“Too much was asked of him”
I don’t know if asking for less than three interceptions is too much. Had Romo accomplished as much as Christian Ponder, for example and for God’s sake, they might’ve won.
The first interception was a wrong route by Ogletree...you can see he bunched up with Witten and did not go where Romo expected him to.
The second, Witten backed up into Romo as he was throwing. Why was the tight end getting backed up, you ask? Because they were getting pressure from 5 linemen...again. Why throw such a long ball under such pressure? Aske their fired coach.
Third, completely Romo’s fault. He thought the guy was blitzing, and instead he fell back into coverage. To make matters worse, Romo sailed it in, a very slow ball.
I’m not a Romo aplogistall I am saying is Dallas is the type of team that needs a quarterback to shoulder all of the load. Another example is the Colts. Their one year without a Manning or Luck demonstrates how one dimensional they are. Well, Romo isn’t that type of quarterback...but most aren’t. All I am saying is find somebody else who is better and available...then Romo can go. If Dallas fans don’t heed this advice, say hello to Michael Vick! or worse!
The Packers defense is as bad as the Cowboys.
