But still here we are, Romo was God and completely blameless for anything. It's alllll someone else's fault.

Like hell. Danny White was the poor man's Danny White. Romo was the 70 million dollar Danny White.

Those stats aren't what I'm critical of, as you well know. It's the whole shitting the bed at the worst possible time part, then it's all nyuk-nyuk afterword. I never saw anyone talk about how Romo hated losing, because clearly he didn't. Coming back to this old saw, because it's simply not...

His whole body of work can accurately be summed up by that Denver game. Shooting it out pass for pass with Manning, until near the end when it hurts the most and cannot be recovered from, he shits the bed. He chokes. That's his legacy in a nutshell. And after that at the end of the game what...

He was a what me worry nyuk-nyuk small town boy made good and never got Aikman serious. Much less Staubach serious. He just didn't seem to take it seriously, it was just a game to him and stayed that way. He never seemed to mind losing it was all oh well we'll get 'em next time. There never...

If losing was the worst thing to happen...

This exact thing was a hallmark of both Landry and Johnson's defensive philosophies. Stop touchdowns.

It's a perception I and many others share. That doesn't make it a fact.

NOTE: I've split this from the "Time to move on from Dez" thread. Mostly to remove all of this off-topic stuff, and partly to give these posts their own thread. I'm the dumbass who derailed the thread by bringing Romo up when I knew better than to do that. I don't know anyone who does. But it's...

You're saying Dak=Weeden? You have a screw loose. LOL We should compare a 4th round 2nd year guy to the very best days and seasons of a multi-year veteran? And without mentioning that same veteran had strings of games where he couldn't compete at a high level for whatever reason? ALL...

That's why "accuracy" is very relative.

Funny you should say that. Staubach: 57 percent completion rate, 7.7 yds per attempt. Aikman: 61.5 percent completion rate, 7.0 yds per attempt. 5 Lombardis between them though. The point I'm making is, "accuracy" is very relative.

God Dammit gimme Kenny the Snake and some fucking BOMB throwing! Oh wait... 59 percent completion percentage and 7.4 yds per attempt, lifetime for Stabler. Soooo... Gimme ROMO back! Oh wait.... we have that in Dak! Romo was 65 percent completion percentage and 7.9 yds per attempt, lifetime...

I'm more optimistic on the defense this season than I've been in years past. But not by a lot.

Jimmy had no answers for the run-and-shoot, and he details this in his book, which you should read. It's only a coincidence that he and Butch Davis figured out how to scheme against the run and shoot type offenses, in the same offseason that Haley was acquired. It wasn't Haley who made that...

Correct! And if memory serves, the only Cowboy left who played in Texas Stadium.

To this I would add that 2016 was more a result of the totally new offense, with the loss of Romo and the addition of Zeke. Opponents had NO book on the new QB, RB or offensive tendencies. I think most of us here have even said this, and don't mind hearing it again and again and it does bear...

I originally had it right. But, I let all those 8s and 9s confuzzle me!

From the article linked in the tweet: You just KNEW he was a fat lazy piece of shit. Another fucking lout we need to make an example of by CUTTING IMMEDIATELY.

Dagnabbit, I'm wrong again! Thanks for the sharp eye - I definitely looked at the wrong schedule, we open REGULAR season on 9/9 and preseason on 8/9. 08 DAYS 06 HRS 08 MINS 48 SECS From now. Still plenty of time for Scot to get his shit together and go to the game and SUPPORT JERRY!
