Syrinx Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Wow. Yesterday was a slap in the face to this "homer". The play calling is inexplicable. The two throws at the end?? Where the hell was Barber in the second half? And Romo is going backwards quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's regression because he's not being coached properly. For a bright future, we need to lose early and make the coaching change. Let Garrett prove that he's not ready to be a head coach and hopefully we can get a real coach next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rush Cocky Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 QUOTE (liquidcrystalcompass @ Oct 5 2009, 12:05 PM) Unravelling faster than I thought. I want us to lose early so we can go ahead with the inevitable firing of Wade. The Cowboys have no direction. I had picked you guys to lose that one anyway. I took some heat at work for that pick, but hey, I'm gloating today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And let me know when youve given up on Romo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syrinx Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 I don't know. Something changed with Romo over the last season and a half. And I don't blame it all on TO! He has lost that fun-loving, devil may care attitude - probably because he took so much heat over it in the media. He doesn't look like he is having fun anymore. And I think this has affected his play. The emphasis on not making mistakes, while well intentioned, has neutered his creative playmaking. They are making him stay in the pocket, yet most of his memorable plays, including the last minute pass to Sam Hurd against the Broncos, occur when he is scrambling and innovating on the run. Not sure if it is Garrett or the invisible quarterbacks coach Wade Wilson (what the heck has he been up to), but someone has to guide Romo to a middle ground where he can still play the way he did when he became the starter, while also cutting down on stupid mistakes. I think he is still a great quarterback who has had his game cut out from under him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dbl-Strk Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Romo, Romo, Romo!!! Not the start we all were all hoping for! Normally he doesn`t play this bad until the playoffs!! All this poor decision making, throwing the ball behind, or out of the reach of WIDE OPEN recievers, and then going to the bench and pouting has to stop! Go do it on someone else`s team!! And is it me.....but will Jason Whitten ever try to run....maybe a little...when he makes a catch!! I`m hard on my boys, but we aren`t going to make it far at all this year, playing this way!! What do the rest of the Cowboy-Rush fans out there think??? ya`ll take care! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metaldad Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 All i can say is About a whole lot of things that went wrong. This is going to get ugly very soon if they [Romo] do not get their act together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant believe this is the same onwer who once hired Jimmy Johnson. Yeah, he hired JJ, and then replaced him with Switzer. A team takes on the personality of it's coach, and this team is uninspired and sloppy. Get Cowher or Holmgren in here NOW. Holmgrens QB's have somebody in their ear the moment they come off the field. There's no time to pout, they immediately get to work on what there is to correct or take advantage of. And I aint too happy with Redball right now either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's an idiotic puppet that stands on the sidelines with a befuddled look while dreaming of fishing and eating guacamole burgers. The apple didn't fall too far from the tree.

You guys have needed a fire under your ass since 1996. I don't think either of the people in this discussion were here then. And if you want to make the numbers argument, then fine. Because Jon Kitna had "better numbers" than Tony Romo when he came to Dallas. Yet he's the backup. And for good reason, because despite "the numbers" he screwed up at critical points in a ballgame and snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. Just like I see Romo doing.

It will be a roller coaster down here until Stephen Jones takes over. He's the sensible one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
