Well said...and against most other teams, we would have lost, but being as inconsistent as we've been lately, I'll take the win, ugly as it was.

Winning always beat the hell out of losing. :laugh2: One constant in the post game interviews is the players did not lose site of the mistakes they made and the importance of cleaning them up.

UMM? your blaming Romo for the fumble? The snap was late from gurode and davis knocked it away while he was pulling.

This is why Romo lit up gurode on the sideline and then witten came over started lighting up gurode. It was on Gurode.

Geesh. I knew someone would blame that on romo.

Yeah, great QBs like Peyton Manning and Tom Brady didn't have any turnovers yesterday like that puke Romo did. Oh wait... :rolleyes:

You knew it was coming... Negative Nancy to the rescue. Find a way to make it his fault.

Who is overboard in assigning blame? Handling the football is his job. And yes, it was a turnover. All I see is a hyper-reaction here where even a compliment is ignored and the Poor Tony Romo defenders burst out of the woodwork to render him blameless.

Until we become a team that can shrug them off, each and every one is critical. Right now, we simply aren't able to overcome them. But they continue to happen, at least one a game. I believe he hasn't had a streak since his career as a starter began where he avoided one for more than two consecutive weeks, has he?

Someway, somehow, each week there is a turnover. Now if some of you feel content to assign blame for this one and not the others, be my guest. Funny thing is, I don't see the Gurode apologists en masse.

To me, they all count. They all exist and until they are eliminated, if even sporadically,

What a bunch of BS. If you want to blame the guy when he screws up, then who can argue. But when you starting blaming him for things he can not control and that are not his fault, you drip with agenda and lose credibility.

It doesn't matter much who done it ,its the fact it happened at all along w/ the many blunders representing a somewhat ill prepared team.

It seemed to matter to the guy that said it. :rolleyes:

I agree.

Also, to think that you can somehow completely eliminate turnovers shows a total lack of any grasp on reality.

of course it counts.

Dont go screaming romo apologists because you couldnt understand what happened on a play and just threw the blame at the feet of the qb.

Gurode snapping the ball late has been a problem this year, yesterday it finally caused a turnover.

On the sidelines houck, romo and witten were having a fit and that is where it all started with the guys getting on each other, the gurode late snap.

If your going to be so matter of fact in everything you say, get your facts straight.

14) Have never been a Zimmer fan (GROZ founder) but I am thrilled they pulled that game out for him yesterday. What a terrible week for him and his family, and he goes out in what has to be the worst possible situation and coaches a good game (held Baltimore to 12 first downs, 14 pts) on the road. Kudos to him and my prayers continue to be with him and his family.
I too wanted Zimmer gone, but it was great to see his defense hold the Ravesn to 7 points (the other TD was a pick and run back by Ed Reed). I was also nice touch to see Marvin give him the game ball, I got chocked up watching it, but I'm a sap. ;)

Ok, I will blame Romo for both Crayton fumbles. ;) (I didn't see the Romo fumble, family sometimes gets in the way of the game if only temporarily)

13) Jeff Fisher...please stop with the non-sense of wanting this guy as a HC here. He's 0-5 and that team is a J O K E. Wonder if he is still worried about that low hanging scoreboard.

Wade makes Fischer look like Lombardi. Collins turned back into Collins and VY is a never gonna be the answer there.

Hey Genius, those quotes were responses to a stupid comment about the fumble. It was beyond clear that it was the center's fault, but people want to criticize Romo for the turnover. That makes one an "apologist"? Gimme a break. If Romo thows a ball right between his receiver's #'s and it bounces off the guy's chest into a DB's hands I guess you'd have no problem assigning blame to the QB for the INT in that situation.
Recognizing what actually occurred is NOT being an apologist.

It is looking like Belichick, not Pioli, was the real brain behind the Patriots.

Nah. It was this guy:
