"How bout them Cowboys"?

[First24]

Romo has to move on from the Cowboys. I don't think he's a bad QB, I think too many expectations were placed on him since his emergence and he's not the type of person who can handle it.

If he were to play for another team that needed a good QB; like say a Arizona (prior to Kolb), I think he would do fine and could possibly lead them to the playoffs.

The QB of "America's Team" and all the implications and expectations that brings is simply too much for him. I hope I'm wrong and he can overcome, but there's been too many late mistakes in big games to dismiss.

Did you know "How Bout them Cowboys" was derived from "How Bout them Dogs", from the University of Georgia Bulldogs in
Athens, GA ? Gotta hand it to ole Jimmy Johnson, he was a slicker.
If it wasn't nailed down, he'd grab it.

Look I'm not a Romo guy; at the end of the day he will be remembered just below Danny White on the Cowboys QB scale; not Roger and not Troy, but much better than the likes of Chad Hutchinson and Steve Pelluer.

For those anxious to get in on the Andrew Luck sweepstakes please go talk to the 49ers and Bengals. San Fran has wasted the better part of a decade on Alex Smith and after the disaster that was Akili Smith I'm not sure how many QBs the Bengals have torn through prior to getting to Dalton and they still may not be done.

I'm just saying Romo may not be lighting the world on fire, but he throws for over 300 yards on a regular basis and there are about a dozen NFL teams that would be glad to have him.

Our GM is our problem and everyone knows it. Love Jerry as an owner, but good Lord he needs to step away from the game a bit; he's got more in common with Al Davis than Mark Cuban right now and that's scarey.

I still have faith in Tony Romo he just got to cut down the mistake and perform in the fourth quarter. Everyone said Peyton Manning couldn't win the big game for years. Romo just needs to turn adversity into ambition.

[First24]

Peyton's early career reputation was for not winning the big games.

Romo's current reputation is for losing the big games. IE.. throwing a interception; to arguably the best CB in the NFL, in the final minutes of the 4th. Dude shouldn't have even given it the thought of throwing at Revis in that situation. He had to have known Dez had no lift.

Romo's new reputation;
Heart, Guts, Tough!

winner? jury is still out.

[Spade]

Tell the rest of the team to stop its game up along with Tony Romo and then you could add winner. It's not just Tony Romo.

Steelers!!

Nice win by the boys....Romo is fighting through adversity
