Amen! Everyone thought he was washed up after a week or two. Now he's throwing the ball with zip and he's as elusive as ever back there in the pocket.
He's got the best running game and best offensive line he's ever played behind, and some of the best weapons to throw to as well. If he stays healthy, I expect a very efficient (albeit less flashy) year out of him.

Please...not everyone. I knew he would be fine.

I thought so too, so obviously not everyone. But there was some serious chicken little stuff going on around here regarding Romo, even after Tennessee.

He's still one blind-side hit away from IR, but so are most QB's.
We need to enjoy this while it lasts.

ya...and it was pure stupidity. tony is the man, and if he thought he wasnt, he'd retire.

This. In fact, I said several times that I thought around the 4th game would be when he would be fully back.

yup...I gave him 5 just like Spencer was getting to "get back in football shape". If people were realists, they wouldnt have jumped off the cliff after game 1.

Ah...the great Russian aphorism! The rumors of his demise indeed "seem" to be exaggerated...and his near 70% completion percentage may tell the story better. I have to admit that he seems to be going much better than in the opener (Rams). I had some serious concerns about him after that one. The 21 yard scamper was perfectly timed and a dagger in the heart of the Saints defense last night. From washed up, to the penthouse in four games. A rather modest turnaround I would say, because there won't be too many fans that want to send him into the good night after "last night"!
I don't know if he can continue to play at the level of Sunday night, but I do know that Murray is on pace for a whopping 1600 yard season, and if that projection comes to fruition, the Cowboys will certainly be in playoff contention.

He played fantastic last night. Less is more with Romo. Garrett and Co. seem to finally start taking notice of that.

The people who wrote him off are the same cast of characters who stand around drooling for any chance to denigrate him.
Very few come back and say they're wrong they just wait for the next INT or loss. So props to you Vinnie for not being one of those...

He's getting more healthy, he's feeling more comfortable, he's seeing the field better, and he's benefiting from an outstanding run game.

I would love to see Romo, more than anyone I can remember, lead the Cowboys to a Super Bowl victory. I've never seen any player, in any sport, treated the way he has been treated, especially by his own team's fans.

Just wait. If he has a mediocre or bad game against the Texans, a lot of the same people will be back on here saying he's washed up.

Completely agree with "Less is more with Romo". Under 30 attempts per game is key. It's like pitch count for a pitcher. That's what Garrett and Linenhan need to monitor every week.
