Even when those players are healthy, how can Romo get the ball to his receivers when he is always running for his life? It's a wonder they have the receiving stats that they do!
How can Murray run the freaking ball when his line cannot open up holes? How the hell can a defense with all the injuries on the starters last year get turnovers and give more opportunities for the offense?
You know why? Because some think it's a one man show!
By your logic in this post how does he (Romo) have the yards you and all the Romophiles hang your hats on?
Your position of "this is a team game" would be more persuasive if you didn't follow that with your excuse riddled posts like this one about Romo.
Your agenda is clear.
My contention is the Washington game falls in his lap for the last pick. Momentum turned and the defense could not prevent the loss because it came so late and in such a critical point.
Not all games are that way, but this one surely was.
Some who wish to argue stats claim that a pick, is a pick, is a pick.
But the premium on an interception in the waning minutes of a win or go home game has a higher value for both teams - positive and negative - because of the little time left to rebound from the interception.
That Romo pick was a foolish throw and thus he has a lion's share of responsibility for that turnaround which ended up being a loss.
This does not absolve the rest of the team.
But this does focus on Romo's gaff that is clearly under the national microscope and harkens back to other turnovers in critical games.
And that lends him a reputation - right or wrong - that is assaulted on this site. But clearly where there is smoke...
