A f-ing tool that even after the 5 picks still has more yards, TD's and a higher QB rating than Jason Campbell.

Well at least you hit the TOOL on the head. If he keeps up the GREAT JOB he did last night not for long!

In the LONG run we have a MUCH more COMPLETE QB for the future THAN YOUR homo.

That's cool, but I'm fairly certain that you'll never see Campbell do everything humanly possible to give a game away.

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".

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.

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!!!!!

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!!!

Timeline:

0:24 seconds - Romo passes to Crayton at the goal line and Crayton slips in for the touchdown. Cowboys call timeout.

0:20 seconds - Romo underthrows Terrell Owens and Jabari Greer rips the ball from Owens hands. (2pt conversion fail)

0:18 seconds - Rookie kicker Nick Folk executes an onside kick 11 yards up the field where Sam Hurd deflects the ball to team mate Tony Curtis for a Cowboys recovery.

0:07 seconds - Romo passes to Barber on a 4 yard sideline pass.

0:02 seconds - On 3rd down Romo connects with Patrick Crayton who runs out of bounds after an 8 yard gain to the Buffalo 35 yard line.

0:01 seconds - Rookie Kicker Nick Folk nails the game winning 53 yarder.

So there you go, check it out on ESPN.COM or NFL.COM

BUt it was 2 scores in 24 seconds.

I heard this from a Cowboys fan in the bar the other night and couldn't agree with him more.

He was telling me that the second Romo gets his contract, he's going to start pussing out. Look how he scrambles now, and sacrifices his body. The second he gets the big bucks, he'll shy away from contact, and that will have a significant impact on his game.

Honestly though, who are we really afraid of on Dallas' offense?

Jason Witten, and maybe Marion Barber.

They're over-rated... and I cannot wait until game day with them.

The Cowboys called a timeout after a TD? I thought the clocked stopped after every score?

Twenty-four seconds between scores is a little different than actually scoring two times in 24 seconds. The touchdown to Crayton was at the end of a two plus minute drive. It's not like the Cowboys got the ball after the Bills punt, and gained 80 yards and nine points in 24 seconds.

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.
