Media double standards ridiculous..

[TonyRomo#9]

Sterling sharp, just gets done saying how Romo's big plays were because of shotty coverage, showing a play where Romo Pumpfakes to Witten and hits crayton for a TD because the defender got faked..

then minutes later, praises Rothlisberger on his ability to pumpfake a defender to open up a man deep....

well which is it? same kinda play, how come rothlisberger wasn't benefiting from bad corner play in that his guy got faked? or Romo can't get the credit for pump faking his?? this bias is ridiculous..

when this year is over and we prove everyone wrong i hope they start telling it like it is. not hating on Romo, or our boys just cause.

How many Superbowls has Sharpe won? Exactly... NONE!

Eh, what else is new.

This is a game about disguise. The defense tries to disguise what exactly they are doing so the offense will make mistakes, miss assignments, make bad decisions, etc. The offense tries to disguise what they are doing so the defense can get out of position, create mismatches, and blow coverages.

I'm not sure why people, especially the media can't comprehend that. It's only been going on for the last 30+ years.

Do we REALLY need another thread about the big bad media being mean to our precious Cowboys?

More like 60+ years. Paul Brown was doing this stuff in the late 40s.

True, but I would listen to Dan Marino when it came to football. Lots of great smart players never won a Super Bowl.

I wouldn't use "great smart" in the same sentence with Sharpe.

That boy's as Sharpe as a bowling-ball.

 

[big dog cowboy]

Rod Woodson questioned Romo's accomplishments vs. Tampa Bay, then one minute later praised Brees for his big day against lowly Detroit's defense.

Go figure.

Oh, but there isn't any media bias.

And what makes it so bad is that Shannon is worse.

Sterling Sharp picked the Cowboys to play the Chargers in the Super Bowl this year.

NEVER!!! We love it at The Zone.

 

[Fletch]

Butt sore? Yeah, not sure about that one. But this IS a forum to vent frustrations or whatever. And I agree with what's being said. Romo gets no credit, and guys like Brees and Crapfilledberger get heaps of praise for doing the exact same thing Romo did.

Rod Woodson questioned Romo's accomplishments vs. Tampa Bay, then one minute later praised Brees for his big day against lowly Detroit's defense.

He is still mad over losing to Dallas in the Super Bowl.

Ain't that the truth!

Did I miss something? Is Romo criticizing guys?

The respect comes when you win it all. maybe Sharp is giving respect to a two time SB champ and not a guy who has in the past APPEARED to fold in December.

Winning fixes this for all of us.
