Don't blame Romo

[LandryFan]

You can blame 2 or 3 others before you blame Romo but Romo DOES get some blame. He needed to get that first down or TD on the 2nd to last series. The game was there... and then it wasnt.

If the rest of the team played as well as Romo did today, Dallas would have won in a BLOWOUT! No QB is perfect. Romo upheld his end of the deal, and then some.

Yeah. He just missed that one. He hit on the next one to Austin though.

Ugh. I swear, if we get that onside, Romo would have tied this game up. No doubt about it.

No doubt in my mind.

I blame Vegas.

Romo had a good game, but he can't throw that bailout pass to Barber in that situation when Barber was short of the 1st down marker and the Giants had been tackling him so well.

The play was designed to go to Barber. Barber has to get beyond the first down marker himself. Romo cannot make the determination from where he is that Barber is beyond the marker or not. He just has to get the ball out, on target, and hope Barber did his job. But Barber didn't and that's that.
