OK, in order for you to see what I am talking about follow this path to find the video:
1) go to www.nfl.com
2) go to the videos tab and click on teams
3) go to the Dallas Cowboys team videos
4) click on the video that says the final score BAL 33 DAL 24 (5:05). There is a photo of Ray Lewis in the icon.
I could not post the proper link here.
So I want to talk about Romo's 1st interception. Is is a bootleg to the right on 2nd and 3. Deion Anderson tries to get out into the flat and is manhandled. TO has a go. Roy williams has a climb route across the formation. Witten has a delayed drag across the field. As the play develops, stop the video as Romo is about to release the ball and look at Jason Witten. Give it to him! there is no reason on 2nd down to throw this ball. Set your feet put a little touch on the ball and drop it to Witten on the 40 yard line. I can understand throwing this ball if it was 3rd and long because the end result is no different that a well placed punt. But on 2nd down give it to Witten, throw it away, or get what you can on the ground. This is a prime example of seeing the field when you are on the move and making crucial decisions.
In defense of Tony Romo, I would like to say that I do not place as much blame on him for losses as some do. In my opinion, I do not really get angry at a guy like him for poor decisions. I think that a lot of people forget that Tony Romo is an undrafted free agent that grew in the system here. That is what he is. I don't get all riled up when he plays like it. There are scouts all over this league that had an opportunity to see Romo perform in college and none of them felt that his ability merited him being drafted. Four years ago he was just a guy on the team. He was a practice Quarterback. He was Clint Sternor! All of a sudden he becomes the starter, gets in the spotlight, starts dating hot singers (Underwood and Simpson), signs a huge contract without winning a playoff game and people forget what he is. No doubt he has exceeded expectations, but one has to wonder how low his celing really is. Hopefuly he figues out that he doesn't always have to win the game. Just don't give it away Tony! When you don't turn the ball over we win. It is that simple. Don't make things easier with poor decisions like you made throwing the ball up that result in big plays for the opposition.
