Colin Cowherd. I never understood why Tony Romo was hated by Cowboy fans

Me either.

Well, Colin.

Because he, like the guy you bash daily, did not have great success come playoff time.

In 2015 we were 3-1 with Romo.

In 2015 we were 1-11 without Romo.

He’s the best QB we’ve had since Aikman, but that’s not saying much either.

Fans never really hate players...well, the vast majority of players are never really hated by their fan base. Fans hate losing. They dislike it when their guy(s) do not get the job done and win. Fans are human and often too critical of players and even overreact. But often once a player retires the fans attitude slowly changes. People seem to understand that is more to a person than his football ability. They even grow to like the guys with a little time. It is in the process of happening now with Romo. It will probably happen with Dak after he retires....

I’d argue he wasn’t hated by most Cowboy fans. Like with anything the loud minority noise blares over more moderate opinions. Not to mention the opposing fan haters and trolls.

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

I never understood it either. Similar to why I don’t get the hate with Dak.

I do understand the frustration with fans re: the lack of postseason runs.

I do think it’s pretty funny that early on, Dak fanatics for a long time hung their hats on Romo’s poor playoff “W/L record” mainly because at that point Dak hadn’t been in the league much. Now, Dak has a worse playoff record and they all want to plead the many reasons why it’s unfair to blame a single player.

Maybe

Oh boy this will be a civil thread

 

[DallasDW00ds0n]

generally speaking, I think most fans did like Romo at the end of his career

Romo dislike came when he botched a few games. Especially that FG with Seattle. Unless he won a SB there was no coming back from that one.

People like him contributed to the hate lol...now he's wondering why he was hated lol.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

The guys who hate Romo and Dak....it's the gutter of the fan base. Casual fans.

 

[TexasHillbilly]

I always liked Romo. He was a blast to watch. Just when he started to calm down and stop taking so many chances with the ball, his injuries got the best of him.

 

[fairviewfarmer]

Imo, Romo looked and played like he didn't take things seriously enough.
He had a big arse smile on his face after a pick too many times for me.
That, and he choked in the playoffs repeatedly, like our current QB.

Chokers need love too.

This video has to be old. What’s the point of posting this ?

Aye....you don't have to love them but you can certainly understand that while yes they are chokers they are a small problem to what the bigger issue is. Let's remember 28 years predates both Dak and Romo. That goes back to Aikman.....

 

[shabazz]

I won't speak to Cowherds message but I've heard this guy say some really dumb ish.

He's actually proud to be called an elitist and his takes are at times sanctimonious pandering.

End of rant

Jesus you're right....it's 7 years old.
