Now tell me, who is "Showing Ignorance" here. Clearly reading comprehension is a weakness for you....

oh...my bad.....the post was so ignorant i didnt make it to the end ......

I stopped reading at the precursor you applied that would deminish any credit to Romo for any good that was to come in the second half....

I used to defend him often but after the season he is having it's hard for me not to say he's somewhat part of the problem at this point.

Yes there is. He's rattled. He's beat down. He's battered and bruised. He's playing scared. He's almost terrified. He's on the brink of becoming damaged goods. That's why I say he needs a breather but I'm willing to protect his psyche by telling the world he needs to go in for "X-rays."

If he continues to take this abuse behind this O-line he will become another David Carr, I can see it in his eyes when he gets hit or when he thinks he's going to get hit. It's called Shell Shock...

LOL at this entire thread as the few try to impose their will with another bad attempt.

This time it comes in the form of passive aggressive writing. "It's half the defense, he needs a breather..." - instead of just saying - I want him out of Dallas as the QB.

Here's an idea, let's bring in (insert name here) and let them get shell shocked, rushed, battered and looking for receivers that aren't there, year after year while they display outstanding body language and an upbeat demeanor, (like Brady or Manning when they're losing). Then, we'll just wait for the organization to become stable under great management and superior coaching. I'm sure they'll light it up.

I'm on board, just go grab somebody, anybody...waiting...waiting...waiting...

Give me a break. He threw it behind him, Austin had to turn almost completely around and slow down will sprinting across the middle. If he threw it in front of him he wouldn't have had to break stride. If it was a better pass he would have had time to catch it and at the very least lower his shoulders for impact. Either way, not only does Romo throw a bad pass, he lead his guy into harms way. The receivers are losing (have lost) trust in Romo. The only one who still plays reckless is Dez, but he is a very strong guy who doesn't care at the moment...

Well at least you are honest. Its ok we've all been guilty of only reading fragments when losing interest. But if you are going to resort to name calling do your homework because the only one with egg on their face is you buddy...

Listen Dr Phil we don't have to go very far, in fact right now we have a guy who is fresh and ready to go in one Kyle Orton. He's no Aaron Rodgers but he will do better than the current beat down soldier who clearly needs a breather. This team needs a momentum shift, a huge momentum shift, and it needs one at the rudder...

Kyle may not be as good of a scrambler but he has a stronger more accurate arm, and he's fresh. He can take a beating for a while and still have some success imo....

why listen to a HOF QB when you have an INTERNET EXPERT telling you the exact opposite

I mean this INTERNET EXPERT obviously knows so much more...

Kyle Orton would take a worse beating.
Your just being silly (because I can't say what I'm really thinking) now.

Unbelievable -- now we're reaching by breaking down individual passes thrown by Romo.

Yeah, his accuracy is terrible, never mind the fact that although this is his worst year he's at 66% completion percentage and has the 3rd highest yards per game of any QB -- despite being "shell shocked and battered."

I wonder where he'd be if he wasn't "shell shocked and battered." -- but let's just get rid of him, there's plenty of other QB's out there right?....still waiting...waiting....waiting.....

There's no mystery that Romo is just as good a scrambler as Rodger The Dodger was, but it stops there...

And yes Rodger had the luxury of an awesome Defense that Romo doesn't have. However more often than not, Romo puts his Defense in bad positions in the first place...

Please contribute something intellectual or don't post in my thread Captain Kool aid, aka Romo-Apologist.......

[Nav22]

Troy is almost the opposite of romo lol #leader. Troy gets on his players and give them hints and etc on the sideline.

So Tony doesn't get on his offensive teammates when they repeatedly screw up? Are you blind?

This season alone, I've witnessed him either yelling at or instructing Felix, Dez, Miles, Witten, members of the O-line... basically the entire offensive unit.

You have no clue what you're talking about by insinuating that Romo doesn't "get on his players". None.

Kyle Orton? The same Kyle Orton that lost his job to Tebow? hmmm....that's a bold stance your taking there...bold indeed
