Romo has looked better, but the refs were letting the Eagles hold and mug Dez the entire game while we had 12 penalties for 75 yards, plus a bunch of other calls that favored the Eagles. I'll take a win like this any day. The Cowboys looked like Division Champions today. They made the Eagles look like the Jags.

None of Romos INT were his fault today. No, for realz this time.

The Hail Mary..come on. and then.....

Tim MacMahon ‏@espn_macmahon28s
Phillip Tanner took blame for Tony Romo's INT in 2nd half. Broke in instead of out. 34 said Romo acted as leader by yelling at him.

I understand that Tanner ran the wrong route but Romo still gets some blame, IMO.

He has to look before he pulls the trigger.

I think if Orton played this game the score would have been like 35 to 17

If I had a video game machine, I'd put you to the test and simulate it on the All-Knowing Madden, but alas- you're off the hook.

This time...

He's such a reactive player, I don't know if he's capable sometimes.

It's a dual-edged sword.

I actually like it when Tony doesn't have to play an exceptional game for us to eek out a win. Even though it was yet another boring 300 plus yard game for him.

^---Nice. :D

One observation and one question...

• OScan is earning well the contract so many folks blasted Jerry for signing.
• Was Jones kicking for hang time and fair catches or what?

Yo, I dig your style, and for the most part am on your side.
Even on this discussion- but I still would have simulated.

Peace, friend.

It just blows the hell out of me that when the Cowboys win a game, no matter how they get it, something about Romo's game comes up! It's either trolls, simplistic Cowboy fans, or young Madden players.

But, the Romo haters do not appreciate anything he does.

It is fun to humor them sometimes, its why I don't put them on ignore. Its like reading bizarre conspiracy theories by people...entertaining.

I do the same thing. It's actually bizarre what the Romo haters complain about.

I feel sorry for them.

They forgot about Quincy, Chad, Anthony, Clint, Ryan, Randall, Vinny, Drew, and Brad.
Or blacked them out from their collective minds...

I doubt most of the Romo haters never saw those guys play. Some sound like they were just born when QC was playing!

all the dang excuses...his play is on par with every other year

You are the one complaining about Romo! Well, you and some of the other haters.

Oh! Just an FYI...!

The Dallas Cowboys won, on the road, against a hated rival, in a hostile environment. The replay might come on later in the week, don't forget to watch it.

Stay cool...

Im going to start this with something a little controversial. And i never thought id feel this way because i was on this guys bandwagon since before he was on anybodys radar and when 99% of Cowboy fans were on Merrimans jock. Ware is becoming less and less of a necessity to this scheme.

Marinelli is proving that he doesnt need superstars on his DL but guys who go all out and stick to the system. The stick to their gaps and play together. McCoy was a nonfactor today.

Lee and Carter are back 100% and are showing us fans what they thought about these guys coming out of college. Carter had some hickups this yr but he's back. Guy is quick to the ball and is using his head instead of just his athletic ability now. I think he got caught up in trying to make a play and he got burned a few times. Now he's learning stick to his assignment and the plays will come.

Wilcox is growing by the week. He's the future at SS, but i still feel church is a liabilty at FS. Dallas needs to address this, this offseason. Playing Church in certain packages will be better for him and this team.

These RBs Dallas has are not going to cut it plain and simple. There was holes and they just didnt hit them today. Randle IMO is Julius Jones all over. You can see it in his running, and it didnt hit me until i realised the number lol. Wouldnt hurt to bring up Meggett.

Cole Beasly should be ahead of Harris no ifs ands or buts. Should even be ahead of Miles. Austin is an afterthought. CBs just cant seem to stay with Beasly after his intial cut. Quick with great hands.

I think we are seeing the decline of Romo. And its starting to show. He's lost a little on his throws and alot of his accuracy if you ask me. They need to draft his replacement this yr and cut him after next yr. Derek Carr is the guy im hoping for.

Hatcher IDC what anybody says. Is a must sign. He blows up the entire middle of the line. People say he's playing for a contract. First he was playing DE in a 3-4, BUT when they moved him inside he always blew up the middle of the pocket. We are just seeing it consistently now because he is a DT in a 4-3.

Nevis is the guy that does all the dirty work. I love this guys motor.

Harris seems like he found his place and thats special teams. I think this team wanted more from him on the O side of the game but he's not going to produce consistently ever. But in the special teams he's a dominating force. Thats his place and thats where he should stay.

This OL had a so-so game and few penalties on Free but he saved Dallas on his FS at the goalline. Romo was going to be killed.

Carr MO and Scan have really picked up their game. Or should i said are allowed to play their game now with more man up play being allowed by Kiffin. It was obvious that Zone mess was allowing too much inside. This team is going to allow some things but since they switched to more man the payoff has been better results and wins.

This DEF shut down a Offense that killed a good bucs defense just a week ago. With Foles playing QB. Theres no question that Kiffin and Marinelli had a great gameplan today. McCoy and Celek i thought would be the problems but Kiffin made both non-**'n-Factors.

Go Cowboys 1st place


Good post, but be prepared those everyday Zoners homers that will hammer you over your Romo observation....I agree he has hit his ceiling its now about managing his decline. But I thought your post was spot on. This team plays to the level of its opponents not up to its capability.
