we're happy dude.

that's all.

and we refuse to let you pull crap out of your *** to pee in our cheerios.


Be happy, but I'm sticking up for the defense who pretty much gets the blame for this crap. The OP says Romo isn't affected by the jinx and it's dead to him. So who is it alive to? The defense I'm sure. And that's BULL****!

109.7 QB rating in December, by the way.

Any idea how that ranks compared to the rest of the NFL? I'd love to know just how *terribly* that must compare for some to come on here and dump on Romo after beating the Saints...

in their house...

with a line of 7 against them.

I simply don't know what to say to you if you truly think that's what I'm implying.

I didn't say a word about the defense, which stepped up in a huge way tonight.

To say that I am would be truly idiotic.

I'm just talking about the quarterback.

OUR Quarterback.

Our ELITE Quarterback. (That's right, I said it)

Romo is playing great in December.

But whether we like it or not, he's going to be judged not by how well he does, but whether his team wins.

It's not fair, but that's the way it be.

I can blame him for a 3 and out against the Chargers after Phillip Rivers led his team down the field to score. Like I said, people absolve Romo of SOOOOOOO much on this board it's funny to me. Just look at the stats, "oh he's having a great December". He is playing good but that Charger game had ALOT to do with his play. Blame the defense is the theme of this board.


So tell me Guru, You still have that QuINTcy poster hanging in your bedroom ? Got to give you credit, you have REALLY carried that torch for the lispy one a long time. This is now almost 2010, he isnt coming back. EVER! ;)

Eh...even this week, you saw more commentators mention that Romo was playing well despite the two losses.

There's a little truth there, but if our defense and special teams played as well as they played tonight we are 3-0 this month. They didn't play that well in both games. In the NFL even if you play bad teams and 2 of your 3 phases aren't playing well you lose games most of the time.

You're putting a lot of confidence in commentators and what they say. Let the Cowboys lose and get booted out of the playoffs, and the same commentators will forget the excellent play of Romo and repeat that he can't lead the Cowboys to where they need to be when December and January rolls around.

Quarterbacks get too much praise when their team wins, and too much criticism when their teams lose.

As Bruce Hornsby sang ... "That's just the way it is."

All this proves is Romo is has matured this year as a QB. He is making proper reads and is being smart not to force things..

Remember what people were saying about Peyton Manning his first 4 or 5 years?? How he couldn't "win" the big game??

Unless I'm loopy because it's late and am misreading what you wrote ... San Diego scored 10 on us in the first half, not 3.

Your opinion isn't worth the time it takes to type it, btw.

People were *nuts* to be blaming Romo to begin with. But he has done an amazing job of controlling turnovers so far this season.
