Week 10: (6-2) Dallas at (5-3) Green Bay

[bringbackjimmy]

I would like GB to become less predictable. It seems we run a lot on first down and then pass after that. I would like to see a play action pass on first down once in a while.

And Romo didn't have a very good day no matter what that homer BringBack says.

Romo threw the pick in the EZ. A lot of his completions/yards came in garbage time when the game was over.

Rodgers was under just as much pressure and AR put together a 15 play/80 yard drive that GB actually scored on.

And....Has anyone heard from RayMan. I'm starting to worry about him. I'd call 911, but I don't know where to send them.

Where did i say Romo have a good day? stating facts that it wasn't Romo's fault we loss is not saying he had a good game. If the D makes some stops on 3rd and long and Roy does his fucking job we wouldn't be talking about blaming Romo..

If Romo doesn't throw a pick in the EZ, if he doesn't fumgble, if, if , if. He shared in the loss. He was partially responsible, you groan miester you.

 

[Derrville]

Lol @ Romo being blamed again.

that fumble was recovered and should have been ruled down(another bad call in GB favor, like Rodgers fumble that was overturned on a terrible hands to the face penalty)... Yeah that pick was a bad move, but to blame that for the loss is BS. If it came when the cowboys were going in for the lead/tie thats one thing, but your down 17 with like 5 mins left and your D can't get off the field the game was over.

 

[bringbackjimmy]

were still 6-3 and 2 games ahead of the eagles and a game ahead of the Giants. Not to mention we got the Redskins and Raiders to finish up the month so we should be 8-3 going into December.

Romo still has a serious problem with staring down his receivers from the snap of the ball. He did it on the pick to Witten and he did it time and time again throughout the course of the game.

Miles Austin is the only reason why Romo was seemingly improving. Romo, and the Cowboys offense, drastically improved once they realized that Miles Austin is a threat every time he touches the ball. He was making Romo look good by flat out beating DB's who tried to man up with him or breaking tackles underneath for huge gains.

In the past two weeks, the Eagles and Packers rolled coverage towards Austin's side or even doubled up on him with over/under coverage which is why Romo has been looking to Williams and Witten a lot more. Even still, he threw balls into 2 man coverage more than a few times yesterday because he doesn't consistently go through his progressions.

I've said it numerous times this season already and Romo really hasn't gotten any better at it. Pay attention to how he locks on to his primary target and often forces passes into coverage even after buying time to avoid pressure.

The Cowboys have a running game, an elite TE, an elite WR and a solid WR2 yet Romo still struggles against every decent defense he goes up against.

He hasn't played awful this year and I don't think he cost the Cowboys the game yesterday but his numbers are seriously inflated because of the success he's had against bad teams this season:

Teams below .500:
W @ TB - 16/27, 353 yards, 3 TDs, 0 INT, 140.6.
W Vs. CAR - 22/33, 255 yards, 0 TD, 0 INT, 89.6.
W @ KAN - 20/34, 351 yards, 2 TD, 0 INT, 113.7.
W Vs. SEA - 21/36, 256 yards, 3 TD, 0 INT, 108.1.

Totals = 79/130 (60%), 1215 yards (303ypg), 8 TD, 0 INT, 113.0 QBR.

Teams above .500:
L Vs. NYG - 13/29, 127 yards, 3 INT, 1 TD, 29.6.
L @ DEN - 25/42, 252, 1 INT, 0 TD, 67.1.
* W Vs. ATL - 21/29, 311 yards, 3 TD, 0 INT, 141.6.
W @ PHI - 21/34, 307 yards, 1 INT, 1 TD, 88.7.
L @ GNB - 24/39, 251 yards, 1 INT, 1 TD. 78.0.

*Totals = 83/144 (57%), 937 yards (234ypg), 6 INT, 3 TD, 65.85.

