You guys know i love Romo. They one thing i think he needs to work on is being a little less excited to start the game. Seems like it takes him awhile to settle down.

Really thats my only gripe right now about him.

Only other thing he can work on, but during the offseason, is work on his mechanics and accuracy.

You know speaking of excited. Anyone ever watch Philip Rivers talk to the press? This guy always seems very excited. He has been playing great and all, but I would be worried if my QB was that excitable. Hmm, I wonder if you were to take away LT, would he begin to crator?

Experience. It was a good thing for him to get a win at home. He's seen both sides now.

I'd like to think that we in the crowd gave him some help with the noise, though.

The crowd sounded unreal on TV and on the radio. Really enjoyed it. Definitely a playoff-type atmosphere.

The funny part is I think Romo all but single-handedly made the crowd that electric. His presence/emergence has truly changed the "feeling" of this franchise.

Not for us in the crowd. Actually, we felt that the offense was really stifled in the first half - and tried to stay quiet.

We were electric and excited because we knew this team could do well.

But we really got lowd during defense, especially in the second half (the sideline was really getting us into it - Hoyte was energetic, Carpenter, from OSU, really wanted the crowd. God knows he does).

We actually got louder the more Manning did his dancing stuff presnap - that was the most fun, hoping it helped confuse him.

But no - Romo really didn't do much to get us going until the second half, mostly the long pass to Fasano.

If anything - we were deflated by the INT and the near INT called back. Anyone who saw Romo throw that first INT was wondering what the heck he was thinking - we all saw it, and it was an obvious dumb decision.

That is EXACTLY the same problem Favre had early in his career (throws would be too high, etc...)

I dunno, he was very excited coming on the field when it was all tied up at 14's. He seemed to have done well that drive. :)

Absolutely. Like many of us said in NY. Even after he threw the picks, the team still played hard with him. With Bledsoe you just didn't think we would win games. With Romo, the team and the fans feel like we are always in a position to win.

After yesterday, does anyone on this board trully feel we can't win every game we play?

When was the last time you expected a Dallas win each weekend?

I'm not sure I'm there yet.

But the difference is I don't fear the let down will be the QB, I'm more worried every time I see a yellow flag or the opposing QB let go of a 50 yard bomb. Or the FG unit for that matter.

Leader. No other way to put it. Romo has his guys believing in him and playing for him. Thats huge.
