CyberB0b made a great point, which is, the formation was an empty backfield. Did Romo really audible?

I forget what the formation was. If that's true, then it's a great point and makes Garrett a liar.

How about empty back field on a 3rd and goal earlier in the game? No threat of a draw play for the defense to think about.

They've been ignoring the run all season, but today I was just shocked when Romo kept dropping back in the second half.

I just saw the play again, and anybody claiming Beasley saw the defender and sat on his route is full of garbage as well. That CB was nowhere in the line of vision on Beasley, and Beasley hesitated on his cut, but never even sat either. It was a poor route...

there was far more empty sets in the second half that non empty sets. I pointed it out, which means that there is no threat of runs or play action. I was shocked everytime they did this. The game wasn't lost at the end, it was lost long before that.

If Garrett claims Romo audibles out of a run in an empty backfield that Callahan would have called then he's a liar...

again, it doesn't matter

The final drive wasn't the issue, not running the whole second half while we had the lead was the issue

It matters about Garrett lying to save hugs own skin or that he's just incompetent and doesn't even know what's going on... But your right, to focus on one play when the whole second half you abandon the run, it's just nonsense..

Beasley looked confused, just like TWill did on that pick early this season. I'm sure he'll learn from his mistake.
