The Tony Romo Thread

[visionary]

when we are favored, playing at home, at night, it's seems like it's always a LOSS

when we are underdogs, playing on the road, in the day time, it seems it's always a WIN

Well, I will gladly take the next 2 games on the road as wins of I can

They definitely saw something in our O line they could exploit.

Yes. Maybe it was something that got t Fred and Martin confused or off their game. They are young players.

Await the all 22 replays to find out

Interesting that chip Kelly has studied sleep habits and eating habits to get the best out of his players. He said the short week doesn't effect his team. Not the case for dallas.

Since his back surgery, Romo doesn't read progressions....he is looking for the easiest throw to make up for the lack of strength in his legs needed to throw with zip on the ball. He is using the strength in his legs to support that back, and it won't allow him to throw like he did before surgery. I watched every throw in the Giants game and this one, and the balls definitely got to the receivers a tad late in the intermediate routes except for a couple. Well, you get what you paid for.

I honestly believe that 15 years from now, Cowboys fans will finally come to the realization that Romo was a great stats QB and nothing more.

Some people just take longer than others.

In a real world, you don't get 7 seconds to throw the ball, so the line gave him ample time to get rid of the ball, but he can't read defenses so there's that...

Kinda like you can't recognize good to great QB play.

As much as I agree with this, he's been a victim of circumstance too. In another organization, Romo might have been championship QB. He only had a real head coach for half a season with him as a starter and he's never had a front office that put the pieces around him.

This guys been choking for a decade in big games. Bright lights, he withers. Old dogs don't learn new tricks.

Mark Sanchez officially has me scared right now

That's as much on the organization as it is Romo though. The Cowboys aren't a bright lights organization and haven't been in many, many years.

Not totally true, he beat the eagles in the wildcard game in jan of 2010

Passing TD streak is over

Be afraid of Chip Kelly. Sanchez isn't any better than Nick Foles, he just has as a good coach and scheme.

I don't deny that he hasn't always had the best teams around him, but there've been times where the team were good, and he still couldn't get it done.

I've seen "he's better than Aikman" comments, and I just shake my head.

I don't care if Romo throws for one million yards, when it comes to getting a win when you need it, give me Aikman 100 times out of 100.

In fact, give me Danny White over Romo.

Really?

Funny, I doubt we see a special thread about that ending.

Chip Kelly is a heck of a coach. I am willing to admit it. What he has done the last two years with Foles and Sanchez is nothing less than remarkable.

He's not the same Sanchez he used to be..... at the moment.

It is a wash with Danny and Romo with me.

Absolutely not. He's a clown that does it all with smoke and mirrors and eventually when he plays the 1976 Pittsburgh Steelers or 1985 Chicago Bears, he will be exposed as the fraud he is.

Romo's been on two teams that we're "good enough." Three, if you count this one. The other teams he's been on he's had to drag kicking and screaming. He did his part in say 2012 to blow the big game, but the team was only there because he got them there.
