After reviewing film, Romo was terrible and cost us the game

[noshame]

Haslett did that last season so it's not a new revelation

Well, now everybody is on the same page.

It's not throwing it up for grabs, I'm thrilled he's stopped that. It's the fact that DB's can play off and he cannot (for example) throw a rocket to Dez at the snap and let him try to beat the defender, or a quick slant to the TE, there's no room for error on those throws, so you don't see them. More often than not, you see him pull the ball down and look elsewhere, now, if you're OL is giving you enough time to eat lunch, this works, but those days are over. Time for some quick hitting running plays.

Dallas has ran plays like that this season and Romo has hit them. again your taking 1 game and all of a sudden it is a problem he is having. Many do this around here they take a missed play by a player and act as if they do that all the time when in fact is was 1 play. I think Romo was off, I think OL was off and defense as well

Yes he has hit those plays, but not under the kind of pressure he faced, where he had to make the throw no mater how tight the coverage.

did you notice that often times the routs you are talking of were routs that no one was running?

Hahhaa..

After "reviewing" the tape. LOL.. God. some of you just crack me up..

Should be "after DVRing the game and watching it again." blah blah blah..

Romo sucked, coaching sucked for not adjusting to the defense. Turnovers by BOTH running backs.. Just a horrible game for the team.

I don't need to "review" anything to see that Dallas lost because they got beat up by the other team. The EXACT thing that most in here were blind too, but, some knew could happen. Dallas not bringing the fight to the opposing team, as they had in the past few games.

 

[TellerMorrow34]

Good post by the OP. Some solid work on his part.

I'll still stick with the team loss of this.

Yes Romo left plays on the field.

As did Murray.

As did Dez.

As did Witten.

As did the coaches.

As did the entire team.

 

[gimmesix]

It wasnt the poor coaching or multiple RB fumbles or dez dropping 2 TD passes that hit his body...it was all tony romo lol

There were plenty of mistakes to go round on offense and defense. If Murray doesn't fumble, then that's three points. There were also some blitz pickup opportunities for him and Witten where they went to the wrong side.

Washington had us fooled from the QB to the line to the coaches and we did not adjust.

Even the defense after starting out playing well was outcoached in the second half, allowing Colt McCoy to look like an NFL quarterback.

Even if it was true, while I don't think it necessarily is.

He will do that. So will all QBs.

I don't get the point here?



With game in line. Coaches muffed it up!

Haha. Somebody is still stuck in 2010 and fails to realize that the NFL now makes the same film the coaches use available to us mere mortals. Why don't you dust off the old DVR and see if you can find the same shots that I posted on your recorded game.

Some people are so content in their ignorance. If only you know how much of a fail this post was.

 

[gimmesix]

I think this is a better analysis of where the fault should lie. Too many routes where the receivers didn't get turned, two many seven-step drops against the blitz, too many bad blitz pickups, etc.

When we fail to have a good game plan or make adjustments, the QB is going to have a bad game.

The point is to see for yourself as a fan what you might not have seen in the broadcast and realize that your QB must fix these problems in other for your team to contend.

When Arizona blitzes the hell out of us on Sunday don't you wanna know what adjustments Linehan and Romo made and how much better they got from this loss? Or are you ok with seeing open WRs down the field and a shell shocked QB just taking sacks or checking down when he should be making them pay?

 

[LittleD]

Romo may not have had the best game, but he didn't cost us the.

I agree... Romo didn't cost us the game...Garrett did. He should have sit
Romo and let Weeden finish the game no matter what Jerry or the Doctor's said.
Garrett still makes bad coaching decisions in critical game situations.

Romos height affects his 3-step drop ability.

Great work...

And yet they gave up only 17 points in regulation and gave the offense a chance to score for the win in both the 4Q and OT.

Really don't understand how anyone could blame the defense for this one.

How about this: the defense allowed Washington to control the ball for approx. 27 minutes in the 2nd half and OT to our 11 minutes. Much of that is due to our O being less efficient than usual on 3rd downs, but the fact remains that the D had a very hard time getting off the field.

Bottom line: Garrett/Romo are 4-4 versus the Skins since Jim Haslett became their DC in 2010. When you consider the fact that Washington is 23-41 during that stretch versus everybody else, the conclusion is obvious: Haslett just flat owns Garrett/Romo.

I agree that it is better analysis, mainly because it's a person more experience and knowledgeable than me doing the analysis and he uses telestrators for a better demonstrations.

But he focused on the 5 sacks and I already contended in my post that I don't fault Romo for 3 of them.

I differ a bit in my analysis of the 2nd sack because I feel even if the pass was incomplete, with a free rusher he shouldn't have taken the sack on that play. He either has to fire to the back shoulder of Dez or throw it out of bounds. Dave Halprin says in his post that a couple of quick slants should have beaten that blitz. Well Dez was running a quick slant that the CB was going to jump so Romo has just the back shoulder throw to make as he can't get his face across to find open Beasley who was also running the equivalent of a quick slant as he was open.

On the 1st sack, Halprin is right that Romo called the wrong protection. But even with that, he could have hit Beasley on the sideline or hit Witten coming out of the backfield if he was willing to take the hit as he was throwing.

My post focuses on more than the sacks. Especially, my post focuses on the 3 plays that occurred in OT. He was miserable in OT.

 

[Crown Royal]

It was a team effort in the loss. 2 fumbles, bad coverage on a punt (Spillman stinks), too many missed tackles on defense. But like I said, the O-Line wasn't the problem against the blitz. When 5 or 6 is protecting against 7 or 8 pass rushers, some of those pass rushers will get free and the QB has to make the right reads and get the ball out quickly enough or you're going to have a bad day. Still, I think we were better off adding extra blockers which is what we did when Weeden was in the game.

Romo looked skiddish from the onset. A few of his initial throws didn't have a lot of zip on them when they could have used some zip. Then he threw some too hard for the pass play in question or just badly missed their mark. To me, that's when the Garrett/Linehan/Romo should be thinking about adding extra blockers because that is when Romo doesn't have the game to beat the blitz using more receivers.

This so much. For whatever reason Haslett is the anti-romo. But fumbling twice, missing tackles all game, dropping a sure TD (Dez) all contributed as well.

I don't really believe that Washington had us fooled. They didn't show us anything that we have not seen before. In fact, they pretty much stuck to the script and did what they know has worked in the past.

If we were fooled, it was not Washington who fooled us IMO. It was we who fooled ourselves. JMO
