Here's to you, Drew Henson.

That ball seemed to me to be thrown in the back of the endzone where a reciever like Keyshawn could bring it down ... it was a jump ball and the defender didn't have a chance to intercept it ...

That, along with the fact that if you rifle it in, the defender would have picked it off or knocked it down. You have the put some touch on it to get it over the DB.
 
OK...this ball that Romo threw...I didn't SEE it, but Aikman said when it happened that Romo threw the ball where it had to be thrown, but the WR did not go up to get it. He also said that as a guy trying to make the team, he should have gone up to get it to help his cause.

This isn't ME saying it....it is Aikman saying it. Sorry, but I'll put more stock into what Aikman has to say about a QB, than virtually anyone else

You I will respond to.

Aikman is correct for how the ball was thrown to the spot. It does not change the fact that it was a rainbow that stayed in the air too long and the CB closed on it.

If people want to maintain (apparently) that this pass was the only possible throw then they should be smart enough to recognize it should not have been thrown at all then. It had 0% chance of completion the way it was thrown.

I'll take Bledsoe pushing the ball over that any day.

That may very well be. I didn't see it and can't respond to how I personally would have liked it thrown....again, just repeating what was said. :)

The ball bounced off Crayton's hands, a taller WR or one that could jump worth a damn would have EASILY caught it. That being said, it could have and, IMO, should have been caught.

I don't mind the pass. It was the amount of air under it I object to. Unless you have Randy Moss out jumping the DB it has no chance. He could throw that same pass 100 times in a row and I would expect the exact same result. Crayton actually nearly made a miraculous catch. I'm shocked it was even close.

Aikman was right ... the only other thing that was said (and this was right too) was that Romo could have let it go just a little sooner and it would have been a TD ...

In other words, Romo took a little too much time ...

But at least I can keep it real and I don't need to skew things ...

You're out of your mind and your agenda is crystal clear ... that wasn't a bad pass at all ... the timing was off a little, but the pass itself was fine ...

And you saying it had 0% chance of being caught shows that you really didn't have a good view of what was going on ... NOT AT ALL! You're flat out wrong on this here, Hos.

It was ENTIRELY catchable ... the denial you are displaying right now is pathetic ... anyone that watched the game knows that was a catchable pass even the way it was thrown ....

... had it been thrown a little earlier though, or Keyshawn running the route, it's a TD ...

I've heard of ostrich thinking, but you've taken it to a whole new level with this ostrich spectating.

Invin #88 - would have snagged that touchdown! This reciever didn't even look like he wanted to fight for the ball...that's what I saw...

You want the ball, you go get it...

Hos, man, you've got to be smarter than this ... watch the game on film ...

And what is it, Crayton could have caught it or it had a 0% chance of being caught?

Is Aikman conspiring against common sense?

Or could it be that he knows what the frick he's talking about?
