ncskinsfanec 10-09-2007, 04:04 PM I can't stand that little punk Romo, words can't describe how overrated and arrogant he is. I hope he flames out again this season like he did last season. My best memory of Romo so far is when he fumbled that snap on the field goal attempt last season against Seattle. That was classic! I hope last night was a sign of things to come! For just next Sunday at least I'll say, GO PATRIOTS!!!!!
jdlea 10-09-2007, 04:04 PM I was shocked that Romo threw so many picks too, but the Bills played this guy exactly the way I would have played him. Dropping as many guys into coverage as possible. He's great on the move and outside the pocket, I say spy him and make in stay in the pocket and beat you with his arm. If you still manage to stop the run while doing this (never easy) you'll be set. Unless Barber starts then it's not that tough to believe that this could work.
That's the gameplan everyone started using last year, first it was: put pressure on the young guy, then it became: confuse him with your coverages and it worked. He looked mediocre at best down the stretch and that's why. For the life of me I couldn't figure out why so many teams felt the need to keep bringing heat, he's a shifty guy who can make you miss and still complete passes, pressure doesn't phase him enough, so I say, go with exotic coverages.
ncskinsfanec 10-09-2007, 04:05 PM You misunderstand my intention. I'm not one of the people that tries to act like "Romo sucks" simply because he's a Cowboy, but I was fairly certain that he would come back down to Earth at some point this season, and it appears that it happened last night. Of course I don't expect him to have another five pick game, but he's also not the second coming of Brett Favre like the media seems to think.
And as far as scoring twice in 20 seconds; it was actually once in 2+ minutes, and then a 19 yard drive after an onside kick. Do that against New England and I'll be impressed.
He couldn't carry Favre's jockstrap!

WERD...I can't wait until the Patriots finally drive a big stake into the heart of that vampire that is the Cowboys...DIE, COWBOYS, DIE!!!
TheMalcolmConnection 10-09-2007, 04:12 PM You are 100% correct, because Gibbs would have pulled Campbell after the 3rd or 4th INT instead of maintaining faith in his QB.
Say what you want, he had the worst possible game a QB could ever have, EXCEPT for the fact that even though he was playing crappy, even though he almost single handedly gave the game away, when the game was on the line he still drove his team downfield for 2 scores in 20 seconds to win.
Say what you want, but nothing diminishes that fact.
There are only a very small handful of QB's in the league that have that type of "moxy".
I wouldn't chalk it up to "moxy" so much as I would chalk it up to the Bills totally giving that game away.
I'm reading a lot about how the "Cowboys played better because they wanted it more." Sometimes, that's just total BS. If the Bills do the NON-IDIOT thing and run the ball and settle for the FG, that game is out of reach, but no, instead they try to pass and get a TD for NO reason.
The onside kicks, the coverage, I chalk it up to ineptitude on a magnificent scale to lose that game.

Actually something does diminish that fact...the Bills are 31st in total defense. Only 1 team is worse than the Bills, and they handled you well. That doesn't bode well for you.
Also, EVERY Qb has that kind of "moxy" or they wouldn't be a QB. Not hard to drive off the 2nd worst defense in the entire league.
Fact is, everyone is sucking Romo's nutts, when he has done nothing to deserve it. Campbell is a better QB and he doesn't get any publicity other than in the DC area...even then Romo gets more national attention than Campbell gets in his own town.
Campbell threw for almost 250 yards and 2 tds (no turnovers) with a bag of nutts and misfits thrown together at the last minute, you have one of the best receivers in the league and still he created 6 turnovers. Yet he is still exhaulted...wonder why that is? The media is elevating Romo to Manning / Brady type status, and there is no way he deserves it.
No one is saying he sucks...he doesn't. He's good...but not great.
railcon56 10-09-2007, 04:21 PM Sick or not, I need him for fantasy. He better not do that shit again the rest of the year, unless it's against Washington.
This is exactly why I don't like or participate in Fantasy...... There is no way I could cheer or wish that people like ROMO throw TD's or even do well..... It makes me sick to think about it...... The one year I did particpate was the year we went to the playoffs with Norvo... I had the Redskins Defense..All their QB's Even Backups...RB... ect ect...
Oh btw that year i lost in the Championship Rd.... 2nd out of 14....

Moxy?
For completing two five yard passes against the 32nd ranked defense (now 31st) at the end of the game to get into field goal position?
That = Moxy?
He should be buying the entire defense dinner, and slobbin' Folk's knob on command for the rest of the season.

Sorry Gibbs stands behind his QB as much as any coach I have ever seen. Brunell is a fine example as everyone was calling for the QB switch Gibbs stuck with him then finally made the switch about 1/2 way through the season.
jsarno 10-09-2007, 04:36 PM How can this be?! The Cowboys are ranked #3 in all the power rankings...I just don't understand it. Can power rankings be wrong?!
For some reason the media loves the Cowboys. They lose to a HORRIBLE team in the Bills and they are still loved and say what a comeback, when in fact, it was a collapse by the Bills. When the Cowpatties lose to the Patriots, they will say "well it's the patriots, they were supposed to lose", but if they win (huge if), then they will say it's the best team we've seen in a decade.
