Default Phil Simms Quote From Inside The NFL

Quote:
How come when Tony Romo plays really well, we don't talk about it. When they lose, no matter what happened, it's gonna be Tony Romo's fault.


A very valid point.

Well this is a head scratcher.
Did you know there are only 5000 Snow Leopards in the wild now and they are confined to Central Asia? However, the effective global population (those likely to reproduce) is less than half that number.

So, did he talk about it? Or did he just ask a rhetorical question?

It's like this for the whole organization . From the owner all the way down to the towel boys. When we lose it's front page news and when we win,
crickets.

How come when we lose, it's always someone's fault, but when we win, nobody is at fault?
Formerly the notorious nyc!

I've got more red flags than Soviet Russia!

There is a good chance that you don't like me, but there is a better chance that I don't care.

If I'm not insulting you, I'm probably not aware that you exist.



Jerry Jones in the draft room is suicide on the football field. The line of scrimmage is EVERYTHING. Something Jerry doesn't understand.

Simms is always praising Romo.

We'll settle this with a good dust up.

The psychology seems to me to be simple. As a fan, you expect to win. When you don't, finger pointing happens. It's Romo/Garrett/OL/etc.

No. When Tony has a bad game they seem to have multiple segments on it dedicated to telling people how bad he did.

I was listening to Pat Kirwin on his Sirius NFL radio show and was disgusted at the conversation he had with a Cowboy fan. Basically both Kirwin and this Cowboys fan threw the Cowboy nation under the bus as being hyper-critical of Romo as if the friggin media had nothing to do with it. There is a small percentage of Romo haters out there, but many of them were led to that place by the BS media. You can count the number of pro-Romo media types on one hand,,,

NO! In fact it is quite the opposite.

Drew Brees throws 5 picks, and he gets a pass. Does he get criticized for that game?

I don't care if he won a Super Bowl or not - that is past history just like all the other Super Bowls.

It is not who you are, it is what logo is on your helmet.

Cowboys and Raiders will never get the credit they deserve, and get slammed much more than they deserve.

The media has zero integrity.
"I don't think I would enjoy my prefession if I knew I was always a winner. It is the chase, the challenge, much moreso than the winning"From 1976 team highlight film "Wild and Wooley"

"I don't pray for my team to win. I pray to give my team the power to excel"
From his book, "Landry: The Man Inside."
