Broaddus interviews Tony Romo - Great listen! (http:// sblog.blogspot.com/2010/08/broaddus-interviews-tony-romo-great.html)

Here's Bryan Broaddus sitting down with Bryan Broaddus on The Training Camp Report from ESPN 103.3 in Dallas earlier this evening...

Broaddus talks with Romo - Aug 24th (http://app.quickblogcast.com/files/1/3/2/0/2/128698-120231/romo_aug24.mp3)

That was Tony Romo talking with ball with a friend folks. Just two football guys shooting the breeze! I had called into because I was ready to get into panic mode because the team is not going as hard as possible these days, but listening to Romo I was impressed with his answers. Got off the phone feeling a lot better about this team and I hope we see them play well on Saturday.

Bryan Broaddus. The man is killing it this summer with his coverage from training camp!

[SDCowboy85]

Great interview. Thanks DC! Tony on preseason: "The colts are 4-100". I wish some here understood that. :lmao2:

[TD22]

awesome interview!

thanks !

[Chocolate Lab]

Gah, we're *still* on this camp cupcake stuff even after we've come out of the gate strong every year?

I guarantee you that 90% of this comes from Galloway. "Broaddus, do we have any hittin' goin' on out there or is it still Wade's pilluh fightin'? It's amazing how he influences everyone on that station.

I saw Glazer's training camp tour of the Giants yesterday, and Tuck was talking about how much Coughlin has backed off from what he was. I wonder why.

Yep, it is really a small minded opinion. However, Galloway is synonymous with tiny brain.

Why do you think it's all on Galloway?

The Eagles had nine days straight days of two a days.

When was the last time the Cowboys ran two straight practices with pads and helmets?

There are other teams in this league pushing their players harder and they are not at the pressers saying their players are tired. That was Wade's mistake. These players are tired of being in camp which is understandable because I am tired of them being in camp.

But physically tired? They should not be physically tired at this time. Every other day they have a walk thru. They had two days off before this Chargers game and they didn't go back to work until this afternoon.

I just hope we hear they are sharp in the next few days.

[Chocolate Lab]

Yep, it is really a small minded opinion. However, Galloway is synonymous with tiny brain.

Yep.

We don't really have threads for Wade's PCs anymore, but today's was excellent IMO. He talked a lot about this very subject, including how his dad's teams never even wore full pads, ever, and obviously never hit each other at all. He coached for Bear Bryant, so it's not like he wasn't exposed to the other extreme. Bum's teams only got to AFC championship games and were only kept out of the Superbowl by those 70s Steelers.

And one thing Wade said today was that he purposely wants the team tired as they go into these preseason games. It's part of preparing them for the regular season, probably so they can play when they're fatigued during the season.

Anyway, nice interview by Broaddus of a guy who doesn't talk to the media very much.

And to DC, whose post wasn't up when I posted:

How did those two-a-days work for the Eagles their last two games of the year last year?

And yeah, when Bradie says they're tired, that's what I think he means: Fatigued, mentally as much as anything. Sick of the monotony. Just like when they told Sham they wanted a day where they didn't have to look at a coach.

[dcfanatic]

I love people talking about us beating the Eagles three times last season.

Everyone forgets they dominated the NFC East for 10 years.

Amazing.

Good stuff, DCF.:star:

That was a good PC by Wade today. I got a lot out of it. Great interview with Romo too. Two in one day. Did we win the lottery? :)

[CATCH17]

Good stuff. Only 10% of the interview was the get better every day crap.


It's rare we get a good quote from Romo these days because the stupid Dallas media takes innocent quotes and spins it any way they can.

[Chocolate Lab]

Plus a lesson in flat tires. Trifecta!

[urface59]

I love people talking about us beating the Eagles three times last season.

Everyone forgets they dominated the NFC East for 10 years.

Amazing.

Because what happened 10 years ago matters.

[urface59]

Also, they have won the NFCE 1 time in the last five years, and as you know there are only 4 teams in the division.

[Gemini Dolly]

:D Thanks for posting DC
Always enjoy hearing from Romo.

[dcfanatic]

Also, they have won the NFCE 1 time in the last five years, and as you know there are only 4 teams in the division.

So the Eagles system is now a piece of junk.

All that success isn't respected?

Get a clue.

They are always in it from year to year. We may hate them because they are a rival, but stop acting like they are the Raiders who don't know what they are doing.

[theebs]

I love people talking about us beating the Eagles three times last season.

Amazing.

they didnt dominate the east for 10 years. they havent been dominant in the division since 04.

Since gibbs, coughlin and parcells/phillips have shown up in the divsion, the eagles have basically been like everyone else.

