Too bad his collar bone healed...


Week 1: Cowboys 24 Jets 27

Romo has lost the last 6 games he's started
I’m sorry, I thought Wade Phillips was fired last season. This team choked in the same way that Wade’s teams choked last season. Choked hard on the hog. Tony Romo may have proven once and for all that he will never live up to his superfluous expectations. He has failed, often miserably, in too many big games… and yes, this was a huge game.

The Jets were one of the best teams in the NFL last year, and should be again this year. We have a matchup of the Ryan brothers and this was the Cowboys first game after a terrible 2010, with Jason Garrett completely in control. They outplayed the Jets for the entire game, and then Romo literally handed the game back to the Jets. How do you toss a 64 yard pass to Witten and get to the Jets 2 yard line and then fucking fumble that away? Sorry Tony, you’re not a kid anymore, you’re supposed to be a grown ass man. You’re a veteran in you’re 30’s now. Tuck that ball away, slide on the ground. Do anything but what you did.

Then, after your defense gets your back and forces a Jets turnover,  what do you do?  Foolishly and arrogantly try to force the ball to Dez Bryant whose being guarded by the best receiver in football? I know Dez had been performing well earlier in the game but that is just fucking stupid.

Also, good teams don’t have things like getting punts blocked happen to them. That’s just childish. The Cowboys look like they will be a hell of a lot more competitive than last year, but it won’t matter if we have a quarterback who continuously blunders about in big moments and it won’t matter if we have a team that still “shrinks in the moment” and blows 4th quarter leads. Talk is cheap Red J…results determine your worth.
