What's Up with the Broken Rib Story

[Sportsbabe]

I don't see any thread's, comments, or conspiracies. Which makes me suspect of the whole thing. But, if his ribs were broken in the 1stQ it gives him a little bit of a break on my disappointment with his performance in that game.

Naw. He won in SF with broken ribs. He just chokes under pressure. It's a disturbing trend.

I'd imagine this was either concocted or, if true, fanned to mitigate the abhorrent performance by Romo in the final minutes (and arguably the entire game).

Was 9/11 an inside job?

It definitely looked like he got hurt on the short pass to Witten at the end of the first half. I said he "broke his rib again" to my Dad at the time. He still made some big throws and mental mistakes afterwards, so I don't know bad it actually was.

Yeah, it was with about 1:05 left in the second quarter IIRC. Unblocked blitzer blindisided him. You can see he's in a lot of pain after the hit.

I don't think people really used it as an excuse, more just a statement of fact. At least that's the way I took it.