They had that nice run two years ago that almost got them back to the superbowl but even that season was a bit of an up and downer for them.

THe eagles are good for sure, but dominant left the building in 04.

[NextGenBoys]

I'm glad they brought up the playcalling vs. execution.

Speaking of which I remember calling into your show after the Packers game DC and talking with you and Shango about this very issue.

Garrett didn't run the ball enough vs we didn't execute to make the plays that were there.

I think both sides were right.

[NextGenBoys]

On another note, there would be very little in my life that would please me than being able to sit down and talk football with Tony Romo for an hour.

I would pay my entire bank account for that...granted it's not much.

[dcfanatic]

They whipped us two out of the last three Decembers.

Good enough for me to respect them.

As clueless as I am we have been better overall in the last 5 years.

[Hostile]

So Tony Romo says the play calling in the redzone is not the problem it has been the execution.

I swear, I have not coached him to say that. I want to assure all of the people whom I have argued with over that point that I did not rig that.

Nice to hear that he feels the errors are correctable and this team is not simply getting out manned.

Once again, he admits they are not game planning, just running plays trying to get guys used to how each other work.

Tony talking as well about backside and downfield blocking and how it leads to wins.

From a pure football standpoint, this is one of the best interviews I have heard. It was a clinic in actual football talk from interviewer and player.

[dcfanatic]

As clueless as I am we have been better overall in the last 5 years.

They have three playoff wins in last five years.

You know how many we have.

They have been in the playoffs 8 out of last 10 seasons.

Us, four.

Just stop trying.

Hate them, but respect them too.

I agree! One of the BEST Tony Romo interviews I've ever heard!

[adbutcher]

Camp cupcake? Listening to Patrick Crayton interview he stated that he and the vets are trying to lobby Wade to give them some time off but Wade just winked at them and it was business as usual.

The media are such fools. The Cowboys are still in camp, one of the few teams that had a ton of twoaday practices and they still have the audacity to say camp cupcake? Wow and what is worse is some fans still believe we have a club med training camp.

[AmarilloCowboyFan]

Nice dig at T.O. in there. LOL

[baj1dallas]

But physically tired? They should not be physically tired at this time. Every other day they have a walk thru. They had two days off before this Chargers game and they didn't go back to work until this afternoon.


Why shouldn't they be tired? If you train your *** off every day, damn straight you are going to be tired. How often do you train/work out? Have you ever tried doing it for 3 straight weeks?

Maybe he is saying they are tired to press their buttons so they come out thinking "I'm not tired, I'll show him".

[CowboyDan]

Thanks for posting. This is the best Romo interview I've ever heard. Great stuff. The truth just sounds different, doesn't it?

[Kobal]

Great stuff. Thank you. :star:

[WoodysGirl]

Pretty good interview with Romo...

Not real deep, but I think what made it good was that he didn't give his standard answer for everything.

"Work harder to improve so that we can get where we wanna be."

[dmq]

Gah, we're *still* on this camp cupcake stuff even after we've come out of the gate strong every year?

I guarantee you that 90% of this comes from Galloway. "Broaddus, do we have any hittin' goin' on out there or is it still Wade's pilluh fightin'? It's amazing how he influences everyone on that station.

I saw Glazer's training camp tour of the Giants yesterday, and Tuck was talking about how much Coughlin has backed off from what he was. I wonder why.

I've been to Giant's camp several times and you never see Coughlin yelling at people anymore. I also don't think the players go at it very hard. I seem to remember Giant's camp being a little more physical a few years ago.

[BlueStar3398]

Nice dig at T.O. in there. LOL

I caught that one too! :laugh2:

[gbrittain]

I love people talking about us beating the Eagles three times last season.

Amazing.

DC...I may be missing the point, but I don't think Chocolate said anything about the last ten years.

His point is a valid one. For all the "camp cupcake" nay sayers, Dallas swept the Eagles last year.

Sure the Eagles have been better overall the last decade than the Cowboys, but was that because of a more physical camp? I don't think so. I think that is the point that some are trying to make.

If that is not the point some are trying to make we can call it the point I am trying to make.

[CATCH17]

Let the Eagles do things their way.

[SDCowboy85]

You can tell they caught it on the show too when he said it. :laugh2:

The point I was making is that the Eagles have a system in place.

And it's been pretty damn successful since Reid arrived in Philly.

CL brings up last season as an example that it didn't work for them once in the last ten seasons.

Not working one out of the last ten seasons isn't going to allow me to start saying that they don't know what they are doing and that Wade knows better than Reid about how to prepare a team for the season.

