Congrats to the Cards. Everything that went wrond, pretty much did. A Tony Romo fumble not called, Cowboys won 2 challenges, and losing the coin toss to open overtime. They overcame all the odds.:woot:

Name on QB who can handle the pressure that was put up by the Cards DL today? Romo did what he could, can't remember how many times Romo flushed out of the pocket 2 steps into his drop, pressure all game.

Vince Young? :y220a::y220a:

Now his Cowboys teams are juggernauts but again seem to lose the biggest games. Then again, that seemed to be a problem even when Parcells was coaching them.

Why does Wade Phillips get a free pass, but Pete Carroll is always scrutinized for his time with the Jets and Pats?

I've said it once, I'll say it again: this loss is SQUARELY on the shoulders of the offensive line, for reasons that have already been mentioned throughout this thread.

This is what I'm talking about. Romo didn't really do anything well today and benefited from multiple great plays by receivers including a 70 yard dump off to Barber. He fumbled 3 times, had 2 controversial non-fumbles, had multiple dropped interceptions by the Cardinals, and routinely widely missed receivers. Sure, if you look at his QB rating it looks good, but he was absoltutely horrible today.

The elite QBs take a beating, hold onto the football, and make plays when they are available. Romo fumbles the ball, throws interceptions, and gets shaken up when he faces pressure.

Flozell was getting owned all game. Romo was not the reason we lost today... Romo doesnt play special teams.. Or defense..

Its not his job to discipline this team.. Wade Phillips is a JOKE!!!

I don't think you got my point.



Bills fans really don't have much business calling out the Boys for not being clutch, not after last year's MNF game. :wink:

Must...avoid...another...infraction...

Were you saying the same things about Tom Brady when your G-men pressured him into looking like just another qb in the Super Bowl?
