Was I just seeing things?

Maybe bbgun can help us out here. But I remember a play late in the game where Romo had a few seconds to look around and then started doing the Peyton Manning choppy feet thing before the throw. Was I seeing things?

Nope, he got happy feet.

Can't blame him. The OL is garbage.

I noticed this as well but only on one play, it was a 3rd and 4 and he had time but was waiting for Austin to beat his man so I'm guessing he got anxious and his feet started moving around like Manning does I suppose. Anyways the play worked out as Austin caught the pass and we got the first down. I'm sure someonoe could make a gif of this play and post it in here. You weren't seeing things.

I saw it to...I think it was on the same drive as the Witten TD, on a play or two before it. I thought he was nervous because it was a critical 3rd down if I remember right.

I only mention it because it's not something I've seen Romo do before. It's like he refused to move from the pocket and hang in there for the throw. I just thought it was interesting.

Yeah that's true, I had never seen him do that before either so I kind of pointed that out when we we're watching the game.

Was it the play where he hit Austin when he was covered for the 1st down? Everyone was blanketed and Austin barely got some room and romo threw it to him. Looked like he panicked a bit because everyone was so covered.

...that is why Garrett can't keep up this 43.5 att/game average...randomization of tip balls for interceptions, incompletions...175 attempts in four games!...is the offense really going to have over 700 attempts this season?

...you are simply not going to make a living throwing it up that many times a game...a team needs to be balanced, given that 75% of turnovers come from the passing game...

...the same thing happened to NE in 2007...the same thing is happening to San Diego...Green Bay...the same thing is happening in New Orleans...defenses are making pass-happy teams go the length with hopes that offenses will self destruct somehow, either through a sack, errant turnover or post/pre-snap penalties...this puts tremendous pressure on an offense from a protection, discpline and execution standpoint...

...Jenkins single-handedly put the Cowboys in bad situations today...his worst game in a Cowboy uniform...Free misses on a cut block of Ball, who tips it for an INT...Romo throws high and off MartyB...tipped for a redzone INT...Columbo falls down after spiking the ball like an idiot leading to the debacle on special teams...the third INT to Witten did'nt matter very much...

At the beginning of the game Davis looked like a matador with his pass blocking on our first two possesions and I remember thinking whoever is his backup needs to be in there. The next thing I knew Holland was in at right guard. Suddenly our offense starts moving the ball and scoring touchdowns. Then in the second half I look down and Davis is back in there. Didn't see any specific mistakes but our offense quit moving the ball again.

Tony Romo is a good quarterback and our O line is not pass blocking well but Romo doesn't seem to be as good of a scrambler as he was when he first took over for Bledsoe.