[theebs]

They whipped us two out of the last three Decembers.

Good enough for me to respect them.


wait so your initial comment was that they dominated the division for 10 years, which is completely untrue now its just that you respect them?

the eagles are well run and reid is a good coach.

But having said that, alot of what they did is like what San Diego has done since norv showed up in 07. Since norv has shown up in 07 only belichick and wade phillips have more wins.

Want to know part of that equation, playing in the afc west and having a real franchise qb.

Guess what.

Andy Reid coached against the steve spurriers/dave campos and jim fassell of the world, all of whom did not have a legitimate franchise quarterback.

As soon as gibbs/coughlin/parcells have shown up and developed legit qbs....redskins withstanding the eagles reign of whipping up the east slowed down.

Just like the chargers will when denver and kc get it figured out.

the eagles are good, but they have not dominated for 10 years.

And I would be willing to bet that if reid were doing in Dallas what he is doing in philly, you would be one of the ones trying to run him off because he hasnt won a superbowl.

[peplaw06]

I love people talking about us beating the Eagles three times last season.

Everyone forgets they dominated the NFC East for 10 years.

Amazing.They can take their NFC East trophies and put em here... :trophy:


If anything, our success against them last year means that both methods can work.

[28 Joker]

Reid is a good coach, but Parcells, Phillps, and Coughlin sure made the Cowboys and Giants consistent contenders for the division year in and year out.

Parcells arrived in 2003.

Coughlin arrived in 2004.

The next year was 2005.

Since 2005, the Eagles have won the division one time, in 2006. Frankly, Dallas' safety situation was a gift to the Eagles that year. Plus, Romo had Washington beat at Washington, and they got lucky and won.

Since 2005, the Cowboys and Giants have combined to win 4 of the last 5 division titles.

In defense of Phillips, with all the mistakes and poor play in that 2007 playoff game, if Anthony Fasano cathes a TD pass, instead of having it hit him in the facemask after going through his hands, Phillips could have been playing in the Super Bowl in 2007.

Plus, Phillps has won two of the last three NFC East Titles, and his team beat Reid's three times last year.

So being in the playoffs 8 out of the last 10 years isn't dominating the division. You can throw up all the numbers you want. The Eagles owned this division for years while we building.

And I would be done with Reid at this point. I have high standards. I would still rather have had the success the Eagles have enjoyed over his time in Philly rather than be a laughing stock who's claim to fame was being the team who hadn't won a playoff game in 113 years.

Wade was given a playoff team and moved it an inch in three full seasons.

So every day of the week I take Reid over Wade.

Now Reid is being punished for other teams not having Vince Lombardi coaching them? Like they didn't play tough teams in the playoffs and come up with wins.

Please.

[dcfanatic]

They can take their NFC East trophies and put em here... :trophy:


If anything, our success against them last year means that both methods can work.

One vs Ten. Gimme a few more seasons first and then I will consider it.

And why are we throwing out the 2007 flop and the 2008 monster disappointment?

One step forward doesn't erase two steps back in my book.

No its about you saying the eagles and reid dominated for 10 years, which is completely untrue.

Now you are saying you would take reids success without the superbowl, so wha the hell is the problem with wade? he has been here 3 years and won the division 2 times, he has the second most wins in the league next to belichick since taking over in 07.

and as far as reids team in the playoffs, You have blamed wade repeatedly for losing to the giants claiming we were the better team.

that describes Reid's entire tenure in Philadelphia. He has lost to less talented teams in nearly every post season except two, 04 and 01 and alot of them at home.

They were the team to beat for the last ten years in the NFC East.

Stop fooling yourself.

We finally did it last season. One season doesn't erase ten years even if you want it too.

They won a playoff game in 2006.

They were just in the NFC Champ game in 2008 after winning two road playoff games.

And they took the playoffs away from us in 2008.

We can't even win one road playoff game.

They were the big dog in this division for ten years.

[dcfanatic]

You challenged their way of doing things because it didn't work last season.

Oh boy. Someone is gonna cry, lol.

It's a football message board.

Man the **** up.

[peplaw06]

2008: 9-6-1... 2nd place
2009: 11-5... 2nd place

5 division titles in 10 years... all of them in the span of 6.

They've finished last more times in the past 5 years than 1st. Their "dominance" has been done for a while.

[urface59]

Oh boy. Someone is gonna cry, lol.

It's a football message board.

Man the **** up.

Oh i'm sorry :rolleyes: . I just gotta pull out my tampon real fast...

[Chocolate Lab]

I never challenged what they did. I think Reid is a very good coach.

