You guys have it right, you don't leave GB even 2 minutes, let alone 4. Different conversation if Dez had just tucked that ball to his chest and gone down at the 2.

I'm convinced Dallas will be right back in the mix next year. They are not losing major players, they should be good. I don't follow them enough to know what their cap situation is, but I read somewhere all teams will be getting more $$$$ than originally thought.

I heard a report that Romo might have to restructure his contract and take a lower salary in order to keep the free agents they need to sign. I think he would do it...what do you think?

The play to Dez worked. A play to Beasley works too. Both were open. But Dez had one on one with a size advantage. 99.999% of the time, Dez wins that and he did. I see nothing wrong by going there. Great read from Romo and a great pass and a great catch. Just according to the NFL, he didn't complete the process.

It would prove he is stupid especially since brady has done this to make sure his team Continues to win

Does it matter honestly. 2 or 4 minutes, GB still had loads of time no matter what to at least time if Dallas scored and got the two point conversion. I still will say there was nothing wrong with going to Dez there and I don't see any problem with Dez going to the end zone. That is what he's suppose to do.

Go to 2:40 seconds in this video. Very similar play to the Packer game.

so you think it is stupid to restructure ones contract to make sure a team stays as intact as possible so they can continue winning?

Players do it all the time, and it isn't stupid. Some players get it, know what it takes and who makes their team run. I've felt some players leave because it becomes more about them than the team, and in that sense, some get selfish. I've seen players leave because they didn't like the offer, and then end up signing for less because they weren't worth what they thought they were.

No I think it would be stupid for Romo NOT to restructure his contract so he can get less money and allow the team to spend more money. That;s what you have to do if you are romo especially since he only has about 2-3 years left
