Yes, Romo played like absolute crap.
Yes, it should have been a blow out.
But they won, and what an ending!
(Hopefully they worked out all their kinks in that horrible display and will be ready for the Pats next week.)
The Pats are gonna destroy them!
(I promise I'm not a bandwagon fan, I'm from New England :thumbsup:)
Seriously though, I think as well as Dallas has played, they won't be able to stand up to some of the stronger teams in the NFL, the Pats included in that list. I like the Cowboys, I enjoy seeing them do well, but they're playing above a level that I think they can sustain for the duration, as tonight's game showed. The Pats on the other hand should be able to consistently play this well, and I gotta put my money on them.

wow that was the best game ive seen all season omy god was that exiting
For excitement it was a great game but the Boys were looking past the Bills and if they werent then they have issues. Romo didnt do well when working near his own end zone and that could prove to haunt him terribly. He already has shown crumbleability in a few tight situations. I like Romo though, easily a guy I can root for with his history, but I do not like how some have called Farve "Romo like" recently it should be the other way around.
Thing is, Bills suck and I would be a bit concerned with that game last night. Even after last night the Bills are ranks 31/31 D/O and I realize stats dont tell it all but thats pathetic to be nowhere in at least one of those, even like 20ish in at least one.

Hm, I've never heard it said that way. Calling Favre "Romo like" is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. He's too much of a legend to be compared to Romo. But when I watch Romo play I can often see why he is compared to Favre.

Yes, it was very pathetic that the game was that close. I'm somewhat comforted, though, by the fact that everyone else played decent except Romo.
The Romo/Farve deal was mentioned in the pregame.

I almost died twice watching that meltdown take place ...
:grin:
Dallas is +5 in Vegas???
Those boys are generally right but this one looks to be either a full shootout like 35-34 or a blowout for NE if their D can play well. Look for NE to not go on 4th down around the 50, they saw last weeks game they will try and pin them deep and put Romo in a position he has failed in for sure.

Thinking Romo will have a repeat of last week is just foolish.
As is assuming he won't...

Against the #31 D he has issues and you want to count on him not having similar issues in a similar situation vs a much better D?
Belichick is hands down the best schemer in the game. There is nobody even comparable and he will bring something Romo has never seen. There is a darn good chance that he gets very rattled very quickly. He is still a youngin in the game and he still has a hell of a long way to go before we go putting him in the Hall and Belichick has rattled certain to be Hall of Famers with his schemes in the past and he has NEVER had this good a team............NEVER.

/sigh
Yes, I do want to count on him not having similar issues in a similar situation vs a much better D. You know why? Because he didn't have ANY issues the first 4 games in a similar situation vs a much better D.
If you think the Bills game was anything more than a bad day for Romo then I'll just stop posting now because there is no point arguing against that much ignorance. Let's make a deal. If Romo has a game as bad as last week against the Patriots then I'll stop posting for a month. But if he doesn't, you stop posting for a week. Actually, let's change it to if Romo has a game as bad as last week against any team the rest of the season.
If you honestly think that Romo's performance is going to turn into the norm, that is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard in regards to sports.

Someone is still bitter because he found out about his relative and I.

What's not ridiculous is the game's #1 play caller exploiting a guy who had a rough go last week. Romo will be a little shell-shocked after last week's showing. He'll be thinking, in the back of his head, "don't do it again". If anyone, anyone, can take advantage of that, it's the Pats: they will know exactly how and why things went astray.
I'm not saying Romo's not a great QB, I'm just saying it's naive to underestimate the Pats coaching.
Neither one of you can stop posting. I'll have nothing to read!
If you honestly think that Romo's performance is going to turn into the norm,
Not a single soul said that or implied that and if you cant figure that out you shouldnt try using any form of the word ignorant!
