens in football. You become dominant at things, and then all of a sudden people are like, ‘OK.’ Then at the end, Tiger Woods comes back and everyone roots for you. It’s just a normal arc of a career. It’s not abnormal. It’s absolutely what’s supposed to happen."
