He was so stiff when he came back in. Tough SOB, but he might've cost us by coming back when he was less than healthy. Looked like a mummy stepping up in the pocket. You really have to wonder what would've happened had they stuck with Weeden. Seemed like Washington was caught off guard. Plus Weeden was just sticking with the plays called and not getting caught in Haslett's games like Romo.

Good to hear. But it was good to see Weeden can play in a pinch. Romo wasn't the only one off his game some tonight. Dez took points off the board with a huge drop and dropped two others. Murrays bad decision/fumble cost points. Church and McLain whiffed on tackles all night.

Next week will show if we just hit a snag it overachieved the last 6 weeks

I'm just really having a hard time with romo getting back in the game.

I'm fairly certain weedon could have finished the game or ot with more success.

I just don't get it. It's like tony didn't want weedon to come in and have success

That is beyond ridiculous, we got outcoached and ouplayed, that's all there is to it.
Kudos to the Commanders, although I have to say it, I freacking hate that team

C'mon. Romo is a fierce competitor and this isn't the first time he's come in hurt. Recall the 49ers game with the collapsed lung and the Commanders game last year where he threw the game winning pass with a busted back.

Romo should not have gone down like that, if you're going to give up on the play, which was the right call, then go straight down. He turned his back and went to his knees so the guy hit him and his knees hit his back. What I'm worried about now is the blue print Washington gave to the NFL. Now teams may blitz Romo the same way, and Romo won't last if teams do that.

He even played for a few games with a broken finger on his passing hand.

Yes. I think we knew it looked like trouble. He fumbled on a hit that almost gave them the game.

He got the intentional grounding.

And he just wasn't effective. Too late with his throws.

I'm just saying why not let weedon finish and tony is back next week. Why can't romo just give weedon a chance to show he can plsy a little

our oline is good, the problem tonight is our coordinator and coaches did not react, they will see their mistakes and fix it and if a team blitzes in the future it will be lights out deep ball or screen...why that did not happen tonight would be a great question one of our intrepid reports should ask
