Something I noticed rewatching the TO touchdown catch

Right after the snap (not before, as the media reported), Romo looks at TO and screams out "TO, TO!"

You can actually hear this during the game broadcast. You can see TO turning his head immediately instead of just running up field. Great to see Romo improvising there, and TO making the adjustment.

Instead of an incomplete pass or short gain, Romo and TO turned it into a game breaking touchdown.

What TD catch is this that you're talking about? The long one where the back that was supposed to cover TO blitzed?

Dawkins was lined up on TO but was coming on the safety blitz. I guess they felt he could get there before Romo picked it up and could get the ball out. They guessed wrong!!! :laugh2:

Yes, that one (that's actually the only TD TO caught, although it seemed like more).
