Right, we're unrealistic because we expect a fucking 50 million dollar quarterback not to fumble a FG snap in a playoff game, and not to regularly piss games away with his 4th quarter turnovers your chart doesn't count because a "comeback" is when the team actually wins. Romo gets credit for 20...

I merely ordered myself to start a thread for we Romo haters to tell why. The Romo lover thread is over there ------->

This is for the haters, you Romo apologists and defenders. My moment when I finally realized this dude was always, ever gonna choke. (No, the 2008 choke pick against Pittsburgh didn't wake me up, I was still a Romosapien apologist back then) 9/11/2011 vs. the Jets. First game of the season and...

He's "clutch" only in the most broad definition of the word.

:facepalm

Of all the coaches mentioned NONE of them have done what Garrett has done. The evil sports press NEVER gives Garrett any credit at all. He is the ONLY coach out of all of those, to have frozen his own kicker - and not one mention of that in this biased article.:twisted

The two million in salary cap relief if they release him and he retires. From the article.

I'd love to see it. I'd love to see that and the staff and roster purge which would result.

Wishful and wistful thinking, but there's no way I see Gruden in Dallas with Jerry.

That I have no idea, we would have to ask.

Okay, now I understand this. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap2000000365392/article/kyle-orton-to-be-released-by-dallas-cowboys He's going to retire.

He can report to camp and save himself millions in fines, then sit on the bench all season fulfilling his contract. I see nothing at all which would compel Jerry to give up his advantage here by cutting him.

You can fine his ass off while keeping him on the roster and then not play him at all, much less cap hit than cutting him is.

:rolfanim And look! The Edmund Fitzgerald even came up off the bottom of fucking lake Erie, to get back to Cleveland too!

Don't we wish.

That and the cap hit is why you don't cut him.

Yep and they didn't worry about starters getting hurt. They worried about shaking the rust off and getting good at playing, conditioning, and so on.

Plus, back then it wasn't a common practice at all, resting starters in preseason. Nothing like it is now. Author is applying today's practices to 40 frikkin years ago.

Yep.

The front office was in total disarray too, at least according to Jimmy as he wrote in his book. To the point where office staffers still had company cars, years after they were no longer employed, longtime former employees still had free season tickets, and so on. The TV deal was a rape, all...
