turned on the game yesterday & saw tony romo was playing. whatever happened during practice this week keep it up. now about the coaching.

Romo is still trowing wild passes. He isn't out of it yet. He still needs work.

^ imo he still he had some kinks but a heck of a lot better than what we have seen.

true but next week could be a totally different story.

It might have helped that he was playing the Chiefs.

Dallas won a game they were supposed to win. Doesn't matter how you win just do it. Should have won against new york and Denver. One play was the difference in this game. The same as the games against the two losses Dallas has. We could easily be 5-0 or 2-3.

I think 20/34 for 351 yards and 2 TDs is a pretty good day. Hopefully he can keep it up. Go Cowboys

Romo is not the problem. He is just the easiest scapegoat. The biggest problem imo is the Dallas D has been unable to get key stops late in ballgames.

well their is no doubt that Romo has a chemistry problem with his wideouts.


at least our losses are at the hands of good teams.....both are 5-0

And the Cowboy wins are against teams with a combined record of 1-13. What does that tell us?

that we win the ones we are supposed to....so far.

Definately, considering they don't play next week .

He's not out of the woods yet. Anyone can have a great game against T.B. and K.C. .

Atl, Phi (2), GB, Was (they look as bad as the Cowboys), NY, and NO are still coming up. They have a gimme against Oak, but the rest are going to be tests. I'm hoping for the best with the Cowboys, but I see some tough games for them. I'm not going to say they're going to be all right, until they prove it.

Look at the other side of that argument. The combined record of the teams the Cowboys have lost to is 10-0. Just shows that the Cowboys at this time are not an elite team but they are also not a horrible team.

Totally agree. IMO they are a better than an average team & definitely have the talent to move up.

I just noticed that Dallas has more successful passing plays over 40 yards than any other team in NFL. Interesting because Dallas does not have an offense geared to the deep ball. It goes to show "I think" that with more of an emphasis on running the defense is losing the battle on the run after catch. Which I believe would be due to loading up more to stop the run.

Credit Miles Austin's long runs after the catch for saving Romo in this game.

Romo needed no saving in this game. He performed very well.

Romo did play better. With the bye week coming and the possibility of getting Felix Jones back, the Cowboys should be in good shape for the next game. Tashard Choice is the real deal and has been impressive on a regular basis.

I agree with late stops, but Dallas defense has been very good last three weeks overall. Romo is a problem, Jason Garrett is a bigger problem, injuries are an even bigger problem, Jerry Jones is the biggest problem.

He is still terrible and I will not root for the Cowgirls until he is gone.

Romo is far from terrible. He's in the middle of the pack in the NFL with the potential to move way up. Maybe faster if they get rid of Garrett, who is trying his best to turn the Cowboys offense into the Giants offense. That might sound good to some, but it's not.

Cool .... who needs fans like you anyway? Surely you can find a couple other Cowboys you don't like. Then maybe when Romo retires you still won't care about being a fan then either. Just one more form of a Band-wagoner. Don't need em!

It did.

Romo COULD be a great quarterback. He has the arm, he has the aim, and he has the athleticism. He's talented as hell. The problem with Romo is not something that can be fixed on the field. It is his choices. They have gotten worse. He was a better QB 2 years ago than he is today. That is a pure indication of something going on upstairs. He needs to get his head right, change his diet, or get off of whatever he's on, maybe all of those.. It is mental. He's choking, making bad picks, etc. His head is not where it should be in the game. Sometimes, that is a fatal flaw in a quarterback. Sometimes it can be fixed. I applaud Jones and Phillips for keeping him around and trying to work that out of him. In the mean time, put someone in there with his head on straight.

At least they got rid of TO......and who care or gives a fly'n flip if I'm a "Band-wagoner"? Not like it really matters. I just really don't like Tony Romo. He's just not very good.....and way too much media attention.

Looks like your stuck with Tony . The media attention goes with being QB on the most popular team in the world. I sure Romo did not expect the amount of attention he has received either. Most people will never understand the amount of pressure that is on. And it has nothing to do with just competing.

