Hard to forget that game or the 44-6 debacle against Philly in 08 that kept us home for the playoffs. That was another horrible game for Romo.
what about the Vikings game?
That and the Vikings games are two of the most disappointing losses.
The thing I remember most about the Vikings game was our defense was pathetic. T Newman would not play press coverage in third & moderate or short. I don't know if it was a coach mandate & he was following it to the letter as a protest but they were just giving them first downs. He wasn't even trying.
If I was doing that I would be doing it to Dak like all his haters do. It wasn’t all on Romo or Dak. Romo was awful vs Washington, Philly and Minnesota. Two were elimination games and one was a playoff game. Either your memory is really fuzzy or you don’t want to remember how bad he was. The team/defense also played awful which contributed to his performance.
I can separate individual play versus team play. You are talking about things that happened almost two decades ago. Unless you have watched them recently how can your memory be any clearer than mine? Often when we revisit after a significant period of time we realize our memory isn't exactly how we would characterize the events today.
All you have to do is look at his numbers. Against Philly in 2008 he passed for under 190 yards and had one INT and two fumbles. He only completed 54% and his passer rating was 55.8. Against Minnesota he passed for under 200 yards with an INT and 3 fumbles. Our OL fell apart but Romo couldn’t just take the sack, he kept fumbling. He completely lost his poise. His passer rating was 66.1. Against Washington in 2012 he had 3 INTs. He completed only 54% with a passer rating of 55.9. Fans trying to spin he played well in those games can’t be taken seriously.
The offense scored 3 points lol.
The offensive line was awful in the Minnesota game. Romo was sacked six times and hurried nearly three times that much. Minnesota was a top ten defense and had one of the better defensive lines in football. There were times the defensive line was in the backfield in like two seconds.
