Romo: A Little Play by Play

[jobberone]

While you can compare QB stats across eras I'm not certain they mean what's being said here.

Frustration is followed by resentment then finally anger.

[anava]

What drives me nuts is people who say coaching doesn't matter. While I wish Romo had his own persona he doesn't and he hugely mocks his head coaches. When Parcells was here he had good PC and then ho hum with Wade and now robotic with Garrett. I want a confident cocky coach and watch Romo go.

LOL Really? The receivers are losing tust in Romo? I think you have it the other way around. These WR's with Witten as an exception have played lousy all year, they run wrong routes, they quit on routes etc. Dez is starting to come along. The O-L is absolutely the worst thing I have ever seen. Put Tom Brady, Manning whoever you want back there and they will struggle. The biggest problem is Jason Garrett and our O-Line. His plays are a bit to complex for the current personnel, including snap counts, audibles and routes or we have the dumbest players in the league.

FYI- Watch the Opening Drive tonight in The ND-USC game. Let me see us a run a up-tempo offense LIKE THAT and snap the ball with 17 seconds on the playclock instead of WITH ONE CHAOTIC second Left.

WATCH THE DRIVE, THEN THINK ABOUT IT.

Perhaps that had something to do with good pass protection and an effective running game (which opened things up for play-action passes).

Nah, that couldn't have had anything to do with it. Carry on with your agenda.

Stupid idea.

And if you think this is a good idea, no explanation of why it's stupid will help.

Stats are almost useless in that scenario, in fact they are becoming nauseating to me because we haven't won diddly...

Here are some interesting "Stats" to chew on:

Last week we had a QB who threw 50 times and got 1 td and barely crossed 300 yards.....

This week nearly 450 yds in 62 passing attempts and three measly TDs passing....

RG III puts up 4 TD's with far less attempts (30)...

[View Full Quote]Other QBs are putting up 4, 5, 6 Tds a game...that's NFL 2012 football. On the bright side...Witten is on pace to break the receptions record for a TE...but still probably won't pass 1,000 yds. And before someone says "3 tds SHOULD be enough" let's remember that everyone in the NFL gets into these shootouts...even Wade's vaunted defense (chuckle chuckle) was getting it's butt kicked by the Lions just before the Dallas game but the Texans found a way to score and win...with the help of the refs of course....but they did it.

Tony "Small ball" Romo.

After his wretched first half I just sat there knowing he was gonna bring it the second half...just not quite all the way...and that's exactly what happened...the man is like clockwork.

Dude you sound like my NY Giants Fan/Friends. Seriously you are delusional. So it's Tony Romo's fault he was sacked 7 times by the Browns, hurried 24 times, and knockdown 15 times? After all that he hits Dez for the game winner but he sucks? LOL, you really are pathetic. We have No line, No running game and a struggling OC who has the whole team jumping offsides and running the wrong routes and you create a thread like that? Really? It really is comical. BTW 3 touchdowns is not "measley" on any week, on any team in the NFL.

Do these too

Don't have the other games. If I don't beat NFLGR, I work with that instead (but can't risk uploading).

I started laughing after just the first 5 passes and then realized he's still a starter here.....

Wow.. that was PAINFUL!

Since this is a breakdown of some plays during the Redskins game, here is an article from a site I frequent often on a missed wide open TD, good read

Easy to be a great leader when you have a great team and the defense is #1 in the league year in and year out. Not as easy when the talent around you has eroded, similar to what Romo is going through now. I seem to remember Aikman's move being the dejected chin strap unclip that was synonymous with those last 4 years of his career.

Same body language we see from Romo now.

Wow...even with a decimated team and no young talent whatsoever Troy still managed two 10-6 records and another .500 record. Oh and by the way there's still that hand covered in rings.

Yeah I noticed that during the game. Appeared romo had decided to go for Dez per-snap to me. Once he saw him break open he didn't look elsewhere. A large percentages of passes that are thrown in the NFL are per-determined based upon where the QB decides they want to go per-snap - as long as the QB sees his primary come open, he doesn't look elsewhere.

Stupid breakdown. The gist of the article being that he's ragging on Romo for throwing it to Dez for 11 yards instead of Beasley deeper down the field.

He didn't have time to throw it to Beasley because nobody blocked the blitzing DB. If the ball hadn't came out the moment that it did on the hot read, that's another sack. Story of the frickin year. Can't throw it down the field because we can't block ANYONE.
