I think that was after the option route where Romo threw outside and Roy went up. Can't know for sure, but I still think Roy made the right option there. If Romo hits him in stride, Roy has only one safety between him and the endzone. Possibly a TD there.
Then if Romo isn't completely off on those other two "drops" by Roy, you're looking at 5 catches for 80+ yards and 2 TDs.
I agree that was 100% the correct call by Roy and Romo missed it, costing the team a huge play and probably a TD (I can't remember how that drive finished right now).
If I'm wrong and Romo's read is what the Cowboys were going for, then Garrett needs to rework how his systems option routes. It's pretty stupid in that situation not going for the big play which would be about 3 times easier to complete than the average gain. Roy's route is also a much better route for him to be running anyway.
Some of the problems are on Roy, some are on Tony, and sometimes it's both. Roy needs to stop with the drops, Romo needs to stop missing so bad sometimes, and they need to get on the same page the rest of the time.
