When Wade Phillips took hands on control of the D they started to kick ass. So Garrett bears some blame. If he gets credit when they do well, then he gets the arrows too. Romo's been taking his fair share of heat and he's only 3 years in as starter so he's still got some wet behind his ears. T.O. is probably gone and that's OK, though I think they can win with him. Patrick Crayton seems to a troublemaker too. Very few QBs do well in year 1. Dan Marino, Tom Brady of course (with zero expectations), etc., much less by year 3. We'll see. I think Garrett's got a lot of moxie and smarts. I think Romo's upside outweighs his downside. T.O.... meh. The players play no doubt or screw up, but coaching also matters.

T.O. also deserves the lack of throws until he quits dropping far too many passes that hit him that bad spot he calls his hands.

Against the good teams you get X number of chances, if you blow those chances by throwing an interception, fumbling or just dropping the pass...that's the difference between a team that wins and guys who aren't in the playoffs like the Cowboys. If you go back to last Sunday and looked at the game, Dallas was moving the ball pretty well, but they would inevitably self destruct...and that isn't Garret's fault. Throwing up an interception just before the half isn't the coordinator's fault. Leaders take responsibility even when it isn't exactly their fault...because they are leaders. Romo isn't one...at least not now he's not.

I won't cry if he goes, but they better replace him with someone who can catch and run.

Every team the guy touches ends up going to hell - it can't be coincidence. And I agree that most good WR's are prima-donnas (with exceptions, like Steve Smith, Marvin Harrison, and others), but this guy is pure poison. Sorry man, but I’m with Outlaw on this one.

I honestly think in Dallas he's getting a bit of a raw deal -- not that he hasn't earned the lack of the benefit of the doubt. Almost every WR in today's game is a prima donna. They all complain about not getting the ball. The way the league is structured and marketed -- that's how they get paid. I think the T.O., Jason Witten, Tony Romo thing was way overblown too. As long as he's catching the ball I like him. They weren't throwing to him so he was right -- even if obnoxious about it. T.O. -- hated the old one; seems to have been mostly a positive here -- even with the suicide attempt. (ed. Wow! Never thought I'd say those words.) Rich… T.O. I honestly think in Dallas he’s getting a bit of a raw deal — not that he hasn’t earned the lack of the benefit of the doubt.

I thought for a while there he may have seen the light, but when the chips were down he showed his true colors. Hell, Tom Landry benched Drew Pearson for spiking the ball between his legs after a touchdown. The Cowboys only hope right now is for Zombie Tom Landry to come back and coach. Here's an article that may be of some interest from the Fort Worth Star Telegram about Romo...I couldn't agree with this guy more. Especially the part about him being Mister Smirky after they got their asses handed to them. http://www.star-telegram.com/332/story/1119355.html T.O. is an idiot, he wouldn’t be playing on the Cowboys if Tom Landry were the coach.

That is just ridiculous, for someone to suggest that...and sop totally ignorant of what is actually occurring. IDIOTS.
