Romo was Hit by 2 offensive linemen on pick

[Ring Leader]

Just watched the replay of Romo's pick since it looked so awkward. After replay, here it is: While in the throwing motion Romo was first tripped by Smith, then short arm jammed by Fred. Not an excuse, but it's hard to throw when two of your own linemen are hitting you when you are in the middle of a throwing motion.

he could have been shot in the middle of the play and no one would care

this is his legacy

I would like to find out exactly what was going on during that brief series. They barely beat the play clock on the first play, which hadn't been an issue the entire game.

The bottom line is, that was an AMAZING play for that INT.

Murray was wide open and could have gained some nice yardage... Romo made an ill-advised throw.

The read and decision were the problem. 3 Broncos were converging within 2 yards. There had to be someone else completely wide open.

Murray was wide open. He made a bad decision. It happens but the ghosts that are in Tony's head came to rule the day. He def is a choker but he also is one heck of a QB. Not sure he'll ever get over his ghosts but he is the best QB we have had since Troy and I'll take it over the other choices everyday. Some of you have forgotten how bad we were after Aikman.

Definitely shouldn't have been thrown, but that was a flat out crazy play to make that INT.

The pocket collapsed, so he had no time to survey the field. He also lost acceleration on the pass after getting pinballed with friendly fire while in the throwing motion. Gotta give credit to the Denver guy as well, he made a helluva play.

We don't need excuses for Romo please.. The bottom line is Romo had an amazing game & put up 48 points on their defense. We failed to cover the RB on several huge plays for the Broncos & then after the INT, the defense couldn't stop their offense from getting to the 1 yard line for a chance to tie the game.. The whole defense should be called out, but Sean Lee had an absolutely horrible game and needs to be singled out b/c that guy is supposed to be the heart of this defense & he couldn't hit the right gap-tackle or cover all day today. The stat sheet shows 11 tackles, but that # is going to look like that b/c of the 73 plays ran by Denver.

He dove for the int so let's not make it seem like some NFL Films highlight moment, the fact is Murray was wide open and he made a bad decision which is his trademark in big games.

exactly, Murray was wide open over the middle

 

[Naruto]

What amazes me is why they had such tight coverage on Escobar of all people.

Seriously *** you'd think they would focus on some of the other guys that torched them all game

 

[loublue22]

I agree

 

[JBell]

Yeah it looked like he tripped when I was watching it live...oh well.

I can't wait to re-watch the game.

A lot of fishy things went on..

 

[Boyzmamacita]

The blocking was superb until the last drive. Go figure. Romo doesn't need anyone to make excuses for him, but damn why give up a sack and allow defenders into the backfield on the biggest drive of all?

 

[SDCowboy]

his legacy is deserved. to paraphrase bill parcells, you are what you are.

If he is what he is, then he must be pretty damn good since he had a 151 passer rating today and topped the league in almost every positive category today.

and they will keep going on.

Of course. It's never his fault.
