News: Romo doesn't mention Cowboys are one of the major threats to win Super Bowl

[vlad]

And for those who will not read the article, Romo was quoted saying also:

“If you look at the front seven of the Cowboys, they’re going to be in every game because the defense you just can’t go up and down the field on them. You just can’t. This will be one of their tougher tests this week because their defense will keep them in the game. But you just have to score a touchdown in the second half at the right moment. And if you do, the Cowboys are absolutely in a position in which they can win the Super Bowl.”

That was quite possible the dumbest article I've read.

There is an element here at work that only affects former Cowboys that have become announcers. If the Cowboys are the most polarizing sports team on the planet, does it not stand to reason that all of them, including Aikman, have to bend a little bit more to show their objectivity? Only one waves his pompoms for not only his former team but his former position as well, all about the WR's donchyaknow, and he's the most unprofessional.

The Cowboys opened at a 7 underdog so he's not alone in his assessment and he might be placing a lot more importance on one missing slot WR and TE that has become the QB's binky.

Dak is close to overtaking Romo in just his 3rd year playoffs wise. Why would Romo praise anything. Dak makes it to the NFC championship and that's all she wrote!

And if dak makes it to the SB and win it then you might as well flush anything Romo ever did down the toilet!

Not really. They started building this team for Romo, so we can still thank him for some of the success.

 

[Runwildboys]

I think too many people here want to assign their own petty character flaws upon anyone who doesn't say what they want him to say.

Tony Romo will call the Super Bowl for his first time on CBS . When asked what teams he expects to see in the big game, Romo did not mention his former club.

I think Aikman and Romo both hate the cowboys.

 

[G2]

Lets be realistic here. If you literally had to bet everything you own on this Cowboys team, would you? We are all here pulling for the Cowboys, but strictly from a business mind, very few, if any, would legitimately bet everything on the Cowboys. Romo is a broadcaster now, and he would sound foolish to favor the Cowboys chances right now. He views the Cowboys, as, "almost there, but not quite" and realistically that is where this team is. That said, I do believe in the perfect scenario, playing the perfect games, we could still do it. But I would not bet my farm on it either.

The 92-93 Cowboys? I'd bet the farm on them.

How is betting everything you own on anything realistic?

Come on.
This has nothing to do with his personal feelings about Dak--who he personally likes

Anyway, you and I both know that any playoff wins are team wins.

He went straight home teams as history in this round will bear him out. And 3 of those 4 venues are the toughest to get a win with 1 being the loudest and Brees has never lost a playoff game in the dome. And I think when the Cowboys built the new digs and decided to not open the roof, God moved onto New England to watch His new favorite team play.

I do think the Rams will not enjoy the home atmosphere the other 3 will have and in the GB and PHL games, that seemed to irritate them. Whether a happy or irritated pair of DT's is more formidable, only time will tell.

But not to worry, I am sure that homer idiot Irvin will be all over the Cowboys.

The requirements for liking analysts here is the strangest of all the 32 teams.

I'm sure his and almost everyone else is thinking is that for Dallas win the the Super Bowl, they have to do ALL of the following

• Beat the Rams in LA
• Beat the Saints in NO
• Beat the AFC winner

Doing any one of those is one thing. Any is doable
Doing ALL THREE with no let down is much tougher.
But if people read the article, he did make a case for Dallas winning it all.

Have to play the games. Think New York in 2007. It can be done

 

[Redball Express]

He knows his own history for not getting us to the playoffs as much as he should have.

And this is a different year and team and has grown.

He is just trying not to appear partial in anyway?

That is my take.

And to discuss it points fingers at himself for not winning more.

It's all water under the bridge.

 

[Redball Express]

Can't deny this.

Unfortunately for Romo..

his salary cap hit hurt this team from affording a defense when he was here.

He was working against himself the whole time.

 

[charron]

The odds say we won't make it to the super bowl but that's what makes this year special as we will beat the odds and stomp out everyone!

 

[pancakeman]

In this case, the postng member did not alter the article's actual title for their own amusement.

True. Although the rule doesn’t say “don’t create misleading titles,” it says “don’t use misleading titles”...

 

[3rd_n_inches]

I can’t believe how many comments are based on title which doesn’t ref elect what he actually says

Thats the problem with journalism today

 

[Doomsday101]

That is fine because Tony will get to talk a lot about the Cowboys during the SB game that he will be working for CBS this year when Dallas is playing KC in the SB. lol

I hear you Red, but our current defense is not made up of Free Agents.
We've built it through the draft and almost none were 1st rounders.
We're drafting better now.

His problem was that it started to come together (including even him) when his body was starting give way. Just bad timing.

 

[Little Jr]

The OP didn't make up the title.

What title?

"Tony Romo will call the Super Bowl for his first time on CBS . When asked what teams he expects to see in the big game, Romo did not mention his former club."

"Romo doesn't mention Cowboys are one of the major threats to win Super Bowl"

 

[SoupcanSam]

Come on.

Anyway, yo and I both know that any playoff wins are team wins.

Really I still think Romo should have went further in his era. I mean he didnt have bad teams around him all the time.
