Romo will be setting up a new business venture this offseason:

"Tony Romo's Chrome Removal: Now Specializing in Trailer Hitches"

What about his part time job: Golf ball recovery with a specialty in the Garden Hose technique?

Ah, damn, it was like a game before when I saw that.

Oh well, that's still taking a LOT of chances with the ball.

I love when he scrambles and just HEAVES it up for grabs.

funny stuff guys . . . i always thought romo didnt have what it takes to be a great nfl quarterback (few do) and was happy that the cowboys were putting their faith and success in his hands but half way thru this year i was starting to think i was wrong and maybe he is better than i thought making the cowboys a team to contend with.

thankfully, i wasnt wrong. he is inconsistent and takes too many risks.

funny quote from the booth guys yesterday "he doesnt throw it away when hes outside the pocket under pressure but does when hes in the pocket with no pressure".

I choked on a bone before, but it is nothing compared to how much Romo choked in the playoffs lol.

So if you think that about Romo then what do you think about JC. 12 tds 11 ints 60% completion and around 70 QB ranking? Romo was 36TDs 18 ints 64 completion and around 97 QB ranking.

Why does someone always have to bring this sort of thing up when we're having fun at a Cowboys expense??

Are you a closet Cowboys fan or do you just enjoy pissing on the parade?

Have fun, relax, and try some Cowboy bashing. It's good for the Redskin soul.

TheMalcolmConnection · 01-14-2008, 04:58 PM

No shit, we're giving Campbell a break because he's kind of had a little less NFL experience than Romo.

SmootSmack · 01-14-2008, 04:58 PM

The word Redskins in the URL should be a tip-off of what team this message board is primarily about.

Look, we all know Campbell has his areas where he needs improvement. And I'm sure all of us would rather be gloating over a Skins' win over the Cowboys, instead of the Giants winning. We're not ignorant to that.

But a little sense of humor never hurt anyone

TheMalcolmConnection · 01-14-2008, 04:59 PM

And again, it's because Campbell is a Redskin and Romo is a Cowboy.

Then on another play, he had rolled out of the pocket but failed to throw the ball away (which would not have been intentional grounding) and instead took a huge sack. You could tell he was rattled and wasn't using his head.

Schneed that is an excellent point, my brother noticed that too, that seems to be the one big critism of Tony Romo.
