Would it be hard to defend Romo from this point on if we go 0-4 in December

if romo don't win more playoff games than one he will just be a footnote in nfl and he don't have many more seasons to win so if he don't win this year its pretty much over for him because this is such a year to year league. you just don't know what next year will be.

Okay - you're the GM. What's your solution and how do you explain it to the current players and fan base. Just curious.

I dont think anyone denies this...just that you cant put 8-8 or their December record solely on him.

well if he can't match what the other offense is doing then what good is he during this time of year? There will be times when the opposing team will go up 14-0 which means our QB has to match that.

The man has been outstanding for most of the season.
Don't overreact over a bad outing.

He doesn't have to go to the SB, just get in the playoffs and win atleast 1 game or 2. We have to atleast be able to compete for a SB instead of constantly missing the playoffs

Our D isn't good enough to win 2 playoff games. Teams know our weaknesses. Its that time of year....

I try to be objective when watching the Cowboys. Been watching them for almost 40 years. I have never caught more heck from being a huge well-known fan since he's been the QB. I have watched every game he's played and he has made mistakes but Tony Romo never has been the reason this team has lost out on a playoff run or SB win. He's never had a Defense and it should end there. But I'll also throw in the fact that he's had to play under a bad head coach/play caller and one who is learning. It's quick and easy for the haters to blame Tony. Its also ignorant......

Yes i am panicking because I thought this would be the first year that we could not go 8-8 since it would have been 9 wins before December

But now it looks like everything is being set up for another December Collapse

Merry Christmas.

It's not necessarily the December stats, it's the "win and you're in" games and playoff games where Romo's stats suffer and are well below his regular season stats.

You won't see Percy post jack squat about those stats because they paint Romo in a negative light and Percy always wants to paint him in a positive one. I enjoy the countless hours he puts into finding stats that should point to Romo being an elite QB but the sad fact is he isn't and can't be counted on in big games.

Glad you got my attention.

You said, "If Romo plays at a high level (equal or above his regular season level) in a win and in game/ playoff game and we still lose this year, I will be the first to come to his defense"

And yet, you can take that same distinction and apply it to each of the last three regular seasons. How does that work?

Against a LOSING TEAM!!. It's time for him to show up against a winning team

Been thinking the same thing about our boy wonder head coach......................7 of our 8 wins are against sub 500 teams...............and you guys think we are making progress under Opie...................LMAO
