You are correct about the "it" thing. I'm not even sure how to explain "it", but I think I see it. Intangibles, like Favre, Staubach, Brady, Montana have.
Not a shot at Bledose, who I really like, but he doesn't have "it". He never has. everything he has accomplished on the field (and there are a lot) he has done strictly on skill and desire. He has fought for everything he has accomplished. It just looks so smooth and simple for players like Favre and Montana. And it just kind of looked that way for Romo last night.
By the way, I liked the way he looked in control standing over the line, even corrected a few players out of position. Can't wait to see the whole game today.
