My prediction.......Cowboys over Vikes by a touchdown

[snkpoct137]

looks like Tony Romo is going all Tony Romo again.

[cardinal]

Well...that didn't go over too well to say the least.

[booth9919]

I am sorry Boys fans I wold you this was going to happen

[SinatraKing]

AAAAAAGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
Where in the Heck was our O Line????? After Flozel goes out, its like the protection just stopped. Our Defense was the only thing working, and they even missed key plays. Not even ONE touchdown, and we should have had at least two. Congrats to the Vikes, I guess next year we will win two Playoff Games, and then lose the NFC Championship. Baby steps. Next week, I cheer for the........hhhmmmmm.

I just finished crying... That was terrible! The line stunk! Romo made awful decisions! AND we the kicker missed twice! Can anyone kick a field goal? Let's draft a kicker 1st round. We'll win 3 games from it.

Flozell Adams is the NFL's most overrated LT, and BY FAR the league's cheapest player. (Just watch his karate trip kick to the leg of Justin Tuck, a star player that beat him ALL game. That was the only way Flozell knew how to stop him and it took Tuck out for multiple games I believe.)

And I wouldn't necessarily say they're defense was working. Terrence Newman and Mike Jenkins were getting burned like it was their job.

P.S. - Jason Witten layed a sweet block on Jared Allen on that Romo fumble play

[sebredsox24]

The Cowboys released Ken Hamlin and Flozell Adams. Flo had a rough last couple years. He had trouble getting his hands on the speed rushers and that eventually did him in. Hopefully the Cowboys start adding players in this free agency period, rather than just releasing them...

Wrote my first article for my new site. It's called Romo Haters Have It All Wrong. Cowboys fans check it out and let me know what you think.

[aceecards]

Here is where your fault is

Romo hasnt WON anything

Aikman 3 titles
Staubach 2

Romo Zero

and winning is EVERYTHING in the NFL

The only time Romo was close to winning anything important, he bumbled a snap for a FG and they lost..

End of story, no more stats needed!

and I'm a COWBOY Hater not a romo hater

[mjda]

Romo hasnt WON anything

Like I said in the article, quarterbacks don't win championships on their own. Look at the teams that those guys had around them. Romo has only had a decent running game once, when they were 1 Murray fumble, or Dez dropped pass (he caught it) away from the NFC championship game. He's also never had a defense even remotely close to any of the Dallas Super Bowl defenses.

sorry, dont buy it.

Roger staubach was a leader who inspired greatness from his teammates.

Romo doesnt inspire his teammates, seems like a me first player on the field!

...and you know what's happening on the field by watching the plays on TV?

Look, read the article and you'll know that I'm not saying that Romo is definitely the best quarterback to ever wear the star. My point is simply that the haters who say that he's the only reason the Cowboys haven't won a Super Bowl as of late are just in denial. The entire team is terrible. Romo has actually been one of the most consistent players on the team, in terms of production. Outside of Demarcus Ware and Jason Witten, he might be at the top of the list. He certainly deserves a spot in the discussion when you're talking about who the best quarterback for the Cowboys was/is.

I am sure we could make a case (stat wise) that eddie lebaron and dandy don meredith should be included in the greatest of all time too.

Again my issue is Greatness in the NFL is measured by championships won. those are the guys who go down in the annals of NFL lore.

Sadly until Romo etches his name on the Lombardi trophy he will just be a good QB

also, i hate all Cowboys.. i just dont pick on romo!

So you would have the same argument when talking about Dan Marino? Also, by your own argument, Brad Johnson and Trent Dilfer are to be considered a couple of the best to ever play the position? I'm sorry, but that argument just doesn't make any sense.

Like I said, quarterbacks don't win Super Bowls. Teams do, and most of the time the team that wins does so behind a pretty dang good defense.

My team is the Lions, we dont have either, making the playoffs is like a Super Bowl win to us

no..

Its not a one extreme to the others.

You know the greats just like i do , hall of fame careers doted with a championship or two or 4 or 6

Brady, manning, Favre, Aikman, Bradshaw, Staubach, Montana, Unitas, Starr, Otto Graham, Baugh. Im sure im missing a few but those come instantly to mind leaders, champions, they got it done .

Many folks won championships heck Joe namath won one and is in the hof but he was no better than mediocre for the better part of his career. some like Joe had the careers cut short by injury, others had one brief shining moment (mark rypien) Dont make them great , dont even make them memorable.

Now your boy is down again 6-10 weeks. Injuries dont quite get the job done either. its an unfortunate thing but it is part of the game. Romo is a "good " qB, I dont think he will ever rise above that class!

ou live in titletown and have those dreaded red wings

[Rabs]

Romo is consistent at getting injured, so he's at least got that going for him!
