DMN: BLOG: TO I Have No Eartly Idea What Romo Friendly Means

T.O. did an interview with 105.3 The Fan's Greg Hill to promote his football camp later this month in Duncanville. They were talking Cowboys by the end of the conversation.

T.O. was complimentary about the receivers that remain on the Dallas roster. He didn't take any jabs at his former quarterback (sniff), either, although T.O. has made it clear that he believes Tony Romo helped get him evicted from Valley Ranch.

The concept of a Romo-friendly offense confuses T.O. That's what Jerry Jones declared the Cowboys planned to have just before T.O. was released.

"I have no earthly idea," T.O. said when asked for his definition of Romo friendly. "Maybe if it was T.O. friendly, maybe I would be still in Dallas.

"I have no earthly idea what Romo friendly means. Maybe whomever gave you that phrase, then maybe they can better explain that. But I have no earthly idea what that could possibly mean."

T.O. didn't see Jason Garrett's scheme last season as being Romo or T.O. friendly.

"It became very simplistic," T.O. said. "As I said, there wasn't a lot of deviation really from week one to week 10.

"I think the things that I said toward the end of the year Romo came out and said toward the end of the year as well. We didn't have any adjustments for what the defenses were giving us. With that being said, that falls into us being simple.

"You know, a lack of execution, that's going to happen with any offense at some point in time during the course of the season. That's easily to be corrected. But when it comes to an offense with the weapons that we had, then we have to take advantage of those situations. I don't think that's what was done."

pretty fair assessment.

Very happy TO is gone but i agree with him about Garrett. Hopefully Techmo will learn a few more plays this season.

Can't believe the Dallas press is still talking about TO . . . .

I guess he still sells newspapers.

I wish Jerry never came up with that stupid phrase "Romo Friendly".

IMO, that phrase made our QB seem fragile.

I have no earthly idea either. He's gone. Let's move along.

Garrett's gameplan, eh?

Someone should ask Owens why he went from 9.4 YPA against K.C. Joyner's red corners in 2007, to 2.0 YPA (14 games; 2nd Commanders and 2nd Eagles games excluded) against them in 2008. That drop off is dramatic. It's worse than Patrick Crayton's 2.6 YPA against them in 2007.

Joyner has a baseline of work for his metrics, and Owens' YPA had declined three out of the last four seasons. One of Owens' best overall years came in Jason Garrett's offense in 2007, the only year his YPA didn't decline out of those four seasons.

Owens' level of play had declined significantly in 2008. He didn't look like a number one WR last year.

Ask him why Rod Hood shut him down in Arizona.

It was the same offense, the same player, but two different results.

I didn't hear Owens complaining about the offense or how he was being used during his elite 2007 season.

Good riddance, excuse maker/finger pointer/team wrecker.

I hope you have fun while Darelle Revis is beating you up at the line of scrimmage.

Have fun on "North America's" team.

Buffalo is such a warm, cozy place.

Someone tell Trent Edwards to buy a little mirror, so he can see the dagger coming at his back.

People are dying to play there. lol

the quote "Romo friendly" is the only thing Jerry has done this off season i dont approve of

 

[dadymat]

i suppose you are gonna tell us about how fragile Romo is now huh....?

 

[Bob Sacamano]

Jerry uses some weird phraseology

 

[zrinkill]

Seem????? Oh yeah i forgot i was on vacation. lol

Not a man either I see

Lol, ok ok I'm not going to post anymore on this board until after week 1 when Roy doesn't do a damn thing. I cant wait to hear the excuses. "He's still getting to know Romo", "Its still early"

You are a Fraud and I cannot wait till you are evicted to a buffalo forum.

at the folks who thought just because TO is off of the team the media will stop talking about him. I hope Roy and co are able to step it up because they will be unmerciful with their coverage if they are average. Hacks like JJT and Mosely probably already have their headlines ready before the story materializes, lol.

 

[slick325]

T.O. was 100% correct about Garrett, his sin was telling Deion about it in a public forum. Romo was 100% correct about Garrett at the end of the season his sin was saying it in a public forum (although I don't believe Romo received any negative backlash about it).

I always thought a majority of Dallas' issues began with the OC. I just hope Garrett can bounce back this season.

It's what the media always does with the Boys... even the locals. Everything we do is wrong.

When we had TO they complained. Now that he's gone, they will complain. You can bet that they're going to keep a close eye on his stats up in the arctic circle and if he does well, we will be hearing about that every week too.

I'll be glad when we stop talking about TO.
