Why Romo keeps breaking clavicle?

[LittleBoyBlue]

Vs Giants it was a pile driving break

Vs eagles he goes down flailing


So I ask the football peeps on here...Malays the deal?

300+ lb men falling on him is my guess.

 

[DogFace]

On this one he seemed to look to fall on his shoulder. Maybe to protect his back? I'm not sure but I'd like him to not do it anymore.

Wolf is correct. Rogers got a pile drive by the white DE from the Bears a couple years back as well. It just happens, freak injury.

Romo is what he is, a 6'2" dude that plays like he is 6'5" 240.

Because he has gotten slammed on it twice?

Backward cap. It's gotta be.

I thought it was because he used to date Jessica Simpson.

The "flailing" may be an accurate description but the execution of the two tackles were essentially the same.

I would love for Brady or Rodgers to get caught in a tackle involving similarly directed force. The sack opportunities are fewer due to their offenses executing faster more consistently though. Even so, tacklers do not tee-off on other name quarterbacks like they do Romo and others. For example, Hardy had an opportunity to tear into Brady during a sack where he had a clean shot at him. It was a solid tackle but Hardy didn't power through the tackle and use the ground to punish Brady. I guess that's respect.

QBs gonna get hit its fact of life. The older you are the longer it takes you to heal. The quicker you will break something.

Waiting for the comment his clavicle is injury prone....

 

[Vtwin]

Obviously its because he doesn't have an elite clavicle. He'll never lead the team to a SB with a second tier clavicle. If only he had an elite clavicle like Eli.

Kinda makes ya think it's time to draft his eventual replacement with a high draft pick next May. Hmmm?

Or just draft a better clavicle.

Nope . It's the shoulder pads he wears.......backwards

Maybe he needs more Magnesium. You might think people with bone issues need more Calcium but without sufficient Magnesium, Calcium is not utilized properly by the body.
