Not Worried...

[UVAwahoos]

Why am I not worried?

1) It's week freakin 2
2) We barely lost with 4 turnovers against a team that's supposed to be highly "disciplined" by their strict coach...with an amazing defense that we lit up. They're apparently supposed to win our division. I see no reason why we can't roll into NY and beat them.
3) Romo may have cost us opportunities tonight, but he's really the only reason that we are relevant in the first place. Anyone who remembers the Bledsoe/Testeverde/etc. days should be quick to appreciate that there would be no way we drive down to take the lead at 31-30 with almost any other QB. The run is not happening if the opponent doesn't have to respect your passing game. A lot of you may be calling for Romo's head, but I'm sure that the D coordinator for NY respected him dearly this entire night. There are at least 26 other teams who would take Romo over their starting QB without hesitation. The guy is pure lethal. Brady is an anomaly. It takes most QBs some time to come into their own. Romo has more than shown that he has the talent to be a top 3 in the league. Even after tonight, he's still top 5. QBs don't grow on trees.
4) Scandrick absolutely sucks. I actually am worried about that. Add in the great Ken Hamlin covering over the top at safety, and we have a great combo there. Hamlin is borderline ********. Scandrick at least tries...even though he can't really tackle or defend. The two combined make me sad. That is something I will admit to being worried about. Ty Law? Pacman? Trade back for Henry?

I will say I'm not worried once I know how Barber is. We've lost focus on that in the midst of the ***** session.

You aren't worried Romo has NEVER learned to take care of the ball and that this defense is still pathetic after all this time? I don't care what week it is. The Giants secondary was banged up. Romo throws for less than 130 and 3 picks.

Look at the Commanders in our own division with an equally maniacal owner. They buy talented players and try to throw teams together, but their QB is absolute garbage, and they're not going anywhere because of it. We were in similar depths before Romo came along. He buries us, but also keeps us alive. I'd rather have someone with proven talent to at least maintain the hope that he can be fixed. There are many other teams who don't have this luxury...no matter how badly they want to win. The only reason we have chances to come back or maintain a lead are because of Romo. Anyone who watched the Cowboys between Aikman's retirement and Romo's first game should very much appreciate this aspect of the story.

Don't be too quick to forget an entire decade of watching our punter run out on the field about 10 times per game. Like I said, this guy is the only reason we are relevant. There are other great defensive players like Ware or tight ends like Witten out there, but Romo is the one reason we have a chance at any time in a game.

You and the rest of the league have something in common. They arent worried about the Cowboys.
