Romo's career isn’t known for heroics, it’s known for ill timed mistakes. Romo would have never made it to week 14 because he would’ve been done with an injury earlier in the season with the OL issues we’ve had. Just look at some of the hits that Dak took on Sunday that had him grimacing. He’s been sacked 31 times this year and has taken numerous hits that would have kept Romo on the turf. Romo missed games the last three seasons he played with injuries. Even in 2014 he was sacked 29 times and missed a game with a back injury, despite great OL play and having the top rusher in the league who set a single season franchise record with over 1800 rushing yards.
Romo held onto the ball too long trying to extend plays which resulted in some of his injuries. Dak has taken some vicious hits this season that would have put an aging, injury prone Romo on IR. He was able to to avoid some hits that Romo wouldn’t have. Do you seriously think Romo would’ve survived the Atlanta game with Chaz Green at LT? Those of you who think Romo would have made it this far into the season without an injury are kidding yourselves. One too many Houdini spins would have had him crumpled on the turf early in the season. Many here are trying to pin this season on Dak which shows how little some of you know about the game.