I would never have guessed you didn't like Romo. You feel inspired to let us know in more than one post. Contrary to your beliefs.. Tony has proven he is very good.

i bet you'll still watch the game when it's on...

romo has his problems. id still take him over ryan leaf, clint stoerner, anthony wright, quincy carter, etc.

I haven't watched one Sunday afternoon game all season. It just doesn't interest me.....plus....I haven't had time to watch football on Sundays.

So if you haven't watched one Sunday afternoon game then how do you know how well Tony Romo plays?

Yes the Dallas victories are over teams with a 1-13 record...The giants who are unbeaten..their opponents records? 6-19 with 5 wins coming from two teams.

He has also proven that he buckles under pressure in "big game" situations.

That is not proven. Because he has played well and won in several big game situations. Did you even watch Seattle and new york games? Tony drove the ball 76 yards in 3 min. to help put Dallas in the position to win. A mishandle on a very slippery ball was not a common occurance for Tony. He has always handled the snaps well. One play does not mean he choked. The new york game the next year. Dallas had already beaten them twice that year. Tony played like an average QB and Dallas controlled the ball most of the game. Tony had one int for the game. Hardly choking. Dallas had another high penalty game. Hardly Romo choking.

Sometimes defenses just step up and play better than a QB for a game. It happens all the time and is no indication of choking.

Because I've watched him in previous seasons. He's terrible........ He'll never take the Cowboys where they want to go.

Then your living in the past.

haha....ok....you win. but IN MY OPINION.....he is not a very good quarterback. He's had time to prove himself.

The actual facts don't support this. His bad decision % isn't terrible this year...it was actually higher during the 2007 season (still plenty of time left in this season, so it's in flux).

He also averages less turnovers-per-game than Ben Roethlisberger, who has won two Super Bowls. If there are quarterbacks getting to the SB that average more mistakes per game, this can't be a reasonable conclusion has to why the Cowboys can't get there.

But I doubt anyone will look at their pass defense. No, that can't be the reason.

You make it too easy for me.... it's all about the numbers. I'm not going to try too convince you. You can look for yourself. The facts are there. Enjoy. Oh let me know if you find a better one for Dallas.

I have....he plays for the Colts.....

Because their trading him?

Did you give him the benefit of the doubt when he tanked his first 4 playoff games also?

I doubt they ever do....that wouldn't be very smart would it? Yes, I gave him the benefit of the doubt. I always looked at him as a great quarterback who couldn't get the monkey off his back. I don't see Romo as being one of those great quarterbacks.

Only numbers that matter are 0-2 in playoffs, and terrible record in December, and no wins in last game of season, which usually means playoffs are not.

Why are these the numbers that matter? Surely other quarterbacks have overcome such inconveniences and made it to the Super Bowl.

Let's see...Peyton did it. Eli did it. Rex Grossman did it. Kurt Warner did it.

and Romo won't.

These numbers only matter because they are the ONLY ones that they can use in an argument. Dallas can win Super-Bowls with Romo and these guys would just say "well Dallas didn't play anyone in the playoffs or Super Bowl so it don't count". Or that it had nothing to do with Romo. His team played well in spite of him.

Have they won a playoff game with him ? NO

Have they won a super bowl with him? NO

get back with me when he does, otherwise, keep playing with the stats if they makes you happy.

So you know for a fact he'll do neither anytime in his career, whether it's with Dallas or not? What is your method of extrapolation?

Did you also put this theory to test with the other quarterbacks mentioned?

All I've said was I like my chances with this quarterback rather than a lesser quarterback. That's just simple math to me. I hear Rex Grossman is available.

Not talking about other quarterbacks, talking about Romo. Until he does it, he can't do it, prove me wrong, but don't think he will.

Oh so now the "standards" change. We have different sets for different QB's. It doesn't work that way. My statement earlier will be true when the Cowboys start winning in playoffs. You guys will find another reason or way to discredit.