But so what? That doesn't mean his way is the only way to do it. Marv Levy owned an entire conference, did far more than Reid has ever done, and he really did run Camp Cupcake. You heard Wade say that all the vets would bring their golf clubs to Bills camp because they knew they'd be off every afternoon.

Bill Walsh ran very light camps, too. But maybe he didn't know how to do it, either.

[peplaw06]

You challenged their way of doing things because it didn't work last season.

I was citing the example that it did work for ten years.

Didn't work in 1999, 2005, 2007 or 2009.

We can't even win one road playoff game.

They were the big dog in this division for ten years.

They are a good team, they did not dominate the division for 10 years.

they have had post season success in the wild card and divisional round for sure.

and again, if in a few years wade has taken us to a superbowl and lost and a couple of nfc championships and lost...you will be complaining about everything he does, I guarantee you would shoot down the wild card and divisional round success.

He has this season. If he fails to do it he's done.

[theebs]

:laugh1:

baltimore had a little to do with that. Dominant teams dont go 8-7-1.

If we could have been as healthy as they were in december of 08 there is a good chance with the path they took we could have made the championship game. I would have love to have had a healthy team rolling into play tavaris jackson and the slowly crumbling giants who we a few weeks earlier manhandled.

as always, in 08 when reids side of the ball was asked to win a playoff game they couldnt do it. Everytime the defense let that team down in all those years in playoff games the offense never could pull it out, the only one I can think of is the miracle 4th and 26. the rest of the time the eagles defenses won those games.

for all the gushing over reid its always been his side of the ball that has let them down, Couldnt score enough at st.louis, couldnt scored enough home against the bucs, couldnt score enough at home against carolina, couldnt counter new orleans in 06 or arizona in 08 or Dallas in 09. And most importantly they couldnt score enough when the pats scored on them a ton in the super bowl.

in the past 10 years the giants have been to the super bowl twice winning one, by your logic doesnt that trump everything the eagles have done?

your just trying to ignorantly defend you incorrect comment that the eagles have dominated for 10 years.

for all the gushing over reid its always been his side of the ball that has let them down, Couldnt score enough at st.louis, couldnt scored enough home against the bucs, couldnt score enough at home against carolina, couldnt counter new orleans in 06 or arizona in 08 or Dallas in 09. And most importantly they couldnt score enough when the pats scored on them a ton in the super bowl.
:fact:

I'm convinced that if he hadn't refused to run the ball all those years, they could have won a championship. They could've had Steven Jackson that year they took Andrews and been really deadly, but Reid was just too stubborn.

The almighty ones passed on Reggie Wayne and drafted, gulp, Freddie Mitchell.

Ouch....

westbrook was hurt the day of that panthers game, but they still had staley. Yet they just let mcnabb take a beating all day refusing to run the ball.


all their playoff losses are similar.

in the past 10 years the giants have been to the super bowl twice winning one, by your logic doesnt that trump everything the eagles have done?

Who was the team to beat on a consistent basis in the NFC East for the last 10 years?

Thank you.

baltimore had a little to do with that. Dominant teams dont go 8-7-1.

If we could have been as healthy as they were in december of 08 there is a good chance with the path they took we could have made the championship game. I would have love to have had a healthy team rolling into play tavaris jackson and the slowly crumbling giants who we a few weeks earlier manhandled.

as always, in 08 when reids side of the ball was asked to win a playoff game they couldnt do it. Everytime the defense let that team down in all those years in playoff games the offense never could pull it out, the only one I can think of is the miracle 4th and 26. the rest of the time the eagles defenses won those games.

So now Baltimore sent us home, lol.

I know you are a homer bro.

But now you sound silly.

It was Eagles vs Cowboys. Two teams.

We lost.

What the hell is all this debate in this thread about exactly?

Is someone claiming that Wade doesn't run training camp as well as Reid and therefore the Eagles have had more playoff success in the last 10 years?

I hope that's not what people are arguing about in here, because that is the most ridiculous hypothesis I've heard in years about any topic.

Thanks for the great interview.

This is the point that shreds dc's entire argument. You can't call yourselves dominant during a ten year span when a division rival has demonstrably more success than you did during the period in question. It's not really even an interesting debate.

according to zach thomas yes, he said there was no point in even going to philly that day, the team quit after the baltimore loss.

a Homer? ok.

And by the way you sound silly continually in this thread because you can never except the fact that something you said is comepletely wrong.

Its nothing new.

Thank you.

umm. Wrong again.

after the demise of the powerhouse of the eagles in 05 it has been a mix of Dallas, ny and philly for the east before and after the season started.

so umm your welcome???
