"Tony Romo's interception heard around the world never should have been thrown, according to Dallas Cowboys coach Jason Garett Speaking to reporters Monday, Garrett said Romo should have checked the ball down to running back Demarco Murray rather than try to squeeze it to tight end Gavin Escobar. After the game, which can be seen again at 9 p.m. ET Wednesday on NFL Network, Romo said he didn't put the ball where he wanted. But Garrett is right that the decision, not the accuracy, was the bigger problem. Of course, the defense was by far biggest issue on a day when the Cowboys gave up 51 points. Romo played fantastic overall although you wouldn't know it reading articles after the game"


LOL, Heres a clue sherlock. RUN THE BALL on first and 10? I cant believe this guy has the audacity to call out Romo. Am i the only one who believes we shouldnt have even been throwing in that situation?

I get why people say we should have run, but that feels like hindsight to me. We had been going up and down the field on them with the passing game to almost no resistance. If we run and gain nothing, everyone is yelling at Garrett for "not trusting" Tony in the game of his career.

and believe me, I am no Jason Garrett fan

Funny, so called haters Keyshawn and Ditka...Stand up for Romo, say it's not his fault....it's the TE's, and we wouldn't even have a chance without Romo.

So Red, can say what he wants

Jason Garrett is just a spectator on the sidelines. Maybe one day he'll be an actual head coach and help his football team.

Exactly....

He's not fooling anybody. He's not the HC of this team, just a puppet. So he needs to just sit back, and collect his Check.

Way to throw your QB under the bus. Coughin did the same today with Eli.

Garrett is the last person on this team who should question a decission by others.

And then to question his QB who played the game of his life just to see it been taken away by a defense that Garrett assembled doesn't make him more credible to say the least.

Even more spineless is the fact that granpa Kiffin got the heck out of the stadium and let the offensive players and coaches face the media bombardment.
