And that has exactly what to do with the Denver game, which just happens to be the entire point of this thread???

Just a little reality to those who want to crown him for lighting up the 32nd ranked pass defense.

No they don't. Houston players right now are not out defending Shaub. I know from playing enough organized sports those guys in the locker room theirs is really the only opinion that matter. Let me say critics always are critical of a player but it does not matter if they believe in the player. Who cares what a Stephen Smith or some other talking head idiot has to say it has no bearing on the player themselfs only thing that will matter is do the player inside that locker room have faith in them.

I grant you that what someone says to the media and what their true feelings may be behind closed doors we don't know

Uh, yes they do. They may not say anything, but if they speak, they offer positive comments, unless they just flat out don't like the guy. And you're not the only one who has played organized sports. But that doesn't make any difference. I've read enough comments from players about their teammates. I know what they say.

Oh, and as for your Schaub example:

Despite the media firestorm surrounding him this week, Schaub has the unwavering support of his teammates.

Arian Foster , who called a players-only meeting on Monday, said the team needed to forge ahead and not let any one win or loss affect them.

“Everybody has bad games,” Foster said. “Everybody has bad runs. This is the NFL. It’s not easy out there, especially at that position. He’s our quarterback. He’s our leader. I’m riding with him.”

J.J. Watt admitted to having “a lot of anger” even three days later after two losses, but has shifted his focus to winning on Sunday at San Francisco. Winning or losing is a team effort, according to Watt.

“In this locker room, we’re behind him,” Watt said. “That’s all that matters. We’re going to go out there on the field, and we trust him and he trusts us, as one football team like I said on Sunday. No one player is going to win or lose you a football game. We need to go out there as a football team and win games. That’s what it comes down to.”

With the support of his teammates, Schaub said everyone was ready to move forward as a group. He knows exactly what he needs to get past Sunday's loss.

“Just go right back to the drawing board,” Schaub said. “Go right back to work the next day. That’s the thing that you’ve got to do. It was one play the other day and it was a very important play, but we’ll be better when we get back into that situation again. You just go right back to work and get right back in the film room, get right back out onto the practice field and go to the next one.”

Sounds like they're defending him to me.

Wrong. We act like it is Romo's fault for throwing another critical interception.



Tell yourself whatever you like that makes you feel better. If you watched that game and want to blame it on one guy instead of the entire unit who completely sucked that's your God given right. No one can stop you from being wrong.

It is a TEAM game remember? It was lost by the Team.. and that includes Romo for his dumb interception with the game on the line.

Hey I have no problem with giving Romo his part of the credit because he did throw a pick. But I won't put all the blame or the credit on him and I won't say he lost the game because if that useless defense did anything all day long then you won't even need to worry about the pick at the end because they wouldn't need to worry about that sort of thing.

This is a lot different to me if this was a 21-20 game or a 17-16 game. In a game like that where the defense obviously played their ***** off against the Broncos then I'd put the full credit on Romo because in that case it would be all on him.

But when your QB and his offense gives you 48 points then you ought to do something to help out and not put your QB and offense in that position to need even more points. I'm sorry for all the people out there who want to blame one person for losses like this but I'm not going to follow their blind ignorance.

When you see that the defense gave up 51 points I'm not going to point to the QB and say "DAMN YOU! You made a mistake! How dare you! You cost us the game! Forget the 50+ points our defensive unit gave up you're the reason we lost!"

That mindset isn't even just ignorant. It's outright stupid.

It's only lame if you are a Romo hater, which you obviously are.

No... I am a Romo guy. And have been arguing with people all week how this loss had nothing to do with him.

But that was lame. Really, really lame.

Has ANYONE on this forum just blamed Romo for the Denver loss? If so, I haven't seen it. It's almost like this is something the Romo homers make up. No offense.

I'll take that response over the majority of the blind hatred I see on here. It's stupid really.