* Romo's stats Vs. ATL weren't included in totals because I wanted to strengthen my point and Romo's numbers in that game are so good that they made it look like Romo is doing alright against teams above .500 when he has actually struggled drastically in comparison to his play vs. teams above .500. Not to mention Atlanta has one of the worst pass defenses in the league, anyway.

I'm not blaming Romo specifically for any losses but the point here is that Romo needs to be much more consistent and stop turning the ball over so much against good teams or the Cowboys are not going to be much better than a .500 ball club.

He has played great against shitty teams and average or below against decent teams and the bottom line is that championship teams have big game QBs and/or elite defenses and right now Romo is not a big game quarterback and the Cowboys defense is not playing at an elite level.

How can the Cowboys expect to win a playoff game if Romo is proven to be mediocre at best against most of the good teams he has faced?

 

[bringbackjimmy]

I am not counting the Atlanta game, because i want to strengthen my point of view... At least you a honest hater...

He has 1 good WR 1 avg WR(crayton) and 3 scrubs(one thats making a shit load of cash). how bout you take out the Giants game and put the falcons game? If you take out his best you have to take out his worst. Blind Hate

not counting both NYG and ATL:70/115(61%),810(270),2TD, 3Int, 77.1

Haters are haters and they will bend the facts untill they look right...How bout every good game Romo has ever had get thrown out so you guys can actaully say he sucks.... remember it's only a big game if tony loses. Not once did i hear people saying tony won a big game when we beat the eagles last week, but if he lost it would have been all over SC why can't Romo win the big games. How bout Tony winning 13 straight games in November? How bout Tony being the only cowboys QB to win in Lambeau...

 

[Derrville]

Haters are gonna hate.

 

[kmanharris]

Romo's interception wasn't a case of locking onto Witten, it was a case of it being a horrid throw. He threw it way the fuck behind Witten when if he threw it in front it would have been a TD.

 

[nflman2033]

Haters are gonna hate.

as someone who owns a Romo jersey please don't call me a hater

You can say this about any QB in the league not named Peyton or Brady.


Anyway...

Was pissed on Sunday, but now I'm kind of "meh" about it.

Garrett reverted back to has pass-happy ways in a game that did not call for it (reminiscent of the Washington game last year). Watching that first drive, I got the vibe of "Okay, Barber's looking like he's got his strength back, they should feed the three-headed monster all day. No reason to ask Romo to win this game". But, of course, Garrett abandoned the run.

It's my opinion that he panicked when Columbo broke his leg, but who's to say for sure? But when your star players (Namely, your All-Pro TE), the opposing DC (Capers, who knows Garrett well) and even your receivers are saying you became one-dimensional, you know you fucked up.

Nearly every facet of the team was atrocious in this game. The injuries just make it hurt more. Screw Hamlin, he hasn't done a damn thing so far, but this Columbo thing could have the same effect that Kosier's injury last year had. I like Doug Free a hell of a lot more than Cory Proctor, but the line seems to have major issues when a starter goes down.

Also, not the reason we lost, but good God, was that terrible officiating by Jeff Tripplette and his crew. Goodell needs to stop with this overseas bullshit and focus on fixing the officiating back home, which is worse than ever.

lol @ blaming this one on Romo. Members of the offense were apologizing to him after the game for playing so shitty. The INT was a bad throw, but once again it was a situation where he shouldn't have even been passing in the first place. I'll still take him over Rodgers every day and twice on Sunday. When I said Rodgers needs to get his record over .500, I meant career. Come talk shit to me then, bucky.

Love it. We just won four games in a row, one of which was a huge division game in a hostile environment where we laid an egg last year, and the very next week we lose a tough game in Lambeau freakin' Field, where we've won ONCE in our history (That was Tony Romo, too BTW), and we suck again and our QB is once again branded a choker even though his offensive coordinator fucked him over again. Nice.



I think this team is gonna come out as pissed off as it's been all year and whale on Washington next week. That is all for now.

Hey RayMan....Take the panties off and put on some boxers. I said GB won against a QUALITY TEAM. Quite being such a little girl.
