Super Bowl 53 in Atlanta is still seven months away, but former Dallas Cowboys quarterback and current CBS NFL analyst Tony Romo has already made his prediction for the big game.
Talking to Lindsay Rhodes of NFL Network, Romo explained why he thinks Aaron Rodgers' Green Bay Packers will go up against the 2017 AFC runner-up Jacksonville Jagaurs in Super Bowl 53.
"Thing about the NFL is things change pretty fast. Injuries happen, a lot of stuff happens, but, um... if I was picking right now," Romo said, "I'd probably go with Green Bay versus Jacksonville. That would be a tentative, rough guess here in the summer months."
Romo added that he thinks the signing of tight end Jimmy Graham will be huge for the Packers, and that their long-struggling secondary will "improve this year." Certainly, the Packers will need it to be better if they want to get through a loaded NFC.
The former Pro Bowler faced the Packers five times in his career, posting a 2-3 record. He and Rodgers always knew how to put on a show against another, and their showdown in the 2014 NFC Divisional Round (which the Packers won), was one of the better chapters of the Cowboys-Packers rivalry.
