Blaming 13 interceptions on "bad routes" is silly.
I believe Jason Garrett said six of the interceptions were Romo's fault and the others were because of other "circumstances."

Offhand, I can think of at least four that were caused by bad routes/drops.

No one is saying Romo hasn't made mistakes/bad decisions, but it's also clear not all of the interceptions are his fault.

You can say that about probably every quarterback, but it's been an epidemic for the Cowboys this year, which skews Romo's numbers.
"'Room' always makes me chuckle. That's irrelevant. What we have on a given day really doesn't relate to what you're ultimately going to have and how you're going to manage."
