Any chance Crayton got paid?

Dak’s first season as the full time starter ended just like Romo’s. The front office has to figure out how to shore up the talent around its quarterback, or we’re looking at more of the same.

Well somebody finally figured out that having a better D might help.

Romo badly missing a wide open Terrell Owens in the red zone on 3rd down was a pretty big wasted opportunity, too. Touchdown instead of a FG there changes a lot.
Don't remember that play! Remember the ball going through Owens hands and hitting him in the facemask at about the 5!

Romo had two legit chances in his entire career, '07 and '14. Every other year the team just wasn't any good.

I think the best chance was '06. Not because that was the best team but there was no elite team that year. We beat the champs.

'09 we had a great defense and Romo had a great year. OLine let us down. Against Minny, never saw an OLine get beat like that in my life. Embarrassing.

your point? before Romo ie BR LOL , they were laughing stocks bad coaches horrible FA and 5-11 6-10 1-15 3-13 seasons and to boot horrible drafts, that dont even show the mediocrity we were in. they were Cleveland , in comes Parcels who brings in Romo, Witten and a better line granted it was old and pieced together but it gave us a legit chance almost yearly since then..it was the Cardiac boost we needed , yes up and down but not so down , we were out of it, we had a chance just about every year going into game 16 of making the playoffs and winning the division..sure its frustrating but it can be worse, it was before Jerry bought the team and that stretch in the early 2000s that still leaves a bad taste in my mouth..

Well, that's a new one at least. Normally people remember "Fasano dropping a wide open TD in the end zone". But what actually occurred was the Giants defended a pass intended for Fasano at the goal line (on 2nd down), followed by Owens streaking across the middle and Romo side-arming a ball high and behind Owens on 3rd down.

He didn't have enough pass protection.

Just like when tony fumbled the snap in Seattle. Anyone who didn't think that the Seattle offense wasn't going to march down the field and score after the field goal was good is crazy. they were tearing our defense up all day on 3 downs. Give the 4 downs and Seattle would have scored the winning TD anyway.

I doubt he did it on purpose, but Crayton should've caught both of those balls, and especially the game-winner.

And yes, TO had a bad drop but, for playing injured all game, he wasn't horrible. Just not dominant self.

Old news now anyway.
But it does show how wrong people are in just looking at the stat line. Add just those 3 catches and another 2 or 3 TDs that go with them, and things change radically.

Now,back to 2018
Go Cowboys

LOL. You say that jokingly, but he was beginning to feel the pressure. That's why he sort of rushed and threw it side-armed. He definitely should have hit that pass though.
