If Jason Garrett/Linehan had made that call what would you do?

If the Cowboys were down at the goal line and they did choose to pass, the only option should be a fade to Dez. Otherwise you run behind the best OL in the league.

Carroll got too cute and it cost them.
 
I don't know what I would've done.

Maybe called the whambulance or went and pick up a whamburger and some French cries

But one thing I do know is that the Internet would have exploded
 
There's no doubt in my mind it would have been more about Romo than it would be the call.

Nobody outside of here knows Scott Linehan. The entire planet knows Tony Romo.

If it did happen that way, I would definitely fear for Romo's life. Best thing to do at that point would either trade Romo to a team like Buffalo were he could die away in obscurity or convince him to retire. He would never be able to play another game in Dallas under that scenario. I would forever feel sorry for his legacy.
 
Has anyone heard if Wilson called the play or did it come from upstairs??
 
The bad thing about it is Romo probably would've changed the play from a run to a pass and threw a interception. Murray would've took off his helmet and started going crazy. Romo would've Started pointing to Terence Williams for not crossing the corners face. Mickey Spagnola would've blamed it on the fans for some reason. And we would still be getting ready for the combine in a couple of weeks and talking about re-signing Murray and Dez when free agency starts.
 
Ricardo Lockette is the Seahawks' 5th receiver (including Willson at TE) who was bumped up a spot after Richardson got hurt vs. the Panthers. That would be like Romo throwing to Dwayne Harris or Devin Street in that situation. Would be a disaster.

Or just like when Romo threw back to back slants at the goaline to Sam Hurd against Champ Bailey that were both incomplete.
 
I'd go to the fridge, crack open a cold one, smash it, then proceed to repeat those steps repeatedly until I black out.

After I woke up, I would then repeat those steps again with the same ending of blacking out.

I figure after doing that a few times, I would probably be ready to go back to living life.
 
Imagine the Cowboys were in that exact same situation, and Jason Garrett/Linehan had called a pass that was picked off instead of running it three straight times, what would you have done? How would you have reacted. My 14 yr. old son speculated that he would have to call 911 to send me to the emergency room from having a heart attack. While I don't have heart problems, I think he was right. Given JG's penchant for calling passes in that situation and the Romo choke label, I think if that had happened to us, I would absolutely pass out right when it happened. It would have been the worst possible scenario for the Cowboys to lose a SB....I would much rather lose by 30.

How would you have reacted?

they make that call all the time to Dez, to TW to Beasley, Harris, and of course to Witten. difference is they can know how to get their body in front of the defender.
 
Had we lost like that I would probably be organizing one of the largest protest ever.
 
T Williams has caught 4 TDs this yr on that same play design but for the title they would've lined it up and played smash mouth football like they did all yr.
 
definitely felt like something we would do, though not this year

I probably would have stared at the wall for a long while
 
gone insane....
and I still concern myself with those kinda of calls.
although its been somewhat successful... I still go nuts when I see an empty backfield on 3rd and short....
 
Same exact situation and results had happened to the Cowboys? I would have maxed out my credit cards and spent every penny on pitchforks and torches while handing them out on the way to storm Valley Ranch.
