What makes this thread drama? Just curious really.Can you guys do your jobs and put these stupid threads in the drama section or some romosexual section.
That was the year Romo took over for Bledsoe. They were barely good enough to get to the playoffs at 9-7, so even without the botched FG hold at the end I don't see them getting past the Bears and Saints. The Saints blew us out 42-17 at home at the end of that season.2006. The team was good enough to go to the Super Bowl.
No, it wasn't. It had glaring weaknesses in speed on defense. We could not cover any running backs out of the backfield at all. Sean Payton exposed their D in December and other teams followed suit.2006. The team was good enough to go to the Super Bowl.
1000 percent agree.The only time I was really down on Romo was the RG3 on 1 leg game and winner got in the playoffs and he threw the pick in the flats when trying to get Murray the ball.
That should've been it for Garrett as well but here we still are.
+3 points are hereby duly awarded fer' the never utilized term ofTeams win and teams lose together.
So yes. He shoulders some of the blame. No way around it.
Was it mostly his fault? Or even approaching some scintilla of being a significant share of his fault?
No. But it's a team game. He's part of the team. So he shoulders a share of that burden. That's just the way it is.
2014 team had a shot, but a slight one. We will never know thanks to that stupid no catch call!!!!!He never played on a SB winning caliber team. There were always glaring weaknesses even with the handful of really good teams he played on. So no, not his fault.
Cabo didn't do $#!+.
People want to make the QB the hero when a team wins and the villain when they lose. Reality is almost never like this. Winning one title requires both a great team and a fair share of blind luck (especially with injuries.) Winning multiple titles requires a great organization top to bottom, from ownership on down.
Stop me when I say anything that sounds like the 2006-2016 Cowboys.
It's not a coincidence that the great quarterbacks have great coaches and vice-versa. Aikman had Jimmy Johnson. Staubach had Landry. Montana and Young had Walsh, Brady had Belichick. This isn't a coincidence.
Try to slot Garrett in there and get back to me.
Do I put Romo on the level of the all-time greats? NO. But I do put him on the level of very good players who could have won a title as part of an organization that wasn't run by frauds at "GM"/HC/OC/DC/etc. for his entire tenure.
When has a team as organizationally fraudulent as the Cowboys won a Super Bowl?
He was at fault, but his wasn't the greater fault.Was that Romo's fault? Just curious... & very interested in your perspectives.
Sure it was. Teams with weaknesses win the Super Bowl. Nobody thought Philly could win last year when Wentz went down. Most thought they were surely going 1 and done in the playoffs, especially with how bad they looked with Foles at QB when he first took over.No, it wasn't. It had glaring weaknesses in speed on defense. We could not cover any running backs out of the backfield at all. Sean Payton exposed their D in December and other teams followed suit.
Our best Romo team with a legit chance to win a Super Bowl was probably the 2009 team. We were playing really well at the end of the season (especially on defense) and may have beaten the Vikings in the playoffs if not for the early injury to Flozell Adams which caused us to have to reshuffle the offensive line in the hostile Metrodome atmosphere and a chance to go the Super Bowl.
Negatory! C-17 tramp steamer of the variable air streams,,, as that 2014 run( gifted a bit,albeit in the DETROIT game) was a LEAGUE authorized hose job up in Green Bay,as THEY Dictate outcomes & who advances & if that isn't obvious enough by now, then my goodly esteemed & highly admired forum friend? We are rolling side by side in parallel universesThe only time I was really down on Romo was the RG3 on 1 leg game and winner got in the playoffs and he threw the pick in the flats when trying to get Murray the ball.
That should've been it for Garrett as well but here we still are.
Anyways... No.. He's been on offenses that were good enough but his defenses were for the most part terrible.
2014 the run game was so good that it gave us a chance but eventually the defense got exposed.
I posted this a while back. Between D Brees, A Rodgers, B Favre and S Young they played a total of 52 years and won a super Bowl 4 times - that equates to a 7% chance of winning for 4 of the best QB's to ever play the game. Throw arguably one of the best passers ever into that mix who did not get a Super Bowl (Marino - 17 yrs) and the percentage chance goes down to 5.7% - 1 out of every 20 years!Was that Romo's fault? Just curious... & very interested in your perspectives.
You're playing stupid.What makes this thread drama? Just curious really.
