I guess it's better if we win. Maybe we'll get props for beating that tough Panthers team in Dallas.

If we win, Romo will just have beaten a team with an injured QB and still hasn't proven anything.

If we lose, Romo is a bum who cannot win when it counts, nor on the road in the playoffs.

You're pretty much spot on but a lot hinges on how the game plays out.

I'm not certain why this matters at all.

People gotta find a way to complain about things the media says.... before the things are ever said. Nice way to cover all bases as well.

Oh well.

Not that it matters to me at all what people say but this is what I think we would hear:

If we win: MVP RODGERS UNABLE TO PLAY AT 100% IN PACKERS LOSS

If we lose: MVP RODGERS PROVES HE IS GREATER THAN GOD, WINS IN SPITE OF INJURY

I think it will be all about the Packers no matter what. Just like when we beat the Lions, i've heard more lions stuff than anything else.

For me, it was the Detroit game. This organization needed that win, not just T. Romo.

We took a step forward..... We are building a team that can win.... learning to win. Gaining experience in winning playoff games...

Its been a long long time for this organization.

If I gambled I would put money on Dallas this weekend..... I think we have a great shot at winning not only this game, but the next.

But for me; that Lions game gave us direction. We will go into the off season with hope and certain goals for next season.

If we had lost, it would've been "same old Cowboys".

other than the fact I heard a guy on ESPN say exactly that if he cannot beat a team with a QB and a bum leg,,, just yesterday, you have a point

I don't believe this is a narrative outside of Dallas any longer.

And no, i don't care what ESPN says.

I think those that were on the fence are slowly seeing the light

There are others that will never give him a break...have to just accept that.

Just win baby.

It's not just you and not just this circumstance...it happens all the time.

But since you stole someone elses idea and started a thread about it...and your Canadian...I am going to try and figure out how to give you a dislike without giving you a like first.

Hmmm...thinking.

FYI, I don't like the "bum leg" thing, because it seems like Aaron Rodgers is always hurt. He's been hurt in the following years
2006
2007
2009
2010
2012
2013
2014

He's scary either way.

When I read comments from fans of other teams they says the same things this fanbase does. The media disrespects us. They are against us. They like our rivals better.

So who is right in this?

Dallas has a rep of folding in the bright lights. That has a foundation of truth, for whatever reason.

Win the next three games in a row and watch that go away.

Then the real question would be, will the press have a picture like this of Romo and the Lombardi?

Frankly I think Cool Hand Romo will take it in stride.

Just keep winning, but haters will still find a way to hate.
But we won't care, we will be champs, and no matter what anyone says, they can't take that away.
The haters will just have to live with it.

If we don't win, then let them hate too, can always just change the channel, not read or listen to their garbage.
We will just reload, and make them hate some more next season.

Well West Virginians will do what they do.

It's more likely fans perpetuate the supposed short comings in Romo's game by being butt hurt whenever the media doesn't give credit where they believe it's due. Get over it and enjoy what the team is accomplishing.
