I just got done watching laufenberg's sports segment and bennett had his show with steve dennis tonight.

He did something that I have not heard anyone do except witten over the last two years, He stood up for romo publically. Gurode and ratliff have also done this since the game.

that is a sign of change to me. I think players should run through walls for their quarterback, but I have never heard anyone stand up for him.

THe only people that matter are the ones in the locker room and this is a good sign to me.

I will put the video up in a minute.

I disagree. What was there to back up? He stunk up the place. You do not have to say anything bad, he knows he sucked, but why back him up. This team is soft, needs a tough coach, I say go and get Bilyk, Gruden, someone with some balls.

Excellent point.

Brian Billick and Jon Gruden have made sure to surround themselves with outstanding Quarterback play.

Spot on.

:rolleyes:

What? "Over"?
Did you say "over"?

Nothing's over until we decide it is!

Was it over when the Germans
bombed Pearl Harbor?
Hell, no!


And it ain't over now.

'Cause when the going gets tough...

(Patriotic instrumental music)

the tough get going! Who's with me?

Let's go! Come on!

(with apologies to the best frat house movie ever made):)

Get the hell out of here with that crap man!!!! I was just as furious as the next person with Romo's performance but to sit here and post a comment saying why should a player back up another player when we just had a season last year that was criticized for its lack of chemistry is ridiculous.

How dare Martellus support his QB. Should just kick him while hes down. That ought to show Romo.

Oh, hey. That is a worthy thing for players to do.
I think that what is lost in this, ahem, conversation, is that because these players came to the defense of another is because . . . maybe that player was truly horrible and needs defendin'
yes?

yes he played poorly. And I think it is important when everyone in the world is kicking him and some people who have totally lost their mind are saying get rid of him, the ones closest and most important to him stand up for him.

as long as they are doing it behind the scenes that is all that matters but doing it publically the way gurode, ratliff and marty b have done it this week I think means alot.

in the past few years I have heard some guys in situations where they should stand up for him this way flat out give some cliched answer.

again, I just think it is important. Its a trust, confidence and chemistry issue. When the little things are all in order down the road the big things will come. And of course the most important element, Unity.

Oh wow. I'm actually more surprised by Troy's props. He actually looked... proud. Thank you Troy. Now do it during a broadcast for once.

Troy Aikman apparently has never heard of "broader perspective."

Marty is playing with fire. Romo isn't the most popular guy in Dallas anymore.
Be careful Marty!
