Romo probably puts that ball to Dez in the first quarter in the right spot. It's a touchdown, not a field goal, and totally changes the complexion of the game.
He'd probably throw a couple though. If he had a history in the playoffs I'd probably agree with you but we've lost plenty of playoff games with Tony and he hasn't played in over a year.
He had 4 TDs, 0 INTs and a 9.7 YPA in the 2014 playoffs...
Everyone keeps bringing that year up but I have many other playoff games and elimination games to look at. Nobody knows if that's the Tony we would have gotten. He hadn't played in over a year and didn't look great in the last meaningful game he played in. He was also better in 2014 because of the running game. If we would have stayed with the running game Sunday we would have had a better chance at winning. Have no idea why they thought throwing the ball everywhere was a good idea. Zeke was well rested. He should have been used more. Run him down their throat.
We know exactly what Tony we would have gotten, we saw him in Philly. I don't care what he did 7-8 years ago, it's irrelevant. Just the same way that Matt Cassel's one good year with the Pats was irrelevant when we signed him, what Tony did or didn't do in the playoffs that long ago has no bearing on what he would have done this year.
Philly? That was a scrimmage. He wasn't even touched. And they got him out of that game fast. They know he's fragile...didn't want to take a chance.
Please, the Eagles didn't play it as a scrimmage, and him being fragile has absolutely nothing to do with how well he could/would have played against GB.
That's why when Dak played, he only scored 3 in an entire quarter? They took him out of that game because if he kept scoring tds, they'd have to face uncomfortable questions.
No they were afraid he'd get hurt in a meaningless game.
