Yeah Romo threw for 500yds and they lose... But it was all his fault

 

[HowardC]

The D sucked donkey balls that year but Romo is a choker.

I love Romo...but didn't he throw the game ending interception in that contest?

Yeah he did. To his defense Escobar ran a ****** route and his foot was stepped on as he threw.

I was at that game! Talk about an emotional roller coaster!! Everyone around me was screaming at the defense to make ONE stop!! I don't
remember if the Broncos ever punted that day!! One of the most heartbreaking losses I've experienced!!

 

[HowardC]

If the D could've forced just 1 punt the Cowboys win. They allowed 5 head run in for a TD for Pete's sake ...

 

[Mobinvans]

Ya we lost, we had a terrible defense. In my opinion Dallas wasted his career. I still think he was a hell of a quarterback

 

[Aviano90]

Yeah he did. To his defense Escobar ran a ****ty route and his foot was stepped on as he threw.

Romo’s plant foot was interfered with but don’t see how Escobar ran a bad route. Had Romo been able to plant his foot it would have been an easy completion. As is, the defender still had to dive to intercept it. It was just a great defensive play. It happens. Well, rarely does it happen for us, but it does happen.

Stood toe to toe with one of the most prolific passing attacks that day. Still pissed at Escobar for drifting on his route and letting that LB undercut him.

Escobar was supposed to square his route off and shield the LB behind him. Instead of squaring it off, he drifted back and gave the LB space to make a play on the ball. If he runs parallel to the line he has to go through him to make that play.



You can see the drift here

His cut on the route was not sharp allowing the defender to cross in front of him. It was a good play by the defender though.

What a fun, incredible game to watch live(on tv for me) but so heart breaking to lose.

Then if that is the case the ball was forced and was a bad decision. Should have checked down to Murray who was open then. I just thought it was great defense. But ball would have been broken up and looking at 3rd and 16 instead of picking up yards with Murray

Romo putting up big numbers in a loss is “Vintage Romo”.

Romo was never the problem in Dallas, he was pretty much the sole reason we even had winning seasons
