Romo took what was given to him, he played an overall efficient game. He really has that spark and I'm confident iwth him at the helm. This is the first time in a long time where I haven't been worried about our 3rd down offense.

We were his worst enemy today.
It seemed every time he would convert a first down, our OL would have a hold....or false start.
How they saw half those holds is beyond me.....they sure turned their heads when Ratliff was tackled on Miami's 20th point.

Romo played better with his feet today then he did with his arm (or his targets did with their hands). He bought time to throw and had some nice scrambles. Some of his passes were off, and he threw into coverage a few times, but he made the plays when it counted and never turned the ball over. I'll gladly take that for one of his less "efficient" games.

..in Romo's game was a direct result of the game Garrett felt would beat Miami.
He was trying to keep the strength of the Fins "D" Taylor and Thomas occupied with short passing and inside running with a lot of play fakes.
It eventually wore them down by attacking them and making them cover their zones down after down.
You could see that by the 3rd quarter..they were clearly a step slow.
And I like the fact thay whether we are ahead or behind..we continue to run the ball and not let the defense tee off on Romo.
This is as valauble to the success of this offense as much as anything.
Way to many times over the last 4 years..we'd completely stop being able to run the ball and exposed the QB to pressure every down.
I'm actually more impressed with the adjustments Garrett and Romo had to make this week than last week.
This was supposed to be a litmus test going into Chicago.
I think we passed.

I thought Romo was very impressive. He handled the pressure particularly well - he could have and should have been sacked several times, but rather artfully evaded the rush. His TD pass to Curtis was pretty astounding. His TD pass to Owens was quite nice. Romo did a fine job of avoiding negative plays. I'm quite pleased with his performance.
