Do you think Robinson was interfered with or maybe stopped on the route?

In the words of Michael Irvin, if it is a slant, then Int is on WR mostly. Even if can't run the slant, you never let the CB beat you to the ball, at least bat away the ball. So it was mostly on Robinson, but also on Romo too in a way.

But hard to fault Romo on that one too much, IMO.

I though so. Watched the game at a sports bar without sound so I have no idea what our commentators had to say about it.

Bang bang play that in real time gets called either way.

The CB was in his rights as he beat Robinson to the spot.

Robinson has to fight through the CB to make sure the ball isn't intercepted.

The CB really made a remarkable play to first catch that ball and then return it for a TD. He'll probably not make a play like that the rest of his career and I don't think we'll see a play like that in the NFL again this year.

I think part of the problem is that Romo doesn't know Robinson's limitations yet. He has a reputation for being injured and soft (doesn't do well with physical CBs).

We'll have to see how they do the rest of the season but I'm not holding my breath about him to turning into a great WR. There's a reason why he's on his fourth team in five seasons.
 
While I was really upset with Tony for his decision on the other two picks I really felt like this particular pick was more on Robinson for not positioning himself better to make a play to at least knock the ball down.

This is the kind of play where Michael Irvin (and no I'm certainly not saying anyone in Dallas is like Mike and that's probably part of the problem) would have made sure he knocked the ball down for Troy.

Sometimes I feel like our receivers, and I mean all of them not just Robinson on this play, won't fight to make a play to at least knock a ball down, when they could and should, and just let defenders make a play on a ball.

Maybe that's just me though. Sometimes your receivers have to bail your QB out as well.

attention to detail.

This piss me off so much even though he got over one hundred yards receiving which I believe DeWayne Harris or Jessie Holley could've did.

I believe it is disrespect to our "IN HOUSE" players to bring and "OUTSIDER" in just to start over Jessie Holley who just recently had a game-winning catch and Dewayne Harris who I believe beside Bryant and Austin is the best wide receiver on the team.
 
Slant probably isn't a good route for someone with Robinson's build (tall and lanky).

Oh gawd, another Holley fanboy. Holley is a ST player, that's it and he hasn't even made any plays on ST this year. He made a big play in SF game because the niners thought so little of him that they left him wide open and even then, he was ran down by a guy who was 20 yards behind him. Laurent Robinson is far and away the Cowboys 3rd best WR and it's not even close.
