The block punt had more to do with us losing then Romo's mistakes. Why can't people see this? His fumble and INT gave away possible 6 points. The punt block gave away 7 points and field position. It's very possible that even with his mistakes, we could have won that game if the punt didn't get blocked.

Punt block = 0 TO 0. How do you lose when the score is 0 to 0? Please explain.

As an individual play, the INT was the most devastating. You can't really evaluate the value of a play with a mindset of "B would have never happened if A hadn't happened". We just don't know how things would have turned out. Sure, we could have won with Romo's mistakes had it not been for the punt block. But, we also still could have won even with the blocked punt .

I think the question would be, if we win the superbowl this year, would it be because of Romo or in spite of Romo?

I say because of Romo.

Right...and as Troy Aikman said...people go on about the 2 bad plays, but most fans just don't understand football being out there, and they don't think that Romo was the guy that took them to be keading in the game to that point. How is he to control a blocked punt.
