Yeah we lost. Bit depressed about that, but I have to comment on TO's post game PC.

The media was baiting him with leading questions the whole time. He did the best job I've ever seen in dodging those land mines.

Took responsibility for his drop. Consistently avoided accidentally throwing anyone under the bus.

Well done.

no link. It was on EspnNews.

Hope someone puts it online though. it was very enjoyable and actually lessened the pain of the loss. (if you can believe that)

If we were 8-6 right now, with BP as our coach - then it's a different story.

What does that say about the player when we have to congratulate him for not throwing someone under the bus, as oposed to his play on the field?

i think it says that a lot of fans are not sure if his seemingly changed attitude this year is for real or not, and they are still worried about his mood and statements after a game just like this.

the media also brought this up last week, saying that he would have exploded had we lost to Detroit, and I'm sure those same media members were chomping at the bit to get his statements after this one, and he disappointed them by not taking the bait, and taking fault for the drops.

it's all a symptom of not forgetting the past

Did you watch the PC?

The reporters were steering every question in hopes of getting a kind of answer they could use to turn into a controversy.

What does that say about our journalists?

Honestly, I hated TO with a passion before he got here. Tonight's PC was the first time that I believed he finally learned.

It was really something worth seeing.

Whatever dude. You and Theo can thank TO all day for not going off on a team mate(s) in the post game interview. I won't apologize for feeling that being professional after a loss should be expected from a player on a 12 and 2 team.

And if the best you can do is accuse me of being an Eagles fan, then good for you.

While I commend T.O. on his attitude, we are still 12-2 and really still in the driver's seat as far as home field. So why would he say anything but?

Oh, but it would have been so easy to do. If they replay it, be sure and watch it. They were throwing him softballs right down the pipe just hoping he would say something like "Romo sucked, I was wide open and he couldn't hit the broad side of a barn". I was glad he didn't say anything like that. However, when I heard the way the questions were asked I was thinking "uh oh"...

it says he's a baby. but everyone knows that. you either accept it and work with it

or you try to be stubborn like the eagles and parcells and just hurt yourself.

hats off.... he DROPPED HUGE PLAYS that could have decided this game in our favor. romo was injured, jason clueless and TO wilted.

are our expectations that low that we praise him for NOT being a distraction, even when he does NOTHING on the field?
