Tony Romo said the Patriots are ‘DTF’

Tony Romo used a very interesting acronym to describe the New England Patriots during the team’s Week 10 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Romo and play-by-play announcer Jim Nantz were on the CBS call for Sunday’s game between the Patriots and Buccaneers at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Fla. With the score tied 7-7 midway through the second quarter, Romo began praising the Patriots for being fundamentally sound. He described Mike Vrabel’s team as “DTF.”

Most fans understand “DTF” to mean something that has absolutely nothing to do with football. What Romo was referring to, however, was details, toughness and the ability to finish.

“This team is DTF, Jim. The Patriots … details, toughness and they finish,” Romo said.
