5 picks and a turn over. Hard pressed to come up with too many worse games than that.

One of the worst games in the history of the NFL? Seriously?

That you must have a very mentally tough ball-club to bounce back after 6 TO's from your leader. A sign of a super bowl caliber team is one that can overcome adversity, boy did they ever tonight.

pretty damn bad...at least of the games I have watched

it could have been alot worse too...they dropped several other easy ones

hpefully he shakes it off and takes better care of the ball, does a better job of seeing the coverage...whatever the Bills did for most of the night had him totally confused

For a QB, yeah I would bet its close. Very few QB;s are left in to do that many turn overs. I'm almost surprised we didn't pull Romo at one point. Since he managed to put together a couple of good drives it made it not be, without those it would undoubtedly have been one of the worst games in history for a QB.

The picks were awful but this really was a mediocre game by Romo that turned bad due to miscommunication and lucky plays. The two TDs were both on fluke plays -- he and Witten on the wrong page and Kelsay getting an amazing bounce.

This is how i view the interceptions...

5 Picks for each of the 5 games we won consecutively.

2 INTs weren't on Romo, 3 were. 3 INTs is still a very bad game. There were 3 that very well could have been intercepted but were dropped, but one game a season does not make. This won't fly against the Pats though...

Before the game, Tom Jackson and some of the other ESPN talking heads were saying that Romo (and the Cowboys) hadn't faced any adversity yet. If tonight's game wasn't adversity, I don't know what is. Romo responded on that last drive for the winning FG. Romo wasn't the only one who came through tonight. Crayton, Tony Curtis, MBIII, Witten, Nick Folk, all of these guys came up big tonight. On defense, Ware and T-New made a huge play. We didn't score, but we stopped Buffalo from scoring a TD that would've nailed the coffin shut. It was a team effort. This might be the game we look back on and say, yeah, that's game that catapulted us to greater things. We'll see.

It is pretty amazing how Romo bounced back from those interceptions.

IMO, that's more telling than the interceptions.

Romo bailed the defense out in the 1st game, the defense bailed Romo out tonight. (so did Nick Folk)

I think it's the best thing that could happen to a team and still win. Of course we'll be talked down before the big game. I think I'd prefer that stance before taking on Goliath.

What's strange is that for once I still had hope with this team in the 4th quarter, even with the shaky QB play. The last 3 years I knew we would have folded.

Remember, Romo also came back just before half to put us in position to score a field goal to keep us within 7. Seems like when he's left alone to just do his thing, he thrives.

Yeah he's made these bad decisions week after week.:rolleyes:

I really wish dbair would just **** and move to ES.COM already.

The guy is a someone who just wants to pull folks down. Just put him on ignore.

Most of us already have.

All he did was tie the Cowboy record for int's...Held by Troy Aikman. What do you think of him?

Well he got 6 turnovers and still did enough to come back and get the win (Good thing we were playing Buffalo). I hope he has gotten them all out of his system and we can move on from there.

I believe it was in 1992. Our Super Bowl year. ;) Thanks for trying though.

Happened in his last season, the game after his last concussion...Better try ;)
