Romo passes on the question of what Cowboys must do to take the next step

[OmerV]

Did it ever cross anyone’s mind that he may not have wanted to fuel the tabloid sports media? After all, he’s been the victim of it many times himself

 

[Melonfeud]

I can't believe no one has got it yet.


You got the closest, but you didn't go all the way. He said I'll pass on that one. He meant that if he was still the QB, they would have solved the problems by now.

It is of a brilliant conceptualized configuration of an thinly veiled pointedly astute observation, yet unfortunately, in the field of " future sound bite fodder" ,,, of footballish parlance, the " pass,,, or,,, I'll pass,,,next question please" is deemed of universal acceptance

 

[Melonfeud]

Points and likes me likes...I think the Garrett explication was germane to the aforementioned..lol

I heard Romo on a TV interview today on CBS 11. Don't know the woman that was interviewing, but Tony remarked about when he was playing with the Cowboys, he'd sometimes wonder why they weren't doing something that he thought would work.

The answer he got was "It's not in our system."

Tony's response to the interviewer of what he thought: "Then our system needs to change."

And there you have it from Tony, what the next step is....

"Our" system needs to change.

We can find moments where Tony has been complimentary of Dak.

When it comes to Garrett it's been crickets.

Well I dont think tony holds anything against dak, it was JG , linehan, and the jones boys, who decided to go with dak over tony.

Romo knows first hand that great QB play will not be enough with Garrett.

or at least he should.

good post, JG doesnt like changes, and he thinks his system is great, it is always the players fault or some of the lower coaches fault.

I might have mentioned it, but then why ruin a perfectly good witch-hunt?

 

[DejectedFan1996]

Skimmed the thread so may have missed it, but Moore was saying on the Ticket this afternoon that Romo was also asked about Kellen Moore, and David said he sort of hemmed and hawed for a second but ended up saying he's heard good things about Kellen but he doubted much would change because the head coach was the same.

Anyone still unclear about all this?

Love it, lol. Not saying anything says a lot.

The old saying, his silence was definying. From his comments in the past we know it is Garrett.

Yep.

We had the #1 rusher in the nfl and we had a top 5 run defense that allowed 94 yards a game all season.

Players aren’t an excuse. They had the guys to get the job done. No excuse for 270 yards allowed on the ground.

McVay hit them with a bunch of pre-snap stuff and Dallas was clueless as to how to stop it.

look McVay's no magic act is an act, designed to distract ... he attacked our weakest players - the DTs ... relentlessly manhandled them

exactly what our interior OL didn't do to the Ram's DTs

there's not a real D1 on this team

 

[America's Cowboy]

I think he's talking about Prescott.

Funny how Romo has loose lips while commentating and answering questions about anything else, but his tongue gets tied when asked such a tough question that requires a simple honest answer.

 

[ak47kaehu]

He passed on the question because under his term at QB, the Cowboys never took the next step. How could one speak from experience when one didn't experience???

 

[Captain43Crash]

You're probably correct but I can sense a real hatred of Prescott in his response.

You cannot, but nice try.

 

[Captain43Crash]

Mods, please change the thread title to "Romo rips Prescott".

Seriously, change it to Rome discreetly rips Garrett, while Risen Star, unfairly rips Prescott.

 

[Runwildboys]

How about changing it to "The Guessing Game"?

 

[nobody]

My opinion... I bet he has. But Jerry isn't going to do *everything* Tony wants.

In fact, I've always suspected Tony is the reason Jerry took playcalling away from Jason years ago. We know Jason didn't want to give that up, so something forced Jerry's hand.

If that's the case, and I don't know if it is or not, then I bet that stewed in Garrett and was the catalyst for not letting Romo compete for his job back.

He turned me into a newt!

Does it really take Tony saying this to know it’s true. Some of us have been begging for a new system for over 8 years now. This isn’t 1993.
